The battery won't charge while plugged in.

I have a ten-year-old iPod video 30g whose battery died several days ago. I bought a new battery and changed it into my old thing. However it won't charge while plugged in. I mean, actually the charging battery sign will show but it's still empty when unplugged. Now the battery has run out and while I plugged it in it will show "please wait, very low battery". But it just won't get started since no eletricity is being transferred.
Please help. Thanks!

Does your iPod appear in iTunes or on your computer as external storage, if you connect it now with no battery inside. I know older iPods (4th gen and earlier) function normally as an iPod without a battery connected, as long as it is connected to power with the docking cable. Not sure about the 5th gen iPod.
If it you can get it recognized by the computer, you can off-load the songs. iTunes syncing is generally in one direction only, from the computer's iTunes library to iPod. So you cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
I guess you do not have the original photos? When photos are synced by iTunes to the iPod, iTunes optimizes the photos to fit the iPod's small screen and take up less space on the iPod, and the photos are stored in a single database file (instead of separate image files). The only easy way to recover photos from an iPod is IF (when you synced the photos), you had a setting enabled on the iPod's Photos screen iTunes (where you set up syncing for photos). The setting is to "include full-resolution photos when syncing" (that may not be the exact wording). If that setting was enabled, iTunes puts a full-resolution copy of the image files on the iPod, in a folder called Photos, which you can access (using Windows Explorer or Finder on a Mac) by turning ON the Enable disk use setting.
Otherwise, the photos on the iPod are low-res versions of the original photos, and they are not directly accessible on the iPod. There may be third-party utilities that can access the photos on the iPod, and save them off on your computer's drive.

TS3274 iPad won't charge while plugged into computer

My iPad won't charge while plugged into computer

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

Macbook Pro 2009 Battery won't charge when plugged in

So recently i've experienced a problem in which my Macbook Pro 15 inch (2009 model A1286) would not charge even while plugged in. So i thought the problem was that my battery had to be serviced for a while now and it said it wouldn't harm my computer so i used it for a bit longer and finally bought a new replacement battery. After installing this NEW battery the same problem still occurs. While going on like youtube or listening to music the computer would flash green for a bit, say "battery is not charging" then go back to orange but the percentage would slowly decrease instead of the opposite. I've tried the SMC reset but the problem still occurs. I am using an 85W magsafe power adapter which is the correct charger for my model so I don't believe that is the issue because i've been using this same charger for a couple years and nothing like this has happened before. One thing i've noticed is that while in the system profiler section I see that the AC charger information only shows that i am using 60W but on the charger it clearly states 85W. Any solutions would be appreciated this has been driving me crazy and i already invested in a new battery I would really like a solution that doesn't require me to buy more stuff. Thank you.

Try a friends charger to rule out the charger (or visit an Apple store to try one there). Perform the SMC reset again and also reset the PRAM

Battery does not charge while plugged in

My computer is plugged into the charger and does not lose power while plugged in, however, it does not charge either. It currently sits at 63% power and says "Battery is not charging" when I mouse over the battery icon and verifies that it is plugged into the power adapter. Basically the problem is that it doesn't lose power when its charged in, but the battery isn't recharging either. The light on the charger isn't lighting up either, however, I've verified that its the computer's problem by plugging my charger into my roommates identical laptop. Any idea what the issue is? Thanks everyone.

I also have this problem with my Mid-2007 MBP.
I have reset the SMC to no avail.
I've noticed that if my battery appears to be charging (albeit slowly) and then I try to play World of Warcraft, it switches to "Not Charging" once the fans startup.
I just had it serviced and they replaced the logic board 1 wk ago and then I upgraded to Snow Leopard. Could any of this have an effect?
Battery health is fine as far as I can tell (below is the info from system profiler).

My iPhone 4s won't turn on and the battery won't charge

Hello,my iPhone 4s battery has been completely drained and when I try to charge it, it shows the screen telling you to plug in the charger (even though the charger IS plugged in) Is something wrong?

Sorry, but we can't help you with problems occurring after you have opened and tried to fix some hardware of the phone, due to the Terms of Use of these discussions.
The warranty for the phone is gone now and Apple will not service the phone either anymore. You'll have to look for a 3rd party repair center to get that fixed.

My battery does not charge while plugged (Windows 7)

Hello everyone,
Last week, I received my new ThinkPad Edge E545. Everything seems to work well except for 1 detail: while plugged, I get the message "plugged in, not charging".
Anyone can help me? Thank you!

Glad things have apparently resolved.
Is there anything specific you did that might help other members?
Thanks!

Battery won't charge, but will run on the adapter power.

