IPod 4 no longer works with speakers as of IOS 6

I own both an iPod 4th gen iPod Touch and a Logitech docking system. My brother owns an iPod 3rd gen iPod and a similar logitech docking system.
My iPod worked fine with my dock until I updated it to IOS 6. I found that it could charge but would not play music through the speakers in the dock. I thought that this was a problem with the dock, but my brother's iPod worked fine with my dock as he was not running IOS 6. I tried my iPod on his dock and found the same result. Clearly there is no problem with the dock itself, but my iPod. Why has IOS 6 made it completely incompatible with my dock?

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.
- 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.
- Restore from backup. See:                                 
iOS: How to back up           
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If not successful that means that the IOS update broke compatibility, Since the 3G and 4G iPods has difference hardware, there are some differences in the iOSs for the two model iPod.

  • Why does my ipod no longer work with my alpine car stereo

    my ipod connects directly to my alpine car stereo and up til now it has worked great. i recently synced my ipod to my computer and i think it updated the software on my ipod and now my ipod no longer works with my alpine stereo. what is up? did apple change something that would make my ipod no longer compatible with my car stereo? if so, what do i do? i have about $1000 invested in my car stereo and ipod specifically for car use. this is a serious issue for me! i just want my ipod to work like it did…
    i just connected my friends ipod and it works fine. he has version 1.1.1 software on his. i have version 2.3 on mine. since my ipod works fine by itself i’m assuming that the incompatibility between my ipod and my alpine is due to the software update.
    here again, what do i do? how can i get an older version of software back on to my ipod?
    ipod v.2.3   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    what kind of connection do you have? do you use the ipod 30 pin cable that connects directly to the head unit? it so, maybe you could get help on the alpine site, or a similar site?it could just be a bad connection. you may just have to go oldschool and use rca cables and plug those in...

    My IPad 2, IPhone 3GS ans iPod  no longer work with apple TV, I have 2 apple TV in my house and for he last 3 weeks the iPod was the only one we could use for appleTV now none of them works, the apple TV icon does not show up any more. Re-started everything.

    Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
    RESPONSES:
    1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC.  I simply used the same iTunes login and account.  I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store.  If I click "Download Previous Purchases"  text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
    2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered.  I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam.  Good response for you.  Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome.  I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
    QUESTIONS:
    3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download?  Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
    SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU... 
    I work in the computer support section for the Military.  The only problem is we use Windows , lol.  Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover.  I go back next month though I hope.  But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein.  Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself. 

  • IHome no longer works with iPhone 4s after iOS 6.1 update.

    My iHome no longer works with iPhone 4s after iOS 6.1 update.  Prompts message 'This accessory is not supported by iPhone'.  Has anyone come accross this and is there a fix?

    Ring up iHome and ask them for a fix... And if they cant supply you with a fix... Then you should be entitled to a replacement or a upgrade, as firmware upgrades on your ios device should not affect audio products......

  • IPod no longer works with car stereo since upgraded MBA & iTunes

    My iPod classic has worked just fine connected to my car stereo since i bought it last june. I just bought a new Macbook Air (OS 10.7.3) & installed ITUNES 10.6.1. After I synched my ipod for the first time its recognised by the car but i get a "can't read data" message. I re-formatted my ipod but its exactly the same. Do you think its the upgrade- or the cable? Has anyone else found a bug with this version of Itunes or the OS? I have my doubts a cable would make the difference, and my old ipod nano that i haven't synched for a while works fine.

    If standalone works fine, then, most likely the 30 pin connect may have some dirt or lint, prevent data transfer.
    You can try to blow it clean, if you have a can of compressed air or gas.
    Alternatively you can connect it to the car stereo and do the RESET, while connnected.as follows
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    The Reset sequence may send a signal to the Car stereo to do the right thing

  • IPod no longer works with Older iMac (works with new iMac)

