If your battery is beyond dead the USB cable will not have enough current to charge it. I found that out. Mine died, so I plugged it into my computer and nothing. But.....if you put it on a docking station, or a speaker system with the dock connector, that also plugs into the wall that should work. Or just to power adapter. But as far as I have experienced, the computer will not charge it if the battery is very dead.

I broke down and ordered a wall charger for it, so hopefully it is just too dead to charge from the puter like you said alomar. Teknics ithanks for that link i tried to reset it but no go. We will see when the charger gets here.

Yeah the IPOD was just SOOO DEAD nothing would charge it, but as soon as i got the wall charger boom it lit up and as couple hours later i was up and going again. Well worth the 10$ for the wall charger.
