IPod Touch & iPhone 4 now not recognised on docking station.

My Panasonic docking station (had for several months and has been working just fine) has worked with all my Apple devices (nano, touch & iPhone) up until a few days ago, I now receive a message saying "not supported" and it won't work with any Apple device, any help greatly appreciated.

Bummer! Figured it was worth a shot to ask!
Maybe try cleaning the connector on the device carefully with a very soft, clean toothbrush, or by blowing compressed air on it. I have found that dock connectors are not as "solid" as the USB connector, so if there is some dust in there it might affect it.
If that doesn't work, then I would suggest taking it to the Apple Store to have them take a look at it?
Cheers,
GB

My ipod touch has stopped playing through my Sony docking station, It only plays through i pod. It's not the docking station as my daughter's ipod works fine on it. It can synch when connected to computer. Any ideas what is wrong?

Have discovered that I had not in fact updated the ios!!
Went through the process last night and my ipod now works fine on my docking station.
Thank you very much for your advice.

My ipod touch won't play on the new docking station I got.

My ipod touch won't play via the new docking station I got for xmas. Wors with a 3.5mm connector but not on the ipod connection itself. Seems like other ipods and iphones work on it but not mine. what can I do to fix this?

- Does your iPOd have iOS 5 and do the other devise have an earlier version?
- Some users have reported that some docks no longer worked after updating to iOS 5/5.0.1
- What the dock maunufacturer's support site say about compatibility wth your model iPod and iOS?

ITunes Remote used to work with my iPod Touch...now not so much!

Hello.
I was using iTunes Remote on my iPod Touch a couple of weeks ago with no problem. Now, when I try to use it, iTunes does not seem to see the iPod via the wireless network. I'm running iTunes 9.2.1 and iOS4 on the iPod...I think I upgraded both in the last week or so, and that's when the problems started.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

Ipod fell down and now not recognisable

My ipod fell down and now when I connect to my computer it doesnt show up in itunes or in "My Computer" as well. But it is asking me to reformat the ipod.
How do I get around this? If I reformat I guess I will lose all the songs in there and I dont even have back up of those songs (almost 15GB of songs)

Does the iPod itself turn on and work? Did you try resetting it?

Brand new iPod touch 4th gen will not sit on dock of Sony Dream Machine

model ICF -C1iPMK2
I even wasted money on the three pack of inserts to ensure my touch was resting properly
I have no idea why it won't rest down on the dock - it is like it's two different sizes of 30 pin connectors? is anyone else having this problem? I don't want to be too forceful with it for fear of breaking something irreplaceable

Im having the same problems with the latest ipod touch not sitting into a bose portable sounddock.
Sure, the portable sounddock has an aux port in the back which I can use once I find an audio cable with male ends on both sides.
After reading this thread, I took an x-acto knife and tried to remove/thin the piece of silver plastic at the back of the ipod touch. didnt help much until I took the same knife and tried to thin the grey plastic innard of the sounddock connector. That worked.
so basically, i removed a thin bit of grey plastic from the inside of the male connector on the sounddock.
was worth a try.
I've also emailed Bose support. They're generally very helpful with these things and the last time when I upgraded from an ipod mini to ipod touch, I called them and they sent me (for free) a set of new dock inserts for the ipod touch.

My iPod touch won't play music through the dock speakers

The other day I went to plug my IPod touch into my dock to play some music, as i do every night. My dock seemed fine, my IPod started charging, but when i turned the music on it only played out of the IPod speakers, not out of the dock. i figured it was the dock that was broken, so i plugged my IPod into my backup dock and it did the exact same thing. The only way i can get my IPod to play music out of the dock is to plug it in through the headphone jack. My IPod still plays music out loud so i have no idea what's wrong.

There is another thread entitled "brand new iPod touch 4th gen will not sit on dock of Sony Dream Machine" that mentions similar problems and claims to be resolved. Actually it is not. Some say that there is a plastic piece to bend but it is unspecified which one they are thinking of and which way to "bend" it. Besides, I am not sure any guaranty will work if one does this kind of work on the iPod. It would be preferable if someone from Apple would take responsibility and mention what has to be done or if there will be a recall of the items with a modified system.

HT4235 iPod nano 6th generation, syncing with audiobooks does not work now, had been working. Sync test says: No iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad found. Connectivity test OK, no physical problems, iTunes shows the iPod. Any clues what to do?

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.

I have an ipod touch and it will not connect to my wifi. It has in the past but now it won't even let me get to the point where I put in my wifi info

I have an ipod touch and it will not connect to my wifi. It has in the past but now it will not even give me the option to connect?

Did you just update to BUGGY OS 4.x???
All the updates starting with OS 4.x have completely screwed up most iPod Touch', especially older models like Gen 2 and 3.
Inability to connect to any WiFi.
Fluctuating WiFi signal no matter how close you are to the AP.
Drastically shortened battery life, even when in sleep mode.
And Apple hasn't done a **** thing since irritated owners have complained about it since the middle of 2011!!
(I am one of many thousands affected!) Look at older threads by searches of "Fluctuating WiFi", Terrible Battery Life, for the Touch and iPhone.
This is why I bought an Android tablet instead of an iFad this Xmas. Non-existant Apple support!

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.

My dad gave me an iPhone 3G to use as an ipod touch but it's not picking up wifi. ive tried everything to like reseting the network settings turning wi fi off and on mutable times, turned the phone off on and on. What do i do?

Get a replacement cable. If still under warranty, Apple will replace the cable.

I am having the same problem (lost in back-up purgatory) on both my iPhone 4 and my iPad2. I am running Windows XP.
I have tried everything I've seen suggested on various support communities, with no success.
I have gotten used to having to find a windows workaround everytime Apple updates iTunes, and this time it is especially frustrating.
I don't have any solutions, and I am responding to all of these types of messages in hopes of finding something that will work for me.
One person was able to work through it by deleting all of the previous iTunes backup files. I'm trying that now. 4 hours into it, and it does not seem to be working......