    Hi all:
    First off sorry about the cross post but I got no response to this question in the other forum. Hoping for help from this group. Thanks!!!!
    I have an iMac Duo (20" 2.0Ghz) running 10.4.8 and iTunes 7.0.1 which recognizes my 5g (and my wife's 4g) no problem. However when I attach either of them to my G3 (G3 500 MHz) running 10.2.8 (iTunes 6.0.5) they are not recognized.
    I believe that the 5G won't work because the G3 does not have USB 2. However, I do not understand why the 4G does not work.
    The 4G worked with the G3 for about 2 years. I have not tried to attach it to the G3 since we bought new computers (iMac for me, MacBook Pro for her) until today. I wanted to use it to transfer some files from the G3 to the new iMac.
    I have tried forcing the 4G into disk mode and connecting it to the G3 but that did not help (I tried this with the 5G also).
    I am using a USB cable with the 5G and a firewire cable with the 4G.
    According to software update all of the computers are 100% current.
    Thanks for any and all help!
    Gary

    I'm no geek but I can say that my 5G video iPod works just fine with my B&W G3 (450Mhz processor), which I am pretty sure only has USB 1. My G3 is running iTunes 7 and OS 10.4.5. Updating may solve your problem.

  • Moving songs around on iPod no longer works with upgrade to iTunes 7

    Hi.
    I just upgraded iTunes 6 to 7 on Win XP. I used to be able to move songs around on my iPod, but I can no longer do this with the newer version. All of my songs have now been rearranged in a different order than it was originally and I can no longer rearrange them.
    Is this a known bug? Is there something I don't know about the new version? I've scanned all the menus and cannot determine if and how this can be done.
    Thanks!

    Update your QuickTime to v7.1.3 and see what happens.

  • Ipod out no longer works with iOS 6.1

    As the title suggests, after updating my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.1 the iPod out function no longer works with connected devices. With the previous version, I could hook up my Kenwood car stereo using the lightning to 30 pin adapter and the stereo would "Read" my iPhone and begin playing the first track of my music collection. I also had song, artist and playlist search support.
    Now, all I get is a constant "Reading" indicator and can't get past this point.
    Is anyone else having any experiences similar to this and does anyone have any suggestions to fix it?
    Thanks

    Try this.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off.
    Set the date one year ahead. Try to get email.
    If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to get email again.

  • My computer with my itunes crashed and my ipod no longer works. I purchased a new ipod and would like to download my music but I am unable to

    My computer with my itunes crashed. I can no longer use that computer. My ipod no longer works so I bought a new one. I would like to download my itunes that I have but I don't know how to get the information onto my new ipod.

    Your itunes purchases for music, etc are tied to your itunes account - any computer (up to 5) can be authorized with your iTunes account information. Enter your iTunes account name and password in the iPod - you don't say which version of iOS is on your iPod so more details can't be given until knowing that.

  • All of a sudden, my 4th gen iPod Touch no longer works with my Apple TV, has Apple "upgraded" something to kill off this older unit? (IOS 6.1.2)

    All of a sudden, my iPod Touch (4th gen, IOS 6.1.6) no longer works with Airplay on my Apple TV.  It was working and still works as a 'remote' but not with Airplay which seems to indicate I've been abandoned by the message that pops up on the screen saying in essence "too bad you don't have IOS 7.1". 

    See

    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:

    paying special attention to item #5
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • My ipad2 is no longer working with my Keydex speakers..no volume

    My ipad2 is no longer working with my Keydex speakers..no volume.  I'm playing music from my free Pandora.

    In addition to jmarton's comment. You need to go through the process of setting up the Console One mount directory where all your GroupWise MTA and POA files have been mounted for access by NCO. Unlike NCO on Windows, NCO on Linux has no idea about UNC paths. So you need to create the exepected set of mount points for NCO so it can access them. Without these, it will be as if you have no domains.... But if you have NO groupwise menu options, including Create New GW System, etc. That does point at the plugins as being the issue.
    You can look in the About-->Plugins IIRC to see if they are showing up. You can start NCO with debugging to see if it struggles, and where. I believe the NCO startup options would be --debug --windowout [ --showhiddenobjects ] or some combination thereof.

  • My iPhone no longer works with external speakers

    Since upgrading to the 3.0 software, my iPhone (the original 2G model) no longer works with the speakers I have, or with my DVD/surround system. Previously it worked fine! Has anyone else experienced this. I'm so disappointed, as I use the speakers/surround system a lot to listen to music.
    If anyone could help, I'd greatly appreciate it

    OK, I just clicked restore to backup in itunes and after restoring the iphone, it seems to be connecting and working through the speakers now. Whew!
