Why doesn't my 6g nano hold a charge?

I recharge my nano using either my computer or the AC charger provided by apple.  The Nano won't hold a charge even though it indicates a full charge

  • Why won't my iPhone 4S hold a charge after updating to ios7 ?

    I accidental update my iPhone 4S to IOS 7 and now it won't hold a charge for a day? Why is that. I had no problems before the update ...

    I am having the same problem with my 4S since the last update. It was shutting off at 38% now today it shut off at 50%. It's driving me nutz and is not very reliable. Some one please suggest something to do. I was wondering if I should eliminate some apps that just updated one by one to see if that helped or just go through that nasty reset. I don't really want to do that but if I have to I will.

  • Why won't my iPhone 4S hold a charge past 1%, without being constantly plugged in? My iOS is up to date and it makes no sense to me.

    My phone is only 7 months old and it will not hold a charge past 1%. It needs to be plugged in constantly, and I'm limited to iMessages only. No phone calls, or basic text messages.

    It sounds like your iPhone is broken.
    Contact Apple using www.apple.com/support/contact if you are in a country that supports it or call the appropriate phone number on this page. Alternatively carry the iPhone in to an Apple retail store.

  • Why won't my droid turbo hold a charge

    Starting an hour ago, my Droid Turbo will not hold a charge and powers off within 2 seconds of low battery warning, when the battery had 80% most of the morning.

    Sounds like you are trying to Charge Wirelessly on a TYLT Charge pad. Get your Turbo Cable out and Charge it to 100% + 45mins. Supposedly needs to reset the sensors, Then fine. Yea mine was Charging/Draining quickly and excessively warm while charging. They were gonna exchange my phone under warranty, but didn't have to after completing the above steps.

  • Why does my iPad 1 not hold a charge

    For past couple of days ipad1 won't hold it's charge for more than an hour or so, charged it overnight and seemed to be ok but quickly drained. Any advice would be welcome.

    Standard troubleshooting...
    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    If still a problem restore with your backup.
    If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue, i.e. battery.

  • Why doesn't my itunes recognize my ipod nano 6th gen anymore?

    I recently purchased a lot of new songs and downloaded the newest version of itunes.  Now when i plug my ipod (6th gen) into the USB to sync with itunes it shows that it is charging ("connected - eject before disconnecting") then it ejects itself and the whole time itunes never registers my ipod.  So frustrating!!  I've restarted my computer many times, i've uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes many times.  I've tried holding the sleep/on/off button with the volume down button to restore it then i get a message  from itunes saying that it can't restore my ipod because of an error.....  What can I do???  Please Help!!!!

    Why doesn't my iTunes recognize my "Songs for Japan" CD,
    iTunes gets information about all CDs from a database called Gracenote (which has nothing to do with iTunes/Apple), but if no one has entered the information about that CD into Gracenote, that's why your iTunes cannot fill in the track names. You could send that information to Gracenote yourself by completing the track names and artists and then clicking on Advanced/Submit CD track names. That would help everyone else in the future.
    However, you then go on to say;

    If your iTunes cannot get any track information for any CD, then either your iTunes isn't connected to the internet, or your iTunes setting have changed. To check your iTunes settings, go into Edit/Preferences/General and look at the tick-box (check-box) named Automatically retrieve CD track names from the internet. There should be a tick (check-mark) in the box.

  • Why does my nano not hold  a charge?

    I have a 1st generation Nano and it will not hold a charge.  can anyone help me?

    Todd,
    Considering that the Nano is a 1G Nano, meaning it's quite a few years old, it's likely that the battery is shot and in need of replacement.  You can choose to have Apple repair it, a third party company, or you can even choose to replace the battery yourself. 
    However, another thing to consider is whether or not the repair would be worth the cost giving the iPod's age.

  • I recently bought a lightning to 30 pin adapter for my new iPad so that I could continue to use my 30 pin to VGA cord, but when I plug the VGA cord into it it says it is not supported. They are all apple products, so why doesn't it work?

    If it is a lightning to 30 pin adaptor, and you have a 7th Generation Nano it has to fit the Nano.
    This is lightning to 30 pin adapter: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Apple%26%23174%3B---Lightning-to-30-Pin-Adapter/6651 936.p?id=1218803450821&skuId=6651936#tab=overview
    Is this what you bought?
    You need to contact Sony and see if they model you have is compatible with the docking adapter. It may not be.
