Replacement iPod won't charge

Recently I had to get my 80GB iPod sent into Apple and replaced. When i connect the replacement that I received to my PC it won't charge or be recognized or anything like that. But when i hooked the iPod up to my Xbox 360, it acts like it is charging showing the "very low battery, please wait" message but i have let it sit there for over a day and it won't charge just says the same low battery message. Please help!

It sounds like you're owed another replacement.

  • 5G 30G Ipod won't charge or sync

    My Ipod won't charge when connected to my laptop. It does charge when plugged into my car radio transmitter and dock. When I plug it into my laptop fully charged I get a message from windows explorer asking me if I want to scan and clean it to repair any problems. I have done this. It starts to sync with itunes (still fully charged) and then I get an error message saying the disk cannot be read. When I disconnect the Ipod there is almost no charge on the battery. I have restored the Ipod through itunes and reinstalled itunes.
    I have replaced the battery and charged it again but I am still having the same problems.
    I have synced an ipod shuffle on the same computer with no problems.
    Any help would be appreciated! thanks.

    come on guys? can anybody help?
    I have run the manual diagnostics and the USB cable is recognized. I let the battery completely discharge for 5 days, rebooted it up and its draining power from the usb cable to operate, but there is no software recognition (other than in diagnostics) of the fact that the cable is plugged in. In disk mode it shows charging but does not recognize it is plugged into a computer. In normal mode it does not show charging or syncing. OS X does not acknowlede the ipod exists and windows does not recognize the device (several computers, all recognize other ipods).
    I'm sure this must be a software issue but i cannot restore as i cannot get the computer to recognize the ipod! Help

  • What do i do if my ipod won't charge?

    What can I do if my ipod won't charge?

    Find a more powerful USB port or buy a wall-mount charger from Apple.

  • Old ipod won't charge

    Older ipod won't charge.  30 gig, white, I've shown videos on it, so it's one of the earlier color iPods.  I gave it to my mom 2 years ago and she never used it. I've tried a wall charger and plugged it into my computers, no luck.  I can't get it to turn on at all, so can't reset or restore.
    Thanks for any help!

    Checked some identifiers on Apple website, apparently it's a 5th generation.

  • My iPod won't charge - on any power outlet.

    My iPod won't charge - it said for a while that the battery was empty (to the point of unusable) when I plugged it in, and left it plugged in for a a couple of days and now it will switch on but the battery is empty. I have tried resetting it (menu and middle button), and I have also tried to drain the battery and charge, but it does not work. there are no apple stores where I am /no genius bar so I can't go in store - and the model is recently refurbished - I swapped it out a few months ago - so shouldn't be facing any problems. Please help!

    I have also tried charging it through several computers and numerous
    power outlets but none work.

  • My 5th Gen. iPod won't charge

    I recently got my iPod replaced when the screen was cracked. So I got a brand new one and a yesterday it wouldn't charge. It worked fine for about a month. I didn't get a new cable, I kept the one I had that worked fine. I plug it in and it just won't charge. I tried other sources like my iPod speaker that also worked fine before. It even plays music through it, which means I know it's connected, but it's not charging! I really do not think that it's the cables. Please help!

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - 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.

  • 160GB iPod won't charge

    I purchased a 160GB iPod, refurbished a couple of months ago, and now, it won't charge. Typically, the iPod is docked to my iMac (w/no sleep mode to help it charge overnight) and it'll have a full or close to full charge. Today, it registered about 20%, and had less than 2 hours of performance before completely dying. Now, at home, I can't get the battery to charge over 20%, and I've docked it directly to my computer and used an Apple-brand AC adapter. Is there something I can do to get the battery charging properly again, or has it already died?

    Hey there,
    So have you had a chance to try all the troubleshooting solutions provided in this article?

    If not, it sounds like your iPod's battery is dead and will need to be replaced. If it is still under warranty, you may be able to get it serviced [HERE|https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do;jsessionid=46D568E93837A0AB5CB 2FEF2C26FC226].

  • Ipod won't charge due to water damage?

