Zen Touch turning on automatically when connecting to comput

Hi,
I know that you can charge the Zen Touch via either the power pack or the usb connection.
However, whenever I connect the player to a USB port, it turns itself on. If its turned off, when I connect it should stay turned off but begin to charge the battery, but mine is turning itself on. Does anyone know why?
I can get it to charge via usb but i must connect it, turn it back off and leave it connected, it then begins to charge.
Is there a problem with my Zen and should I take it back and get it fixed/replaced or have I just changed a setting and not noticed?
Please help me!

It never used to happen before though, and has only just started a few days ago.
It doesn't matter if its been off for the 24hour time period (Think its 24hours) where it would be completely turned off, and it doesn't matter if its the 'soft-off' where the player remembers what it was last doing and turns on almost instantly.
I just thought there might have been a problem as it never used to do it. But I've just checked the manual and it says that it might happen (Side-note to the charging via USB in the getting started section).
Thanks for the reply though and I'll jsut have to remember to turn it back off when I want it to charge.
Thanks again,

  • Ipod 30gb turns off automatically when battery is about half

    Hello,
    I have been testing my new ipod 30gb for a few days to see how much time I can let it play until thebattery dies. However, the last two times i did that (out of three trials)the ipod turn off automatically when the battery reached about half.
    My 'hold' button was on so I could not have touched it by accident and I left the ipod on my desk and no one touched it.
    Has anyone experienced this before or would anyone know what is happening?
    thanks a lot,
    JM

    Please, please, let us all know if this works. I for one have yet to find anyone who has this problem that has fixed it (and, apple, there seems to be quite a few of us, JUST RECENTLY).
    dying for a cure.
    First, as I stated, the "cure" for an old battery is to buy a new one. Many people have had faulty batteries replaced for free by Apple - if the health is low (<80%) and the cycle count is <300, that's a faulty battery that is likely eligible for replacement. Personally, I had one like that replaced for free (after my one year warranty was up, but within the 2 year battery warranty extension). Second, perhaps this is happening "just recently" because the MBPs have been out for a while now, and people's batteries (just like the people themselves) are getting older. Batteries have a finite life and a finite number of charge cycles they can take before they become unreliable - that's just the basic chemistry of a Li-based rechargeable battery. Third, if you're addressing your comment to Apple, this is not the place for that - go to the appropriate Apple feedback page instead.

  • I need to find out if SMS Messaging can turn on automatically when my Ipad receives an Update or does a Password have to be entered to do this?  IE, when my IPAD SMS is turned on then my Iphone messages can be accessed.

    I need to find out if SMS Messaging can turn on automatically when my Ipad receives an Update or does a Password have to be entered to do this?  IE, when my IPAD SMS is turned on then my Iphone messages can be accessed.

    Maybe I used the wrong term for it.  Basically, someone recently had my Ipad and somehow turned on my messaging so they could read all of the messages on my Iphone.  I would think this the password was used to do this however they advised that the Ipad had an update which then activated the messaging.  Can this happen?

  • 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.
    - Contact iHome. Maybe there is a firmware update for the dock. Sometimes an iOS update breks compatibility. However, sometimes the following works
    - 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.

  • How do I set my iPhone 3G to sync automatically when connected to my computer?

    How do I set my iPhone 3G to sync automatically when connected to my computer? The button to "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" is checked, and iTunes opens automatically, but it no longer syncs automatically as it did before the last update.  Now I have to hit the "Sync" button each time; much less convenient as I have to frequently update my calendar.

    On my iTunes at the top menu, in the Edit drop down menu, at the bottom is Preferences, click that, then pick icon Devices. Then in the middle there are check boxes, one has Prevent ipods,iPhones, ipads from syncing automatically. Try to leave this box empty. See if this helps.

    It sounds very very much like the battery. You will need to have it replaced. If you put the failing one in yourself you will need to pay as your Warranty is now void.
