Lightning Connector won't dock with 32 g Touch

5th Gen Ipod Touch, never dropped. Lightning connector won't dock with Ipod. I tried three different cables.

What do you mean by "won't dock"?
Maybe:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Will Apple make a 30-pin to lightning connector that will work with a case?

Why did Apple make the 30-pin to lightning connector useless when you have a case on your iPhone 5/5s? The lightning connector part isn't long enough to fit inside when using Apple's own cases (i.e. the new leather cases for the 5s). Does anyone know if there are plans to correct this mistake and lengthen the connector?

From the reviews on Apple's site, the cabled adaptor does NOT work with Apple's own case - the lightning plug is too fat :-(

IPod Camera Connector won't work with iPod Classic 80GB?

I am trying to connect my iPod Classic (80GB) to my Canon 40D camera--to upload my images directly from camera to iPod. When I try, I get a message saying "Accessory is not supported." My local Apple store genius said that the iPod connectors only work with older iPods. I find it hard to believe that they'd eliminate such an important capacity on a newer version. Is he right? Or is there a way I can make it work?

I have sent Apple feedback a couple times in the past few years asking for the camera connector to come back and work with the ipod touch. The more people ask, the better.
Is it true that the new version of the SDK will allow apps to access the USB interface of the ipod touch? If that happens, then maybe some third party company can make something similar.

My Outlook calendar won't sync with my ipod touch and vice versa. Wherever I input the info is where it stays. Contacts and notes sync but not calendar.

My iPod Calendar won't sync with my Outlook Calendar and vice versa. Wherever I input the information is where it stays. My contacts and notes sync just fine. Please help. Very frustrated. It used to work just fine. I just upgraded to iTunes 10.2 version.

I have the same problem since I updated to iTunes 10.2 Sue (I think). For me this was somewhere in January.
I wasn't sure iTunes was the issue, until I read your post. I tested syncing a note, and that works fine.
My 2nd generation Ipod Touch runs on IOS 4.2.1. It won't upgrade to 4.3.
Possibly the synchonisation between iTunes 10.2 and IOS 4.2.1 doesn't work correctly.
Has somebody else solved this isue? I use both calendars (on iPod Touch and on PC) for work and private matters.
Otherwise I have to uninstall iTunes 10.2 and downgrade to 10.2.

Ipod 4g won't dock with sony pfx100ip boombox

Hi all!
I used to dock my ipod all the time to my sony docking system, but after a short period of time in iOS 6 it stopped working.
it does still work with my car stereo, but with the bose docking speakers it docks, but gives no sound at all.
i think it is a software issue, any advise?
thanks!

- Make sure the iPod is fully seated in the dock
- Inspect the dock connector for bend or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Reset the dock if it has that capibility.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Lightning cable won't work with any computers, but will work with wall chargers

My iPod Touch (5th Gen)'s cable is having some issues. I can not connect to any computers with it (I've tried two different iMacs, my Macbook Pro, and a car USB port that is used to play music through the car speakers). It used to work intermittently for a while, but now it doesn't work in any situation with computers. However, it will work with various power sources that have a USB port on them, but don't transfer data (A USB battery and a wall adaptor). This is using the AmazonBasics Apple Certified Lightning to USB Cable. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FA4Y66U/) I've had this issue with both iOS 8 and iOS 7, even after completely wiping the iPod.

IPod won't charge with Apple dock

For some reason, overnight, my Apple dock no longer charges my iPod touch. I set my iPod in the dock and the yellow caution sign pops up and says that charging is not supported with this accessory. I did not update any software whatsoever on my computer or iPod, and up until this time, the dock worked just fine to charge my iPod. I tried powering down my iPod, restarting my Mac, and cleaning the connector on the dock with a q-tip dipped in alcohol. Nothing worked. The only thing I can think to do is reset my iPod. Any other solutions to try to get my iPod to charge via the dock?

iOS: Device recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

I have moved my music to my new mac air but now it won't sync with my ipod or my iphone 4s

I have transferred mymusic to my new mac air from an acer laptop via an external hard drive and it's all there on the mac but now itunes won't sync with my ipod touch or my iphone 4s.
With the ipod it says 'iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. Could not connect to the device " It also doesn't show up at all in the devices section.
With the iphone it says there isn't enough space to sync even though I have experimented and unticked various things including photos which takes up a lot of space. It seems like it wants to sync with the empty space on the iphone (very small!) and not with the whole thing. I have tried various things suggested on this forum but have had no luck.

Is there a way to adapt an older ipod with 30-pin to a new dock with lightning connector?

Is there a way to adapt an older ipod with 30-pin to a new dock with lightning connector?

The Apple on-line store has two 30-pin to lightning adapters, but they are the wrong direction from what you want. Try a Google search, or drop in an Apple retail store and see if they have what you need.

Are any radio/alarm clock docking stations with a lightning connector coming out soon?

I've had the iPhone 5 for a while now, and I've been waiting for a product like the iHome to come out with the lightning connector. However, I haven't heard or seen any news about this. Is anybody aware of any products coming out?

iHome already makes docks that support the Lightning connector:

Adapter - New lightning dock with old iphone

Hi all
I have new speakers with an iPhone 5 dock / lightning adapter.
I'd like to use my old iPhone 4 or iPod 3 to play music on this device.
I can see plenty of adapters out there that transfer from the old connector to the lightning connector, but are there any adapters out there that transfer from the new lightning connector to the old?
Thanks

Copy everything from your old computer to your new one.

HT1665 Bose sound dock with the new Lightning connection of an iPhone5?

There are many accessories for use with the original 30pin connector, how are we to use these still great and useful items like sound dock with the new lightning connector?

Use the Lightning to 30-pin Adapter - this will make your iPhone or iPod very wobbly on the SoundDock. To correct this and prevent damage to the 30-pin connector, make a upper support for your device from a white polymer eraser. Cut it in an 'L' shape as shown in the photo, the dimensions depending on whether you do or don't dock with a case. You'll find your device is even more stable than when you used the 30 pin adapter. One eraser will make 3-4 of these supports, depending on the dimensions you choose.
