Touch won't stops charging when my eMac goes to sleep

My new 2G Touch connects and syncs fine with my eMac. It charges fine too. But the minute my eMac goes to sleep, the charging stops. Can that be fixed? Is it a USB 1.1 problem?

My eMac did the same. The power going to Firewire and USB ports is shut off when the computer is asleep. Don't think it can be 'fixed' - it's just a design decision on the eMac. I believe newer Macs do continue to power external devices whilst asleep though...
Maybe you could plug it in to an externally powered USB hub?

  • My ipod touch suddenly stopped charging when connected to my iHome audio system.

    My iPod touch suddenly stopped charging when connected to my iHome audio.  I downloaded the newest update to iTunes and then when I plugged my iTouch into my iHome a message popped up that said the iPod touch was unable to charge on the device.

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod and dock for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • My iPhone won't stop vibrating when plugged into my Macbook.  All software is up to date.  iTunes just gives me an error.  No problems when plugged into a PC.  Why the nonstop vibrating!?

    My iPhone won't stop vibrating when plugged into my Macbook.  All software is up to date.  iTunes just gives me an error.  No problems when plugged into a PC.  Why the nonstop vibrating!?

    When I connect it to my iMac (with up-to-date OS X Yosemite 10.9.5) - it doesn't work.
    Specifically - iTunes automatically launches, but then quickly shows a dialog window that says, "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone. This device is no longer connected."
    Meanwhile - on my iPhone - in the upper right-hand corner (where the battery life is displayed) - you can see the "plugged in" icon (lightening bolt) rapidly blinking on and off.
    In other words - it seems like, when it's plugged in - it's rapidly connecting and disconnecting (several times per second).
    If I click "OK" on that dialog window on iTunes - it instantly pops back up, and continues to do so as long as I keep the iPhone plugged in.
    I have tried all and stile did not resolve my problem. I tried to restart both devices, try different cable (I have original cable). Both devices are new and software's are update it on latest versions.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

  • Battery stopped charging when Satellite C connected to the mains

    My battery has stopped charging when I plug my laptop into the mains. It continues to lose battery life until there is zero charge and then shuts down. Only then will it let me re-charge the battery.
    The only other option i seem to have is to switch my computer off, shut down all documents and leave it for 15 minutes before plugging into the mains.
    This is obviously very disruptive! Can anyone help?
    Many thanks

    Hi
    Im not quite sure whats wrong with your notebook
    Are you able to use the notebook without plugged in battery but connected to the mains?
    If the AC adaptor is ok, you should be able to use the notebook connected to the mains only
    Lets assume the AC adaptor is ok in such case either the battery or the power supply electronic which is part of the motherboard may malfunction
    Its difficult to say if your battery is faulty this needs to be tested but I think its not worth to purchase a new battery just for testing purposes therefore I would ask an technician to check this before buying a new part.
    PS: is your BIOS up to date?

  • Satellite P300 recently stopped charging when switched on

    My Toshiba P-300 has recently stopped charging when switched on.
    I have no concept as to how this has happened.
    It will charge fine when the laptop is either in sleep or switched off, but once it has been turned on it will not remain charging.
    Anybody know what's causing the problem, or has anyone else encountered this before.
    How was it solved?
    Thanks

    You must understand that charging process works automatically and it is controlled by power supply electronic. I dont know why this happen and answer to this can give you service provider after notebook check.
    Anyway, Satellite P300 is not the newest notebook model and described issue can be related to defective battery.
    When the notebook is ON and OS loaded remove battery for few seconds and put it back. Will charging procedure start or not?

    Purchase a wall charger for it instead.

    Music stops playing when the screen goes dark; the earbud jack is flush with the iPod. The Jack is hard to push in. what is the problem? How do I Fix it?

