ok my ipod is being dumb and it wont charge!!! yes i have used 3 different chargers and i plugged it into the computer but it wont charge the thing just says PLEASE WAIT VERY LOW BATTERY.....Ahhhh!
Time for a new battery. Take it to an Apple store or replace it yourself. You also need to make sure the ipod is plugged into a USB 2.0 port to charge, a USB 1.1 port won't charge it.
First try restoring your iPod with iTunes. This fixed my charging issue on an iPod Mini I bought awhile ago.
No, you don't need a new battery yet. Sometimes the ipod gets stuck in the power saving mode, with this message displayed, and never changes. You can unplug the ipod, hold 'Menu and select' until the apple logo shows. Then turn the ipod off by holding play, then plug the ipod back into your computer. - Or - Keep in mind that your USB port does not give out power in sleep mode. You can't charge the ipod while your computer is sleeping, infact, doing this will drain the battery faster. So don't leave your computer, and don't fall asleap yourself. - Then - Get a new battery.
