  • I am about to upgrade my ipod. i want to give my old ipod nano to a friend. what do i need to do so they can use it on their computer?

    i am about to upgrade my ipod and want to give my old ipod nano to a friend. what do i need to do so thay can use it on their computer and create their own itunes account?

    Connect it to iTunes, select the Nano in the "devices" column and click "Restore". The warning window you get will ask you if this is what you really want to do.
    Your very lucky friend will essentially have it in the same condition as if she bought it new.
    One more thing: if you registered it in My Support Profile, make sure to un-register it. Only you can do that. Have your friend register it under her own Apple ID.

  • HT1430 forgot my passcode and IPOD has been disabled.  what do I need to do

    Forgot my passcode and IPOD has been disabled.  what do I need to do

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    - 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.

  • IPod only charges when connect to the Mac

    My iPod will only charge when connected to the Mac.  It will not charge on any other cable or docking station.  And, yes, I have tested the various cables and docking stations with other devices and the issue is clearly only with this one device.  I am note sure what generation the device is, but it is old enough that it cannot run iOS 7.  It is on iOS 6.1.5.
    Thanks

    Then it seems that the other sources do not work satisfactorily. Do the other charging sources charge other devices?

  • Ipod wont charge when connected by USB

    My ipod doesn't charge when i connect via USB but will charge on Firewire..?? is this normal??

    My ipod doesn't charge when i connect via USB but
    will charge on Firewire..?? is this normal??
    I assume that you are referring to the ipod being plugged into your Mac when charging. The Mac cannot be in "sleep" mode if you want to charge the ipod by plugging into USB. However the Mac can be in "sleep" if you plug into the Firewire port. The reason is that the FireWire port is powered while the USB is not when the Mac is asleep.
    BTW you can charge via the USB 1 and not just USB 2. I have a 4G ipod that will charge when connect to my older iBook (2002 model) that only has USB 1.

  • My ipod isnt charging with amazon lighting.

    So recently my apple Ipod charger brokeand i bought an amazon brand lighting charger. While waiting my ipod died. So when the amazon charger arrived I plugge it in. I waited an hour and nothing has happened. It looks like a battery with 3 tiny red bars in it. It also does not sync. Am I able to fix it without going to a store? Or do I just need to buy an apple lighting charger?

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to Restore your device...
    Connect the Device to the iTunes library you Usually Sync with, open iTunes, click on the Device tab that appears in the Left side column of iTunes, Select your Device, then go to the Summary Page and click Restore.
    If necessary Place the Device into Recovery mode...

  • IPod isnt charging

    Hi, i just recently got my 4GB nano...and this morning when i tried to charge it it wouldnt charge, the screen is turned off because the battery is dead..and when i plug it into the USB cable it doesnt charge...iTunes and iPod updater doesnt detect it either please help..im starting too worry..

    I believe the documentation says that if the nano battery is completely flat, it may take up to 10 minutes or so to build up enough charge that the computer will recognise the nano.... just leave it connected and see what happens

  • IPod not Charging, or Connecting to iTunes when Plugged into the Computer

    I cracked the screen a few weeks ago. When I plug it into the computer, it does not charge, and it is not recognized. BUT, if I use the same USB cable, I can charge it using a wall charger.

    You can try here:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    However, if you have acces to aonther computer that is know to connect to iPods I would try the other computer first.  The iPod damage may be causing the problem

  • Ipod wont charge or connect

    My 8gb Ipod Touch 2g shut off due to low battery, but when i plug it into my mac, it shows the low battery symbol with a lightning bolt and then the apple startup symbol, then shut off, and then repeats the same pattern over and over. the ipod will not connect to itunes and also will not charge. also after awhile of being plugged in the port where the cord is plugged it gets very warm. tried connecting my friends ipod and it connects fine and tried his ipod cord and still wont connect.

    My grandson's iPod Touch 2nd gen just did the same thing. It didn't seem to recharge when connected to the Mac and when plugging in the really low battery symbology (thin red line lightening boat, etc. show up, then after a while the apple shows up. Sometimes the battery low symbol will show up again, followed shortly by the apple again, and then the apple stays there and the screen never goes to sleep while charging.) I tried resetting it after it had been charging using the wall socket charger for a while, but it seems not to be working. I'm going to see if it will charge using the wall charger for a while, but I'm not holding on to a lot of hope after seeing your post. I'll post back if I have any positive results.

  • 5th Gen Ipod Classic Charging and Connecting problem. Battery has been changed and no improvement.

    I have a 5th gen classic 30 GB ipod, that will not charge with an adaptor or USB 2.0  It also will not display the "Do not  disconnect" when connected to a USB 2.0 conector and is not being picked up by my computer (Windows Vista).  It was originally on a XP computer years ago.   Battery change did not help.  I have a lot of music I would like to get off of it, but my computer will not recognize and the new battery is draining down. Help me.

    there is also the posibility of it being fried
    have you considered sending it for diagnostics?
    the online place I use (digiexpress) charges $25 for diagnostics and estimate,
    if you decide to have it fixed, they then add the cost of parts, or ship it back unfixed.
    labor is included in the $25 fee
    My classic had 2 batterises changed by myself to no avail, until I decided to send it in to realize the board was fried. waste of money changing batteries, iPod went to the recycling bin. now i leave it to the pros and actually save $$.