    And you are positive the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?
    Have you tried another set of headphones to see if the problem persisted? If so, it's likely that the headphone jack needs replacing.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    I have seen a lot of cases like your issue, and it's easy to solve.
    First, open Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and repair permissions. Sometimes, a permission can be damaged and it makes that an application doesn't work properly.
    If that doesn't work, open Finder, select Go menu > Go to Folder, type ~/Library/Prefereces, delete "com.apple.desktop.plist" and "com.apple.systempreferences.plist" and restart

    Hi,

    What do you mean by this sentence exactly.....top off?
    Any ideas?
    I would post in the MacBook Pro late 2008, 2009 usage forum. Might be hardware related and they know your Mac best.
    If you have one earlier then that, post in the Original MacBook Pro usage forum.In the meantime try a SMC reset again as it controls sleep, wake, shutdown and more.

  • Why does playback stop when my screen goes to sleep?

    Hi guys,
    I have a mid-2010 MBP with MAC OS X 10.7.3 and itunes10.5.3 (3).
    I've started to get this strange issue. When monitor goes to sleep, itunes playback stops.
    I tray to change enervy saver option and I did this,
    - computer sleep after 3h
    - monitor sleep after one minute.
    - itunes plays music
    After one minute, monitor goes to sleep and so does itunes, why this is happening to me ?!?!?
    This thing makes me crasy, since with other program playback (see VLC) I don't get this.
    Please somebody help me in undestanding and solving this!!!
    Thanks
    Riccardo

    The problem is that in lion "monitor sleep" means HDMI sleep too. So when you're listening to music with HDMI when your monitor goes to sleep, so it does your HDMI and audio through it!!
    That's really non sense

  • Apple tv loses home sharing when my computer goes into sleep mode

    Just recently, my Apple TV says that home sharing is off when my computer goes into sleep mode.  It never used to do that - any suggestions?

    I have the same problem here. Always back-ed up with Time Machine (OSX 10.9 Mavericks) to Western Digital drives. MyBooks, MyPassport 1TB (USB 3.0), all works fine. Time Machine is actually doing back-ups overnight. Since I got this new 2TB MyPassport Ultra USB 3.0 it's working perfect during days, but every morning when I wake up the MacBook from sleep, I get this annoying error:
    Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup to “MyPassportUltra”.
    Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder.
    Latest successful backup: Today, 02:27 am
    I'm also not able to write anything to that drive, or unmount it. It stil shows up in Finder, and I'm able to read all the data perfectly fine. When I do a Disk Utility Verify Disk directly after, I get this:
    Checking volume
    disk3s2: Scan for Volume Headers
    Invalid Volume Header @ 0: I/O error
    Invalid Volume Header @ 2000021315072: I/O error
    disk3s2 is not a CoreStorage volume
    Error: This disk needs to be repaired. Click Repair Disk.
    I don't click Repair Disk, as this will probably screw up my partition. Instead, I have to unplug the USB cable (which is bad for the drive, there's no time to park the drive's heads) and plug it in again. After clicking Backup Now, Time Machine immediately starts backing up, and the drive works fine the rest of the day.
    I contacted WD Support, and they are sending me a booster USB cable. As System Information reports, the drive receives enough power though:
    Current Available (mA):          900
    Current Required (mA):          224
    Unfortunately there's no firmware update for this drive, which will probably fix this. See this topic: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4196704.

  • When the system goes into sleep mode it keeps making a beeping noise. The system is shut down by holding the button in

    When the system goes into sleep mode it keeps making a beeping noise. The system is shut down by holding the button in
    and will then boot up again without any errors.
    I Have replace RAMS, Motherboard and Power Supply. I have check the Bio's  and Power setting on the unit. there is no place to cause this issue.
    Please help
    PC Power Tech

    Syamak,
    You didn’t specify where the beeping noise is coming from. 
    If it’s coming through your speakers, you could try to update your audio drivers since it’s possible they’re incorrectly sending a signal to the speakers as the audio chipset enters standby. 
    If the noise is coming from the motherboard, you’ll need to take a closer look at your system’s configuration or contact the manufacturer.
    I hope this helps.
