Itunes never shows the battery level as charged.
left the shuffle connected overnight yet the battery level indicator in itunes remains a charging thunderbolt. any clue what gives? don't have the issue with the classic.
hmmm ... apparently an itunes glitch: it failed to notice when the other ipod was sated as well (the classic is a bit easier than the shuffle to independently determine its battery status). seems to be a random failure as for the last couple connections, the battery status for the shuffle was updated.

ITunes never shows the word "device" so, I cannot backup, sync etc
I rarely plug into iTunes, update, sync because iTunes does not show the word "Device" and does not show an icon for my device. I cannot find help no this topic under the help topic and it is becoming so time consuming as I am pretty much iPhone iTunes dumb. Can someone help. I don't even know whether I will be able to find my way back to this community. So, if someone has an response and they don't get a thank you from me it is because I am lost in the system. Very frustrating. My email addy is [email protected].if someone finds me..

My ipods battery keeps saying its fully charged but its not and i tried reseting it and the problem still persits
It may just be giving you false battery info. Unless it actually dies prematurely, Its just a software error. I would recommend restoring. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414

My question is what if I have troubleshooted with holding the sleep/awake button and power and it's not changing to any other screen what should I do? It doesn't even show the battery strength wheither its completely dead or charging at all.
- If you did not charge the iPod for a couple of hours before you did the reset then charege and reset:
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then connect to your computer and if iTunes sees the iPod restore via iTunes.
- Next see if recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. -
I am unable to tell when the battery is completely charged. I have showing the battery symbol with the bolt-this is present even when the device is not being charged. And it is always showing 2% charge.
Are you using the AC wall charger?
To check status, I use System Activity Monitor app http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/system-activity-monitor/id306192663?mt=8 and System Status Lite app http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/system-status-lite-device/id407752428?mt=8

I recently purchased a 13" MacBook Pro. On my first boot up, the battery charged to 100%. I didn't operate this thing on the battery. The next time I booted this thing up, the battery was charged but the meter read 98%. In the subequent boot ups of this machine, and I still having not used the battery, my battery is fully charged but the meter now reads 96%. IS there some problem with the hardware or the software? Help is appreciated!!
Thanks.hey thank you for the info. Based on what happened, the battery has gone up to 100% just once when I booted this machine for the first time. On subsequent occasions the Battery Charged symbol has appreard at below 100% charging. I have been using my MacBook Pro for the whole day with outlet power and never did the battery go back to 100%. I hope I don't have to calibrate the battery on this model?

I just bought my macbook pro and it's charged up to 100% and is still plugged in but now shows the battery at 98%. How is this possible when it's plugged in to the charger and the green light is on?
The system regularly lets the battery drop to about 95% when on the charger, then recharges to 100%. This lets the batery exercise "just a little" all of the time and saves the recharge curcuits from overuse.
Regualr occurence for me.
Also ... you need to let your battery work at least once per month. Let it run down to 40%, but not less if you can at all avoid it. Running thr battery fully dead will shorten the battery life significantly. -
After a one week logout and shutdown my macpro 1,1 laptop running OSx 10.6.8 shows a black screen at startup attempts. The battery is fully charged and both resetting the power manager and zapping the PRAM have failed to permit startup. What else can I try?

For some reason when I plug my phone up to charge it just keeps showing me the apple logo and then it goes away shows the battery sign is low and that its charging. So I'm wondering why it wont turn on would I have t get a new one, and would it be free
If you've tried the basic troubleshooting steps (restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new), and you've tried charging from a wall socket and these all fail, then you have a hardware problem.
If your unit is still in warranty, you will be eligible for a replacement with a refurbished unit free of charge. If you are out of your warranty period, you will be eligible for an out of warranty exchange which will cost the equivalent of 200 US dollars. -

Ipod touch 4g ios5 showing charged icon while the battery is half charged
i bought my ipod touch 4g a month back from naperville, IL. Since four days while charging, the battery level reaches half and the battery full icon i.e. the plug icon comes up and the ipod stops charging. Kindly help me find the solution of the problem...the ipod is running on the latest iOS5 version. I've tried charging my iPod through wall n pc...
thankyouI found it was album artwork being too big for the 4 gen itouch music app...
use
Sanse Mp3 Art Sizer
http://hcware.110mb.com/mp3art/
to resize the album picture files to 500 max and the problem should be solved.
You will need to run it in the Command Line to change the resize values from the default 250 pixel 80% Quality jpeg.
So...
Run this...
sansemp3artsizer /500/90
which equals 500 pixels and 90 percent quality.
Took 24 hours to get through 20,000 files but it worked and now my itouch doesn't crash.
Of course I shouldn't have had to this this as my old 3rd gen worked fine, as did my even older ipod classic worked fine.... -
I've tried clicking on "unplayed" episodes of podcasts and iTunes never shows me the newest or the ones I've recently downloaded. How to fix this?
Hello yung ron,
It may be that your iPhone's set to sync automatically, which can potentially remove any music that's been added to the device. It may help to set the device to 'manual mode,' so that you have complete and total control over what content is on the device.
