had this happen quite a few times, but have no idea how ive sorted it, or even if i have sorted it.
i'll be using my ipod as normal and when i go to turn it off, it just wont, no mater what i do, it wont even reset, so eventually it runs flat, and then when i come to charge it again it connects with no problem, itunes recognises it, the ipod says it charging, yet 30 secs or so latter i get a warning on the ipod saying please connect to power supply, and then 10 secs or so latter losses power, disconnects and go's into the power is too low to connect stage, and just charges for a bit, then when it has enough power to connect, the whole process starts over again, and im not sure how i ever got it out of it, but its stuck doing it at the mo.
I have an ipod classic 30GB, no where near full as i recently went over the 30GB of music mark on my mac and switched to manual sync, im using the original USB cable too
any ideas? anyone else had this too?
