Docking Station iPhone 3G

Hi,
I am new to these forums,
I have just recently upgraded to a iPhone 3G and realized that there is no docking station included with it. I noticed that I cannot use my older iPhone 2G docking station for this phone because of the body style differences.
Do I need to buy an adapter or just purchase a new docking station?

Hi Clinton,
There is a different dock for the iPhone 3G, its on the Apple online Store here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB484G/A?mco=NDY5OTYwNw
There are iPhone 3G dock adapters, but they will not allow the iPhone 3G to be used with the original iPhones dock.
Heres the link for the iPhone 3G dock adapter: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB546G/A?mco=NDY5OTE0Mw

  • Stereo docking station iPhone 5 using the 30pin adaptor not working

    I have a upright stereo docking station that I used for my IPhone 4, so now I have a iPhone 5 I have brought the 30pin adaptor slot so I can still play my music but it didn't work. Does anyone else have this problem. It seems to connect and recognize the iPhone but does do anything else. Thxs

    Hi, Yes im having the same issues with my Iphone 5. None of accessories will play music, only charge the phone. The adaptor says it will allow your old 30 pin accessories to play the new connectors but it wasnt untill i looked closely at the description "some accessories not supported" ..... some?? try alomost none!!, Im not against change as thats how things improve and get better but this move on apple's part is a stupid and very unloyal one to there customers.

  • IPhone 4 not working with Sony docking station

    Hi guys,
    My iPhone 4 is no longer working with my Sony SRS-GU10 docking station. It connects with the docking station and charges, but there is no sound.
    I've tried to reset my iPhone, but that didn't work. I've turned off the bluetooth and that didn't help. I blew into the iPhone connector and the docking station and got it working for 10mins. It's just strange how it's just stopped working! Just wondering if it's knackered or can be fixed???
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Jen

    Try the solution in the post at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3228386?start=0&tstart=0, it worked for me.

  • Looking for competent docking station for iPhone 3GS

    I'm having a terrible time finding a good docking station for my new iPhone 3GS. Before I bought it I used a 5th generation iPod 60GB. I have a belkin usb hub/dock for it that works great. When my computer is off it charges the iPod, and it's a powered usb hub as well. Occasionally I would plug in an AV cable to watch content I purchased from iTunes on my TV.
    I'm now trying to find a dock with equivalent or better abilities for the iPhone 3GS, and I'm coming up empty. Here's what I need in order of importance:
    1. *Plug into AC and charge iPhone when Mac is off, while still being connected via USB so that it will sync automatically when Mac is on.*
    2. Pass through dock connector to another dock connector on back so that I can connect Apple composite cables to TV, via the dock.
    3. Powered USB hub with 2 or more usb ports.
    4. A media card reader would be a really nice plus and make it perfect.
    The closest I've found is the Griffin Simplifi, however the FAQ for it on their website states this:
    "Will the Simplifi charge my iPod or iPhone while my computer's powered off or asleep?
    Even though the Simplifi has its own power supply, your iPod or iPhone requires an active USB connection to charge. This means that the Simplifi will not charge your device if your computer is powered off or asleep."
    I'm pretty sure their explanation is technically inaccurate, and simply a way of trying to shift the blame for their stupidity on to Apple. Nevertheless it makes this dock utterly useless (see item 1 above).
    Is there any way to accomplish what I need, or is it hopeless?

    Costco was, and may still be selling, the iHome Model iD95....  I think this model is only carried by Costco.  Other retailers such as Amazon.com sell the iHome iD83 App-Enhanced 30-pin iPod/iPhone/iPad Alarm Clock Speaker Dock.  See the description of this model at Amazon.com.    Both my model and the one on Amazon.com are described as a HOME SYSTEM for your iPad.    It has a dock on the top of the AM-FM Radio which will accommodate either an iPad, iPod or iPhone (up to model 4s).  If you have an iPhone5 or newest iPad, you can get a "30 pin to lightning" adapter to accommodate.   I just got an iPhone 5, and ordered the "30 pin to Lightning" adapter, so that I can once again use my iPhone on the dock.   It has 2 alarms, and numerous other features, including a battery backup, digital display, it charges your iPad/iPod/iPhone, and it has pretty darn good stereo speakers.  It's easy to adjust the base and treble.  Price when I bought it in September, was $79.95 and there was a $20 coupon.   It is easy to program music or Pandora from an iPhone/iPod/iPad, and can even program for music or Pandora before going to sleep and shuts itself off at a specified time, and then can turn on the radio or an alarm, or music or Pandora at a specified time in the morning.   I'm happy with it.

