Ipod and iF2 portable speakers - preventing standby mode kicking in.

I have recently purchased both an iPod video and the Sonic Impact i-F2 portable speakers. There is and auto standby on the speakers which means that if they are 'idle' for more than 5 mins they shut down. Does anyone know how I prevent the speakers from going into standby mode (ie Off!) while I am listening to the music on the iPod?
It's no doubt a very simple thing, but it's driving me mad! Hope someone can help.

i know that the ipod gets charged on some of the other docking speakers, and the speakers don't go into stand by when ipod is playing music because they are providing power to the ipod while the ipod is playing. you may need to contact the manufacturer of the sonic impact speakers for this one.

  • Does an unmounted but still inserted SD card prevent standby mode?

    This apple support document lists a number of things preventing standby mode on SSD portable macs (MBA 2010-, MBP mid 2012 & MBPr)
    To enter standby, the computer must:
    - Have no SD card inserted.
    Does this apply to inserted but unmounted SD cards as well?
    This question arose from the Kickstarter page for The Nifty Minidrive, a microSD card adapter that fits perfectly into the SD slot on portable macs but which according to the aforementioned support document will prevent standby mode on the models that support it.
    If anyone knows or is able to test this that would make 8 602 Kickstarter backers pretty grateful!

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    Sorry to hear that you're having issues with your SD-card.
    I recommend that you first test your SD card in your PC using a test software like http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/H2testw.shtml or similar. I also recommend that you test your phone with another SD card to see if there's something wrong with the phone or SD card.

  • HT201442 Just bought a brand new ipod touch a month ago and went in to iTunes. There was an update for me so I downloaded it to my ipod and then it went into recovery mode. Tried to restore it in itunes but was told this device isn't eligible.  Help!!

    Just bought a new ipod touch a month ago.  Went into itunes to burn music and had an update to download which I did. Then I get a message that my ipod has gone into recovery mode. It's locked up with a black screen with iTunes logo and picture of a plugin on the screen. Tried to restore it as recommended but itunes said this device isn't eligible for the requested build. Error codes 3194 and 17. This is very frustrating considering the cost of the ipod and how new it is. Now what do I do?  Buy another one? Can anybody fix these types of things? Is this a common occurance or am I just unlucky?

    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11.1.5) Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
    Then...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the Steps in this article to force the device into Recovery Mode.

  • I lost my ipod and it is in the lost mode.  what should I do?

    I lost my ipod in sixflags, so I seted it in lost mode using the "Find my iphone "app, and let it notify me once it is connect to WIFI....Tonight, I got an email saying that my ipod was connected wifi and setted to the lost mode. So i try to track it but it was offline. i also saw the username/ ipod user name is changed. So is it possible to find it back???

    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • I lost my iPod and i put it on lost mode. how can i put  wifi on it so the person can read the alert

    yesterday i left my ipod at ralphs. today i put it on lost moe. how can i make sure my iPod gets wifi so the person that has it reads the alert

    You can't.  It's all up to the person holding the device to have wifi on.

  • IPod won't stay in standby mode

    When I turn off the iPod by holding down the play button, it does go into standby mode, but only for a very short time.
    But if it's off for more than a few minutes, it always restarts whenever I turn it back on, meaning it shows that apple logo for quite a while, and starts at the main menu.
    It's not a huge problem, but I think it's very annoying, and I really miss the standby mode from my previous iPod (also an iPod Classic, it was sent to repairs and I got a new one back - if this one is faulty as well, I'm gonna be really ****** off with the quality of these products)

    The alarm-clock might be turned on, try to turn this off.

  • Standby mode problem - iPhone 4S

    I have an iPhone 4S, 16GB, firmware 5.0.1.
    When I click on the stanby button, and the iphone goes to standby mode,
    sometimes happens that when I click the stanby button againt it doesn't works
    and is blocked with black screen.
    The phone fails to resume from standby.
    The only thing I can do is keep pressed both power and home button.

    Configure the router to do DHCP automatically, try not to hard code the ip address.
    1. Try rebooting the router.
    2. See if there's a firmware update for your router.

  • I think my ipod touch is set to camera mode and I need to switch it back. When I hoook it up to my computer it thinks I am hooking up a camera and wants to download pics. It used to read it as an ipod and automatically synch. Now it doesn't do that. HELP

    When I first got my ipod, I would hook it up to my computer and it would automatically synch with my itunes. But then I took some pictures with my ipod and downloaded the pics.  Now everytime I hook up my ipod to my computer, it reads it as a camera and asks if I want to download pics. It is driving me crazy. I haven't used my ipod as a camera since that one time, and I need to get it back to automatically synching when I hook it up.  It's like it is not being recognized as an ipod. Is there something I can do to get my ipod out of camera mode and back to ipod mode. Also, i got a speaker system to hook up my ipod to and it is not "picking up" the ipod when I hook it up. the music will not come out of the speakers and I think again it is an issue of my ipod being in "camera" mode. HELP!!!

    As mentioned in your other post, disable the camera notification, shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1500
    But you'll have to be logged in with administrative rights, to change the settings.

  • My ipod 5 was stolen but I have find my ipod installed on it but my ipod isn't/never was connected to a wifi network when it was stolen so how will my ipod play sound or go on lost mode and if there's no wifi connected to it?

    my ipod 5 was just recently stolen in a waterpark (same with my best friend) and when i went on to find my ipod I pressed play sound and lost mode but it never successfully did all those things because my ipod wasn't or isn't connected to a wifi network as it says in the app. so how will I ever find my ipod if it never is going to connect to a wifi network without the thief accessing my ipod (I have a passcode). and also when I check the app once in a while it says ipod is online but cannot find location, so does that mean the thief is using my ipod or is trying to get in?

    Yo are correct. It has to connect to internet for the FindMyiPhne features to be transmitted to the iPod
    lost/stolen                                     
    No app on the iPod is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or conbtinue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • Can't play music on ipod and youtube videos on speaker mode after update

    Hi people!
    I just updated to version 3.12 yesterday and after which, i tried playing songs with ipod mode and the speaker was not working. Tried plugging on a earphone and was able to listen to the music. The same issue was encountered on playing YouTube videos on the phone via speaker mode. The speakers however works when someone calls and while communicating via speaker mode on a phone call.
    I tried to do a system restore but was unable to revert back to the previous version 3.11 on my backup file. The same issues were encounter after doing a restore and notice that the phone boots up from a hard reset significantly longer and some ringtone files which shows already sync into the phone on itunes was not found on the iphone itself.
    However just when i was about to give up, i tried one last time to reboot the phone again to troubleshoot if the speakers was the one causing the problem, I tried setting "Lock sounds" and "Keyboard Clicks" off and on again and was able to get the speakers working now for ipod and youtube. Thanks goodness the speakers wasn't spoiled.
    But when i sync some of my music files back from my computer again and every time i hook up to charge my phone, the problems keep coming back...
    Is there anyone encountering this problem too and any permanent solutions or should i just visit the service center for a peace of mind as i do have 6 months of warranty left...
    Thank you all for your time. Regards...

    Try the standared fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults.

  • My iPhone turns off whenever it goes into standby mode and has to be turned back on to work

    My iPhone turns off whenever it goes into standby mode and has to be turned back on to work

    That's normal behavior. It turns off automatically in order to preserve the battery. Pushing the On/Off button turns it on immediately. This also requires entering the passcode and prevents the phone from being accessed by anyone but you.

    This is usually an indication that your headphones are not plugged ALL the way in.  The white part of the headset should be flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the headphone plug should still be seen.
