Ipod to car with AUX port using dock or HP jack is quiet

hi all,
ive got an aux connector in my car and connecting it to the ipod headphone port OR using the dock line out gives very quiet sound, i end up having the car hifi very loud.
id rather not use volume adjust in itunes to raise the file volumes as its fine to use out the car as it is.
do the car adaptor kits have amplifiers to get round this or am i looking at an expensive way to mount and charge the ipod but still get quiet sound?
cheers! Ads

Bozz,
Are you certain about the volume using the dock connection? I currently have a 3.5 cable going from my headphone jack into the aux in my stereo. I have maxed the volume on my ipod, but I find that the sound is not as good as when I have the volume at 1/2 on my ipod. I don't want to spend the money on a dock connector if I can't get good volume.

How do i use ipod in car with aux cable

Im trying to use my ipod touch 4 in the car with an aux cable and its not working, any suggestions?

Doesthe car's AUX input work with oter devices?
Do headphones work on the iPod?
If headphones work then if the car's plug is fully inserted into the iPod, that is all you have to do with the iPod.

im not shure but if you get an 3.5 mm sterio headphone jack and plug that in your car and shuffle it should work just as good

How do I get my iPod to talk with my iMac using FaceTime?

I know it's going to be something annoyingly obvious, BUT, how do I get my iPod to talk with my iMac using FaceTime? Both appear to work just fine with other emails, have made calls out to others using email addresses with both the iPod and the iMac. Have recieved calls from others on both iPod and iMac using phone numbers and email addresses. Just can't call my self as it were. Both the iPod and the iMac use the same email address, is this my problem? How do I get it work? (it's for my daughter so she can talk and see her mother when she under goes cancer treatment).

Yes, having the same FT calling email address is the problem. It like trying to make a phone call to your your phone from your phone.
On one device add another email address for FT and then uncheck or delete the Apple ID email address the Apple ID call email adddress on the device.
On the iPod go to SettingsFaceTime>You can be Reached At

Any way to communicate with Serial PORT using JavaScript

is there any way to communicate with Serial PORT using JavaScript ??
Dont tell me to do it in java because I need to this on client side not on server side.
such as when client pressed the button, a javascript function will be called and in that function I need to communicate with the serial port of that client... That action will not go to server side.

Is there any way to send a string of bytes to the serial port from the client side ?
Just a button on the web page that sends out stuff to the comport.
I was hoping to do this using java script also ..

Do 4th gen shuffle's play through car's aux port with male-to-male cable?

I have a 4th gen shuffle and male on both ends cable to plug into shuffle and aux port in car. I cannot, however, seem to get it to play any songs. I was able to play a first gen. nano through same aux port, but not the shuffle. Are shuffle's even able to play through car's aux.?

Thanks for the feedback JfromPtbo. I finally figured it out, and the solution was pretty simple. You have to turn the volume ALL the way up on the shuffle (not just a few clicks, but really hold down that volume-up bottom), while it's plugged into the aux port. Then, once you hear the songs, you can adjust the volume through the normal stereo volume controls. Sounds good for a $50 ipod and $5 cable.

S4 will not work with Aux port?

Headphone jack works on S4 but will not work connected to aux port in my car. Other devices work connected to it.

windyhill28 We want you to have a fully functioning device. Are you using the cable that came with the phone? Have you tried tried different cables?

Trouble with my Z2 using dock or USB to PC

I tried to do a search but didn't come up with anything entirely on point. My issue is when I plug my Z2 into a pc it goes crazy. A whole lot of lag, and any program I use constantly crashes/refreshes and the screen becomes very unresponsive (i.e. if im typing a text, the keyboard drops down and back up every 2s, or a website will flicker and reload, games will load then crash and reload). Eventually the screen turns off and won't come on again until I remove the plug. It also won't charge off the dock charger. It pops up a msg saying battery is draining faster than it is charging. Here are the the things that lead up to this:
1. I was trying to charge it at work with a sony magnetic charging cable ( I hate opening the flap), and it wouldn't register the charger but the screen would come on when connected. It was previously working fine up to that point with the charger. So I was messing with it to see if the contact points weren't touching and the whole phone shut down. I couldn't get it to turn back on until I got home and used the wall charger, everything else just made the LED flash red but not respond to power + volume up or down (which worked after putting on the wall charger for 20m)
2. I got the OTA update for .402 this morning. So when the initial crash happened I was on .69, but I never tested it on the USB before the .402 update. I've tried a few different USB cords, including the one it comes with. Tested the dock charger on both .69 and .402, neither worked. The charging icon just flashes.
PCC repair didn't help either, tried twice. Any ideas?

Contacted support via chat, they had me call and they said they don't have parts or the phone in the US to service me yet, and so my options are to call long distance to UK or Tiawan or wait an unspecified time for them to have the phone/parts in the US to service it.

IPod Classic Compatibility With Third-Party Sound Dock

I own a TEAC Micro HI-FI CD-X10i and I was wondering if it would work with an iPod classic 160GB. I was considering purchasing an iPod classic (I already own a 5.5 G 80GB iPod). Has anybody tried using third-party audio systems with docks? If you have, please respond.

Hey Funky,
I have a Bose SoundDock (from 2005) and my Classic-160 works like a charm with it. It also works fine with my Altec-Lansing inMotion portable speaker unit.

Ipod in car with kensington fm transmitter

I've been using this in my car for ages and I love it. It transmits my music to my car stero and charges my ipod..
My question is this: my iPod charges with a firewire, right? So can I charge my iPhone from the same thing and have it broadcast to my car radio? If not, why not? It seems online all charges are sold for either iPod or iPhone but not both.
Thanks, Susan

thanks

Any full iPod protectors compatible with the iHome H6 dock?

Just bought a 30 gig video iPod as well as an iHome H6 alarm clock/stereo thing. I've been using a evo 3 skin for the iPod, which I love, but there's no way whatsoever that it'll fit in the iHome dock with it on. So either I remove the skin every night and pull it back on every morning, which is getting old fast and will probably eventually damage the iPod, or I find a skin that offers good protection (no sticky screen/wheel film, I hate that stuff) that'll fit in a standard dock. Maybe something where the bottom third peels back easily or something.
Alternatively, and this seems much easier but I've had no luck finding one, is there such a thing as an extension cord for the iPod? Something where one end fits into the iHome dock and the other connects to the iPod? It seems like an obvious item to make, but I can't find anything even close to that anywhere.
Any help or information would be appreciated.

I have a similar problem. I use the Sonic Infusion speaker system and my ipods will not fit on it with a case. I at first did not use a case only a screen protector, then got tired ot that and found a shield that works and is scratch proof. If I am traveling I will put it in a rubber case just incase of bangs or drops, but I love the skin. I got it from shieldzone.com it is the invisibleshield. It works great. I do not use the click wheel part of the skin kit. I prefer the feel of the wheel without a skin on it. The wheel does not get very scratched anyway. I just use the front and back skin and really love it. Hope this helps.

Ipod touch working with a computer using linux Ubuntu os

I own an Ipod touch and I am thinking of buying a Dell laptop with a linux Ubuntu operating system. Does any know whether I can down load music off of a CD onto this type of computer and then load it onto my Ipod?

You'll have to search the Linux forums.
It may be possible - many things like this are done - but Apple does not support it.

Hissing noise on aux port

Is anyone having any issues with a loud hissing noise when listening to music in the car using the aux port and a 3.5mm jack cable. I have an iphone 4 and there is no problem but when i plug in my iphone4s i can barely hear the music unless both radio and phone are at full volume.

I have exactly the same problem.
I have an ipod touch = it works fine.
I had an ipod classic = it worked fine.
(I have even tried a dreaded android phone from samsung) = worked fine.
Now I have also tried two different iphone 4s = loud hissing.
I have also tried a latest generation ipod nano = hissing.
So I bought new cables for the car. An expensive shielded one.. = no change (lots of hissing)
The only other alternative suggestion I've found in the web is a aux-style jack connector to the iphone interface, which appears to work for most folks but then it won't be possible to charge my iphone and listen to music at the same time.
Arghhh!
