Why did my iD9 ihome stop charging my ipod touch?

I got the iD9 ihome for Christmas and at first, it played and charged my ipod touch perfectly. Now, however, it has stopped charging and only plays music through the speakers. I'm very frustrated, because one of the reasons I chose this ihome was because it would both play and charge my ipod at the same time. I use my ipod religiously and am constantly draining the battery and hate having to plug it into the computer. Any ideas what could be wrong/where I could take it to get looked at without paying a fortune?

- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.

  • Stop charging your Ipod Touch when connected to your mac

    Hi,
    I was wondering if there is anyway to stop charging your ipod touch without unplugging it from your macbook?

    Are you sure? I mean when it is fully charged, icon change on ipod touch and itunes to unplug it, which mean it will be over charging, that's why it the icon change?
    Thanks anyway.

  • Why will my usb cable to charge my ipod touch on my laptop not work?!?!?

    Then I plug my USB cable into two of my USB ports it says it does not recognize my charger USB cable. But then when I put it in my other one it recognizes it!!! What happened?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

    Perhaps the USB port is damaged somehow. Does any other device have a problem with the same USB port?
    By the way, this is a worldwide forum, not a chat room. Therfore, if you post something, don't expect a reply within five minutes. (That's how long it took before you posted again to ask "does anyone know".) That's just unreasonable!

  • Why did iOS 5 make my brand new iPod Touch so slow?

    Recently downloaded the new iOS which, by the way, took nearly an entire night due to connection failure with host.  Since then my iPod has been almost glitchy.  I keep my apps pretty clean.  I don't have a lot.  And when I'm done with one I close it with the hold+home and "x" it down.  However, still the new iOS runs slow.  Will there be a new release coming soon with some bug fixes?

    You may want to try a few things to try and deduce the problem:
    1. back up your iPod touch with iTunes
    2. remove an app that you suspect may be large or makes heavy use of background work (some apps may use the network a lot via the background scheduling services of iOS)
    3. reboot, then repeat 2 until the problem disappears (you can blame the last app that you removed!)
    4. if the problem does not disappear, try a restore to factory settings.
    The iPod touch has limited working memory (half, in fact) compared to an iPhone 4(S) or iPad 2.  While iOS should be able to handle these memory conditions gracefully, it also depends on how well apps respond to shutting down when iOS tells them to.  Stubborn or rather large apps can cause the performance of your iPod to degrade momentarily until memory congestion settles.

  • Why did apple didn't put siri on ipod touch 4 ios 6?

    All the people that have an ipod touch 4 will want to know that. And also I want to know if apple is thinking to put it on it soon.

    I think you are mistaken, so here's your chance to prove me wrong.  You show me where Apple says SPECIFICALLY that Siri will be available on a 4th Generation iPod Touch and I will be the first person in line to file a class action law suit.
    But, I'm not gonna hold my breath....
    Actually it does show an iPod Touch using Siri. Although it is clearly a 5th generation, sam must not have known it is a fifth gen.

  • Why did my screen crack while charging? It hasn't been dropped, every time I charge it a new crack appears I'm tired of this it's only a year old!

    Why did my screen crack while charging? It hasn't been dropped, every time I charge it a new crack appears I'm tired of this it's only a year old! If its not covered under warranty never again will I go apple I've had nothing but issues so far.

    We can't answer that. Maybe the battery is bad and is swelling inside the phone. Maybe someone else dropped it and didn't tell you about it.
    Make an appointment at the genius bar and see what they say.
    If it's over a year old, then it's not covered under warranty.

  • HT201412 even after all night of charging my ipod touch is running out of battery whithin 5 minutes of it being on, why is this?

    even after all night of charging my ipod touch is running out of battery whithin 5 minutes of it being on, why is this?

    Try the following to rule out a software problem.:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: 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. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still that short of life ake an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My daughter charged her ipod touch on my sisters computer. She managed to login to her iTunes account - now it seems my sisters computer is authorised to access playlists and Apps. How do I stop this?

    My daughter charged her ipod touch on my sisters computer. My daughter also accessed iTunes - my fault she knew the password for the account. Now the account information says that 2  computers are authorised to access this account. How can I deauthorise or remove my sisters computer that is now linked?
    Any ideas? When i access Store the only option is to deauthorise the computer I am on now. There is no option to remove the 2nd computer that is my sisters.

    Very simple....go to itunes store,  on the top right click on your account.  It will ask for your password, then show you a screen where it will have your address on top.  Look 1/2 the way down on the right...it says deauthorize all...click that and then just go back in to your computer and reauthorize your own computer...

