Connecting ipod touch to tv to listen music

Hello. I just bought a Dynex Universal Dock for my ipod touch. It works but it just didn't do all that I expected. First of all I thought I was going to see the main menu on the screen which I didn't. But then, the thing that gets me is that I can't play the music on the TV, I don't have a stereo, so I was hoping some kind of interface in which I could choose and play music. I can play video and it works fine, not great but does what is meant to do.
So I was wondering if I am missing some configuration or something on the ipod touch. Because I supposed that when you jack the cable the signal sound should be coming out to the tv. Does it? Or maybe there exists some kind of application that does the trick, and split the signal, make it look like it is for the tv, even if it is just audio.
By the way what I'm talking about is:
-Ipod touch 3rd G.
-Dynex Universal dock
-AV cable
Any suggestions out there. tx

Do you have this cable

Connect iPod touch 2G to Reciever using RCA's? It cannot be this difficult?

Hello!
Need to connect iPod touch 2G to my reciever using RCA's?
But +I do not want to use the headphone jack....+ (I heard I will get higher sound quality using the bottom multi-pin connector on the bottom of the touch going to a left and right RCA's) +I have uncompressed (AIFF) files on my iPod touch and want the best sound quality possible.+
I found a couple companies that make these cables with one being the Cables To Go 4-Feet RCA Stereo to Dock Connector Cable for iPod and also the Nyko Stereo Link for iPod, but from reading the reviews on Amazon neither of them will work with the Touch 2g (or the iPhone for that matter).
I am also open to a simple dock of some sort that would provide me RCA outputs. Seems as if Apples universal dock would be great but it seems to have NO RCA outputs on the back of it.
If anyone has a solution to this I would be very very happy!
+I have looked high and low for a solution for this seemingly simple task.+
All I want is a connector that goes from the bottom of the touch to 2 RCA's so I can input this into
my home stereo so I can listen to my ripped CD's in high quality. A dock would also work too! I do not need charging or anything fancy....
(already have try the Tekkeon NavDock for iPod which was cool because I could watch my videos on tv from my touch but i dont need that)
+*just looking for something simple that works with the iPod Touch 2G.*+
*It cannot be this difficult?*
thanks, techo

As I stated above, the docking connector is not a "true" line-out, it does have a volume-tap so the volume control will work. It probably is somewhat cleaner than the headphone out (haven't measured it), but it is not going to be a significant difference as any improvement you get from the connector is severely limited by the DAC in the iPod.
You get no improvement in sound from using the pins on the 30 pin connector versus a 3.5 mm jack. If you buy a Universal Dock it is passing the signal from the 30 pin dock to a 3.5mm female jack, then you use the 3.5mm to RCA. Going directly from the dock connector to RCA will not improve the sound, the 3.5mm connector is not inferior in itself to the RCA connectors.
The A/V kit will get you the ability to watch your videos on your TV and output the stereo signal to your receiver. If you want even better sound for your music, get an Apple TV and use the HDMI cable to transfer the video and sound:

My ipod touch will not stop playing music

My ipod touch will not stop playing music. I will pause the music, leave the playlist, and after 30-60 seconds, the music starts playing again. I use my ipod when I run and when I drive (hook it up to the stereo). It is very annoying when I stop to take a phone call or listen to directions, turn off my music, and then hardly a minute into my stop, the music starts right back up again.

FUEL1996, not correct. Apple does not allow one app to control another app.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

IPod Touch and AppleTV "bricks" the Music app

I use the Music app on the iPod Touch to send music to an Apple TV. If I have the iPod Touch transmitting and stop playing music (via "Pause") and I walk away from my wireless connection, I cannot access my Music collection. The page will display with the last song playing for the AppleTV and lock. Eventually, it will crash and future attempts to access the Music app will display the blue bar, white background, and black bottom bar before crashing.
I've contacted Apple Support. I've restored the iPod, unplugged the ATV, and exchanged the iPod. None of this has worked.
I'm positive that it is something software based. Apple Support suggests replacing the iPod (which I will do). However, this does not resolve the issue.
Thoughts?
Is there someone else that can be contacted that is not a troubleshooter? I've worked in Customer Service and I know the "we have no idea and we're going to do what it takes to get you off the phone" approach. The last contact, where I explained what I figured out was the issue, met with silence on their action. I highly doubt that anyone is going to submit a ticket to have the issue fixed in a future patch.
Thanks.

