iPod touch, iOS 6.1.3, ipod touch problem
It means that when your ipad is running with your charger connected, it is using about as much electrical energy as your charger is supplying to your battery. When your ipad is shut down there are no apps or programs running so all of the charger's output is devoted to recharging the battery. Your ipod battery may be running down a bit because of age, or you could possibly have too many apps running at the same time. Running gamming applications uses quite a bit of power. I'm making the assumption that your charger is functioning properly. Also, charging via the USB port on your computer is not as efficient as using your wall charger since the charging current provided by the computer usb port is a bit less than the wall charger. If you use an iPad wall charger it will provide more charging current and therefor would be more effective.
so how can i fix my problem?.because i cant sync it regarding the charging problem.i just want to sync my albums videos ec. to it.but without my ipod not being able to function with any computers i cant do that.
- As said before, it appears that the charging source yo are using does not supply enough power to charge the iPod with the screen, on. Just let it charge with the screen off.
- Why can't you sync? What happens when you try to sync? Errors?
My ipod cant sync because the computer doesnt recognize the device anymore.no computer recognizes it when i plug it up.The ipod photo opyions dont even pop up.All i get is "usb device is not recognized"
its like the computer detects it and knows the ipod is plugged into the port(s) but doesnt recognize it
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Ive tried those already and there not the problem.i think its the ipod battery
what does it mean if my ipod charges only when its off
