I hope you get this before Apple bumps my response. I and everyone I know that has a 5th generation Ipod has the same trouble as you. Don't bother sending it in to Apple because they will just tell you there isn't anything wrong with your unit and send it back. I have had my 60 gb since September and it has crapped out on me more times than I care to count and these are waaayyyy too expensive for this B.S.!!! Read this article, printed it is 9 pages but it may help you:

With all the people having this problem I can not believe that apple is not doing something about it or a least giving an intelligent answer to this question.

My ipod 60gb classic is showing as fully charged until I connect it to my pc when it comes up with the error message, 'please wait very low battery' and the little wheel goes round and nothing happens, can anyone explain why this is and what i can do?
I have worked my way through the assistant and nothing works. I have tried connecting in disc mode but although the screen on the ipod is showing that the device is charged and that it is in disc mode as soon as I connect it to the computer it comes up with the error message 'please wait very low battery' and stays like that until I disconnect when it appears to be OK again. I have tried on both pc and mac.
BTW the ipod is an ipod video not classic if that makes any difference.
Thanks -
"please wait very low battery" keeps after 1 hour charging
I keep getting the folowin message after more than one hour charging " please wait very low battery "
Always connect the iPod to a USB2.0 port at the back of your PC.
Dont connect to low power USB ports, on the fron of the PC, dont use USB Hubs, (may cause Sync problems and coruupt filesytem)
if you are using a Mac, dont connect to the USB port on the keyboard. -

"Please wait, very low battery" display
Hi,
My iPod is displaying the message "please wait, very low battery" on the dark screen with a picture of a battery. I have tried to reset it (holding down menu and select button) but the apple logo comes up (on a very dark screen as well) and then it goes back to the low battery message. I have had it plugged into a USB for 2 hours so I don't see how it could still be very low battery to the point where the screen does not even light up.
Any suggestions?
ThanksIt's likely that the battery is shot and in need of replacement. You can choose to have Apple replace it or a third party repair company at a lower cost.

Please wait very low battery and apple logo comes up after some time make some noice
My ipod classic 30 GB shows "please wait very low battery" and apple logo comes up after some time make some noice
Try the Hrad reset, especially must charge the battery for at least 2 hours.
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.

OK, here is my problem...i leave my ipod classic charging for 2 days and it still has the 'Please wait, very low battery" sign! what should i do? Please answer!
When you connect the iPod to the adapter or PC, you should see either of these signs on the iPod Screen .
If you just get
It may mean that your Adapter is not giving enough juice, because
the adapter or the cable is defective or
your bottom dock connector is dirty with lint or dirt.

Fitted new battery - "Please wait, very low battery" + cogwheel
Have just got hold off a old ipod 5th gen, 30gb black.
plugged in, no response so replaced the battery with new one
Have replaced the battery, connected to computer (mac) via usb - have had it connected for over 4 hours now and it still says 'Please wait very low battery" with cogwheel spinning constantly.
Have tried resetting - menu+center
??Think it was the connector from the back plate to the middle -of the board - just underneath the display that was probably wonky - blew around etc... also the black sticker on the battery was loose - so taped it up with a little selotape - and it worked BUT the click wheel / center button doesnt respond - how easy is this to fix / costs / or is there anything i should look for / do to try and fix it?
btw, the hold switch turns it on/off -
i was upgrading my ipad, for atleast 4 hours.. the screen remains itunes.. and i dont know what to do.. please help me
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or Later

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Hi, Im trying to convert a PDF into a weblink that I can post onto social media but dont know how, can you help please?
You need to upload it to some kind of public server, or file-sharing site (like Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.), and then post the link to it.

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings -
I was downloading apps that i deleted and my 4th generation froze. So i turned it off and restarted it and nothing happened. It is just showing me the apple screen after you restart it. I dont know what to do please help!
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. -

Hi All
I upgraded my ipad to ios7 but now it is asking for a passcode. I never had a passcode on it before, now dont know what to do.
HELP
GabrielleI had to call Apple Support and they walked me through the restore procedure.
We first had to delete the old account from iCloud and then do a restore from iTunes.
Even with Apple Support's help, it took a few tries.
We had skipped the adding a passcode during the ios7 update.
The helpdesk said we must have inadvertently, but I know that we did not:
i.e. we just pushed a "Don't add a passcode" button (I don't remember the exact text)
on the touchscreen and nothing else.
We had to restore from a few month old iTunes backup -
The lady at the Apple Support call desk was very nice and helpful, -

Here's what I did today and so far so good.
I charged the ipod using a firewire cable, which seems to work for charging as does my other auxiliary chargers, car etc. When on these powered chargers the ipod works fine, but no ability to sync.
Did many resets while on the charger.
I put the hold button on and very quickly swapped from the firewire to the USB, low and behold it boots, syncs and charges.
I did a full restore and disabled disk use.
It's syncing now, I'll let you know if it messes up again.
