Ipod alarm clock ICF-C05ip

The alarm works perfectly on the buzzer setting, but with the ipod, it is inconsistent. It has worked correctly with two different ipods (a nano and a touch), but also with each one, it sometimes just does not activate. The times when it has not gone off, I've confirmed the ipod is properly docked, playlist loaded, etc. and, as far as I can tell, there is nothing different from the times it has worked.
I'm sure there's a setting or something I've overlooked. Any help would be much appreciated!

If you suspect the docking cradle is no longer making sufficient connection to your iPod devices please contact support for further troubleshooting before sending in for service. There are no settings internally to disable charging or iPod functionality.

  • Curtis iMode IP200 iPod alarm clock radio- will it fit the classic?

    Hey everyone! I currently just bought the 80gb ipod classic. I have a Curtis iMode IP200 iPod alarm clock radio that fits my old 4g ipod and I was wondering if the classic is suppose to fit in it. It doesn't seem to which is disappointing because I do like the clock. It came with lots of adaptors and I have the adaptor that came with my classic but it is not fitting. It looks like it can fit though...I don't much about the universal dock but will that make my classic fit this clock? or is the universal dock just another ipod charger... Thank-you.

    The Extreme Mac Luna will do 1, 2, 3, and 5. Not many other radio docking stations will get close. Most don't even recognize the iphone3g. I was lucky enough to already have the ExtremeMac clock radio when I got my iPhone... it's white, has dual alarms, charges but does give you that error message and tells you to put the iphone in airplane mode. I never do, and it clicks a little when a call comes through, but I can live with that.

  • Ipod alarm clocks and similar accessories useless with protector case?

    I am frustrated.  My child bought an Ipod Touch 5th gen.  We spent the money buying a good protector case for it so it will actually last and then she received an alarm clock that will charge the Ipod when docked.  BUT, you have to take the Ipod out of the case to charge it.  So it makes the alarm clock accessory useless.  Plus, I found an adaptor so that it could be plugged in, it fits, but aparently it is not "certified" and won't charge (it seems to fit fine!! but is being blocked?).  I have looked at every docking aparatus out there and none work with a proper protector case and any good case does not come off quickly or easily to dock.  Nor would you want it to as its tough for the case to do its job if it is not on the ipod.
    Anyone found any work arounds that I can't find?  Why doesn't Apple make a dock extender?  Why do they block after market extenders?
    I don't know any adults let alone children that keep their ipods/iphones etc out of a protector case so why bother making accessories that can't be utilized?
    For such a large company with such a market share, why hasn't this problem been solved?  (OK maybe it has been solved and I am just unaware.  If so I take back most of the negative things I am thinking.  Someone please tell me I'm wrong!)
    If there isn't a solution out there, are there any other brands of tablets etc out there that are more durable and functional with accessories than the i-products?  We have more people in our household that will utilize a tablet of some sort in the near future.

    The previous discussion cites/provides link to a certified Lightning extender

  • Ipod alarm clock not working

    I usually don't like to wake up to a blaring beep in the morning, so I used my ipod and my nice com. speakers as my alarm instead. But recently, the alarm didn't activate at all. I tried restoring, updating, and resetting everything I could think of..what would be the solution?
    iPod 40GB   Windows XP  

    I have noticed the same (lack of) behavior in my 30G ipod since the last update.
    A really frustrating issue since I had gotten used to the Ipod as alarm while on business travel.
    I wonder when this will be noticed by those who can fix it.

  • Alarm clock dock

    Hey all,
    Has anyone purchased an ipod alarm clock dock? Any recommendations?
    thanks

    It would help to know which model iPod you have, since some docking accessories only work with the recent iPod. The 5th gen "video" iPod and the iPod nano seem to be the dividing line between new and old iPods.
    Here's a list of iPod models.

  • Looking for a good sound dock/alarm clock for iPOD Touch 4

    I saw one other post asking about a sound dock here and out of the 3 responses, I think only the Bose was mentioned.
    I was just curious if and/or what sound dock/alarm clock combos you all would recommend? I just got a hold of the White Noise app and I would like to be able to use it through a sound dock in my bedroom as I sleep with a fan at night and the audio output on the iPOD Touch itself is not loud enough.
    I don't want to spend an arm and a leg either on a sound dock/alarm clock if at all possible.
    Thanks,
    Whiteice

    Altec Lansing. Im using the 'inMotion compact' and for its size it gives a h*ll of a punch with bass wise. As for as price goes, its reasonable.

