Is there a dock that fits an iPhone without removing case?

I have one of those clear plastic Belkin iPhone cases and it's a real pain in the a to have to remove this very tight fitting case to stick the iPhone into the dock to sync it. I use the "travel" cable right now but it would sure be nice to put it in the dock along with the iPhone bluetooth. The case prohibits this, though but... does anybody know if there is one out there yet that allows (i.e., a case) that does allow for putting the thing in the dock OR is there any sort of adapter?
Does that new 3-pack of universal dock adapters from Apple solve this problem or does that just work with the iPhone if it has no case on it?

Apparently in between my original post and now, I found an equivalent to that 'sendstation' thing that says it DOES work with the iPhone. Here:

I personally don't like the design all that much with the little wire gizmo that has to be used in some devices but I think it will work for my purposes which is basically to be able to put my iPhone into the DOCK vs. using the travel cable and to do this without removing my clear plastic case it's in.
My big complaints about the current spate of case designs and such:
1. No way to dock the iPhone in it's beautiful sleek convenient dock (especially the one that allows for charging BOTH Bluetooth and phone together) without removing case unless you get one of those overkill leather cases which hide the beauty of the iPhone's gorgeous design
2. The clear plastic cases (which are my favorite as they obliterate the design of the iPhone the least) don't have a really good firm clip for clipping onto a belt. They have a funkier paper-clip design on the best of them. Why these designers decided not to use the great clip design on the clear plastic xtremecases made for the iPods, I don't know.
Any case designers here? Get it together, people.

    You need to start over with Music. On the iPhone Music screen uncheck sync music. Also, on the Summary screen uncheck "Manually manage music and videos", then sync and it should clear off your phone.
    Next, choose the music you want to sync. If you want to fit more on check "Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC". This will reduce quality slightly, but it won't be noticable unless you are using $300 headphones.

    i have a screen with the apple logo on it and a bar underneath it. it has been this way for about an hour now. what does this mean and is there a way to reset the iphone without going into the store? it isnt showing in my computer or on the itunes page.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Removing email from iPhone without removing it from Mobile me server

    I currently have an iPhone and several email accounts on different servers. All these accounts give me to option to remove mail from my iPhone without removing them from the server. With Mobile me there is no option available to do this that I've been able to to locate on my iPhone. Does anyone know how to prevent the emails pushed to my iphone not being removed from the server when I delete them from my iPhone? Thanks.

    Mobile Me uses the IMAP protocol.
    This allows the iPhone + Server + all other PC/Macs you have your account on to remain in sync. Delete an email, it affects all devices with account, read email, read on all devices with account. Etc. Etc.
    This is normal for any IMAP based account. POP are the accounts that will not keep things up to date or the same.
    By any chance are all the other accounts actually POP? or are they also using IMAP?
    Typically you may find a default global settings in Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calenders - On that screen might be some deletion options.

  • I have all my devices connected to iCloud.  I would like a reduced contact list on my iPhone without removing any from my master list on my computer.  How do I delete contact numbers from my phone without disrupting the master list on my computer?

    I have all my devices connected to iCloud.  I would like a reduced contact list on my iPhone without removing any from my master list on my computer.  How do I delete contact numbers from my iphone without disrupting the master list on my computer?

    Are you trying to reduce the visual clutter on the phone, save space on the phone, or limit the security exposure if your phone is stolen?
    If you are only wanting to reduce the visual clutter and make scrolling through the list faster, you could set up a group on the computer containing only the contacts you want to see on my phone (called, for example, "Show on my Phone") and enable only that group inside Contacts on the phone. You might even have one or more existing groups that you could enable that way (maybe "Family" and "Personal").

  • Is there an adapter that fits the globe speakers from the iMac (PPC) to today's ports on iPods, iPhones, etc-

    I have an old iMac with the clear globe speakers. The connection on these speakers does not fit todays, computers, iPods or iPhone. Does anyone know of an adapter so that I could use these speakers today?

    If you don't want to go through the steps in the article (finding a suitable amplifier is the big hurdel), the only remaining option is the discontinued Griffin iFire:
    http://www.griffintechnology.com/support/ifire
    This was THE solution but did not stay long on the market. Used, this little gem now costs most that an awesome set of modern external speakers:
    http://www.amazon.com/Griffin-iFire-Amplifier-Adapter-iPod/dp/B00013MRT8
    You can certeinly look for one cheaper. If you can find one for under US$50, it at least sounds like a good finanacial investment!

  • Are there any docking stations for the iPhone 5?

    Bose, Phillips, Sony...don't seem to make units with the lightning connector.

    You have to buy "Lightning to 30 pin adapter" so iPhone 5 can fit on docking stations that works with older versions of iPhone, available from online Apple Store for $29. Maybe can get it from other places like WalMart or Amazon, etc.

  • Is there a way to backup the iphone without entering a passcode that was previously set?

    I have a passcode on my iphone, which I recently dropped. Both the front and back screens are cracked severely. I can see when someone txts / calls, so the phone appears to be working, however it is not usable. I cannot access anything on the phone using the touch screen. The screen continues to shake as if there are multiple fingers trying to operate it at once.
    Although it would be nice to get back into the phone, I would prefer being able to back it up just one more time. I sync frequently to icloud, but the last time I backed it up to my pc was 11/16/2011. I can access everything I've backed up(txts, images, etc via other applications), but I have some important correspendeces that took place between then and now that I would like to have.  
    Is there way for me to backup the phone without entering the passcode?  Also, I have read through some of the discussions, and pardon my ignorance but I wanted an unequivocal answer to this question:  If I restore the phone from the backup of 11/16, will I lose everything after that date? And, are there other alternatives?
    I have tried some things which I thought would be clever ways to bypass this problem, but alas...here I am asking for help. I find it frustrating that I can sync to icloud (still) yet I cannot backup to my pc without passcode. I guess a good alternative would be if I could access my txts on icloud? I may consider replacing the screen, but I don't know if this will fix the problem since the phone looks pretty bad. I also prefer not to replace the screen since I wont be using this phone any longer.
    Your comments / suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    reaL

    Restoring a phone from a backup will put the device back to the state it was when the backup took place, i.e. all info that you had on that phone before using the backup will be gone.
    You could try to restore the phone, which will back up the actual data on the phone, including the passcode, and use this backup to set up a new phone with. The passcode will still be the same, because it is  part of the backup.
    More info here, iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    Not being able to fill in the passcode is not much different from forgetting it.
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

  • Does apple make an armband that fits the iphone and a g5 ipod video?

    I'm getting an iphone for graduation in may but right now I have a 5th generation ipod video, and I have a gift card for apple. So is there an armband sold by apple so i can use the gift card and use the band for both devices

    They are different sizes with controls in different locations, so one case is unlikely to fit both (at least, not well). But, you may want to look at the Marware Sportsuit Convertible - it's being discuntinues so it's only $5:
