Accurian iPod Dock Not Compatible?

I just bought an Accurian iPod Dock for my 80GB Classic iPod. However, it does not work when I try to connect it to the composite out in my TV. The iPod just says, "TV Out Enabled, Please Connect Video Accessory." I'm guessing it's not compatible, but is there a way to make it work? Or should I just return it?

There have been many many reports both here and elsewhere of the iPod Classic not working with 3rd party accessories.
It seems Apple have changed the way the Classic interacts with these accessories.
If you search the threads here you'll find many posts on this subject.

  • Sony iPod Dock Not Compatible with iOS 4

    I play a 3GS through a Sony HD-radio with a dock on the top. Upgrading the 3GS to 4.0 resulted in a popup that says "this accessory is not compatible with iPhone." It was yesterday - now it isn't. Apple: Did you break accessory compatibility on purpose? If not, will you please fix?

    I invested in a nice expensive Sony wireless speakers sound system with an iphone dock. Worked perfectly until the stupid 4.0 update came out, and now it brings out the same stupid error message all the time and I can't play any streaming media, on the sound system, which was the main reason I bought the originally compatible sound system. Great job apple !! They are trying to expand too fast, and now they are producing mediocre products ! I am really upset about this ! I just want to downgrade the **** software back to 3.1 and then never update it again :?

  • I updated my itunes to 11 and found out my phone and ipod were not compatible. I uninstalled it and reinstalled 10.7 but now I get an error message when I try to open itunes saying "the file cannot be read because it was created by a newer verison"

    I updated my itunes to 11 and found out my phone and ipod were not compatible. I uninstalled it and reinstalled 10.7 but now I get an error message when I try to open itunes saying "the file cannot be read because it was created by a newer verison" What do I do?

    Thank you for clarify I'm supposed to read the ENTIRE article. I thought I was just supposed to read the title and magically everything will fix itself. I appreciate you taking the time to help me however I do not appreciate the caps and the way you have addressed the situation. If you are not going to kindly help people/make suggestions just don't try! And for the record my conclusions are not illogical, the iOS7 thing is on the website in small font (which I got by reading the ENTIRE thing) and you should really find a new hobby because your socialization skills need some help! That goes for you too Chris. Not everyone is a tech nerd

  • I get message "your Ipod is not compatible with attached accessory"

    I recently purchased a Belkin TuneBase FM for iPod to use in my car as a mount, FM transmitter, and car charger. After installing it into my car's power outlet and inserting my Ipod Video into it, I get the message "your Ipod is not compatible with the attached accessory". It does charge up my iPod battery, however my iPod screen does not display the FM frequency that the Belkin TuneBase is transmitting on and so I cannot adjust the frequency to get it to work. I have the latest version of Ipod firmware installed, I tried restoring my iPod to factory settings, nothing is working.

    think that fm accessory is not compatible with 5g ipods . just check it in www.apple.com

  • My new ipod is not compatible with my Mac computer. what do I need to do ?

    My Mac computer with an operating system 10.5.8 is not compatible with the new ipod nano I just purchased. What are my options?

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, none. You may want to ask for a refund.
    If it's an Intel Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update twice.
    If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

  • I need an RCA to ipod dock connector, compatible with touch.

    I've seen many RCA to dock cables, but i've seen most of them through reviews are not capatible with the iphone, so im guessing its not compatible with itouch? Is there any RCA to dock cable specifically compatible with the touch?

    If you have a dock there is a minijack female in the dock which will provide you equal quality.
    Or, if you search through the threads, someone else found a dock/RCA cable, but I believe the quality may have been a little dubious.

  • IPhone 3G Dock not compatible with iPhone 3G (or 3G s)

    I bought an iPhone 3G dock a few months ago and I'm having problems with it. I had an iPhone 3G and recently upgraded to the 3Gs. This problem is on both phones, but more often seen with the 3Gs. When I plug it in, I get the message telling me "this accessory is not compatible with the iPhone and asks me to turn on airplane mode. When I say no, the message haunts me multiple times. It's really annoying when I charge the phone at night since the screen turns on multiple times, waking me up; or when I have it charging on the dock and an audio out cable plugged into external speakers. (When the message comes up, the audio stops). I've heard a few people talking about this but haven't found a solution. Is this just "the way" it is with 3G docks, or is mine faulty? If so, has Apple recognized it and honors a warranty? It's pretty annoying IMHO and seems pretty out of character for Apple Quality Control...

    I occasionally get that message with a standard iPhone usb cable -- the once that came with my 3GS. This could be due to debris in the connectors: It would not take much to make for a bad connection.
    You might want to try cleaning them by using a clean dry toothbrush.

  • IPod classic not compatible with iMac

    All of my music is on a three-year-old iMac and when I plug in my new iPod it says that they are not compatible. And when I try to install Leopard that doesn't work either (the upgrade). Do I have any other options?

    Why not go to the install forum in the Leopard category and post your install problem?

  • Marantz iPod dock not feeding video signal to tv

    I have the Marantz IS201 iPod dock, which works fine for audio, and talks to the tv fine in terms of displaying iPod data on the screen. But when I actually try and play videos or photos, no joy - most I get is the little play arrow at top left of screen, for a moment. Anyone else have any experience with this?

    Easiest way to do this now is with apple tv

  • I have an ipo touch first generation when i click into an app on the app store i click on free or buy but a message then alerts me that my iPod is not compatible with this app. its says this for all the apps i try to download. so how can i download apps

    My ipod touch 1st generation keeps saying apps are not compatable so how can i download apps froms the app store??????????????????????????????????????????

    It sounds like you are trying to download and install apps that require a later version of iOS than what can be and is probably installed on your iPod Touch.  Your 1G iPod Touch can only be updated to IOS 3.1.3 and no higher.  You can check the current version by heading to Setttings -> General -> About.
    If the app requires a later version that iOS 3.1.3, then you will not be able to install or use that app unless you purchase a new iOS device.

  • I have got an old ipod touch 2nd generation , IOS 4.2.1 and i want to update to IOS 5 or possible 6 ?? as my ipod is not compatible to any apps on the appstore

    I have got an old ipod touch IOS 4.2.1. and i need to update to 5 or 6 ??

    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    Starting when iOS 7 was releases, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • IPhone 4 bumper/Apple dock not compatible

    Sorry to have to tell users this, but the $29 Apple bumpers that supposedly improve iPhone 4 reception will render the phone incompatible with Apple's $29 dock. It's easy enough to take the bumper off every night and put it on again the next morning, but it's also inconvenient and not in keeping with Apple's "everything works" technology.

    Okay, so I am mistaken, but it is also not clear with Apple Airplay, what video streaming will work. Apple should be clearer on what does not currently supported airplay such as movie or Quicktime. I am a big fan of lists that have checkboxes next to the items that are supported. However, with iOS 4.3 I think my "imagination" and "mistakenness" will finally be reality...so my question is mute.
