SOURCE: After charging your portable media

Ifthe MP3 player battery is more than 3 - 4 years old then the battery could be wornout. Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cyclesand will lose their charge capacity over time, i.e. won't charge to 100% andgradually the charge reduces until the battery won't charge up atall. ORThe battery shows a 100% charge but when the adapter is disconnected the batterydrops off to zero capacity in a very short time. Ifthe battery drops to an unacceptable charge level then the battery needs to bereplaced.

Philips DCP855/37 Portable DVD Player...when I try to charge up the lithium battery it does not charge. The directions say to turn off the power and the green charge light will turn on. When I plug it in...

Batteries in these things don't last very much; it is most likely a bad battery. Replace the battery with a new one and your problem should be solved.

Green battery light on the archos 5 but when i disconnect it from dock or usb no green lights abd completely dead - won't switch on either in dock or out???

Power green LED light should come on, CHG green LED light should also come on showing the battery is being charged. Leave your unit in Suspend mode while charging it, DO NOT turn it completely off as "Shutting Down.." because it will not charge your battery.

I just purchased an almost new Archos 5 on eBay recently, and the first day I had it, happened to me that I left the unit off and charging on the Mini Dock with external AC power supply, after 13-14 hours the CHG light still wasn't blinking. Then I though maybe I have to leave the unit in Suspend mode rather than completely off, which I did, and in a matter of 3 hours it fully charged the battery.

Again, do not shut down completely the unit, leave it on Suspended mode, or even on, and connected it to your mini dock, after a while the screen will go blank the unit will go into Suspended mode by itself, and after 3 hours on external power supply or 8 hours via USB on PC should be completely charged and your CHG light should be blinking, indicating the battery is charged.

I hope this helped.

Not charging

I would say that the battery is not accepting a charge because it has gone bad or the charging circuit is not working properly and the battery is not charging.
If you can get a battery to test it with, you can see if the battery charges or if it is just that your battery has gone south. Rechargable batteries have a limited number of charges and if they are allowed to go totally dead and they sit that way for a long time they will not take a charge anymore.

Cheers
