My ipod is not playing on a Sony docking station and it is supposed to be compatible with it?

My ipod touch is not playing on a Sony docking station....what do I need to do??

- Is the iPod fully seated in the dock?
- Does Sony say it works with you model iPod touch and iOS 6.0.1? Sometimes an iOS update will break compatibility.
- Does it charge?
- Have you reset the dock?
You can try the following. Sometimes it works.
- 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.

I cant get my ipod touch to play through a docking station I have recently purchased. A second ipod touch works fine. Can anyone tell me why it wont play through speakers?

What model iPod and iOS works and which does not?
Sometimes a 4G iPod will not fully sead in the dock because its case configuration is different that previous models.
Also, sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility.
Have you checked the dock manufactuer's support stie for compatibility?

IPhone 4 ios6 won't play on my Sony docking station

I up dated my phone yesterday, I went today to play music through my Sony docking system and no music would play. It also said that this device is not supported and it would not charge. It is now charging but no music is coming through the speakers. I tried it with an iPhone 4s that is running on the iOS 6 and it works. Does some one have a solution to my problem.

My iphone 4 s will not work in my sony docking station

I just updated my phone on itunes and now it will not play on my docking station or when I try to connect to my aux cable in my vehicle

Hmmm, ok then, while this may well be a more extreme thing to do it might well be worth a try and that's to create a new user account on your computer, log into that and try a Restore of your iPhone from iTune in there. As it's a totally new user account and problems that may be coming from iTunes, the firmware download or really, anything from anywhere will be completely avoided. The Restore will be as "clean" as you're pretty much going to get it.
As with all Restores, doing this will delete anything on your iPhone so be sure to have a backup if there's anything important on it that's not available elsewhere.
If th problems go away then you know what to be pointing your finger at and you have options. If it doesn't then you can simply Restore the phone to a backup and contune on where you left off.

My iPod won't play music on my dock. It still charges on the dock. The dock will still play other iPods

My iPod will not play music on any dock. It will still charge on a dock though. The docks all work with other iPods, just not mine. I have tried to reset it by pressing down on the home and power buttons but it didn't change anything.

Are the other iPods 4G iPods with iOS 6.1.3?
If it worked before with 6.1.3 then:
- Make sure the i{od is fully sated in the dick
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- 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.

Sony docking station speaker not working with iPod touch

We bought a Sony docking station for the iPod touch (4th generation) we got our son for his birthday. The speaker on the docking station works when playing the radio, but not the iPod touch. We returned the docking station for another, and we are having the same problem. Which is why I am pretty sure the problem is the iPod touch and not the docking station. The docking station actually will charge the iPod, just not project sound out of the speaker with the iPod. It will, however, project sound out of the speaker when using the radio.
Is there anything simple I could be missing in settings? I can't figure this out. TIA!
Nick's mom

Use the communities search box in the upper right and search for
sony.
The go to advanced search and limit search to the the iPod touch forum.
Recently there has been several users posted here with the same problem with a Sony dock. I do not recall if it was solved.

My ipod is not playing the correct order of my songs in playlists

my ipod is not playing the correct order of my song order in my playlists. it plays random order of playlist songs

You may have tapped the Shuffle button (looks like two arrows crossing path) in Blue. Tap it once again to turn it off.

IPod will not play any music. Seems like it is in "Pause" mode. No sound from either the head phones or internal speaker. I have 418 songs stored and none will play.

Try restoring from backup. Next would be a restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

IPod Classic not playing songs

Hi
Grabbed my 160 GB iPod Classic yesterday and the entire thing was empty. No clue what happened. The only thing I did was update the OS and download a new album from iTunes.
Resynched the device twice now and now the iPod is not playing some songs. Some play, some tracks skip on to the next one without playing.
Not finding a clear solution in my searches, though others seem to have had the issue.
All my songs play fine in iTunes.
Would love a solution, cuz I like my iPod!
thanks,
D

What format are these problematic files encoded in? I assume you have worked through all of the suggestions here already?

My 30-pin dock is connected to my lightning to 30-pin connector which is connected to my iPod touch 5g. But my iPod will only charge, and will not play music through my dock.

My 30-pin dock is connected to my lightning to 30-pin connector which is connected to my iPod touch 5g. But my iPod will only charge, and will not play music through my dock, only through the iPod's internal speaker. Help please!

Have you tried resetting both the iPod and dock? To reset the iPod, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
To reset the dock, unplug it and plug it back in.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
