  • A sleeping computer…If your computer is sleeping, your iPod will not charge unless you wake up your computer. This basically means your computer must be fully turned on.
  • Wrong cable…Make sure your iPod is connected to your computer via a USB 2.0 cable.
  • Frozen iPod…If your iPod isn’t responding to key presses or it won’t switch off, it’s most like that it has suffered a crash. This happens if you improperly eject your iPod from your computer.

    This causes your iPod to freeze and the 'Do not disconnect' screen will remain. Always disconnect your iPod properly by clicking the 'Eject' icon in iTunes and wait for your iPod’s main menu to reappear.

    To resolve this, you will need to reset your iPod. To do this slide the 'Hold' button on and then off. Press and hold the 'Menu' and 'Select' (centre button) at the same time for about 6-10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.

    Your iPod will then re-boot, just as if it was being switched on for the first time. The menu screen will reappear and your iPod will be useable again with all its files intact.

  • Faulty cable…If the cable that connects your iPod to a power source or your computer is broken and your iPod fails to charge... try a different power cable if the cable is broken.
  • Faulty computer port…If the USB 2.0 port on your computer does not function properly, try charging your iPod from the Apple iPod Power adapter.
  • Faulty power adapter…Apple iPod Power adapter might be faulty so try charging your iPod from your computer if your iPod fails to charge.
  • Dead battery…When your iPod’s battery gives up its ghost, you definitely need a new one. For more information, visit RapidRepair.com
  • Broken iPod …When your iPod breaks none of the above solutions will work, it might need to be replaced. For more information, visit http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod
