my i pod touch was fully discharged and now will not charge at all. what can i do

Try the not charging topic of:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
Also try another cable, another charging source. Further look at the dock connector in the iPod. Look for abnormalities like foreign material, bend or corroded contacts, broken or cracked plastic.

IPad battery fully discharged and now will not take a new charge

I've had this baby plugged in for 6 hours and it won't even charge to 10%. I am using an Apple supplied cord and charger.

Plug the USB cable into your computer. The iPad will say "Not Charging", however, it will charge but slowly.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

My iphone 4 ran out of battery and now will not charge

Yesterday my iphone was acting unusual randomly alerting me with a message saying something like the accessory you have plugged into your iphone is not compatable with this device(while my iphone was not plugged into anything at all). it had done this several times during the day untill had turned it off and then back on. For the rest of the day no alerts had popped up. Later that night my iphone ran completely out of battery dead and now will not charge or turn on, while on the charger or not. I have not updated the phone since i got it. I just tried plugging it into my computer and my computer (PC)recognized it but said that the device could not be installed. Is there anything i can do?

You most likely have dirt, moisture or a bent pin in the dock connector on the phone. Inspect it with a magnifying glass, and if it's dirt do your best to clean it thoroughly. A dry toothbrush frequently will fix it.
If that doesn't resolve the problem the phone needs to be repaired.

My ipod 5 will not charge. It died and now will not charge to turn back on. What should I do?

My Ipod 5 will not charge. It died and now will no charge to turn back on. What should i do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Also
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My ipod shut off while i was using it and now will not come back on what do i do

My Ipod touch shut down while I was using it and will not come back on. Any suggestions on what I should do??

Have you tried holding the Home and Power buttons at the same time? You should let them go when the Apple logo appears.

An iPhone Burned My Girlfriend... And Now Will Not Charge/Sync

So last week my girlfriend's iPhone 3gs did something new. She had just plugged it into the charger - the one that came with the phone when she purchased it - and plugged the charger into a wall outlet. My iPhone charger occupied the other socket. Within about 60 seconds, she noticed that the phone was getting extremely hot to the touch toward the bottom where the charger is. Then the burning smell started, so she immediately unplugged the phone. The end of the charger cable was actually hot enough to burn her skin and leave a scar where it touched her arm. When we looked at the port on the bottom of the phone, there were scorch marks on the contacts for the cable.
My phone was fine, we unplugged both cables and plugged them back in, then plugged her cable into my phone. It functioned perfectly. We plugged my cable into her phone and it said "this charging device is not supported." We tried some other cables we had from her old iPhone and our iPods, same thing. The issue was definitely related to her phone.
In the morning she called the local Apple store to make an appt. at the "genius bar." The guy on the phone listened to the issue, then said (in the most obnoxiously condescending douche voice possible) "Ma'am this could NOT be a problem with your phone but I guess if you want you can bring it in Friday and 4:30 and I will try to fit you in." Mind you, this was LAST TUESDAY so we know he is probably booked solid til then with people who have problems with their brand-new iPhone 4. Last night, on a whim, I decided to take her through all the troubleshooting steps they will go through and ask her if she did so they can send her away without resolving her problem.
I plugged the phone into my computer. Wasn't recognized by either device. I swapped cables, tried again, no dice. I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in a few times and for a split second it said "sync in progress" so I wiggled the cable and held it in at an odd angle and finally got it to sync up. I backed up all her data first, then I tried to restore it per Apple's troubleshooting docs. It would not maintain connection long enough to restore. I tried to update it to OS4, also no connection. My phone worked fine on the same cable in the same slot. I had a nagging idea in my head Apple would still try to f* her over, so we registered her on their support site. It initially told us her hardware was no longer covered unless it was a "manufacturer's defect." Well, of course this is a defect! So I selected the exception and had a tech support rep call us.
She was polite but seemed like she knew nothing about what she was doing. Her first idea was for us to pay Apple $29.99 to cover the device, so we explained this is a manufacturer's defect and it should be covered for free. She had already heard the story once but we repeated it for emphasis that it was in fact the iPhone itself. She said, "Oh well it COULDN'T be the iPhone!" and suggested we restore it. I had just gotten done telling her that no computer would recognize that specific phone, so I asked her how she recommended we restore it. She read through her list of scripted responses, then told us to take it to an Apple store, but they "probably wouldn't be able to help us since it doesn't sound like the phone was the problem."
Now I KNOW that Apple told its support employees to DENY DENY DENY all responsibility for issues with their hardware, the memo was leaked and published all over the place recently. But this is just ********. It's not even like we have an iPhone 4 and they can't afford to swap it for us... they have TONS of leftover 3gs's that nobody is going to buy. But still, we get screwed by their ****-poor customer service AGAIN.
So, I decided to make everyone aware of this issue in case they were wondering how Apple is treating their customers. I am no overzealous fanboy, I do happen to like my iPhone 3gs when it has service... It has provided the least number of headaches out of all the phones I have owned and tried recently. It's a grudging concession though, as I have had no small number of problems with their products before. But back then, when my 6th iPod died the same way as the other 5 before it, even a year out of the warranty, they would just send me a box to return it and a new iPod no questions asked.
I will update with results of our visit to the Apple store if I get to go with her.
Anyone else had a similar problem or experience that can lend some info on how to deal with the "Genius" at the Apple store, or Apple support in general?

