I had the Emerson Research iPod dock for a bit more than two years now, and for the first good year and a half, my iPod touch 2g (up to date) played fine. But for the last few months, it only makes a faint static noise when I switch it to the iPod function. It plays the radio fine, so the speakers arnt the problem, and it also charges the iPod and shows they’re connected, it just won’t play music! It’s very frustraiting and isn’t mentioned in the instruction manual. FYI it works fine on other docks, car jacks, etc.
Does anyone know the problem and/or solution? Thanks

Before we continue, I have updated my itunes and I have done the manual reset of the ipod by pushing the center button and the menu button at the same time. The ipod still functions and will play music through a sound dock that I have… but the dock will no longer charge the ipod. I (luckily) have an FM transmitter for my car that DOES charge it, so I can still use it. I also took it to a local retailer and docked it on several sound docks and some would charge it, some would not. Strange, eh? Anyway, if anyone has seen anything like this and has a tip to offer, I would greatly appreciate it.

I have already successfully deleted all of the "safe" daemons; however, now my iphone no longer displays the charge incompatibility message when i plug it into my car.
I don’t mind this; however, now i can no longer play music.
i have an iphone 3g. firmware 3.1.3 All of the daemons are backed up on my computer. On docks that were made for the iphone, it works fine.
i just want to know if anyone knows which .plist files i need to put back. (it would save me the trouble of deleting files one by one, rebooting, and checking to see if the music works after each file.)

I recently purchased one of the new ipod nano’s after my old one no longer wroked.
This new ipod will play music, but will not charge while docked on my ijuke speaker, or my car speaker dock. The ipod displays a warning on the screen that says it is not compatable with the source or something like that. But it works perfectly fine on my younger sibling’s ihome.
Both the second and third generation ipod nanos have worked on these docks before, is this a problem with my ipod or my speaker docks?

I’d like one that charges my nano, but also has awesome sound.
I don’t want like surround sound for iPod that takes a lot of time to assemble. Just a plain speaker that plays my music and has a remote will do.
I don’t want one that doubles as a CD player/alarm clock/etc…I just want one that docks my nano, plays it, charges it, has a remote, and has awesome sound.
My sister just got a Bose SoundDock Tuesday and it is cool. I’ve listened to it a couple of times, but the remote won’t allow you to go back to menu so I guess that is a factor too, ability to go back to menu from the remote. I heard the Apple Hi-Fi is good too, but to me the Bose looks a lot better. I may be missing the best one out there just because it isn’t a big named one (Bose, Apple, etc.). I’m ready to pay the big price if I get sound and everything I listed for it. I want it worth my while.
I’ve done a little research with other people who have asked the same question, but still haven’t come to a decision.

Any why does everyone think that they are worth the money that they charge?
Are they best?? Are they worth the money??
They do charge alot for them.
What do you think?? — for Home Theatre or Computer Speakers or Music players and Ipod/Iphone/mp3 player docks…
Everyone tune in and please let me know why and what’s the reason/SOURCE?? Please be specific:)… and what type of movies, music: Jazz, Hip Hop, Techno, Instrumental, Classical etc.
Thanks!!!
And are there better alternatives?-suggestions?

I have had my Fifth Generation 30Gig iPod Video for a long time. And in that time, I’ve collected quite a few accessories for it. I have several stereo docks, including an iWoofer, a bluetooth transmitter, and a portable video dock (kind of like a portable DVD player that you plug your iPod into).
I want to upgrade my iPod. Is the 2G iPod Classic compatible with 5G/5.5G iPod Video accessories? I’d hate to lose the ability to use all my accessories – especially since they’re all in perfect working condition!
Thank you in advance.

I own an iphone 3g, and all the clock/speaker/ihome docks i’ve used make me put my iphone in airplane mode to prevent any sound interference. BUT THIS MEANS I CANT RECEIVE CALLS OR TEXTS!! does anyone know of any models of speakers that don’t make you go into airplane mode? maybe if a cord was used to connect the iphone instead of a dock, then the iphone could be positioned far enough away to prevent interference…?

I see all the newer stereo systems, clock radios, etc. coming with what is always described as an "ipod dock" or "dock for your ipod". I have NO DESIRE to ever have anything with " i " in front of it. But I have begun wondering if these docks will support other MP3 players before I invest in one; the dock or the ipod/mp3 player, whatever.
Thanks

I have the bumper. It’s a great product (sarcasm) Only one tiny problem- the bumpers won’t allow standard apple docks and accessories to be used without removing the bumper. If you try and use your iphone in your car, or dock, you then have to remove the bumper in order to hook it up. I’ve been a religious apple fan until recently, but if tomorrow’s death grip fix is apple announcing these poorly designed free bumper’s to fix the "death grip" reception issues, it will turn one black eye into two along with a fat lip.
