See the not-charging topic of:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
Have you tried another cable?
Another charging source? Does iTunes see the iPod when you connect to your computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.
An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store would be next.

HT4060 My iPad wont charge when plugged into a computer, the battery isn't lasting long, and its getting hot when charging

My iPad wont charge when plugged into a computer, the battery isn't lasting long, and its getting hot when charging

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W 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 (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%.

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.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

Did you check the USB cable or try another one?
Did you check the docking port for any kind of debris or lint?
Did you already try to reset your device by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?

Ipod touch is not recognised by the computer or in i tunes and is unrepsonsive. All we get is the apple logo. How can it be restored to factory settings?

Disable the computer's firewall and antivirus during the download and update.

All of a sudden, my IPod Touch will not allow me to update in the App Store. I get message that says "cannot connect to the ITunes Store" Can anyone help? Thanks so much

IPod Touch Screen not Working after using Assistive Touch

Hey everyone!
Yesterday my iPod Touch 4th gen touch screen froze (not the screen itself - it still wakes from sleep & responds to notifications and charging etc.), after myself accidentally taping 'Voice Control' on Assistive Touch.
I was wondering, since it's out of warranty (it's a couple of years old), I can't send it back. I'm currently backing up & restoring it.
Can anyone tell me if it's the software or hardware? It's going to take at least a good day or so to backup & restore, due to storage is full, and it's 32GB capacity, so it'd be good to know in advance.
And if anyone has got any other suggestions to fix it, please let me know! It'll be much appreciated.
Thanks heaps!
PS. Please don't tell me to repair it...it'll cost just as much to fix my whole iPod, buttons & screen than it is to buy a brand new one!!

There is really no what to know if hardware or software problem without trying to restoring the iPod. First from backup and then to factory settings/new iPod. If still problem then it is a hardware problem.

IPod touch 5 not working after updated to iOS 8.3

ipod touch 5th gen isn't working after I updated it to iOS 8.3. After it finished updating, the iPod wouldn't turn on and wouldn't charge. I've had it for over 2 years. the iPod isn't charging and is only displaying the dead battery icon. I have tried everything but it still isn't working.

See what you missed here:
- 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 another cable
- 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.

Help! My iPod touch is not working after I dropped it!

I have the iPod touch 4G. I was sitting down, and when I stood up it fell out of my pocket and onto the tile floor. It feel on the back of it while wearing it's case (a paul frank one that's 2 weeks old). It's screen has been smashed before, but I had it fixed, and it's been working great since. I tried plugging it into the charger, holding down the power button, and holding down the power and home button together. Can anyone give me some advice on what I should do or what might be wrong?? I've had it since about Christmas.
Thanks!!

IPod touch 2G not restoring after paid 3.1 update

Hi I'm new here, this is my problem.
I have an iPod touch 8GB 2G, purchased in August last year, anyway, I decided to treat myself last Saturday and update it, thing is, when it updated it froze then put itself in restore mode, thinking this was just part of the process of updating I clicked restore, it then decided not to update and iTunes gave me a bout of errors such as the most common (13,14,1604) and the uncommon (20) after feeling extremely guilty for even bothering with the update in the first place, I did everything possible to make it work such as;
removing iTunes
Re-installing all apple software incl iTunes.
After managing to calm myself down my friend offered me his 2G 16GB as he was given two iPod's in September by his divorced parent's.
So I plugged this one into iTunes ready to sync it, when suddenly; it decided (against my will) as I'd already purchased the update, to update this one to a 3.0, the exact same process occurred and I now have a brand new iPod that will not restore itself.
May I say I have tried EVERYTHING, un-installing, re-installing, deleting the software updates, re-booting, different computers, I have even tried a jailbreak with no success.
As I live in Scotland and both iPod's were purchased in Argos, I cannot get support from anywhere, any suggestions or help, PLEASE, I am at the end of my tether and I don't want a brand new iPod touch to go to waste.
Can I also mention, I have tried restoring it from various iTunes series, (7.0,8.0 and 9.0) and it is not restoring in any of them.
I have tried jailbreakers; Ra1n and QuickFreedom.
I think this may be to do with the 3.1 software from Apple, therefore, after reading various similar posts, I am not alone.
This has had me in tears as my original 8GB iPod touch was a gift from my recently deceased grandfather and the fact it has broken has had me in tears.
Anyway, help is well appreciated

I had the same problem once and right now I'm typing this reply on the iPod that had the error, so it's a semi-easy fix. This isn't the way I did it but as soon as I remeber I'll post that as well.
Ok, first check to see if your iPod is connected to your computer via a USB hub. If so then unplug it and plug directly into a USB port on your computer.
If that doesn't work try updating the USB driver like this:
1. Plug your iPod into the computer (no USB hub).
2. Quit iTunes if it is open.
3. Click on the start menu.
4. Click control panel.
5. In the control pane,l click on administrative tools. If you don't see this option look at the left column and click switch to classic view. You should then be able to click administrative tools.
6. Double click the computer management option.
7. In the left column you see the device manager option under the system tools folder.
8. In the right column, click the plus sign next to universal bus controllers to expand this option.
9. In the dropdown list look for anything related to iPod or Apple. You might see something like "iPod" or "Apple Mobile Device." You may also see a yellow colored exclamation point symbol, which means you need to update the driver.
10. RIGHT CLICK the "iPod" or "Apple Mobile Device" and choose update driver from the menu.
11. A hardware update wizard will pop up. Choose "Yes, this time only," then click next.
12. Select insall the software automatically and click next.
If that doesn't work let me know. This is a fix I found on the Internet. Some people still had trouble afterwards and others didn't.

Ipod touch will not sync after new itunes update

Ipod touch 4th generation will not sync after I updated the new itunes. Actually after I updated to the new itunes it deleted all my music from my ipod and refuses to reload. If someone could please help me that would be completely appreciated. I tried trying to sync each song individually but it didn't help (before it stopped syncing), then it stopped syncing, even though I have it hooked up it brings everything that I have on my ipod up but it won't do anything.

When I tried the first time it asked me if i wanted it to stop syncing and to restore. It gave the choices of yes and cancel, i didn't click either because the option box went away and it just stopped restoring on its own. I did the store again and now it is asking if i want to set up as a new ipod or to restore to Andrea's ipod. Should I set up as new?
Thank you Espeon for the article

I have an Ipod touch 32 gb 2nd generation. I was listening to it and it got hot and will not charge or turn on or do anything. Can someone help?

I was listening to my 32GB ipod touch 2nd generation and it got real hot and quit working. i can not get it to do anything. I have let it rest for several months and I can not get it to do anything. Can anyone help?

Do you have Apple Care for it?
If not, you may want to walk it into the nearest Apple Store and ask for assistance there...
Good luck in any case.

My iPod touch will not sync after 30 mins waiting. Is it faulty, is it i tunes site ?

Please Help.
My ipod touch has worked fine until about 4 days ago when it took about 50 mins to sync. Since then I can not even get it to move past "verrifying " stage. I have insured the pod but not sure if it is the actual device that is at fault or could there be an issue with the web site / my computer ?

Try resetting the iPo and try again. Resetting will delete nothing.
