My new iPod is not charging !!

Just bought this iPod about 3 weeks ago,
After the 1st use it turn out to no be able to charge itself, I plugged it into the USB port that charges my brother's iPod shuffle and it still doesn't charge. The iPod becomes hot but doesn't turn on. doesn't reset either.
on the web it says that... "Fifth Generation iPod can charge via USB or FireWire, but they require USB to sync with iTunes" but itune doesn't recognise the iPod since it's not charged.

This is probably because its not connecting to the computer. Open itunes and plug your ipod in, once this is done unlock your ipod and play around with whatever you've got on there untill the computer picks it up. If not unplug and replug your ipod in. if not you may need to update the itunes software.

  • New iPod nano not charging

    My brand new iPod is not taking a charge. I have run down the initial charge it came with about half way. When I connect it to the computer, or to a car charger, or to a wall outlet with adapter, the charging icon appears. However, even after several hours, the battery icon shows only 1/2 full. I have reset it several times. Is there more I can do, or do I need to send it in for repair?

    After disconnecting the iPod from a power source, does the battery indicator return to a full charge after a few minutes?
    It's not very accurate and sometimes takes a while.

  • Brand New Ipod will not charge. Too low to turn on. Same icon for 2 days

    I got this baby for christmas and recently it ran completely out of battery and I have had it connected to the computer for 2 days now and still no charge, Itunes does not even recognize it. If you got any help I guess just post on here or email me at [email protected]...

    I have this problem too. My first generation Nano was revived by a Genius at the local Apple store when he connected it to an AC adapter.
    Unfortunately, it seems that the Nano requires a small charge just to get it to the place where it can recharge using USB.
    The solution: don't let the battery discharge completely, and/or buy an AC charger for the Nano.
    I guess I should also change the settings on the iPod so it goes to sleep after a couple of hours. (I often listen to audio books while going to sleep, so the iPod plays all night, and uses all the battery power.)
    Over the life of the iPod, the cost of an AC adapter is far less than the cost of buying disposable batteries, but it irks me that an adapter is necessary when the rechargeable battery runs out.

  • IPod will not charge or connect to itunes

    Hello, My name is Perla and I am a proud customer of Apple. I bought my iPod Touch 4G 8G on March 17, 2011. I had no problems over the course of almost a year. Last week, my iPod would not charge or connect to iTunes. I took it to the Apple Store and they exchanged mine for another. Just a couple of days ago, my new iPod had been experiencing the same problem. As of now, it would not charge to my computer or any outlet for that matter or connect to iTunes. I want to take it to the Apple Store and get it checked out but I'm afraid they won't exchange it again, they'll probably charge me and I don't have the money. Any ideas or suggestions?

    I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.  You warranty is istll in effect.  The warranty for a replacement iPod is 90 days or the remainder of the original warranty, which  ever is greater.

  • My iPod will NOT charge anymore while it's turned on

    My iPod will NOT charge anymore while it's turned on, I have to plug it in then shut it off for it to charge. And when I connect it to the computer [Or any computer] It Says it cannot recognize the device..I've tried EVERYTHING to fix this...and I don't know if I should call apple or go back to where I bought it and ask for help?..

    Saying everthing is not helpful.  Did "everthing" include:
    - Resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restoring the iPod from backup
    - Restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod
    - Placing the iPod in recovery mode to get iTunes to see the iPod

  • IPod will not charge or show up in iTunes

    My iPod will not charge when I connect it to my computer through the USB cable. It does not show up on iTunes. Nothing comes up on the iPod screen at all. The iPod is completely dead. I have tried pressing the menu and center button at the same time. I have tried toggling the hold button. I have tried every combination. It is an old iPod (3 or 4 years at least) 80gb video. I have tried charging on another computer. It seems to only stop working like this if the battery dies completely.
    Is there another solution to this besides the menu/center button solution?
    Thanks!!

    This is the exact same problem I have. The only thing that works for me is to charge it on an old ihome alarm clock. I bought the alarm clock at the same time as the ipod, and I haven't tried it on a newer ihome device. Once my ipod is totally dead, thats the only thing that will work. I even took it to the apple store and they told me all they could do was give me 10% off a new ipod and "recycle" mine. Before you do that, I would really recommend trying to charge it on an ihome or similar device. Here is a link to the ihome I used to charge mine: http://www.uberreview.com/2005/06/ihome-ih5-ipod-alarm-clock.htm
    I hope this works for you!

  • My new iphone5 will not charge,any suggestions

    Hello, my new iphone5 will not charge, when I plugged it in to recharge, it was making beeping sounds for about 5 minutes then stopped, any suggestions? thanks

    First of all, you'd probably want to move this question out of iPod classic category to iPod touch one.
    Try reconnecting your cable. Try connecting to your computer instead of wall socket, or vice versa.
    Try resetting, restoring, restoring from backup. Make sure there's nothing wrong with your cable and try another one. The problem might be in your connector or the cable, if so — you might want to ask for a repair in your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Reseller.

  • My ipod is not charging..and the headphones...

    My ipod is not charging. When I plug the cord into the ipod the ipod says "Firewire connections are not supported. To tranfer songs, connect the usb cable provided" or it says "the current accessory is not supported by this ipod." This is the same cord I have been using since i got this ipod 2 years ago. So I know this is not the wrong cord. (I have a 30g video fifth generation ipod)
    Also the right side of my head phones dont work in the ipod...I know its the ipod because both sides of the headphones work in my laptop and in other mp3 players...I think my ipod is gone for good but can anyone help me

    Sounds like you have damage to your logic board. How far did you drop the iPod, and did it hit on a hard surface?
    You can send it to http://www.iresq.com and for $9 they will diagnose it and email you an estimated cost to fix it. You can Google for other 3rd party repair sites.
    If your iPod is more than 2 years old it can't possibly be under warranty so you can't send it in for warranty repair. You can trade it in at an Apple Store for 10% off the price of a new one, or you could sell it on eBay or Craigslist.

  • My ipod will not charge from a wall socket but will charge using the same cable if the usb end is plugged into a computer or an airport power source. My iphone and ipad charge fine on the same cable usin ghte same wall plug in the same wall socket?

    My ipod will not charge from a wall socket but will charge using the same cable if the usb end is plugged into a computer or directly into an airport power source. My iphone and ipad charge fine on the same cable using the same wall plug in the same wall socket. This makes no sense but I see that it has been posted as a problem elsewhere. This must be due to some kind of degredation of the Ipod. . It is not fixed by IOS resets as others have noted.
    Has anyone asked Apple directly about this?
