Ipod Hifi and I phone 3g - Charging
Hello All,
I have the ipod hifi (which I love) and an Iphone 3g which I am using as an Ipod at the moment.
But shock horror the hifi does not charge the iphone!! Pants!!!
Does anyone know anyway to correct this very annoying problem? Can you get adapters? or do I have to live with it? I was in love with apple until this point now we are not getting on.
Thanks all,
Charlie
This one works with my 6th Generation Nano in my WiFi:

when I connect my iPhone, iPhoto opens and the phone begins charging but iTunes does not recognize it and I cannot sync. Any advice?
Howdy AndieKanaras,
It sounds like your iPhone is being recognized everywhere but in iTunes. I would use the troubleshooting for that issue in the following article, named:
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

I dropped my ipod touch and now it wont charge
I dropped my ipod touch and now it wont charge. When I plug it in to charge it just keeps going off and on.
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

PLEASEE HELP I Drop My Ipod Alot And Now It Wont Charge It Wont Show My Notifications Even Doe They Are On My Home Button Wont Work Just A few Times But Thats It.and when on my vine i doesnt let me hear my vines idk why
You broke it, you will need to get it serviced or replaced. The drop voided your warranty so you would have to do an out-of-warranty replacement with Apple.

My grandson played with my 4th generation iPod touch and the phone icon and contacts icon are gone. I have gone to settings and done the "reset all settings" and "reset home screen layout" with no success. I also did a hard reset. No luck. I can get to my apps through the search screen but no icons.Help?
Try doing a Spotlight search for the Contacts app.

i was using my ipod touch and it was fully charged and it shut off on me and when i go to charge it all it shows is the apple sign
Try the remaining items of:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Had my ipod locked and put it on charger, now it will not even turn on and does not even register connected to the puter? Any ideas???
You just need to reset the ipod by holding down the sleep button and home button for ipod touch or the menu and centre button on others for about 10 seconds

My daughter bought a 4th generation ipod classic without a charger. The ipod was working just fine, but then we tried to charge it using a brand new charger for an Ipod Touch. It won't charge and someone online someone posted that there ipod touch charger worked on the ipad, phone and whatever else he had but it wouldn't work on the classic. Anyone else have this same issue? Any solutions?
The ipod did not come with a power cord as we purchased it used from ebay. The ipod was half charged when we received it and it worked well enough to transfer songs to my computer (the previous seller didn't delete their 2000 plus songs). My son then used the same cord on his computer to transfer the songs, but processed an update to the ipod and after that,it wouldn't work. So, I'm not sure if we received a bum ipod, an update issue or we have a charger issue, but the cord we used to transfer the songs came from my son's brand new ipod touch. We've also tried 2 other chargers from ipods we have in the house, 1 being a wall charger.
One individual posted online that he took his ipod classic, mac and phone overseas with one charger and it worked fine on all but the classic. So, I'm thinking that they cords may not be universal. Online I've read that it must be a 6 pin firewire, high power 2.0 usb cord. Or that I need to purchase an applie charger. We don't live close to an apple store and I'm reluctant to order one just to have it NOT work.
My daughter is learning the hard way that buying off of ebay is not always the best solution to a cash strapped 12 year old.
Any other advice is greatly appreciated. -
Bluetooth adapter for the ipod hifi and my iphone 5
is there a bluetooth adapter for the ipod hifi that will let me use my iphone 5 via bluetooth?
The lock button on my iPhone5 has also started acting up. Extremely annoying. I have to get it replaced, but I've dropped my phone once and there is a scratch on the top left corner of the phone, so I'm not sure what the warranty says about this situation.

New Ipod 2g and New iphone 3g Charging requirements
I had the 3g phone and could not charge it using my Lexus IPOD connector like the old one. It does not support the firewire pins,
does any know before I go and buy a new ipod 2g, if this is the same here. I have the current ipod touch in my Lexus and it works great, charges and I able to control it from my radio.You're not going to get an update for either one. They have reached end of life. 4.2.1 is as far as the iPhone 3G can go. I believe you're stuck with 4.2.something on the 2G iPod Touch as well.

