- 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 iphone 4 will not charge and the battery is dead how do i fix this?

    If it's still under warranty, Apple will fix it, but you have to send it to them, so you won't have it for several weeks. If the warranty is expired, they'll still do it, but you'll have to pay for it. Last I heard, it costs $99/S&H.
    That is the ultimate defect in the iPhone. No other cellphone has a battery that is not user-replaceable. I won't buy a phone that doesn't.

  • My iPod suddenly stopped reacting to my charge and the battery icon doesn't come up but it still charges and now it won't connect to my iTunes on my computer, help?!

    I brought an iPod off eBay, second hand a few weeks ago. The first week I had it everything was working fine. Then suddenly when I plugged it in to charge the battery logo didn't appear, so I left it overnight and it still charged but there was still no logo. And now when I plug it in to connect to my iTunes on my computer, it isn't showing up on the left hand side where it should. I have tried restoring the iPod twice and using different cables and no change was made, what should I do?

  • My iPod shuffle, which I prchased in 2009 only worked for a short time so I put it back in the box and just recently took it out. I will not charge and the power light does not come on. It was faulty from the start and thought I was out the money I paid.

    My iPod shuffle only worked for a short time. It will not charge  and the power light does not come on. Bought it in 2009. Put it back in the box and in my desk. Recently tried to get it to work again but no luck. Anyone else have this problem? Very disappointed with the product although my wifes work perfectly.

    Can't say I haven't done the same kind of thing...keep finding things I had every intention of...
    If you have the chance stop by an Apple Retail store and talk to them about it...they often work deals for replacement of out of warranty non-working items for prices around half price.  Won't hurt to stop by and see what they will do for you.

    Get a replacement cable. If still under warranty, Apple will replace the cable.

    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer

  • When I plug my iPad up to charge it says not charging, and my battery drains very quickly what can I do to fix?

    When I plug my iPad up to charge it says not charging, and my battery drains very quickly what can I do to fix?

    There are two different types of adapters by Apple that look similar. One is a 5 Watt adapter used with iPhones and iPods. The other is a 10 Watt adapter used with the iPad. Other than looking at the text on the adapter, which is hard to read, you can tell the different by looking at the socket the pin part plugs into the adapter. The 5 Watt has two notches and the 10 Watt has only one notch.
    Make sure you use the 10 Watt adapter with an iPad.

  • HT3964 Installed a new battery for a Macbook 2,1 New battery not charging. Battery symbol shows (Not charging) and replace battery. Green LED on magsafe connection. Disconnection results in an instant shutdown.

    I have just installed a new Battery after the old one showed (Not Charging) and when you clicked on this icon the dropdown"condition replace now". Problem now is the computer still shows the same message in the top bar (Not Charging) and the dropdown also shows "condition relace now". the magsafe show the greem LED i.e not charging, but providing power. If you disconnect the magsafe the computer powers off instantly confirming we have power. I have carried out resetting the SMC controller and still no change. Tested the standby voltage on the magsafe pins etc, all in spec. What should I do now, as I don't want to keep spending more and more. Bellow is the info from the system profiler.

    he menu button of the ipod touch (4th generation) is not working and the service center of ipod is asking us to pay for the fixation of the said item even though it's still on warranty. this is the case number 215866894. And the service center said that they don't cover that center part of the ipod so they're asking us money before they can fix it. We bought the ipod last december 8, 2010 and we brought it to the service center last april, 2011 here in the philippines. And until now they're not fixing it because they're asking us to pay half the price of the item which is 8,040 pesos..

    As advised, you need to call Apple about this.

    No one here works for Apple (no one who will reply, anyway) so there's nothing anyone here can do to help you with this issue.

  • HT3964 My Macbook air charges intermittently. At times when I connect the power adapter it shows that power is coming in but  says "not charging" and the led light on the power adapter does not light. At other times it charges normally. Any ideas?

    Hey guys,
    I am having problems with charging my mac Air.  Sometimes it charges perfectly but then at times much as it shows that it's getting the power from the charger, it says "not charging" and the led light on the charger does not light up. Any help?
    Rgds,

    That can happen when you are Taxing the system. No Apple supplied AC adapter supplies enough power to both power the system and charge the battery at the same time when the system is under Heavy Load, when you are Taxing the system heavily. At those times it will draw power from both the AC adapter and the battery at the same time. So if it is drawing power from both it can't charge the battery while it is drawing power from it.

    can you please tell me whats wrong with my mbp and how do i resolve it

    First check the connections on the power adapter and the MBP.  Make certain that they are clean and see if the spring loaded connectors on the power adapter are not stuck.
    Try a SMC reset:

    If available, try another power adapter.
    If no success, bring the MBP and the power adapter to an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.

  • My phone won't charge and the battery is now dead, it is not the charger, what can I do?, My phone won't charge and the battery is now dead, it is not the charger, what can I do?

    MY iphone4 won't charge and the battery is now dead. It is not the charger, as I have two and they both charge my iPad. How can I fix my phone??

    This sounds like it could be something to do with the pin connector in the problematic phone - or something internally at least.
    I'm no expert but I do know that you should seek help from official Apple store. Do not be tempted to open this up yourself as it could invalidate any warranty you might have.
    My advice is to take it to your nearest Apple shop. They can look at this and replace if within warranty?

  • I have a 3rd generation ipod, the screen is broken and the battery is dead, I wanted to know if I can get an exchange for that towards a iphone 4

    I have a 3rd generation ipod that was my daughter's.  The screen is broken and the battery is dead but is there any exchange programs to get her a iphone 4?  Her contract for Verizon is up in March 2013 but I wanted to get her an iphone for christmas.  Can anyone help me please?

    There is no exchange program. If the damage was caused by the user, it also wouldn't be covered by any warranty, so your best bet is to try to sell it as is or get it fixed and then sell it or keep using it. Some resellers will accept trade ins - I know this company accepts trade ins, but it may just be Macs, not iDevices - you can check though:
