IPod Radio Remote with ipod Touch / iPhone

Hi,
Could someone post details of when this device will work with a touch / iPhone. I'm just about to get my iPhone here in the UK and one feature i like on my SE phone is the radio, why oh why did apple not add it from the word go. Anyway if anyone knows that they are adding it in a future firmware upgrade please post; this is a feature that would sway my purchase decision.

the 3 reasons I think a radio isn't built in are:
1.to keep the size down (silly I know just a guess*)
2. By needing the remote plugged In,it ensures the remotes lead will act as an ariel (like most mobile phones headphones do these days)
3.the most imoptant one here- so apple can charge £30 for somthing that did come in the box! (owners of iPod photos & earlyer gens know what I'm talking about!)
* I think the actual radios hardware is built into the remote & the software to make it work hasn't been included yet in firmware for the touch and iphone,i own both and I do feel that apple rushed the firmware to get them in the stores,but thats really not the issue.

    Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
    Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
    Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

  • Problems in compatibility of iPod radio remote with iPod classic 160 GB

    Hi all,
    I have just bought a iPod classic 160 GB and want to buy a iPod radio remote as well. However, after I have done my research, I find the radio remote is not compatible with iPod classic perfectly…
    Do you think it is a good idea for me to wait a new radio remote (maybe) or later Apple will release update?
    Thanks

    I use my Radio Remote with a Classic; it does everything that it had with my 5G-Video EXCEPT it will not allow me to set radio stations, either with the Radio Remote's control or the iPod's control.
    I have spoken with an iPod specialist (Apple Care) and according to him Apple has acknowleged less than 100% compatibility/functionality with the Radio Remote and the Classics. One of the reasons, he stated, was that several 5G-Video iPods were "getting fried" when the Remote was not fully connected to the docking-port. So Apple has decided to reengineer the port [for better a connection, I gather]. What puzzles me the most about the new generation of iPods is why they were rolled out without warning customers that their Car-Charger, Video Player, dock, AV Cable, or APPLE'S OWN Remote will not play nice with each other!
    This go around, it's find out the hard way.

  • Creating iPod touch/iPhone web sites with iWeb

    I have a web site created with iWeb, i was woundering if it's possible to create a web site specifically for the iPod touch/iPhone platform . Or is there some tamplates in iWeb for creating iPhone/iPod touch web sites ?

    Here's a site I created with the iPad in mind.
    http://ipad.dailynews.webege.com/
    I used a template from iWork's Pages.
    Then I made a page setup for the width and height of the iPad screen : 1024x768 or rather 768x1024.
    The paper size = 28,40 x 34,50 cm. The papersize is slightly larger because I had a background in mind but changed that later.
    The display percentage is 100% so it will look the same as in iWeb.
    I copy/pasted the objects from Pages to iWeb.
    Then used the iPad simulator to view it. Hopefully it's the same with a real iPad.
    See if you accomplish the same for the iPhone/iPod touch.

  • IPod touch / iPhone: Smart Playlists empty / missing after 3.1.3 Update

    Dear all,
    the following problem is very persistent and it happened to me and a friend of mine (iPod touch / iPhone), in both cases, smart playlists created in iTunes (Mac), latest version, are home to several tracks. These tracks are being transferred to the iPod/iPhone - but the playlist doesn't show up or is shown as empty (both cases happened). The tracks are on the iPod/iPhone if you select them manually.
    Re-Creating the playlists helped, but this is not the solution as the problem pops up with other playlists after having done that (however, the re-created playlists work).
    The iPods/iPhones have been reset, freshly installed etc., music has been taken off completely from them - the problem remains / comes back.
    It seems as if 3.1.3 has a problem with smart playlists and dubious one at that. Annoying at the very same time.
    I'm a bit disappointed about having wasted several hours of my life on this problem, that is not what I expect from Apple. :/
    Any permanent solutions out there?
    Alex.

