Ipod with Bose system

I must buy an apple iPod Universal Dock Adapter to connect my iPod nano to the bose system ? or this adapter is in the box with the bose system ?

Actually your nano came with a universal dock adapter.
But for the Bose sound dock you shouldn't need it.
The currently available sound dock was designed before the univeral dock was created, so the adapter won't fit, but the nano is so small it will be able to connect to it with room to spare.
The only downside is that nothing will be supporting it once it's connected. But since the nano's so light that won't be a big deal anyway.

  • I've got an ipod nano, is it compatible with Bose systems?

    I've got an ipod nano 6th generation, and I would like to acquire a SoundDock (Bose) for Ipod. My question is whether they are compatible? I've consulted on Apple Store web page and this particular model is not included in the compatibility list. Some friends using Samsung and Sony systems have told me they use nano ipods with their systems.
    Thanks.

  • Ipod with Bose sa-3 map and outdoor speakers

    I'm trying to set up my ipod to play on my outdoor speakers (Bose 151"s) and I thought the Bose sa-3 power amp could run them, but when I connect my Ipod, either via my dock or from the headphone jack, I get very little sould out of the speakers. I have the ipod turned up all the way, and I have most of the volume limit set to let most volume through. Any thoughts? I have also tried to use the headphone jack on my Macbook Pro, also very little volume out.

    you would normally use the bose sa-3 amp if you want to connect other speakers such as your outdoor 151's to a Bose lifestyle system. You were probably better off buying a reciever and hooking up the speakers directly to that and then use an input on the reciever to hook up your iPod. I do this with my ipod and a cd player. I have both the Bose 151's and the 251's hooked up and it works great. You don't have to go crazy on the reciever i am only using a cheap sony but im sure you spent a pretty penny for the bose amp. but like i said that if for expanding the bose systems you already have such as a 3-2-1, a wave radio or lifestyle system etc. the ipod doesnt supply enough power either. hope you can figure it out

  • Ipod with bose speakers?

    I received a Bose speaker dock for x-mas and can't figure out how to continuously play album after album or artist after artist, It stops after album is over.

    My daughter's mini will not play on the Bose speakers although the speakers will charge the mini and it responds to the remote and her iPod works fine through headphones. My iPod (not a mini) works just fine on the speakers. What is up with this? Does anyone know?

  • 6th generation iPod with Bose Sounddock I

    I just received a new Ipod (6th generation) from the replacement program and I can no longer use it with my Bose Sounddock I.  Has anyone else had this problem?

    Or contact Bose and send your Sounddock to them and they will covert it for about $100.

  • Ipod all of a sudden not communicating with Bose sound system

    I am having trouble with my ipod communicating with my Bose music system. First off please let me mention that I have tried all troubleshooting procedures for both the ipod and the Bose system and nothing has help. I do believe that it is a malfunction with my ipod as my spouse has an iphone and it works like a charm while connected to the Bose system. Up until about two weeks ago I was able to enjoy my music without earphones or the ipod hooked to me, now I'm back to hooking the ipod and earphones up. About two weeks ago while my ipod was connected to the Bose system it started changing songs half way through and if I tried to control it by remote, buttons on the dock or the ipod controls it would just freeze up and no sound would come out. I am unable to forward to another song, change volume or even turn it on and off while docked in the Bose system. This problem just started before that I had no trouble with this. I have the latest update for my ipod so I shouldn't be having this trouble. I have turned it on and off and the same for the Bose system and have followed all the troubleshoothing tips and nothing has been resolved. As I said before my spouse's iphone works excellent on the dock this only happens with my ipod. With that said I am still able to listen to the music with the earphones with no problems.
    Another problem I have noticed is that not all my songs that are downloaded to my ipod are visiable for me to select. Certain songs I have to search for as I cannot select them from title, artist, album, etc..
    Please help me as it would be nice to enjoy my music without the ipod and earphone connected to me.

    Try Resetting the iPod
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    If the above doesn't work, it could be the earphone jack has been shorted, or clogged up and putting the Dock also in mute. This maybe repaired by 3rd Party iPod service.
    Have a nice day!

