MY IPOD TOUCH ISN'T CHARGING

my ipod touch isnt charging when i plug it in my wall charger(the charger is a samsung)i left it all night but didint even get 1% of charge.I then plugged it in my computer(see below)but said "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED". i tried everything:bought a new charger,  did the 10 sec dome button thing, and i am planning to get a new apple charger.WHAT SHOLD I DO ??????

- Look at the dock connector in the iPOd  Look for bent, broken, mising or corroded contacts and other abnormalities.
- After being connected to a charging source for an hour see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • My Ipod touch isn't charging or showing the charging icon!!

    My ipod touch isn't charging at all. It is not recognized by itunes. It isn't showing charging icon both in the screen and at the top. I tried different chargers, usb cables and all. What do I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
    Since you did not say how long the battery lasts I am nut sure the battery is the problem.

  • What do I do if my ipod touch isn't charging at all?

    I have an ipod touch 3g and whenever I plug it into the computer to charge the apple logo comes up, but it doesn't charge. When I unplug it a couple hours later it has the little symbol to plug it in because the battery is dead. I can't even use my itouch. What do I do?

    Try a new charger and/or cable. If that does not work, you may need a new battery.

  • Brand new iPod Touch, won't charge!

    Hi there,
    Have posted this under another topic but hope to get some more exposure here.
    Just as a disclaimer, I work for a retail store in New Zealand. Have taken a returned iPod touch home to try and fix, but am stuck! This iPod still belongs to my employer however, needs to be restored to a re-sellable condition.
    Basically, the iPod touch will not charge. It is forever stuck on the 'no charge' screen with the red battery symbol and the lightning bolt at the bottom. This is when it is plugged in (have plugged it in to a PC, my Mac and wall charger). When not plugged in, same symbols appear except with a plug symbol, pointing to the lightning bolt.
    When plugged in, the iPod doesn't show up in iTunes or Disk Utility, same on the HP PC laptop I also tried it on.
    I put the iPod into DFU mode and restored it to the latest firmware with iTunes on my Mac. However, once the iPod has finished restoring, iTunes tells me it will show up after rebooting but once the countdown has finished, the same stupid 'no charge' symbols appear.
    By the way, this iPod has been left charging on two different wall chargers overnight, I have tried restoring it several times and still to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!! I am totally stumped.
    Cheers!

    Well since it has not been charging on multiple computers i would take a look at replacing the usb cable. Something could not be connecting right or just needs to be replaced. If this has already been done it is starting to sound like a battery issue with the ipod.
    Hope this helps!!

  • My 4th gen iPod Touch won't charge

    Hi, folks:
    Suddenly, my 4th generation iPod Touch won't charge. I don't mean it won't hold a charge; I mean it WON'T charge. There's no (peep!) when I attach it to a Mac, a Windows box, or to the wall. I've tried not only at my place but at my doctor's office, too, on his computer. Rats.
    It fell three feet onto a concrete floor a week before this happened, so I'm unsure of cause/effect there. However, chances are most excellent that I touched it while filled with static electicity (my bed is exceedingly staticky). Maybe I touched the charging port? I have no idea, but I kinda sorta have a memory of having gotten a shock while touching my pod and wondering whether that was bad.
    It'll be a couple more days before I can get to a Genius Bar (but thank cow I'm in New York City and have my pick of them!). In the meantime, can anyone calm me down about my situation? Do you imagine it's doomed (it IS still operable provided I keep it plugged in, though iTunes can't see it since it won't mount), or do you spose the installation of a new battery might bring my precious baby back to me? It IS freshly backed up (again, thank cow!), but I'm not in a position to buy a new one right now, and unfortunately, I don't know what to do with my eyeballs without a Touch in front of them.
    Oh, how I hope someone can tell me that this has happened to him, and an Apple Genius merely did something magical and handed it back intact and amazing again so Ican cry happy tears. It's been four days and I'm just sick without it (and having to look at this gigantic Mac, with its large and beautiful text in many windows, means I can't RECLINE! WAAAAH!).
    Thanks for any soothing words you have, and if you have sad ones, well, I'll vag up and read them, as I've prepared for the worst anyway (sob!). Just please deliver them gently.
    I appreciate it!