    "Some sort" of solution.
    So after having dabbled with Apple's attempt for a solution, I seem to have found one that seems(...) to work for me when it comes to audio books:
    - create a new smart playlist
    - filter the current cd "Terry Pratchett (Disc 2))
    - counter is 0
    and(!)
    add:
    maximum of X hours, sorted by NAME... that actually did the trick.
    Of course, you need one more thing: you have to add the track's name to the name of the audio track... (see Doug's apple scripts for that script).
    Honestly... I'm a bit disappointed that I had to become smarter than Apple. Don't you want to give me a job, guys?

  • Tap Tap Revenge on iPod Touch/iPhone

    Anyone downloaded a game application called Tap Tap Revenge? It's for iPod Touch/iPhone with the 2.0 software upgrade. I browsed through the iTune's Application Store today and found this game. It looks awesome, but when I tried to purchase it for free, it said it was no longer available. I even tried closing/reopening iTuns and tried to download the application, but it was still no good. Anyone who downloaded this game before it's availability was gone, mind uploading it for me and for other people who are in need of this awesome application? I don't want to wait until Apple fixes it. I want to play now. D:
    I'll really appreciate it. Thanks~

    It wasnt working for me this afternoon and just downloaded it to try to kill some time and it works!

  • Internet: PC/Mac to Ipod touch/iPhone sync

    New Operating system update request: To be able to connect to the internet through my PC or Mac without buying a wireless modem
    My computer is in my basement and, most of my friends' are too, I really like playing my apps online in the comfort of my basement because it's steaming hot upstairs (where I can get internet) and I got want to get a wireless modem at this time. If there's going to be an iOS 4.1.2 i really want a Computer (PC/Mac) to iPod touch/iPhone internet sync.

    You can only sync all media from one syncing computer. First you have to connect the iPod to the new Mac and via USB and make the Mac the new syncing computer. See:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    Then you can set up wifi syncing.

  • IWeb - iPod Touch/iPhone web compatible templates

    Does anyone know if you can make iPod Touch/iPhone compatible websites using iWeb?
    I really want to do a website for my band and embed some tunes/movies so peeps with mobile items such as the Touch and iPhone can view em.
    Help?

    iWeb should automatically be compatible with iPod touch/iPhone-those devices get the full internet, with quicktime, automatically.
    good luck!

  • Can I set up an iCloud account without owning a Mac, iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad?

    I would like to know if I can set up an iCloud account without owning a Mac, iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad.  I own a laptop that runs Windows 7 and I would like to be able to access my past purchases for all the computers in my family.

    There is no way to setup iCloud on a PC, it must be setup first on a compatible Mac, iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.

  • Ipod touch / iphone / ipod nano won't connect to iTunes (not recognized)

    Up until yesterday everything was working fine. But now when I connect my ipod touch, iphons (1st), or ipod nano to iTunes, my PC recognizes them (show up in Windows Explorer), but iTunes does not recognize them anymore.
    I don't know what changed.
    I have reset all devices.
    I have completely removed and reinstalled iTunes. (I've tried iTunes 10.5.1 and 10.5.2)
    I have shut down and rebooted the PC (several times).
    I have tried different USB ports and different cables.
    My Windows 7x64 is fully updated.
    Does anyone know how to help?

    Sorry, I followed both guides and uninstalled everything - rebooted, reinstalled iTunes like your second link instructions said.
    PC sees all devices fine in Windows Explorer (and makes the pling sound when I connect them, they just do not show up in iTunes.
    (ipod nano, ipod touch 32GB, iphone 1st gen, ipad 1st gen)
    Manually starting or restarting all itunes/ipod related services doesn't do a thing either, nothing will sync.
    I'm at a loss.

    Thank you in advance.

    OK. I assume I can use the device to hook up to a projector/a big screen TV as well like a computer?

  • Ipod Touch / iPhone as wireless adapter

    i dont understand yet why apple hasn't given their iPod Touch / iPhone the ability to bridge a wireless connection and feed it to desktops or other devices. it seems to me that these small, portable devices would be perfect as wireless adapters. Why wouldn't apple want to do this?

    this being a user-to-user forum, you might want to ask Apple via _*iPod Touch Feedback*_.
