Why doesn't my 160GB ipod charge using my white universal dock?

The remote works just fine. I have two of the (older) white universal docks and the ipod doesn't charge with either. Am I supposed to buy a new, metal colour more 'universal' dock?

Contact the dock vendor. Only they would know if their product is compatible.

Why doesn't the iPhone 4s charge to 100%?

Why doesn't the iPhone 4s charge to a full 100% when charing over night?

OK sort of an old thread now but this apparently is a common issue. Restore wont help. I have researched it for the past week (did several months ago too and gave up) but I now have somewhat of a solution to this phenomena. For whatever reason mine seems to stay at 100% most of the night than around 7:00am it would drop to 97% or so within a few minutes. This sorta stopped when iOS 5.1.1 came out. Now it stays at 100% until I unplug it then it drops. What I was doing was each morning when wake up, I unplug then plug back in while I was getting ready for the day and it would go back to 100%. So for the fix. What I have discovered over the past week worked 100% of the time. When go to bed I turn off the phone with the slider. Then plug in charger and let the phone come alive again by itself. But I do not log it in. Just let it sit at the lock screen. Now every morning its at 100% and stays that way for more than an hour (If not used). So it is being fully charged and remaining that way. iPhone will quick charge to 100% by meter but in reality it still needs longer to fully charge. Anyway this process has solved the waking up to less than 100% while still being connected to the charger.

Why doesn't the DVD I burnt using iMovie work on my DVD recorder?

Why doesn't the DVD I burnt using iMovie work on my DVD recorder?

You probably used the Finder and burned a data DVD. They can only play on a computer.
Do you have any DVD authoring software?

I had an ipod touch 4th gen and used the apple universal dock to play music through my stereo. I just got a 5th generation and a lightning adapter but the adapter does not fit the universal dock. Apple tech support has no solution, does anyone?

I had an ipod touch 4th generation and used the Apple Universal Dock to play music through my stereo. I just got the 5th generation and the lightning adapter but the adapter does not fit into the dock. Apple tech support has no solution, does anyone?

That is the adapter I purchased from Apple which does not fit in the Apple Universal cradle (which apparently is no longer universal). However, I just created my own solution. The cradle holds the dock connector at a slight angle so the adapter, which has a straight bottom edge, will not slide down far enough to make a connection. Since the adapter has a plastic case, I used my Swiss Army knife to whittle it down to fit. It's a no-tech solution, and free!

IPod Nano + USB Power Adapter (+ Universal Dock)

Hi,
I've got an iPod Nano and a USB Power Adapter to charge it. Untill a few days ago it went fine, even with my Universal Dock between them. But since 2 days my iPod only charges when I put the Power adapter direcly into the wall plug, but with my Hi-Fi installation I'll have to use it with a multiple socket.
Does anybody know why and how to get round this?
Thanks
Windows XP

possibly a fuse blown in the multiple socket plug?? or even in the power adapter itself

Nano ipod does not work in universal docking station but larger ipod does

My partner has a large ipod and I have a nano ipod. he can connect to the universal docking station and listent o music through the sound system but when I connect the nano ipod using the adaptor supplied with my nano ipod it does not recognise it even though it clicks in place as it is supposed to do. I also can not recognise my tracks on the ipod on the computer where the tracks had originally been transferred from, do you think the connector in my ipod has been damaged and is now not working?
I don't have any problems charging from the computer thopugh or listening to what is on it.
Can anyone help?

I have a similar but not quite the same issue. I have a toshiba tecra m3 laptop with windows xp pro. When I have the "enhanced usb driver" enabled under device configuration for my computer, my ports operate fine with usb 2.0 devices at full speed, but when I plug in my ipod it says that it is unrecognized.
If I disable the enhanced driver, then the ports dumb-down to usb 1.0, my ipod works fine with itunes but is a bit slow and other devices (like an external dvd burner) operate at slow speeds.
Also, whenever I plug in my ipod windows pops a box saying it would work faster if I plugged it into a usb 2.0 port. How helpful.
Anyone else experiencing this kind of thing?

Using the Apple Universal Dock with an old amplifier?

Hi,
Yesterday, I bought the universal dock to hear the music I have on my iPhone on my home stereo, an old amplifier (NAD C320), connecting them with an 3.5mm <-> 2 RCA cable. I hear a little noise every 10 seconds, but there's no music.
I did the same thing with a more recent compact hi-fi (a Sonoro Cubo, with 3 years, that reads cd's with mp3 files), connecting the iPhone using a 3.5mm <-> 3.5mm, and I get the same noise.
What's my mistake? Thanks in advance.
Best regards, Miguel Caldeira Proenca

Hi, Thanks for your help.
I still couldn't find the time to go to the shop and test if there are any problems with the dock, but I already found an interesting answer:
- if I connect the jack coming from the amp directly to the earphone plug (without using the dock), it all works fine; this means that the problem is either related with the dock or the phone plug that connects to the dock (the one that's used to charge the battery); this narrows the problem to two options, so I only need to go to the shop and test another dock.
Thanks a lot for your help, in the beginning I was wondering if I was doing something, your comment was helpful to understand that the problem wasn't me,
Best regards, Miguel

Why does itunes say my ipod is using less space than what is being used.

When my ipod is plugged in my pc while running itunes, I click the ipod icon in the source menu. Near the bottom of the itunes window it says how much free space and used space there is availiable on the ipod. Well, mine reads that I have 24.70 gigs free space but the used space is only 3.12 gigs and there is a little lock near where it say's free space. I dunno why it say's that or how to change it. Please help.

If talking about 30 GB
Advertised GBs are calculated as 100010001000
A computer counts a GB as 102410241024 instead
There is also space used by iPod itself (file system etc.)

Why doesn't my new iPod touch come with Messages but my sister's does?

My parents just bought my sister and I a new iPod touch each. They were told that they were identical except hers is white and mine is black. When we opened them and began using them, we noticed that hers has the iMessage app and mine doesn't. They were bought in two different shops, but I don't see how that can make a difference. Can someone please help me and tell me if/how I can get that app?

Hi Sarah--Jane,
yours is likely one that was produced before October, when the new iOS was introduced. If you hook it up to iTunes, it should tell you that you have an update available. Update to the newest operating system, and you should have Messages available.

Why doesn't my nano ipod show up as a device in itunes?

I can't get my new nano ipod to sync
Can't figure out why. Please help

-The 4G iPod can only go as high as iOS 6.1.6. Its hardware prevents going to iOS 7
- For not in Devices:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests

Why doesn't Mail have ability to use bullets in emails

I find it odd that you can adjust colors but not have the ability to use bullets and number lists in contructing emails in Apple mail.

Well, I don't know why the composition features of Mail are so limited, but I know an easy workaround.
Compose your email in TextEdit (where you can make bulleted/numbered lists). From the menu bar, choose Edit->Select All followed by TextEdit->Services->Mail->Send Selection.
A new email will open with your formated text in the body.

Why doesn't my battery fully charge?

I had my macbook pro plugged in all day, using it and noticed the battery only says 98%, why wouldn't it say 100%? Is this going to become an issue later on and should I take it to an apple store for maintenance now to avoid costly repairs later? It's only a month old.

Why doesn't my macbook air charge?

I just bought a macbook air and when I plug the ac adaptor the led on it doesn't come on. I can't charge the mac !!! I tried with several ac adapters from other macbook air computer and it's the same. What's going on ????

You may have a defective connection, on a new machine take it back for return/exchange or take it to your local Apple Store or AASP for repair. Also you can contact AppleCare, you have 90 days of free telephone service. They're open M-Saturday so you may need to wait until tomorrow morning.
