2nd gen ipod shuffle charging light indicator

it should go green after it is 80% charged usually after 2 or so hours.. if its not you have a problem.. if a restore does not work you may want to take it in and exchange it for a new one.

Check this article for info on the status lights and what they mean.

Actually, removed from the dock the battery status will
show green when the Shuffle battery has > 30%
charge (Page 8, Pod shuffle_FeaturesGuide.pdf):

green Good charge (30% – 100%)
orange Low charge (10% – 30%)
red Very low charge (< 10%)

The GREEN light while in the dock will ONLY appear
when Shuffle is FULLY charged... this MAY take several charging cycles.

My shuffle experienced this at first also. What I did
was let it play continuously until the battery
completely depleted. After this, when I charged it
again the light went to green in a few hours. I
haven't had the problem since.

So, at least in my experience, it may need at least
one battery cycle to get itself right.

Hmmm... Wasn't that what I said in a previous response when I wrote:

My shuffle is doing this exact same thing, never wants to turn green while charging, even overnight with laptop not in sleep mode. Will try draining it and see what happens then. Thanks for the tip, hope it works.
