Charging with this accessory is not supported

[noelevryd]

I use to charge my 1st Gen Ipod touch with a 3rd power adapter and it work perfectly.
I try using it on my 2nd Gen Ipod Touch and it said "CHARGING WITH THIS ACCESSORY IS NOT SUPPORTED"

I WANNA KNOW IF ANY OF YOU GUYS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM THX

Search before you post. There have been tons of topics on this same exact problem. You have to get an adapter for third party charging accessories to work. Sucks, doesn't it!

Wrong. 3rd party adapters are fine if they followed apples standard charging pin-outs. This one obviously doesn't.

Actually the majority of them don't. That is because the manufacturers used to have the choice of 12v or 5v input but then apple suddenly decided to do away with the 12v line with the new touch and the iphone 3g. Supposedly apple told these companies about the change over a year ago, though some manufacturers claim to have never heard of such a thing. I'm certain if they knew about it all their products would have been updated by now instead of trying to play catch up.