  • Ipod nano 2nd gen and dock/alarm clock

    i have read through alot of the posts and have not seen anything similar to my question.
    i got my daughter an ipod nano for xmas.
    we really dont leave the computer on alot and she was wanting a docking station/speaker setup. i found one that charges it/ has speakers and is also an alarm clock.
    she likes the idea of having the alarm clock with it.
    this is the model she got: curtis iMode ip210 link to where it was bought http://hhgregg.com/ProductDetail.asp?SID=0B568914D18A4CBEB2E80A95E8C46043&Produc tID=17180
    we have not hooked it up yet because of a small problem maybe. (hooked up to power that is)
    it came with a bunch of different adapters for the different ipod versions. well the nano one is incorrect. i guess due to ours being a 2nd gen version.
    the ipod goes right on the dock fine with out it.
    the little plastic adapter i got with the ipod kinda works in the slot of the radio but would need a little modification to snap in. the difference is the outside shape and would just needed some sanding. i have called the support number for the radio and all i could get from the was its not compatable. and i am not too sure why.
    from what i have found out is all the ipod dock connectors are the same and there is no difference. not sure about this just what i have noticed.
    i tried to call my local apple store and ask them but that guy started talking about firewire and problems. i told him how it docked and what it was and he still insisted on talking about firewire and those problems. i hung up as it didnt sound like he knew anything.
    so now would i be ok in useing the adapter i got with the ipod and makeing some slight mods(sanding outside edge) to it. or is the something totally different between the 1st gen and 2nd gen that would mess up the ipod if put in this unit.
    the reason i want this unit as it will replace her current alarm clock and she has a loft bed and its the only unit that we have seen that will fit and is in our price range.
    thank you for your help

    ipod nano 2nd gen   Windows XP  

    The dock adaptor that came with the iPod is meant to fit Apple's universal dock and not a 3rd party accessory.
    The reason you are having issues is because although the dock connectors on iPods are all the same (the pins are in the same place), the connector on the second gen nano is in a slightly different place than on the first. If you look at it from the bottom with the iPod face up, it's slightly more to the left. This, and the fact that it has a metal case with rounded edges, has made the new nano incompatible with almost all these type of accessories.
    It's been mentioned here several times, and a few people have been able to get the manufacturer of the dock to supply them with an adaptor.

  • Iphone 4s is no longer charging on Sony ICF-C05ip clock radio since upgrading phone to ios8

    Since upgrading my iPhone 4s to ios8 my phone will no longer charge on my Sony Clock Radio ICF-C05ip.
    The phone now comes up with the message "not compatibable with this device" and beeps.
    It worked fine before the software upgrade so not a hardware problem.
    Any fixes available?

    Try restoring the iPhone ,it may be corrupted iOS installation

  • IPod Touch and iHome Alarm Clock

    We were just given an iHome (iH4B) alarm clock for iPod. The specs state that it is compatible with the 2g 16gb Touch that we have. However when it is time for the alarm, the music stops after about 30 seconds and is replaced with alarm beeps.
    I think there is something wrong with the iHome but am wondering if there is some trick about the Touch that I don't know about.
    Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

    If it works with Bose but not with iHome, you should contact iHome.

  • IPod as Alarm clock?

    Can I set the ipod on my iPhone to work as an alarm clock? If not is there an app for that?

    You can use the built-in clock with ringtones as the alarm sound. You can pre-set multiple alarm times and repeat on selected days. +Goes To Eleven+ from MacMost iPhone Ringtones is particularly good if you're a heavy sleeper like me. Just check your speaker isn't muted before you go to sleep.

  • Using the Alarm clock -- does the ipod need to be on the charger?

    Does the ipod (touch 4g) have to be on the charger in order for the alarm clock to work?
    Or does the ipod "awake" from the off position and sound the alarm?

    The alarm will work if the iPod is asleep (screen goes black automatically after set period of inactivity or you momentarily press the power button and you have to slide to unlock). However, if you power it off (hold power until power off slider appears and you slide it) it will not alarm.

  • Ipod nano alarm clock

    Hi guys, help needed
    I was sent an email from Apple saying that i can use my ipod nano as an alarm clock, and thats true...i can, however it also said, wake up to your favourite track......
    heres the problem, all i can get is a setting for a beep, not to have it come alaive at the set time with my favourite track...
    any ideas appreciated
    I have the latest software, and use Nike+ on windows xp verion 2
    any help appreciated
    mick

    The track you want to wake up to must be in a playlist.
    So, create a playlist (with just one track if that's all you want) and select this to wake up to.

    Hello there philp_69,
    If I understand correctly it sounds like your phone hasnt been recognized in iTunes on your PC since the last couple of updates. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article which will walk you through the steps one by one.