Can I ask you a personal question? Why do a certain "faction" of Apple users and supporters eschew logic and accountability in favor of a fanatical level of worship toward the company and its products?
You say that is how it has "always been," yet I remember an Apple that replaced 6 (SIX!) of my iPods for the same design fault without so much as asking me a single question before sending a box.
You say all manufacturers do this, however Samsung replaced my phone with a revised design of the same model when they realized that the battery cover was defective. Nokia did the same with theirs for various software problems. Twice, as a matter of fact.
I have spoken to other Apple customers (via relating this story to other groups on the internet) who had their iPhones replaced for less than this. I guess it's no surprise that I would get this type of response on a board maintained by Apple; I somehow expected that if the company STILL can't take responsibility for flaws in the basic design of the iPhone 4 - verified by several independent tests that provide irrefutable evidence - I wouldn't be able to receive anything of value from its representatives or various hangers-on that make up what I suspect to be a large percentage of this forum's membership.
I don't want to hear "the company is always right" mantra, I want someone not plugged into the Cupertino Matrix, so to speak, to offer some insight on what I might be able to do to make the "genius" behind the counter forgo the whole "anti-customer service" attitude that Apple instills in its employees through memos and threats of termination these days and DO HIS JOB, which by my definition is ASSISTING THE CUSTOMER WITH A PIECE OF DEFECTIVE HARDWARE. I would be surprised if he were even able to go beyond plugging it into his test rig *one time* before handing it back and suggesting we buy a replacement or upgrade to the new model as he has been programmed to do.
Seriously, what is the password, secret handshake, the wink and nod required to cut through the facade - aside from spending what I originally paid a second time? Or is there nothing substantive behind it for you people anymore?
I LOVE my iPhone, I really do. The only gripe I have EVER had with it is related to AT&T service problems. I upgraded to iOS4 on the launch date, I enjoy the apps, the fast web browsing, the relative ease of use... I will wait for the revised model of the new iPhone to come out (still waiting for Apple to acknowledge THEIR problems first), but Apple WILL get my money. I could be one of you, I just feel like I want to retain my objectivity instead of being lobotomized and becoming a brand-slave.

CRIO startup directory was typed STARTUP and now will not boot. How do I recover from this error or how do I rename the directory when my proxy server is read only due no startup files?

I loaded files on the cRIO but used upper case letters for the startup directory. Now I cannot access the RIO since it didn't boot. The proxy server comes up read-only so I can't reload the files or change the directory. I tried the RS232 port but I can't get it to respond to commands even though I can see the processor boot.

There is NO need to put your entire question into the subject line of your post.

When you jar or drop a hard drive when it's operating the heads strike the platters and ruin sectors and the data on them.
Your getting the spinning wheel because the OS has been damaged and/or quite possibly the drive.
You'll first have to determine if it's a hardware issue
Do #3 Hardware Test and #5 Disk Utlity Repair Disk/Permissions here (check the SMART status)
Step by Step to fix your Mac
If the drive is fine and you don't have a recent copy of your data off the machine then also do this
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
Then proceed with fixing the damaged software, likley by #8 your problem will be fixed.
