When I use AC Adapter, Ipod turns on and off

I will try to explain this the best I can, here goes...
When I use all the battery in my ipod, so that it is completely dead, and I attempt to plug it into the AC adapter, the ipod turns on and off. I can hear the hard drive clicking on and off. It will not stay on; it just keeps doing this. However, if I plug the ipod into my computer, it will charge.
Do people think that this is a problem with my ipod or with the AC adapter?
I'd appreciate any feedback or if people have had a similar problem, let me know.
Thanks so much.

  • How to use a slider to turn on and off lights

    Hi guys. i am fairly familiar with Labview now but cant seen to get my head around this problem. i have a slider which is numbered from 1 to 10. below the slider i inserted 10 LED lights. my aim sis to use the slider to turn on and off the lights. for an exmaple, when i set the slider to one, the light on the far left should go on. when i set the slider to 2, the first light should go on and the second light next to it should go on, and the pattern continues. i thought of using the number to array boolean but it didnt seem to do the trick. could you please help me out. i have attached the basic layout of how i wanted the objects to be arranged
    kind regards

    wow! simplicity at its best! thats really straight forward to understand. i think you are right about making complicated circuits. the reason why i had asked to know how to do this was because i wanted to learn how to control motor directions using a slider. so after i thought i had got the easiest way of giving out 2 different outputs using a slider, i replaced the lights with switches that changed the direction of the motor. i successfully did this for the first motor and it rotated fairly well, but wanted to control 4 in total. so i simply copied and pasted the code and re-asigned the switches to different motors. when i did this, the results did work BUT the motors went very very slow. the movement was not steady and kept skipping. i think this its due to the coding being overly complicated thefore causing a serious lag. if you could please have a look

  • IPOD turns on and off

    All the Ipod does is turn on and off, on and off and then a large battery appears in the window. Then turns on and off a few more times. Reseting the Ipod doesnt work. Any suggestions before it meets my wall?

    Quick update:
    I brought my iPod in. They told me there was nothing they could do to fix it. They simply gave me a brand new one and sent the other one back to Apple in Cupertino, California.
    FYI: I think that either the database got corrupted or the hard drive got damaged. I was using it with ephPOD on windows 98. If I were you i'd use it only with windows 2000, windows XP, or MAC OS X.

  • After fully charging and syncing, Ipod turns on and off indefinitely. Help!

    I just bought an 80g Ipod. I was very excited to upgrade. I followed the charging/syncing instructions to a tee. As soon as I ejected the Ipod and disconnected it from the computer, it began blinking on and off (the Apple image shows, then it goes black, the image returns, and so on). I've tried to reset the Ipod and it simply says "Disk Mode" and freezes. I've exchanged the Ipod twice and am now on the third - with same results. Any idea what the problem may be or how I might be able to fix it? Thanks for the help.

  • HT201406 Why is my ipod turning on aND off by its self

    my ipod is some how going crazy. My ipod goes crazy when iam charging it. And now out of no were it just started to turn off and on by it self.

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the article again.
    - If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod turns on and off, won't boot up or reset

    Hi all,
    I recently pulled my old iPod out of the closet, where's it's been since it stopped working two years ago. When I plug in it in to the AC and try to start it up, I get the Apple logo, but then it disappears--only to come back again. It just keeps doing this, even if I try the reset steps. It sounds like the drive is starting up and then shutting down repeatedly. I'm afraid that this might be something serious. Any help would be appreciated.

    Same here.
    Don't buy an ipod people!!
    I bought one 2 years ago. It broke 1 year later. It was replaced by apple (warranty), but again a year later that one broke. "Outside warranty" says apple.
    They told me I should get it repaired at my own cost but this would cost more than a new one.
    Thats 460 Euro down the drain.
    Go for Creative or Zune!