  • Can't charge new iPod Touch from iPod hi-fi

    When I plugged my new Touch (late 2009, I think they call it) into the charging dock of my Apple hi-fi, I got a message that the battery could not charge from this device. It played songs just fine. I plugged in my first-generation Touch to confirm that the Apple Hi-Fi could charge it, and it could.
    I have other, older, charging docks (including a Bose Sound Dock) at various locations in my house, but haven't tried them yet. Is the new Touch unable to charge from such docks, or is it the Apple Hi-Fi specifically that is somehow incompatible with the the new Touch?

    Perhaps I can explain this a bit more.
    Originally, iPods charged using the "firewire" connections which are part of the Dock Connector. I believe the voltage used was 12 volts. Later iPods were charged using the USB 5 volt connections, which are also part of the Dock Connector, but I think those iPods could also be charged by either the USB or the firewire connections.
    Several manufacturers of chargers/charging stations/Docks for iPods did not add the USB 5 volt charge feature, probably because they were saving money and missed the incredibly obvious - that Apple would one day drop the firewire charge feature.
    That day has come; the latest iPods cannot be charged by the firewire connections, so if your Dock uses the firewire but not the USB, then it will not charge an iPod that only uses USB, such as the Touch. I have an eighteen month old Bose Sound Dock and it will not charge my iPod Touch. (I don't know if Bose have rectified this oversight yet.) I also have two Klipsch RoomGroove units. When the iPod Touch first came out, the Klipsch would not charge it. However, very quickly, Klipsch RoomGrooves disappeared from the shelves (here in the UK anyway) and when they reappeared, they did charge the Touch. I saw this happening and waited until the newer version of the Klipsch was available.
    Now you may think that Apple were in some way wrong to stop the firewire charging but, think about this. Originally, the iPod's electronics and battery both required 12 volts to work. As technology improved, both the batteries and the electronics could be made to work reliably with only 5 volts, which happens to be the voltage used by USB connections. So if Apple now have a device that can be charged by the USB on your computer, they don't need to include a charger in with the iPod. So the iPods that charged by either firewire or USB were a case of Apple ensuring that old style Docks would continue to work. But that was not going to last forever.
    There is no doubt in my mind that designers should have seen the firewire issue coming!

  • Dear Apple what will happen if I charged my iPod touch 5 gen for 9 hours?

    Hello. Apple .. What will happen if I charged my iPod touch 5gen for 9 hours?

    Charging for 9 hours will not damage the iPod. Charging stops when the battery reaches 100%.

  • Using iHome with 2nd Generation iPod Touch

    My iPod is being serviced right now so I can't check it now. I want to know if a 2nd generation iPod Touch will work through a iHome. I have tried listening to my iPod through a docking base attached to stereo but it only play through the iPod speakers. Will this happen with the iHome? I know that some people said that it will play though the external speakers if something isn't plugged into the headphones jack, will this happen with the iHome also?
    Thanks,
    dukegirl90

    I don't mind if it doesn't charge but will it play through the iHome speakers or the iPod Touch internal speakers? A while ago I tried plugging my iPod into the docking base I have then plugging the docking base into the stereo with the auxilary cord I have and it would only play through the iPod Touch speakers. It would work fine if I had the charging usb cable hooked up to the wall adapter and the auxilary cord hooked up to the iPod headphones jack.
    Will this happen with the iHome?

  • Why does Apogee Jam not work with the Ipod Touch 4G

    Hi,
    I have a Apogge Jam an it works fine with my Mac Book, but it does not seem to be compatible with my Ipod Touch 4g.
    Only the Gibbson L&M app recognize the Apogee Jam, but no other App (Ampkit, ....) :-((
    With the IPhone 4 it shall work, can tell me anybody why Apogee Jam is not compatible with the Ipod Touch 4g (
    although the Gibson-App works)?
    Is there perhaps still other Apps which work with the Ipod Touch and Apogge Jam?
    Thanks
    Michael

    I cannot answer the specifics, but I would guess it is a software issue because Griffin iTalk app will cooperate with the Apogee JAM on an iPod Touch 4g running iOS5.  If this app can do it, then one would presume the other apps could be updated to do it also.
    From last week up until yesterday, Apogee actually listed the 4G Touch as a compatible device with the JAM.
    Apparently there was some confusion about Garageband now supporting iPod Touch and its functionality with JAM.
