My iPod 4G 36 gigs is not charging
My iPod 4G 36 gigs died completely last night, and it's been on my iHome since 10:00pm. It is now 4:04pm and when I click the lock button it shows a battery that has a little bit of red at the left end along with the lightning bolt charging symbol beneath it. I haven't taken the iPod off the charger, the iPod is positioned on the iHome correctly, and the iHome is plugged in properly. What do I do?
Try directly connecting the iPod to your computer or wall charger. Also see the not-charging topic of:

IPOD video 30 gig will not charge
The big battery icon shows on the screen but the progress bar does not move. I have let it sit and sit and still no charge. Has anyone had this happen? It will turn on but then shuts off and says the battery is low.

My ipod nano (5 generation) will not charge.
My ipod nano (5 generation) will not charge. Sometimes, if I connect it to the computer, turns on and appears on the screen a battery. Other times I connect it, and will not turn on anything. If you load it, I can use it, but if I turn off the ipod, after does not turn on. I tried to reload it with an outlet to the current, but does not turn on. Can I fix it? How much does it cost?
You need a new battery.

My ipod touch 5th gen will not charge when connected to pc. works when plugged into wall
I just got my 5th gen ipod today, and when i plug it into my pc (and my roommate's) they make the sound as if something is connected, but my ipod does not charge. When I plug it into my wall charger, it works fine. I've tried multiple cables, and multiple PCs, but it makes no difference. The weirdest thing though, is when I restart my computer, when it is about to close windows, it starts charging for a few seconds, then turns back off. This is so confusing. Any ideas?
Sounds like the computer's USB ports do not provide enough current to charge the iPod when the screen is on. I would connect a partially discharged iPod to the computer for a couple of hours and see it it is charged.

Ipod shuffle 2nd gen does not charge on new 5W USB power adapter
Hi,
my perfectly functional ipod shuffle 2nd gen with original dock will not charge with the new Continental Europe 5W USB power adapter, even though the specs of the power adapter include the 2nd generation shuffle. Shuffle will blink orange three times, longer than normal blinking, and then do nothing. probably nothing I can do about it, but worth a note. The US model of the new 5W adapter does not include the 2nd gen shuffle, so maybe it is an error on the apple specs page.
Maybe the 2nd gen needs more than 5W to charge?indeed, it needs the bigger 12 Watt Adapter and the apple site is wrong.

IPod Touch 4th gen will not charge, or sync to iTunes
Hello, I have a 2 year old iPod 4th gen 32 gb. About a week ago a realized that when a charged it the charging screen did not appear. I made no big deal about it since it still charged, but then I tried to connect it to my cpu to see if anything changed, nothing did (it also cannot connect to iTunes to my cpu but can connect to the app just fine). So I went on with it but recently it stopped charging all together. I'd power it down at night and turn it on in the morning and didn't charge at all past 20% So I powered it down and this image came up.Yes, I have seen this image before but when I plugged it in and got the charging screen after it died. But now it cannot get past this screen I left it plugged in all day and it doesn't do anything else. I can reset it after 10 minutes to wake it up but it dies again almost right away now normally i would just toss this away, since how old it is but I'm getting an iPhone soon and I want to be able to transfer everything over, to the iPhone but it keeps dying before i can do anything. And I would like to fix it so I could sell it for some cash.

My ipod will not charge when connected to my dock or my computer. I will play when connected to both. I have tried both USB ports, checked the connections on my dock (power light is on) and it will just not charge.
Howdy Crickety22,
Using the USB cord in different locations is a great way to help isolate this kind of issue. Since you have done that, the next step I would recommend is testing a different USB cable with the device.
Check out this info from the article named Archived - iPod's battery doesn't charge found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ta44551
Faulty cable
If something is wrong with the FireWire or USB cable that came with iPod, it may not supply any power to charge the battery. Note: Only iPod models with a Click Wheel can get power from a high-powered USB port using the supplied cable (includes iPod mini, iPod (Click Wheel), iPod photo, iPod with color display, iPod nano, and Fifth Generation iPod).
Make sure you are using the cable that came with iPod. Some third-party cables may not work properly with iPod.
Make sure nothing is in or blocking your computer's FireWire or USB ports.
Check the connections to make sure the cable is completely plugged in.
Try another known-good FireWire or USB cable if available.
If this resolves the issue your FireWire or USB cable needs to be replaced. You can arrange for replacement at theiPod Service Website.
And this part as well:
Faulty dock connector or FireWire port on iPod
If something is wrong with iPod's FireWire or Dock Connector port, it may not supply power to iPod.
Make sure nothing is in or blocking iPod's FireWire or Dock Connector port.
Check the connection to make sure the FireWire or Dock Connector cable is completely plugged in.
If this did not resolve the issue iPod needs to be repaired. You can arrange for repair at the iPod Service Website.