I've had my MBP for about a month now. The problem I've had for the past few days is that the computer will work completely fine when it's plugged in, however the battery won't charge. Once the adapter gets removed, I get the popup that tells me that I'm on reserve battery power. When I click on the battery icon at the top right of the screen, it tells me that the battery is not charging, but it also tells me that the power source is the power adapter.

You need to take it to an Apple store or AASP and have them run a diagnostic on your battery and power adapter. If either is bad they will replace them, and if it's not the battery or power adapter, then it's probably the logic board.

Why the battery percentage decrease continuously while charging?

IPod touch won't charge while installed in vehicle through direct interface

Hello,
This just began happening about two weeks ago. The touch won't charge while installed in the car directly through the interface. I have tried three different set-ups so I know it is not the iPod cable or stereo. It seems to charge and hold said charge fine through wall plug or CP but while in the car it only seems to charge enough to continue playing and then when the car is off, it acts as though it is no longer connected and dies so when I start the car the next time, I have to wait for the unit to charge enough to play...
Oh and it is a 1st gen 8gb touch.
Is this the battery or a hardware issue with the touch itself?
Thanks for any help...
Nick

I have the same problem with my Audi and started when I installed the 3.0 update. Besides I can't use the Hi Fi Apple device, which I bought 3 years ago. I'm sure the update didn't take in considerations old interfaces and the HiFi.

New MBP battery won't charge unless closed

I've had my 17' MBP for 3 months and I'm having more issues with it than my last 2 macbooks combined. My problem now is that the battery won't charge unless the laptop is closed, and yes, I use only Apple authentic chargers. I first thought it was a bad charger, so I ordered a new one from Apple and it still won't charge while I"m using it. Any ideas on what to do? Or why this would happen. I'm also having problems with trying to restart it after software updates, it tells me that Mail won't close so I can't restart, even when I quit mail prior to initiating the restart.
I have a feeling I'll get my money's worth out of Apple care this time around and I like the removable/replaceable battery on the older laptops, I wish they wouldn't have changed that.
Thanks!
Kara

Went over my laptop with an Apple Genius today and did two things, one or both of which contributed to resolving this issue. The first thing was actually shutting the computer down and restarting it. I typically don't do that for weeks or months at a time and this can help some of the internal power settings establish a baseline.
The 2nd thing, which I think had the most impact, was to take the 980+ items on my desktop and move them into a single folder on my desktop. Each file icon on your desktop in OS X gets drawn using the same procedure as the one that renders an open Finder window. So each desktop icon is a separate object that gets managed, rendered and displayed by your graphics card and that means my graphics card was doing the work it would take to display over 1000 different Finder windows. That work is shouldered largely by the GPU, so it does not show up as CPU core activity in the Activity Monitor graphical plots, but it does seem to show up as part of the percentage of Finder CPU time that is reported in the list of running processes in Activity Monitor. That Finder CPU percentage was spiking a lot, as different events triggered a refresh of my desktop. I think it was this extreme overtasking of the GPU that was driving my laptop's power needs beyond what the adapter could supply. This would explain the correlation some people see with this problem and watching video, as well as a strange 25 second hang that I would see in the Finder after using Quick Look. This would also explain why people report having this problem recur after having their entire laptop or power adapter replaced. This is an easy fix to try, at least. YMMV.

Battery won't charge at all

I downloaded Coconut Battery and it shows that my battery is 31 months old and has 609 cycles on it. That is a lot, I know and it is probably time for a new battery, this point I won't argue. However, it shows the current battery capacity is 2857 mAh of 4200 (68%). But the current battery charge is 0%.
It lists the AC adapter is plugged in but says that the battery is NOT currently charging. So if it has 68% of its life left, why won't it charge at all? I have read many other posts and whenever someone says the battery won't charge, the advice is to condition the battery. But, I can't condition it if it won't charge. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

There are several reasons that a battery that won't charge. You can isolate the defective module be swapping modules:
- external power adapter
- battery
If replacing those don't work, it's probably the internal power supply.

Battery won't charge - no battery i

I have a Nomad Jubkebox Zen Extra, bought last year. I'm going on a trip and went to charge the battery and zip, nothing. I just get the "plug" icon that indicates external power. I do not get a "battery" icon. I have tried reset, recue mode for disk clean up, and still the battery won't charge. I have read some postings about jump starting, but they refer to the Zen Micro, am I to asssume it will work for my Zen Extra. Or should I try and find a new battery. I have to admit, I have not use the unit in quite some time. So it may have fully discharged, and I may be out of luck. Anyone who can assist me in this, I would appreciate you help.
tjgondek

If the player hasn't been used for a long time, and the battery was flat, the battery voltage may have dropped below the point it can be charged. There are a couple of things you can try listed here in the Zen FAQ at?Nomadness.net. Jump starting the battery is dangerous so you do this at your OWN RISK. Lithium Ion batteries can explode or catch fire in certain circumstances.
