IPhone 3G and Original iPhone docking cradles

The new 3G does not come with a cradle. Using the OLD cradles works......but you really have to FORCE the 3G into the old dock cradle. Does anyone know if that's OK or if I'm asking for a problem by using the old cradles and making it fit?.

The Apple ear buds will NOT work with the iPhone. Only iPods. I mean the volume control. Why is that? Bad decision making on Apples part. IMO. That's not to say they won't eventually add support for it in a future firmware update. I'm in the same boat. I bought them and can't use volume control either.

Is it o.k. to use original iPhone dock for iPhone 4S?

I've still had my original iPhone dock. I connected my new iPhone 4S to the original dock. It is working good to syncing on iTune with no problem I think...
If this works, can I use this original dock with iPhone 4S?
As I know, new iPhone 4S dock is compatible with only iPhone 4 and 4S. But I wonder this old and original iPhone dock is compatible with new iPhone 4S.
Thanks in advance for advice!

If the dock works, it should be ok to use with your iPhone 4S. The pinouts of the connectors haven't changed and I've used an old iPod sync cable with my iPhone 4S with no problems.

Can I use my Philips SJM3140 iPod Docking Cradle with my iPhone?

Can I use my Philips SJM3140 iPod Docking Cradle with my iPhone 4s?

Pete, I'm grateful to have your comments... ! If you're like me, you may have the impression that the quality of technical support -- and documentation -- for third party hardware and software has declined dramatically over the past 10 - 15 years...
So my concern was that somehow different signal assignments / or current would be applied to the 30 pins (between the two devices), and that might result in frying my new iPhone 4s.
It would, nevertheless, be dandy to have the ability to 1.) charge the iPhone; 2.) transfer files over USB (from a third device); 3.) output stereo audio from the iPhone 4s via the (included) stereo RCA plugs to various devices; and, possibly, 4.) output video, via the Philips's S-Video port, to another device or monitor.
Your comments are helpful. And perhaps I can trust that the pin assignments are the same for the iPhone 4s and the iPod (for example, the 4th Generation iPod with color display).

That means your phone is now a brick. Congratulations.
That's a risk you take when you decide to hack the phone.

3G and old iPhone docks

I noted that I cannot put the new 3G into my old iPhone dock. Does anyone know why the difference? The phone dimension are very similar! In addition to getting a new phone, I will have to get new docks for the car charger, car stereo and office. Bummer!!!

Jorge is right. I tried to put mine in the old iPhone dock and the only thing keeping it from fitting in is the curved back of the new phone, whereas the old one was flat. The official iPhone 3G dock is available on Apple's online store..but it is 30 bucks....kind of price-y for a dock that should have been free.
EDIT: Here's the link

I'm going to have to buy it because I can't live without a dock....

You cannot. Apple also does not repair iPhones.
Did you purchase Apple Care Plus? If yes, they will replace the phone for a $49 fee.
If nothing else is wrong, I'd just put it in a case and not worry about it.

I have iPad2 and original iPad. After upgrade to iOS5 neither will connect to wifi network. Network is working as I have connectivity with iPhone and Mac Airbook. What's the problem?

I have downloaded iOS 5 to both iPad 2 and original iPad. I cannot get wifi to work on either. It's not my wifi as I have connectivity with other devices, just not with the iPad. Any ideas?

I'm having the same problem. The iPad has never roamed particularly well between access points, but under IOS6 it doesn't seem to roam at all, it simply sticks with the access point it first connected with.
I don't have a solution for you, unfortunately.

IPhone no longer compatible with iPhone dock after 2.1

I have an iPhone dock attached to my PC for power, with an audio out to a stereo system. Before the update I would pop it in the dock and use the remote to control music. Neat. After the 2.1 update, when I put the iPhone in the dock I get the alert saying that the iPhone is not compatible with the equipment and asking if I want to switch it to airplane mode as a consequence. The remote only controls volume now, not play/pause, skip or menu. So, of what benefit is it for the iPhone now not to be compatible with the iPhone dock? Or am I the only one experiencing this problem?

Which iPhone dock are you referring to?
If you mean the iPhone dock that came with the original iPhone then it is not made for the iPhone 3G as the phone does not fit. There is no other iPhone dock other than the dock that Apple are now selling here :-

This dock does provide the functions to which you refer.

