Connecting Shuffle to DAB Radio

Hi all,
I have a cheap old MP3 player, which I can connect to my DAB radio, to play the contents of the MP3 player. How do I connect my shuffle to get the same results?
The problem arises because the earphones cable contains all the facilities to change volume/tracks etc, therefore if I was to use a normal jack cable to connect the shuffle to the DAB radio, I cannot do anything with it as there are no controls on the shuffle itself.
Any help welcome.

IPhone Connection to DAB Radio

Hello fellow users,
I have an iPhone 4 which I would like to connect to a DAB (Pure Evoke 2) radio so I can play iTunes. Unfortunately this older model only has a "Stereo Out" and a "Headphones" socket and there is no "aux" setting. I have tried connecting a 3.5 cable with no success.
Does anyone know if this is possible?

Daniel,
You may want to re-install the SAP Business One framework or B1if as if you did not have the SLD listing for mobile, there may be other issues with your install.
Regards,
Eddy

N8 DAB Radio available

Just ran updates on my phone and it says DAB radio. Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere.
You need a digital headset. Not sure why no internet radio yet.

I can tell you why Nokia advertise the release of the DAB app. The DAB radio accessory is now available for purchase - just made available. If you download and run the app. it detects the fact that the DAB accessory is not connected and puts up a message asking you if you want to buy the headset - clicking on this button will take you to the Nokia website for the headset. Incidentally - it is about £49 bought via the Nokia UK Store (including standard postage) but they currently have none available (possibly because they have sold well?)
It is only compatibel with the new phones - N8 and C7 currently - must have the new USB-on-the-go connection.

N8 DAB Radio - now available in UK

Just thought I would post the fact that today I bought the DAB Radio USB kit from my local Nokia Store - in fact it was the first one they sold.
Had to go to Ovi Store to download the application onto the phone, but have tried it out and it works well, even with a reportedly weak signal. You can either listen to the radio through the supplied headphones, or activate the speakers on the phone (with the headset connected as well as this acts as the aerial), and you can also detach the Nokia supplied headphones and use your own. I tried plugging in one of the Nokia MD9 speakers instead of headphones, and that works fine as well. Great bit of kit, but not cheap at nearly £60. However it will sure beat carrying a bigger DAB radio around when I travel and for work. If you are into DAB radio, may be worth a punt.

OK - further quick update on using DAB radio in the car. I removed the headphones and connected a separate FM Transmitter that I have used quite happily with an MP3 player - it has an autoscan feature and scans and saves four 'free' channels, and you can then tune to one of the 4. Initially, whilst close to home, the DAB radio played quite well - getting my hopes up. However when I went further afield, it kept dropping the signal for 2-3 second periods, and was showing a low signal strength. I think this is because the car acts as a metal shield. I could probably lengthen the lead to the transmitter, by getting an extension lead, and then lay that round the front of the windscreen to make a longer 'aerial', but whether it is worth it or not is questionable. Most car DAB installations have a fairly long internal aerial installed. So, for now I am resigned to listening to podcasts and music in the car which is OK. If it had worked it may have been useful at times, but it is not a killer for me. I wanted it to take on my travels as it is very neat and compact compared to any other DAB radio - it is, in effect, not much bigger than my normal headphones which I would be taking with me anyway.

Problem with new iPod software update and Robi DAB radio

There seems to be a compatability issue between my iPod Classic and my Robi DAB radio attachment. The DAB radio was working just fine until last week, when I downloaded the latest iPod software updates. Since then, the Robi works fine when it is used as a remote control for the iPod, but when it is used in radio mode, the iPod shuts down after a few minutes (as though it does not recognise that the radio is still attached, and thinks that there is no activity) and the Robi closes down too (due to lack of battery power when the iPod is no longer on). It could be a coincidence, but my guess is that the iPod updates are causing a problem.
I have tried to remove the new software updates from the iPod, ie I deleted the latest updates from the iPod software updates file (C/Documents and Settings/user name/Application data/Apple Computer/iTunes/iPod Software updates), unchecked the box labelled "automatically check for software updates", and then tried to restore the iPod using the old software. At that point, a message from iTunes appeared, to the effect that it could not go any further due to no internet connection. I could not find any way of restoring the iPod without letting iTunes download the current sortware updates.
So the question is, does anyone else have a similar compatability problem (with the Robi or anything else) and how can I get the iPod to run on the previous software?
I would be very grateful for any advice, as this is a very frustrating problem.

The good news is that I removed the most recent iPod software update, restored the iPod (ie returned it to factory settings and reloaded all 14500 songs) and now I am really pleased to say that the iPod and the Robi are working together again in harmony, which is a huge relief.
Since I had inadvertently deleted the previous version of the iPod software from my PC, I had to download the files from here;
http://rapidshare.com/files/73863240/1.0.3.zip.html
I have contacted Roberts Radio about this problem. The recent 1.1 software update must be even more frustrating for them, since they have sold lots of Robi radios.
If anyone needs help to revert to the previous iPod software, have a look at this thread, where the instructions are printed in red;

Trouble properly connecting Shuffle to PC

We use Windows Vista Home Premium, iTunes v8.0.1
My son has iPod Shuffle. He once had registered this Shuffle on PC1 but
since PC1 is not longer being used, his Shuffle is now used on PC2.
Whenever we connect Shuffle to PC2 and try to open up his iTunes library, there is a message
that states something like "Your iPod is registered on two PCs. iTunes library can only be registered on one PC. Would you like to erase contents from iPod?"
If we answer "no" to above, Shuffle is not recognized by PC2.
If we answer "yes" to above, the operation will delete entire contents from Shuffle and then we must everytime manually copy contents from iTunes library to Shuffle so we can listen to music from the Shuffle.
I tried initializing Shuffle to its factory state but above message still comes out.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve such message from showing up each time?

IMO, you have 2 options:
1. Allow iTunes on PC2 to sync the iPod (click 'yes' to the question you cited); every time this has happened to me, the messages stopped after I synced the Shuffle to the 'new' computer.
2. There are 3rd-party [that is, non-Apple] free utilities available on the web that will allow you to copy the Pod's contents to the PC before the syncing process erases the Pod, so you won't 'lose' any of that content.
Disclaimer: I'm a Mac-guy, so the advice I give you is based on my experiences w/ iTunes and iPod Shuffles on Macs, and it is possible some things work differently on PCs that I am unaware of.

I don't want Nokia DAB Radio - stop telling me abo...

Is there a way to permanently stop being advised of particular updates? I don't have a DAB headset and have no intention of getting one. I don't want to install the DAB Radio on my N8 but software update clearly wants me to.
Most software updates give you the option to ignore the update, but I can't see this with Nokia. Other than installing it, is there a way to never see this again?

You have two options, install it and bury it in a folder or just ignore the message about it.
There is nothing more that can be done about it and the update cannot be hidden. If this annoys you contact nokia care and ask for the complaints address.

N8 Dab Radio Application

I have just got the Nokia DAB radio, and downloaded the DAB radio app from the Ovi Store. Everything works fine, apart from Nokia using about 75% of the screen for the word DAB and still using the menu structure to control functionality rather than populating the screen real estate with useful buttons to allow things to happen with one click rather than having to go through the normal multiple-press menu functions.
As this app is ONLY available for compatible phones - touch-screen devices - why, oh why did they not, for instance put a pile of buttons on the screen instead of having 75% of the space wasted - say 4 buttons to switch between your 4 most used radio stations (which could even optionally be populated over time like Bots does with Contacts, by learning which stations you play most often) - another button to bring up the full channel list, another button to pull up you favourites list, etc. etc.
In addition there is no 'sleep' function, a major omission for any radio application these days.
Does anyone know of an application that is compatible with the N8 that is capable of closing a named application after a set period of time. If I could close the DAB app after say an hour, automatically, then that would function as a sleep timer.
Apart from these gripes, I have to say that the kit works fine and reception is great - excellently engineered bit of kit, as always from Nokia - just a shame the associated software is badly designed, a pain to use, and lacking essential functionality if they had reallt thought about it. It is the sort of app I would have expected to be suitable for my N95 but falls way short of what should be coming out for the newer Symbian^3 devices. This is now a HIGHLY competitive marketplace and the quality of Nokia's own applications leaves a lot to be desired - even for a lifetime Nokia fan like me - it is now 2011 Nokia - get serious and develop an attitude of excellence with the software/apps - not one of stunning mediocrity - or fall by the wayside!
My current phone - Samsung Galaxy Note

I really feel that I shouldn't HAVE to be teaching Nokia software developers to think - but, here we go ....
To add a radio station to the favourite station list you have to tap the station from the list which then highlights it, and then tap a button at the bottom to either Add or Remove it from your favourites list. (this single button conveniently changes - if the station is already a favourite you can, of course, only remove it, so it says Remove - and if it isn't a favourite then this button says, of course, Add). Now that is 2 taps. What is wrong with each tap on a station on the list changing the choice for that station - if it already is a favourite, then it is Removed, if it is not a favourite then it is Added. One tap. This is a touch screen - if I tap something then presumably I wanted to do something with it - as it is already a favourite, goodness gracious, I probably want to remove it - WHY MAKE ME PRESS A BUTTON SAYING REMOVE? Even if I make a mistake, and accidentally tap the wrong one, another tap and it is reversed.
It seems that in every application the philosophy of Nokia developers is "why use one tap where two, three or even more can be designed in" - have they never heard of KISS - keep it simple, stupid! No wonder Nokia UI and software is getting pilloried by the media generally - even new applications cannot be written intelligently.

How to connect grace digital wifi radio receiver to airport express.

Hi,
I need to connect grace digital wifi radio receiver to airport express. The receiver works fine with belkin n150, however when connected to express as primary base station ( belkin switch off), it displays
"Default gateway.......
Port 80 not found. not connected"
The conneted type is dynamic wifi network (POE + ). The express is set in bridge mode and configured through ipad.

Hi,
Called up the apple support services on Dec 9, 2013 and was on line for almost 1 hour without a solution. However, received a call back from team in Singapore on the same day and commitment to revert on the issue within 24 hrs. Received a call within 24 hrs and the entire discussion came down to the point that I have to manually set the grace digital equipment.
I tried other options and eventually the simplest thing to do was to set the connection option to DHCP only and ignore the error.
Now its working fine..

Is this thing on?

Unable to connect to i tunes radio "an error occured"

Every time I try to connect to i tunes radio, it says, "An error occured- please check your internet connection or try again later" I AM able to connect to i tunes store, and my internet connection is fine. I am able to connect to radio stations through the internet, just not through i tunes. Any ideas about what is going on?

I suggest you browse this forum. This issue has been going on for at least 4 days now. It happens to some part of the time, some for all the time, not at all to others. Some genres for some, others for others, etc. There's some things that seemed to help some people, though I suspect it was just coincidental or it solved a similar but unrelated issue.
It's not clear what the issue is, or where it lies. If it's something to do with Apple's servers they are not likely to discuss it. There was an issue like this a few months ago with the weather widgets and people kept on posting with no news until one day it suddenly started working, again with no news. If you wish to, you can report to Apple.

Ipod Speakers with DAB Radio

Does anyone know if there any speaker type accessories that also have built in DAB radio.
I can't seem to find anything remotely similar except for those systems that allow you to plug you iPod into a line-in plug.
Also surprised that no manufacturer has tapped into this market.
I want speakers for the ipod but I don't want to buy them and then find out that a dab model will be out soon. I'd also prefer to have an all-in-1 unit so I don't have to have cables lying around.
Am I being to fussy or is this a valid request..

XPERIA with integrated DAB+ radio

When will there be XPERIAs with integrated DAB+ radio available in Europe? For iOS there are at least accessories available. I would prefer to have built in DAB+. SONY has released DAB+ tuners in compact Hifi sets and in portable radios. Given that DAB+ is primarily targeted at mobile reception it seems weird that DAB+ is not available cell phones. It would also be a great way to differentiate the product given that other vendors do not have solutions at this point. For the UK it seems an imperative to have at least DAB included, for Germany DAB+ tuners would certainly raise awareness of teh XPERIA brand among younger people...
So when will there be XPERIAs with DAB+ (would like to have it with LTE in one set)?

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately we don't have any phones that supports DAB+ at the moment but I will forward your feedback about this.

Re-dab radio going off

Since I got bt infinity my DAB radio went off, but my FM works fine, and has anyone found out that money BT has taken and you don't know what it is for, I've had 3 payments two of £15 and one of £36 and no amount of phonecalls can extract an answer and yet every time I log in to my bt account I'm hit with a £70 owing well in my figures it is £20 I owe, why will they not tell me why I paid £36, and they have taken another £30.
Sorry about that ' but I'm furious about my radio loosing the dab and it's since my infinity went on can that affect my radio ?
coolpolitealex

Could be faulty radio but more like the smart flicking radio frequency on the home-**bleep** is messing with the DAB radio, turn off the home-**bleep** and see if the radio stations can be-found.
As to the bill i think you will find that BT like to charge 3months in advance why they will tell you thats the norm. I've never had this stupidness before personally i think they use this money to get a load of interest from it.
You will be told you will get this advance payment back if you leave remember that as i had to fight tooth and nail to get mine, if it wasn't for one of the mods on here well i think i would have gone to court; as BT insisted i owed them money even with the advance payment, but it turned out that they like to charge so much in advance that they charged my for the months that i was with my new ISP.
Good luck and record anything BT India tell you as they lie; in my own experiance!
