Something wrong with my Ipod Shuffle 2nd Gen.

I juz sync music to my little shuffle, disconnect it. Then I didnt use it for about 24 hrs. After that, I try to turn it on. The Led (next to On/Off Button) is Green. The other led had no reaction for watever i press the buttons. So I turn it off. After 5 secs, I turned it on. (trying to reset it). But .. still the same.
I connected it to my laptop throught the dock obviously with the switch button is OFF. The Green Led(next to the on.off button) blinked in a tictac then went away.
I connected the shuffle to my laptop, this time with a awitch button is ON. The Green Led is ready, the other still has no reaction. When i put it on the dock, the Green led is still Green . But it is not detected by my computer and itunes also.

What is wrong with my ipod touch 2nd gen?

Ive had this iPod since mid 2010. It's running iOS 4.2.1 and it's not jailbroken. A few months ago I encountered a problem with it. It started to fast forward my songs and pause them and skip them as if it had a mind of it's own. I thought it was a one off and it never really happened after that. Yesterday something happened to it which forced it into recovery mode and I had to restore it to factory settings. Today I added some new songs onto it and I starte listening and all I could hear was music and no singing, then I could faintly hear the singing. I thought there was something wrong with the song so I changed it and it was the same with the next one. I've tried 3 different sets of heaphones which all work on other devices so it's not the headphones. So my iPod has kind of turned into a karaoke machine but with some songs it works ok for a while but then messes up. Also I've noticed that the fastforwarding thing has become much much worse after I restored it.
I'm really stuck. What should I do? Everything else works fine on it. All my apps are ok. Just the music player is stuffed. Could the headphone jack be broken? It worked fine yesterday before I restored it. Should I restore it again? I've already tried restarting and resetting it and neither of them worked. Also I don't have much space left on it, should I take off the movie that ive got on it? Maybe the memory is kind of choked up as well? Thanks for any help guys. As I said pretty much everything works fine on it and I'm trying to not buy a new iPod if I can help it. Oh and sometimes when I'm typing and press the backspace button once or twice it goes and deletes everything on it's own. Things run slow-ish as well. Anyway to improve that?
Oh and may I also add when I can hear the singing in the songs sometimes it's normal, sometimes it sounds like they're singing underwater, sometimes it sounds like they're singing live, sometimes it sounds like they're robots...it's not how the songs are meant to sound. They didn't sound like that before and they don't sound like that on my laptop. There's something wrong with my iPod but idk if it's the headphone jack or a software/hardware problem. :/ :(

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- 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.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Kernel Panic - with my iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen

Grrrr........
Yes, I sent a report to Apple.
I had not used my Shuffle in a while, so I decided to plug it in. The thing gave me a warning about how the system does not have enough power for the USB device to operate, and the screen went dark and gave me the Kernal warning.
I restarted as instructed and everything seems OK, but grrrrrrr..........

How do you know if won't charge with itunes open? The USB port should be charging unless the PC is off, regardless of what software is running. But if that is the case, eject the ipod and close itunes.
You don't state whether you get any error messages. Does in give you a message the its syncing then finish and no songs transferred? Have you checked your settings on what library (music) it is being filled from?

Will iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen work with 1st Gen USB Power Adapter?

Hi.
I have the iPod USB Power Adapter (M9837ZM/A) and was wondering if it will also work with the iPod shuffle 2nd Gen?
Mine only lists the original shuffle (naturally) and I just realized that Apple apparently re-designed the USB Power Adapter (MB051LL/A), which does list the 2nd Gen shuffle (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=E82 45892&nplm=MB051LL/A).
Does anyone know if I can use my power adapter with my new 2nd Gen shuffle?
Thanks!

Will I be still pleasantly surprised when my iPod is fried?
So, what you're saying is, that whatever happens, it cannot do harm to the iPod?
If that's so, i'll give it a try.

Ipod Shuffle 2nd gen

having major problems with my ipod shuffle 2nd gen. I installed i tunes 7.02, then installed my new shuffle. I checked the auto update of the ipod and the ipod then loaded all of the songs it could from my library onto the piod. I attempted to change the songs on the ipod and i was given a 50 error code and told that the ipod could not be written to or read from. I restarted the shuffle then restarted my pc. I tried to restore the ipod only to get the 1418 error, the ipod now has no songs on.
Please help???????

This problem pops up since the very first days of the 2G Shuffle and Apple continues to ignore it or does not know how to solve it. My educated guess is that it's got something to do with an older iTunes file that sits on your HD somewhere and prevents the Shuffle from working. I had the same 1418 and 50 error code problems with 3 different Shuffles (exchanged by Apple because they said it's a hardware problem) and worked through all these "helpful" Apple support documents and nothing solved the issue. The (I admit: very poor) solution I found is: a) using the Shuffle on a computer that never had iTunes installed before (uninstall and new install does not work) or, if you don't have access to any: b) do a clean installation (with HD formatting) of Windows and directly install the latest iTunes version 7.0.2.16 and SURPRISE SURPRISE - all 3 Shuffles worked without any problem.