Solution: Doing a "Reset all settings" will release whatever hold the app has. You'll have to set everything up (I did it as a new iPod).
Restore did nothing to resolve this issue.

My ipod touch 4 keeps puasing my music for like half a second and then it starts playing again happens with all songs at random times

My ipod touch 4 keeps pausing my music for like half a second and then it starts playing again happens 2 to 3 time in any song

Hi, Radical2
This is not a complicated problem. And you can easilly solve it. Here is the way about how to recover music from iPod.
Connect your iPod to your computer to restore custom ringtones and ringtones saved to the computer. Click the "iPod" button in iTunes, or select your iPod in the sidebar if you enabled the option to show the sidebar. Select the "Tones" tab, check the box for each ringtone you want to transfer to your iPhone, and then click "Sync." Sometimes a 3 party tool such as Data Recovery may help you in a easy way.

White screen when first time connected ipod touch to mac

I followed the instruction on the quick start manual (open itunes,connect ipod touch to my mac,and finish the registration,sync music etc.)Then the screen is still WHITE. I've tried some efforts including reset and recover,but still white screen! Couldn't believe this!
Help me!
PS：The touchpad seems to be ok. When I push the sleep button and slide my finger on the bottom of the screen,such a sound like the screen is locked or unlocked sent out.

uncheck the music in itunes and resync to delete her music from your ipod
then create another account using everything the same except change your email address from a ".com" to ".net"
like me, I have an ipod touch and my mom has a shuffle, she doesn't like using credit cards online
so we use mine for both accounts but with [email protected] as mine and [email protected] as hers
that way we can both use the credit card and on the same pc but with different passwords too

I have a Ipod touch and recently added new music to my itunes library on my laptop. When I sync with my ipod, the new music does not show up on my ipod even though the sync process seems to be working.

I have an Ipod touch and recently added new music to my Itunes library. When I sync with the library, the new music does not show up on my ipod. The sync process seems to be working and there is still plenty of space on the Ipod for new music so I'm not sure what the problem is!

What happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

My ipod touch 4th generation wont play music

My ipod touch 4th generation wont play music. I hit the play button and it turns into a pause button but the music does not play and the song length thing stays at 0:00. It is brand new and has not been damaged. No songs are greyed out. Certain songs play but most dont. Please help.

I have same issue with iPad3. all songs play great, both songs I have downloaded and ones on iPad, except 2 albums by same artist that I bought from iTunes. maybe more, but I have not found any others that seemingly hang exactly as you describe at 0.00 seconds and with pause button displayed.
mindful meditation in everyday life and mindful meditation workshop....Jon-kabat zinn. I can play these on my iPhone which is on same account without issue.
I also checked console and don't see any relevant messages.
I have restarted.
I have not restored from backup, but I did do a complete restore a few days ago....I had lost my ipad(left in cart at Walmart), so sent remote wipe command....but got it back! iCloud restore was perfect. I takes a while, so hoping to avoid another restore and would rather find the issue.
please advise.
thanks,
phil

Okay so my IPod touch 4 won't play music through any headphone I put into the port. I've tried it with 4-5 different headphones but it still won't work. How can I fix this?

This isn't the first time something like this has happened but it has never stayed this way for such a long time. If I have to send it in for repairs I will but I'm not sure if its under warranty

To check for warranty coverage:

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. 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.

If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for theother 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

My ipod touch can´t play some music any more

my ipod touch can´t play some music any more. iTunes don´t transfer it to my ipod touch but the capacity is taken. Can someone help me please?

My problem is a bit different, but I suspect not really unrelated. With very few exceptions, my entire music library on my iPod Touch is mixed up since updating to iOS 5. Albums display with incorrect album artwork, and contents of the albums is a jumbled mix of unrelated songs (could be any song from my library). And they won't play. The library is fine on my computer.
I removed all of the music from the iPod, then re-synched it with no improvement.
I also removed all apps other than those that come with the iOS, thinking it may be an incompatibility. Also no improvement.
My next attempt was going to be restoring to original settings, but it sounds like folks have tried that with no luck.
I hope Apple is reading these posts and looks into what sounds like a myriad of issues with the new iOS!

My iPod Touch 4G will only play music when attached to headphones

When I attach my headphones to my ipod touch 4G, it will play music normally, but when I remove, it will not play through the speakers, nor am I able to control the volume as the volume bar will disappear and the external buttons will not work.
Please help me, thank you.