    Wow, Kevin; that's a tantalizing theory! I don't like it (I *never* like to think about logic board damage for any piece of hardware), but it's tantalizing, as it would explain my pod seemingly charging out of thin air, and it'd also explain why my pod doesn't just DIE altogether from a dead battery.
    I feel like an idiot: I have iTunes set to never sync automatically with my pod, so it never automatically recognizes the pod. I'll bet I could sync it if I clicked to "apply," as I've been downloading new apps since 2/21 (the last time I backed the pod up, mere minutes before it failed), but I don't want to risk not having a connection that's 100% and bollixing up what's on the pod now. (I'll be in the hospital for a day and will need something to read the whole time; I'll need an intact pod!)
    Thanks for sticking with me, Kevin; I always like figgering things out, and your theory's interesting. I'll mention it to the Genius. It doesn't give me any hope, but not having any hope, I can always be pleasantly surprised, whereas if I go in all hopeful, someone can dash my dreams. This way, I'll prolly just have my expectations met.
    I appreciate your talking it out with me a lot!

  • My iPod touch is not charging. HELP?!

    My iPod Touch is not charging or starting at all. i've tried all the USB ports I own, my docking station, i've tried resetting it, but nothing's seeming to work. I got this last year as a replacement for my other and this is the first problem i've had with it... I think it's 2nd gen. The empty/charging battery icon comes on every time I press a button when it's plugged in, but nothing else happens, it's been like this for 5 days now. Does anyone have any idea's how to make it charge? It's also not showing on my iTunes at all either. Can anyone help?!?!

    I was a bit miffed to learn that my new iPod Touch does not support recharging via firewire-type connections. Indeed, I didn't even realise that there was any difference between the dock connector I use via USB with my computer and the dock connector connected to my car's audio system. But there is a difference, and I can no longer rely on my iPod to keep me entertained for long car trips.
    The solution I've found is not cheap, but works. You need to get a third-party charge converter. I ordered mine from the people who invented it, in Sweden: http://www.ridax.se. I also understand that they will soon be available from CableJive (http://cablejive.com/charge_converter.html) in the States.

    My iPod touch is not charging, nor is it syncing with my commputer and iTunes. It will charge on the wall charger, and in the car, but not on the computer. My wife's iPod Nano syncs on the computer. I went in and reset my iPod Touch back to factory settings and now it will not let me get in unless I sync to iTunes on my computer. Well, it still will not connect thru the USB cord. Does anyone know what I should do to get this corrected? I want my iPod back.

    Have you seen and worked through the suggestions in this Apple support document?

  • My ipod touch will not charge, turn on, or appear in itunes, what can i do?

    My ipod touch will not charge, turn on, or appear in itunes, what can i do?
    When i plug it in to my compuer it shows an empty battery with the charge symbol then after a while it shows the apple logo like it is turning on then nothing happens and it goes back to the battery.

    I haven't left it overnight to charge. Is there a difference between letting it charge overnight and an hour or two with no results? The ipod does not even recognize that the cord is attatched.
    I left it on my dresser in my bedroom.

  • TS2771 My iPod touch will only charge through computer, new wall charger will not charge it, but charges other iPods

    My sons iPod touch will only charge with computer. This has happened since update. Wall charger charges other iPods/iPhone. Restored to original defaults. And still does not work.

    I believe it started with the update prior to 5.1.1.  I just udated it to the 5.1.1, thinking it would resolve the problem.

  • My ipod touch isn't syncing to my computer it says error 13019, My ipod touch isn't syncing to my computer it says error 13019

    My ipod touch isn't syncing to my computer it says error 13019 and also my internet is connected but the ipod dosen't open any page I got to on safari.

    You can try a reset.
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Otherwise yo will have to update via iTunes on a computer. Other uses have had to do that.
    -   fyou update on other than your syncing computer/iTunes library following these instructions. When you restore the iPod it will also be updated.