IPhone not compatible with iPhone dock

Hi,
I've been using my iPhone with both the original iPhone dock and the universal dock for a loooong time, but the past few months there has been a problem.
When the iPhone is connected to the iPhone dock/universal dock it says (rough translation): "This equipment is not designed to work with iPhone, do you want to activate plane mode [...]"
But all is original apple equipment and all should be compatible - what can I do ?
Thanks
Jens, Denmark

Mine is currently doing this, it is also not shutting off, it reboots right after I try and turn it off, and it is not charging through my Macbook either. It won't even show up in ITunes. When I connect it it says that a USB device is draining too much power and has been disconnected. Terrific. Can't charge and won't shut off.

PLEASE someone tell me where to buy iphone dock that allows for otterbox defender case

I bought defender case ( otterbox) love its protection ( bought because first iphone 6 screen cracked/ owned the 4s and 5s and never ever cracked screen before this one!) small drop out of pocket, anyhow, none of my docks/cradles etc will hold phone now with otterbox case, I bought a Kidgi but it did not work, had to struggle using two hands to get phone onto it, and the cord kept falling out, sent it back. So now, I have no idea where or what to buy as my new iphone 6 charging dock /cradle that will enable me to leave my otterbox case on ( takes forever to get that case off, good protection though) please tell me if you know where or what cradle/dock I can buy ( link if possible) Thanks

This was a kickstarter project project - they released a version of this and are now working on version 2 - its designed to work with most cases
( i have no financial interest in the company - i just supported their kickstarter projects)

you might contact them and see if version 1 is still available for purchase

IPhone dock 30-pin connector to line-out 3.5mm adapter/cable?

Hi folks,
I'm looking for a compact adaptor or cable to go from my iPhone 30-pin connector to a 3.5mm cable (or 3.5mm plug). Wondering if there are any recommendations, as some pre-date the iPhone and thus prompt the iPhone to switch to airport mode...
I've found:
SendStation - Products - PocketDock Line Mini Out USB (I don't need the USB part, but it's handy I guess)
http://www.inspiretech.com/p-483-dock-to-35-auxilary-audio-cable.aspx
IPHONE LINE OUT DOCK W/ 3.5MM JACK (WHITE COLOR) - eBay Other, Audio Cables Connectors, A V Accessories Cables, Electronics. (end time 17-Sep-09 02:25:07 AEST)
ZIP-AUDIO-IP1-B iPod/iPhone Retractable Stereo 3.5mm to iPod/iPhone Dock Connector (White), Apple Mac and iPod Accessories
There are no doubt other (maybe better?) options so look forward to any tips.
Cheers,
B

Did deeper research. It's apparently true that phone call audio is not and cannot be routed to the "line out" of the iPhone. I'm disappointed. It appears to be a hardware design thing, as I've found no app that would enable this, and darned if I can think of a situation that would have this capability as a downside.

Iphone dock doesn't work with my iPhone

Hey
I really need some help with my iPhone Dock from Sharp.
At first I used the dock for charging and to play music, No problem.
But then one day it didn't work. When I put my iPhone 4 into the dock it didn't connect.
There is nothing wrong with the dock but my phone just won't connect, nothing happens.
I asked my friend to try her iPhone and it worked. Started to charge her phone and she could use it play music.
So why doesn't my phone work anymore? Have I accidentally switched something off in settings or what?

Ask the manufacturer not Apple

SendStation iPod / iPhone Dock Extender from GadgetLocker doesn't work!

Ok I went to the Gadget Locker and bought iPod / iPhone Dock Extender [URL="http://www.thegadgetlocker.com/productinfo.php/cPath/223/productsid/2787"]http://www.thegadgetlocker.com/productinfo.php/cPath/223/productsid/2787[/URL]
and than I bought an incase Case.
It doesn't work. The gadget used to support the iPhone does not fit into old docking stations. See photo 1:
The Dock Extender is to wide for the iPhone Dock!
See photo 2:
I called the Gadget Locker and the nice lady didn't even own an iPhone and could not try it! Do not use this company if you want a dockable iPhone solution

A little tape seemed to fix the problem, is this safe?