    Unfortunately, I dropped my Ipod in the sink and as soon as I can, I wiped all the water off and dried it.
    Good news is, It works.
    But Its having problems with the speakers and the charging (more importantly, the charging)
    I removed any debris inside the charging port but it still won't charge, it does charge IF I push the charging cable really hard into the port but obviously I wouldn't be doing that for a long period of time and it might damage the port (even further)
    So what do you guys think?
    Thanks

    Make an appointment at the genius bar. It will need to be replaced. And STOP trying to use it. It's a fire hazard now.

  • IPod won't charge with car charger or on stereo dock..

    A couple months ago, my iPod Nano (1st gen) stopped charging with the car charger and my stereo dock for no apparent reason. Is there some sort of setting that got switched in iTunes that prevents it from charging from other sources, besides the computer?
    It charges just fine when I connect it to my PC...but it just doesn't charge when I connect it to the car charger, or my stereo dock...
    Thanks in advance.

    No, iTunes probably wouldn't be affecting your iPod's charging from anything but a computer.
    Have you tried resetting your iPod?
    Press and hold the Menu and Select (center) buttons together for about 10 seconds.
    If that doesn't seem to work (you might need to try it quite a few times), try taking a look at this:

  • Help please.  My newish Ipod won't charge and won't connect to itunes

    Hello,
    I have had a 20 gb ipod for a month or two and just the other day I put it to charge (not for the first time) and it didn't connect. I have a docker and that didn't work either. I tried to connect to itunes on both laptop and home computer and it didn't register the ipod.
    I guess there might be a loose connection in the bottom of the ipod? I am still under guarantee but can't make head nor tail of the site. If I call I get charged automatically 37 pounds for on line support (I am not within the 90 days as I bought this ipod on Ebay) Do I just send the whole thing in without really knowing what is wrong with it?
    Has anyone had a similar problem? i successfully have connected both to the charger and itunes over the past few weeks though there were a couple of occasions where the ipod didn't get recognised by itunes.
    Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • IPod Won't charge when put onto dock

    So 2 years ago I got a Phillips Dock for an iPod and I got an iPod 5. The dock was for an iPod 4th gen so I bought an adapter it plays my music but won't charge my iPod....why?

    Have you went to Phillips' support site?
    Maybe the dock does not provide enough power to charge it with the screen on. If you connect to dock and with the screen off come back hours later is it charged?

  • Replaced battery; won't charge beyond 27%. Some settings lost on restart

    I recently took advantage of Apple's replacement program for overheating PB batteries, although I hadn't experienced any actual problems. After I installed the replacement my battery won't charge past 27%, plus the date and time reset to 1969 and my AirPort network settings are lost whenever I restart or shut down.
    The power indicator in the menu bar constantly shows ""Calculating."
    I've already tried resetting the PMU and allowing the battery to discharge fully.
    Any ideas?

    And now for the good news…
    The Genius Bar at the KC AppleStore was the source of the solution. They diagnosed a bad battery (the one I'd received in the PB battery replacement program) and changed it out. All's well now, including the "disappearing" settings.

  • Replaced ipod won't turn on

    I have a question. I got a replacement ipod late feb of 06 cause my old one died. Now a month and half later my new ipod is having a problem. I took my ipod to work saturday and it worked fine. Then when I got off from work I looked in my bag I saw the screen was black. I tried the hold switched off and on. That didn't work I tried pressing the select button and the menu buttons togther that doesn't work and I have had it charged up on my adapotor since saturday. I even plugged it in my computer and it just dosn't come on. now apple logo. I can't even restore it. So you think I need to have someone look at it

    A similar thing happened to me. I got my iPod, then exactly a year later I needed a replacement. About 5 or 6 months after that, the replacement started acting weird. The screen would freeze, and the battery wouldn't last long. I took it into the store this afternoon and they gave me another replacement. I don't know why because the 90 day warranty was up, but it seems a bit ridiculous to need a replacement 6 months after getting a new iPod.
    My advice to you is to take your iPod in ASAP. I don’t know exactly what their policy is, but you don’t want to be stuck with an expired warranty and a broken iPod.

  • 3rd Gen iPod won't charge with USB connector - Is that normal?

    I have the above iPod, and I noticed that when I tried to plug it in to charge it with a newer USB connector it will not charge. It will however, let me update my iTunes music. Is this normal for an older iPod?

    I believe that is correct. That iPod was often called the iPod with 'dock connector', and as this chart shows, won't charge via USB.