  • How to Set Automatic to turn on and off at specified time my TV with STB

    It seems very frustrating talking with Verizon tech support, that's why I turn to you guys to find if anyone knows the answer to my question above.,from my experience calling verizon for my tech support regarding fiosTV and most of my experience from Verizon are either inept and giving the customer the run around by keeping you on hold for the longest and not having the answer after all the time I spend with the tech on the phone or they will tell you that the that there is no such thing; and when you call again when you get another tech on the phone you get completely different answer if not an inept answer. 
    My Specific question is, if  I turned off my STB (top box) and my TV at a particular time; and I like my TV with STB to turn on at a specified time ( example I turned off my STB and TV at 9:00 PM ) and would like my TV with the STB to be turn on like 11:00 PM to turn off at 12:00 midnight by itself, not to record  but just to turn on as reminder and to serve as power saver incase I fall asleep ( this is just example scenario). How would I do that? The manual of either remote control or the STB does not provide that information. My television manual say the TV can but I can not turn it on automatically with the STB connected.
    I called Verizon tech, he first sounded inept and sounded like he just talking from a scripted lines, and would not tell me straight forward that he does not know the answer; I  explained that I switched to Verizon Fios for its claim in high and advance technology as they compare themselves by far higher in technology as compared with Cable or direct TV, and with Cable Vision I was able to used the above automatic turn on and off with the remote; I asked for his supervisor or maybe more expert tech support, He turned over the call to his supervisor, who told me that the STB or the remote Fios TV does not have that level of capability which sounded to me like a joke, he also told me that the STB can not be turn on and off because STB is always set as on; I told him I can see the green light turns on and off on the STB each time I press the ON button on the Verizon Remote; he defended that its always on because the timer is ON, and he told me instead FIOSTV has another feature that although it will not turn the feature on and off automatically, it will serve as reminder, I asked him How to carry out that function, the tech supervisor said  to me to just press the record button on my remote, which I know right away that it will just record, and  I told him that its not what I want to accomplish, this Tech Supervisor insisted that it will not record but will set to notify me, but surely it did record and it just wasted and used my DVR memory capacity the time when he put me on hold for a long period of time, I knew it recorded because the red button on the STB/TVR was on., and it did not notify me in anyway what time the TV and STB will turn on. That was a complete  waste of time, instead of him getting the issue to higher level of their tech support and try to research thru and get back to the client. To me, simple feature as this, is such absurd to claim that fiosTV has more advance features than others, where infact they can not even have their tech support answer such simple question.  
    Any one here has any idea, please help.

    The set top box does not offer any auto on or auto off feature. 
    you can only do that if your TV offers the feature. 
    If neither your TV nor the STB offer that feature (in this case the stb does not offer) then you can go to a radio shack or a similiar store and purchase a AC timer.  they make them and you plug them into your wall, they are very cheap.
    I have had directv and fios and neither of my systems did an automatic on or off. 
    BUT my samsung TV upstairs does have that feature (auto on and off)   and I have not checked my mitsubishi downstairs. 
    so you may want to check your settings on your TV to see if it will do it, like my samsung does.

    My iPod touch is stuck in landscape view.  Even when held vertically if I open facebook or safari is rotates to landscape.  Have tried turning on and off, same results. Any ideas to fix?

    Try switching it back from landscape to vertical. Or, go to settings and see if you have any special setting turned on that enable only landscape view. Also, try hooking it up to your computer and charging it to see what happens.

    With iOS 7 on the iPad, you turn Private  Browsing on and off by tapping the URL field.  The screen that  opens up has your bookmarks on it.  In the bottom left corner is a hot button marked 'PRIVATE'.  Tap on the word 'PRIVATE' to turn private browsing on or off.  Yeah, there aren't any instructions anywhere that I can find to do this, and if you follow Yahoo's instructions, they don't work.  This doesn't happen with the previous Apple OS, and you can restore your iPad to the older OS. 

  • When to use Apps adapter and DB adapter?

    Hi All,
    For invoking a PL/SQL API(either a custom or System API) in Oracle Applications from BPEL Process which is better to use?When to use Apps adapter and DB adapter?
    Thanks,
    ChitraDevi

    As Sen correctly states for the DB adapter you have to set the context manually using the fun_global.apps_initilize or Fnd_Client_Info.SET_ORG_CONTEXT. This is usually done in a wrapper procedure.
    I wouldn't say I'm an expert in this field as I have only used the APPS adapter for 11.5.10. I believe things have changed a bit for R12, but from my experience with APPS, things change very slow so although R12 is 10g App Server I'm sure the principles are the same.
    Sen is also correct saying that base tables are not accessible via the APPS adapter. Basically the apps adapter is there to expose services, base tables are not services.
    My recommendation would be different based on the experience of the developer(s). The APPS adapter simplifies the development but may not have the flexibility. The apps adapters sweet spot is those services that are difficult to integrate with, e.g. business services, xml gateway. If these are used heavily I would use the APPS adapter.
    What I personally do, even if I'm not using APPS, if I'm connecting to the database I will implement a function, stored procedure, or AQ. It is a little more hassle during deployment, but it treats it more like a service and you are not impacted if the tables change. This is not an endorsement for you to go down this path because it does have a requirement to have PL/SQL knowledge, and it breaks the notion of service abstraction from the DB.
    cheers

  • X61 Hang when not using AC adapter

    X61 will hang (on the login page, sometimes when using the laptop halfway), when not using AC adapter.I've format the system, install drivers (system update) and application.
    anyone encounter this issue?

    I notice if I disable Atmel TPM (from Device Manager), the system works normal when not connect to AC adapter.
    I did not have most of the Lenovo software installed. Only have System Update, Fingerprint software & Power Manager.
     Will there be any issue if I disable the Atmel TPM ?

  • My ipod just turns on and off when I plug it into my computer instead of syncing and charging. What do I do?

    I have updated my itunes, bought a new charger cord and everything. My computer doesn't recognize it, and it just turns on and off. Help?

    Use the wall-mount charger that came with the unit and charge it overnight.  Do not use a computer USB port.  Do not use an iPod/iPhone charger.
    Battery technology has come a long way in the past several years.  Your battery might be totally discharged but I doubt that it's truly dead.  Good luck and please post back with results.