Ipod Shuffle 2nd gen isn't recognized by my MacBook with new cable.

I have an Ipod Shuffle 2nd gen, I used to charge it with the original dock that came with it, but my cat ate that and I had to buy a new cable. I'm a newbie to computer stuff so bear with me if the info I provide is insufficient. The cable I bought looks like this:
http://www.reghardware.com/2009/03/13/ifixitshuffledisassembly/
But now when I connect it to my MacBook Pro it won't get recognized at all! Does this new sync cable only work with the latest generations of Ipod Shuffle? What gives?

The Apple store shows that the type of USB cable you bought is only compatible with the 3G and 4G shuffles.

I have iPod shuffle 2nd gen. 1GB, how can I autofill it with more than 70 songs?

I have iPod shuffle 2nd gen. 1GB, how can I autofill it with more than 70 songs, when I used to be able to get more than l20+ songs?

Is your shuffle full after the Autofill? Does the playlist you selected as the source have more than 70 songs?
My 2nd gen 1GB shuffle currently has 140 songs on it, almost 100% full using Autofill. The number of songs depends on two factors. One is the average length of the songs. Longer songs take more space. A 20-minute symphony takes more space than a 4-minute pop song. The other key factor is the bit rate used for compression.
All of my songs are compressed using the AAC encoder at 256 kbps, which is Apple's current standard and the setting used for downloads from the iTunes Store. The same songs compressed at 128 kbps AAC takes up half the space. 320 kbps MP3 would use more space per song. If a lossless format, such as Apple Lossless or AIFF is used to encode, the sound quality is the best possibe, but the file size per song is MUCH higher.
If you think there is problem on the shuffle, you can try doing a Restore in iTunes. The Restore button is on the shuffle's Settings tab. This will erase the shuffle, re-install its software, and set it to default settings. If there is data corruption on the shuffle's storage that is causing this problem, a Restore should fix it.

Faulty port on the computer
If something is wrong with your computer's FireWire or USB port, it may not supply power to iPod. Note: Only iPod mini can get power from a high-powered USB port using the supplied cable.
Check the connections.
Try another known-good FireWire (or high-powered USB) port on a different computer if available.
If you do not have access to another computer, use the Apple iPod Power Adapter.
Plug in one end of the FireWire cable to the Apple iPod Power Adapter and the other end to your iPod.
Plug the Apple iPod Power Adapter into a working electrical outlet.
If you have an iPod (with Dock Connector) model, connect the FireWire end to the Apple iPod Power Adapter and the dock connector to iPod. Warning: Never plug the dock connector end of the FireWire cable into a computer's FireWire port.
If this resolves the issue, consult your service and support guide to see how you can have the computer's port repaired.

Ipod shuffle 2nd Gen- Not Recognised by Windows 8.1 Laptop

Hi All,

at the same time, the same ipod i can connect and use at windows XP computer.
is anyone there to help me out.
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, I use a Mac; I'm not a day-to-day Windows user... When you connect your USB flash drive, it should appear as a device in a Windows view, like the one you provided as a screenshot. When you connect your shuffle, if things are working normally, the shuffle should similarly appears as a device. Whether it is recognized as an iPod or not, it should appear as a device. If it does not, that means the USB (3.0) port (on your laptop) does not see that you have connected the shuffle. If it does (appear in Windows), that's good news. You may be able to trouble-shoot and fix the problem, using this document
iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes - Apple Support
I suggested trying a self-powered USB 2.0 hub (if you have one), because the hub should be recognized as a device by Windows. In the screenshot, it looks like there are two hubs already connected ("Generic USB Hub"), unless that is something internal that is identified as a "hub." If a hub is older and works with the shuffle, then your laptop may be able to connect to the shuffle through the hub.
Here are two other things you can try.
(1) You said the shuffle still works with your older PC. Connect it to iTunes on that computer, and go to the shuffle's Settings screen (select shuffle in iTunes). There is a checkbox for Enable disk use. Check that box and Apply. With this setting enabled, the shuffle acts like a USB flash drive (to Windows). Maybe that will let Windows see it, and then iTunes will also see it (as an iPod). NOTE: When disk use is enabled, you need to Eject the iPod in iTunes before physically disconnecting it, because the iPod's disk is continuously mounted by the system.
(2) If the above does not help, connect it to iTunes on the older PC, and do a Restore on the shuffle. This will erase the iPod, reinstall its software, and set it to default settings.
Restoring iPod to factory settings - Apple Support
It's a long shot, but maybe there is some kind of odd data corruption on the shuffle's storage that is causing the laptop to not see it (even though the old PC can see it fine). After doing the Restore on the older PC, connect it to the laptop.