  • HT4623 I have an iPod with iOS 4.2.1 and would like to up date version 5. The pc I normally sync with has XP operating system. So I can't up date to iTunes 10. And my iPod doesn't show the software update button shown in the article. What can I do?

    You cannot update it if you can't get the latest version of iTunes. Actually, the latest version of iTunes will run in XP if you have Service Pack 2. Also, you posted in the iPad forum, and your profile shows you have an iPad, but in your post, you say it is an iPod. Is it an iPad or an iPod?

  • My iPod Touch is not working with Bose SoundDock.  How can I fix it?

    Try:

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79 Y can do the exchange at an APple store or sent it in.. They do not fix yours.

  • Need help with Apple TV connected to a Bose system

    I have a new Apple TV that I have installed with a Bose Lifestyle 28 home theater system connected by an optical cable.   The TV is also connected to a Directv box with the Directv box being connected to the Bose system via an Optical cable.  I get Dolby 5.1 when watching the Directv but when I put a movie from Netflix on the Apple TV, I get a message on the Bose:  PCM 2.0.  Does anyone have any ideas as to why I don't get Dolby 5.1 on this setup?

    DVI
    Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
    Analogue
    There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
    HDCP
    HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Resolution and aspect ratio
    I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)
    DAC
    DAC (Example Only - Not a recommendation or suggestion that this is suitable in your circumstances)

  • Using the video iPod with the Bose SoundDock

    I just purchased the new video iPod and Bose SoundDock, I noticed that I can't fast forward through MP3s when using the SoundDock remote, anyone else notice this? Downloaded the latest updates from Apple's website, didn't help...

    Hey,
    I had exactly the same problem and updated both my iTunes software and my iPod Software (downloaded the latest iPod updater) and the problem has been fixed. My iPod video is now running software version 1.1 and I can fasst forward and rewind using the Bose remote with no problems now!
    I loved the SoundDock before, but now it just feels all that more complete. Hope it helps.

  • 160GB iPod Classic Won't Work Properly with speaker systems

    My 120GB works fine with my iHome, and a new speaker system I just purchased... because I thought my iHome was broken, because when I used my 160GB in it, it didn't respond to "play/pause" commands with either the remote or the speaker command. When I tried the 160GB on the new system I bought, it didn't respond either. Should the 160GB work fine with those systems if they play the 120GB without a problem? I'm a bit confused on the issue.

    More info would be helpful
    What do you see on the iPod screen when you connect to the PC?
    Which version of iTunes are you using?
    What is the iPod software version as shown in iTunes summary page, the last time you connect successfully.? Or just, on the iPod, press Settings->About
         press the select button 3 times and you will get the software version.
    HAVE A NICE DAY!

  • Question about using iPod with a Mobile Mulitmedia system

    Hi All,
    I bought my wife a 16g 4th genration iPod Nano to use with her Valor Mobile Multimedia system in her car. When she plugs the iPod in the system via the iPod cable, all it says is "connecting". It seems to recognize the iPod but doesn't fully connect with it to play the music. I've tried my daughter's older generation Nano and it works fine as does my 60g video iPod.
    I've tried to contact Valor but their website isn't very intuitive. I've left a message with their tech support as well as emailed them, No repsonses yet.
    I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks all.

    The tv connects to your tv via HDMI or component.
    The tv plays video either from it's hard drive which it gets by syncing it from the contents of your itunes library on your PC or by streaming it directly (as it plays it) from the itunes library on your PC.
    Data from itunes can be sent to the tv either by ethernet or wifi.

  • IPod touch 4 with Bose sounddock portable

    Hey buddies, my IPod touch 4 (iOS 5.1.1) isn't fit with Bose Sounddock Portable, how come? You guys have any solution? Thx

    If you mean theat the 4G iPd does not full mate with the dock you have two solutions:
    - Modify the dock with knife and duct tape to make it fit.
    - Use a dock extender:
