IPod won't turn on without plugging it into the charger.

I have a 30gb iPod video and the problem is when my ipod is plugged into the wall charger it works fine. But once i take it out of the charger, the screen immediately turns off. It says my battery is fully charged when in the charger. I even have a car dock in my car and when I put the ipod on it, it works. Another thing is, when my ipod is connected to the usb port on my computer, it won't turn on. So the only way my ipod is functional is if its connected to the wall or in the car. Can someone PLEASE help me fix this problem. THANKS!

Sounds like you have a bad battery. It might need to be replaced. For some reason your usb port is not putting out enough to power it so there could be a short in the circuit also. It will need to be checked out. If it is under warranty contact apple. If it isn't do a search for iPod repairs on the net. There are some good places that can do the repairs cheaper than apple.

My iPod won't turn on after plugging it into my Xbox

Hello, my ipod doesn't seem to want to turn on. The only problems I've had with it were its battery which doesn't last as long anymore. But, the other day I plugged it into my Xbox just to listen to some music. It played it no problem, but I think the problem was that I left it plugged in for like a night and a day, and during that time my xbox was turned on and off and few times. I've tried just about everything I could find to fix it. Ex. holding Menu and Center button down, plugging it into my computer (my computer doesn't read it). I'm just wondering if it was my xbox that kind of ruined it. Does anyone know what I can do?

You've fully depleted the battery. Connect it to power (wall charger is best for this), charge it for at least 30 minutes, then reset it (hold down the center and menu buttons for 6 seconds) while it is still connected to power. Might take a few tries. When it revives fully charge it.

My ipod froze so I restarted it. it happened again, so I restarted it again, and it was fine but then it ran out of battery. Now when I plug it into the charger it, the Apple sign comes up for 5 seconds then that's it, it doesn't turn on. help please?

Is it not going to work again, or is ther something I can do? Please help.

I have the same problem, and my Ipod turned off (when I held the home and power button)
but then when I held down the home button (after turned off) nothing happened, the screen is still black.
Do you know what I should maybe do?
Thanks is advance

Power button doesn't work, phone turns off randomly, and then flashes the apple screen over and over until I plug it into the charger

I have the iPhone 4s through Sprint, running iOS6. The power button my phone doesn't do anything, it doesn't lock my phone, and holding it down does not turn off my phone. Randomly, the power off screen will come up, sometimes over and over and over again. Sometimes the lock screen does the same thing, and there have even been times when it screen captures my lockscreen. Also, my phone will randomly turn off even when the batter is around 50%, and then the apple screen flashes over and over (sometimes for hours when I'm at work) and will not fully turn back on until I plug it into the charger. I have not spilled anything on it. I have dropped it, a few days ago, but it has been acting like this for weeks. I also had the problem with my wifi, where it grayed out and I couldn't select it, but my wifi randomly started working again. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have the same prob

Connect iPhone to Wall Charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. If nothing, this means your iPhone has a hardware fault, most likely and hopefully battery.

My iphone5 unexpectedly quit working, it had 84% battery so that wasn't the problem. I plugged it into the charger and still no response. help

Is the phone turned off = quit working?
try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for your phone to boot back up.

I have an Iphone 3gs and today I had taken some pictures and my battery was 8% i was looking at the few I had took. Then my phone died but when I plugged it into the charger and got it on I went to upload the pictures but they were deleted!

Then my phone died but when I plugged it into the charger and got it on I went to upload the pictures but they were deleted! All my other pictures that i have taken are still there, it just deleted the ones I took a couple of hours before it died!
I was just wondering if there is anyway of getting them back at all? and how common is this?

Sounds like your iPhone was hacked to unlock and now updating locks back to the original carrier.
Where did you get the iPhone?

IPod won't turn on when plugged in

Hi, it's been about six months since I've last used my 10gb third gen iPod on my iBook G4. The iPod will not turn on at all, presumably because the battery is dead.
So I tried plugging it into my Windows PC (where I've transferred my music). I seem to have lost my firewire cable, so I borrowed a friend's USB cable (for his 4th gen iPod). When I connect the iPod to my PC, it still won't power on at all. Should I try finding or ordering a new cable, or is my iPod toast?

How can I reset my lock passcode without plugging it into the computer or restoring it or resetting any data?

I went I to my phone and I tried to unlock my passcode but it did not let me in, how can I reset my lock passcode without plugging it onto the computer on iTunes, or restoring it or deleting any data ?

You don't. The only way to remove the passcode if forgotten is to restore the device. If you have a backup, you can restore to that last backup, but anything done since that last backup would be lost.Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

Hi Gammer576775!
Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue with your iPod touch:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting

Will not power on, or will not turn on unless connected to power
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Connect the iPod touch to an Apple USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if the display turns on and…
The home screen appears, the device should be working. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen: . Then disconnect the device from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears even after the iPod touch has charged for at least 20 minutes: See the "iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or low-battery image appears , continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPod touch did not turn on, reset it while connected to an Apple USB power adapter. If the display turns on, go to step 4.If the display remains black, go to the next step.
Restore the device. Connect it to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes it and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPod touch. If the device doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring it, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPod touch resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring it did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

My I pad 3 will not come on no matter what I do and it was working until I plugged it into the charger.

I've tried plugging and unplugging the charger, holding both buttons in for ten seconds. Even took it to cell phone repair and they couldn't get it to come alive. Any ideas?

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
