Battery Replaced, Recognized by Computer, Won't Charge?
I just replaced the battery with an iFixit (super easy!) and the iPod started right up. It is showing little to no battery power. When I connect it to by Macbook, iTunes recognizes it, but it does not charge. I’ve tried multiple chargers with the 30-pin cable (brand new) and I can’t get the lightning bolt to come up.

answers:

Your problem is the connection. The iPod 3rd Gen does not charge through USB but needs Firewire connection. This model only syncs through USB. Hope this helps, good luck.
