Why don't my iPod work if it shows fully charged when plugged in I unplug it an can't get it to work

SOURCE: Laptop shuts off when unplugged, battery is fully charged

Chosenone, Even though the battery meter shows it fully charged I doubt it?s correct. Over time rechargeable batteries loose their ability to store power. How long depends on the battery manufacturer and how well you treat it but you can consider yourself fortunate if your battery lasts three or four years. Beware of people who suggest you take apart your batter to bypass the safeties or replace old battery cells. Defective or improperly handled batteries can overheat and cause fires when you least expect them. Let us know if you have any more questions and please don?t forget to rate this post.

It does sound as though the battery probably needs to be replaced. If you are technically qualified it is possible to do this yourself, but it is not easy. Try another charger before replacing the battery.

Firstly, you need to obtain the correct battery for your particular model. Lock the ipod in the off position.

Secondly, you need to pull the back off the ipod. Never put a screwdriver anywhere near your ipod, you'll scratch it to bits and damage it.

The back can be removed by pushing a credit card into the join and twisting it until the back pulls away from the front, but believe me...this is not easy. Use an old credit card because the edges will get completely chewed. You can use a hard plastic bladed screwdriver or better still you can obtain a tool to help you remove the back.

When the back has been removed, you can carefully remove the battery from its connector. You will need to make sure you do not disturb the hard drive, pull the ribbon connections or anything else or you can kiss your ipod goodbye.

I have replaced a number of these, but I hate doing them because you have to hold your breath and hope it all works after the replacement. If you don't feel confident, ask a professional to replace the battery for you.

That usually indicates battery is beginning to go bad. Eventually it will not hold a charge and will need to be replaced.

If you have a phone charger with the same connector, plug in you Clip and leave it overnight. This will fully charge the battery. There is not enough power from the USB port.
