Any tips for an iPod displaying a battery with an exclaimation point!

Plenty! Just read thru' this article and solve the problem..

Solution
  • Charge the iPod.

    Or

  • Be sure you're charging it from a working power source. A USB 2.0 connection won't charge a third-generation iPod nor will an iPod charge when it's attached to a sleeping computer.

    Or
  • Your iPod may be locked up. To unlock it, reset it by holding down the Menu and Play buttons on the first three generations of iPods (or the Play and Select button on the mini and fourth-generation iPod) for about six seconds.

    Or
  • If your iPod won't charge even after your iPod has been plugged into a power receptacle for a long time, try a different cable. A damaged cable may prevent the iPod from charging.

    Or
  • The battery may be dead. See Cure 5 under The iPod Won't Start Up.

    Or
  • On a first- or second-generation iPod, the FireWire connector may be broken. If the connector "gives" when you plug in a FireWire cable, this is likely the problem. Such a problem requires taking the iPod into Apple for repair.