I plug my ipod into my computer and it begins to charge, then in the bottom right corner it says installing device driver, and then says digital still camera failed. Im not sure what that means. Then when i open my itunes all my music is gone from my library and i dont know why. it says that my ipod is synced with a different library and gives me the option to transfer purchases, or erase and sync. All my music and stuff is still on my ipod but i dont know how to get it back into my itunes. Like eight of my songs are actually from itunes, the rest is from cds, and downloads, and my zune music because i had a zune, but broke it. Is there any way to fix this? Please?!? I beg for an answer. Please Help me, I dont Know what to Do. I want to be able to put more music on and there is no way im erasing the content of my ipod. PLEASE HELP
That's what backups are for. Use Time Machine. It's free and external drives are cheap. To recover your iPhone's content requires the use of third party utilities. Success is not guaranteed. Read:

Best Way (cables) to hook up apple tv , ipod hifi and lcd tv
Hi everyone, i would like to know how is the best way to hook up those three devices, i would like the sound of the apple tv to go out from the ipod hifi with digital audio cable and the apple tv acting as the airtunes. Thank you in advance.
Your best connection to the tv will be HDMI, failing which use component.
The ipod hifi has a 3.5 mm mini jack I believe but I don't think the tv optical doubles as a mimi jack, so I believe you would use a 3.5 mm mini jack to stereo RCA cable for the audio connection. -
MBP with IPod HiFi and Optical Cable Problem??
Hey guys, I just picked up a Hifi and was hoping to use it with my macbook pro. When I hook up a normal 3.5mm jack into the hifi's input it works, but when I use an optical cable it does not. Using the volume keys on my mbp bring up the normal Volume icon on-screen but there is a small circle with a line through it just below. Also, in the system preferences, under Sound and Output it says "The selected device has no output controls"
Any ideas? Can it work with optical cables? I can always use a traditional 3.5mm jack but would prefer the optical
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)It works in my case, I am now playing a song on my Itunes from my computer's optical out (G5 Tower) to iPod HiFi via a digital optical cable
Connect external speakers, headphones, or optical digital audio equipment. The headphone / line output jack accommodates optical digital audio output, analog audio output with a 24-bit, 44.1-192 kHz D/A converter, digital audio output up to 24-bit stereo and 44.1-192 kHz sampling rate and supporting encoded digital audio output (AC3 and DTS). For analog headphone / line output a standard audio cable with 3.5mm metal plug should be used. For digital audio, a standard toslink cable with a toslink mini-plug adapter can be used.
Open System Reference, sound, then output, in the box of choose a device for sound output , do you see the digital out, optical digital-out port?
Make sure out the output volume, the mute box is unchecked.
Regarding, the volume key on the computer is disable when your are using the optical output -
IPod HIFI and MacBookPro VolumeOutput very low
Hello,
I bought tne IPod Hifi to use it in presentations as an audiooutputdevice.
I have a small mediacompany and I think that my customers have to hear the sound I made in good and "loud" quality.
So the IPod Hifi works great with the IPod. Good soundquality and loudness... but when I connect my MacBook Pro to the IPod Hifi via minijack cables, the sound is lowerd abaout 3/4. That´s very bad.... In my first presentation the guys looked very suprised.... I come with this fat and big sounddevice and the output is very low... I just expected the same amount of loudness as it puts out with the IPod... but as I told only 1/4 of the volume in comparison to the IPod came out.
So are there any sugestions? (I put the audiolevel on my macbook up at full range)
Thanks for u´r help.I'm back now.
Take a look at this article on pairing your remote to the Apple TV

My friend gave me his old ipod touch and it won't charge
My friend bought a new ipod and gave me his old one. I believe it is a 2nd gen. It does not want to charge. I have tried everyone I know's data cable and charging dock and have not had any luck. Is there any way I could solve this issue without having to send it in or taking it to a service center. I'm just looking for quick fixes that don't require me to spend much money.
Have you tried restoring, and completely turning off your ipod? You may also want to check your settings.
Hope this helps