  • HT4972 since update to IOS 5.1.1  -  problem with iluv IMM173 DUAL DOCK ALARM CLOCK DOCKING STATION. - CRASHES WHENEVER UPDATED IPHONE 4S CONNECTED

    Hi, since most recent update (IOS 5.1.1) to my iphone 4s, I am experiencing problems(ONLY SINCE MOST RECENT IOS 5.1.1.UPDATE) with my 'iluv' IMM173 DUAL DOCK ALARM CLOCK DOCKING STATION.
    Every time I connect my iphone it causes the docking station to crash/freeze and become totally non-responsive. However, if I remove my iphone, then connect my wife's
    iphone 4 (IOS 5.0.10) The docking station then syncs time and date as normal with the iphone, and reverts back to function normally.
    Has anyone else experienced the problem please, and if so, is there a remedy ?

    1.  I cannot open my camera from the home screen.  The icon is there but when you click on it it shakes and starts to open up but than slides down back to the home screen.  I have tried closing the camera app resetting my phone but nothing seems to fix it.   I can still open up the camera regularly by unlocking the phone first and than going to the camera app.  But the camera button on the home screen just doesn't work for me anymore.  I know with 5.1 they made it where it wont disappearing from the home screen so my guess is the issue must be related to that somehow.
    From the locked screen, swipe the camera icon upwards to open the camera app.  This is a new feature in 5.1.

  • Is it possible to get iPhone audio (telephone calls) from Lightning connection? Music works, but calls switch to internal or extenral speakers, not lightning (for e.g. docking station, car...)!

    Is it possible to get iPhone audio (telephone calls) from Lightning connection? Music works, but calls switch to internal or extenral speakers, not lightning (for e.g. docking station, car...)!
    I want to get the audio out of the lightning connection (the way you get audio when you connect it to a dock). It works properly with music, but when making a telephone call, it switches to the internal speraker. You can change to the external spekers, but you cannot select another audio out. It's also possible to get the telephone audio from the analogue connection, but that's not what I want. I want telephone audio from lightning...
    Would be so great if anybody has an idea

    I must also say that the second update ruined my Lumia's battery life.
    With the first (out-of-the-box) update the phone usually had 30 percent of battery after a quite hard day (e.g. more than an hour of talking via bluetooth handsfree, more than two hours of listening to the music via bluetooth, more than an hour of browsing via wifi, and reading hundreds of e-mails via two mail accounts). I never managed to discharge it after one day (e.g. 14-16 hours) of continous use, no matter how much I talked, listened and browsed.
    Now, with the secod update, it discharges to 20% after 12 hours of laying still almost without use (30 mins of music, less than 15 mins of talking and nothing more), and discharges completely with the usage pattern described above.
    Did the second update contain some Android code?

  • Iphone 5 doesn't work with philips DS9000 dock station

    The dock station Philips DS9000 doesn't work with the Iphone 5. I have tried several lightening adaptator but the problem is the same. Anyone have the same ??

    I have the SoundDock 10 and generally use the Bluetooth connection.
    I have just reinserted the 30 pin normal socket ( as in normal SoundDock)
    the Apple 30 pin to lightning adapter and with iPhone 5 have perfect
    sound
    It works so something in your set up is faulty possibly the adapter
    some have posted issues

  • Is there a cable to hook iPhone to docking station without taking off otterbox?

    Is there a cable available to connect an iPhone in an otterbox to a docking station?

    Use Do Not Disturb. You can set DND to only allow calls from people on your Favorites list, you would just need to add the work number to that list. See this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5463. Not sure if it has been updated for iOS 7, but should be relevant. You can also check the User Guide for other information. http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf

  • Iphone via TV out cables component av cable - docking station

    I bought the mac component AV cables to hook up my iphone to my entertainment center. I had the docking station included with the iphone so i hooked it up to the cables I bought. I changed the setting in the iphone to output to the TV. I set the iphone in the docking station and it just played through the iphone. After some experimenting I found out it was the docking station that prevented me from hearing it through my entertainment center. I just hook the iphone directly to the cables I bought from MAC and it works fine. I would like to use the docking station though.
    Any ideas or is a MAC issue?
    thanks
    Nixman

    I wouldn't be surprised if you had to purchase a universal dock to get audio working through it. Not worth it in my opinion, especially since the cable already works for you.

  • Allowing iphone 5 docking station to work with 30 pin accessories

    Hi All, Wanted to share!
    As some of you may know, we had a pretty scary incident recently. Attached are pictures of what remains of our 2007 Suburban. We are all okay but I wanted to warn everyone not to make the same mistake I did. This fire resulted from leaving an iPhone charger/docking station plugged into the car outlet. It overheated and started a fire, while parked in our garage. PLEASE unplug anything you have in your car outlets once you turn off your car!
    We were VERY fortunate that we found the fire, at 11pm, before going to bed and before it spread to the house. None of our garage heat detectors or house fire alarms went off (another item to take care of on my “to do” list).  Feel free to pass this along to anyone you want. Better safe than sorry.
