Otterbox Defender ... iPhone 4 and dock!?!?

Does anyone use the Defender iPhone 4 case and phone with a dock?! If so ... is there an extender that I can buy so that I don't have to remove my Defender and still use my dock?!

Yes, you can find it here: http://www.valueoutfitters.com/iPod-Dock-Extender-iPhone-Dock-Extender-iExtend-p /ipodiphonedockiextender.htm
Works well, althought I have to admit I don't use my dock much. Mostly I charge in my car to/from work.

Otterbox Defender WILL fit V iPhone!

If you are like me, you do not want to wait until friday to pick up the Defender.
I went into the AT&T store and bought one for $50, which isn't too bad. At first, there is a small white tab under the vibrate toggle switch that will not let you toggle it to silence/volume, but if you take a pair of scissors or knife, you can shave off a tiny bit and it works perfect, and DOES NOT affect the case at all. It is pretty soft plastic so it shaved off nicely and still looks the same since the silicone covers it, now my toggle switch works great, and there is even a bit of room for easy access.
Just wanted to let you guys know, since this seems to be a pretty popular case. It is amazing. Only downside it that I ordered screen protectors, and you don't need them with this case since one is provided, but hey, that isn't too bad of a complaint, right?

Just a tip for anyone wanting the defender case. Buy it off of Amazon it's only $22 there for the all black one. The other colors cost a few dollars more but they're still $30 or less.

Most places charge around $50 for those cases. Amazon just seems to always have the best prices on everything. I check Amazon's price before I buy anything, lol. I'd return it if I was you. $28 is a big difference.

Does your Otterbox Defender fit loose and creak?

I just got a new Otterbox Defender case and love it. Only issue is that the tabs do not hold it super right and the case creaks a bit. The top and bottom are fine. Just the sides creak a bit. Is this normal? The case seems very secure though.

I returned mine after using it for 3 days..main annoyance is dust find its way under the screen protector..have to disassemble to clean only for it to reappear!..also really takes away from the screen resolution...didn't notice how much until I abandoned it!

What docks work best with otterbox defender

Are there any docking stations that work with an iPhone 4 in an Otterbox defender case. I am looking for something I can dock to without having to remove my case everynight. I'm not really to warm and fuzzy about dock extenders either. If not for the Otterbox how about the Life Proof or the Ballistic HC as those are some cases I have been considering?

Well, the Lifeproof will be even more of a PITA than the Ballistic, which is worse than the Defender, as far as hooking up to a dock
You may have to go about with the dock extenders, it's the only way it would work well.

Iphone 5 Otterbox Defender Case...Only Black?

So they are showing an otterbox defender case for the Iphone 5 on verizons website but the only color is black, but right below the description they show part numbers for the other colors. Any reason they are not offering the other colors yet, they are all over the otterbox site already and i get a good discount here at verizon that i would like to take advantage of.

I preordered mine from Otterbox. They sent an email last week and I ordered immediately. I liked the color (aqua) and I got the commuter series (I had the Defender, but it is way to bulky for me). I think it is worth it not to deal with the hassle of a store unless you live in an area where you think there will be a good supply. Good luck.

Should I keep the Otterbox Defender screen protector for iPhone 4S

Hello everyone! I have a quick question. I own a Otterbox Defender for my iPhone 4S and was thinking about removing the built in screen protector and replacing it with a Invisible Sheild from Zagg. Do you guys think I should do this? Also do you think a full body Zagg can protect my iPhone without a case? Let me know your thoughts and opinions! Thank you!

I originally used the Otterbox Defender with my 4S, and I immediately removed the built-in screen protector. I didn't like the way it felt when using the touch screen. Instead, I applied a screen protector directly to the screen. (I can't remember the brand since it's been almost two years.) I didn't care about dust protection. I just cared about impact protection.
After a few months, I ditched the Defender because it was too bulky. I've used an Incipio case since then and my phone still looks like new.

Otterbox Defender Case of iPhone 4S

I bougth a Otterbox Defender and used it for 1 week............it is great for iPhone protection but in the included holster (plastic), it is just too bulky to carry around on the belt. Love the protection...hate the bulkiness.
Now bought a very thin rubber case that adds very little to thickness or weight. Need a holster that will fix the iPhone 4S. Tried the BB case and the width is A-OK but the length is too short.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Oh, and make me an offer for the Otterbox plus shipping and it's your for a decent offer.

I have no problem with eBay. Just offering if someone on this forum wanted a real good deal.
But, I digress. Googling what??? Holster with rubber casing around iPhone 4S? You try it and see what you get. I tryed it.
If you want to give info........please try and give useful info.
I asked a question and if anyone had done this before they would have the information to help. Your info is useless. No one needs a SA remark.
But, I will thank you anyway.

Should you put a screen protector on the iphone if the case is going to be a otterbox defender?

I am trying to figure out if I need a screen protector on my iphone 4s if I am using a Otterbox Defender. The salesman suggested I should but I know a lot of people who do not use any screen protection on other cases/shells.

I never used a screen protector while my iPhone was in the Defender case. The Otterbox case is engineered to protect your device. I'm not sure why the salesman suggested you use both. I used the Otterbox Defender case for a little over a year and my iPhone was flawless when I removed it. Hope this helps.

My daughters iPod touch (4th gen and 4 months old) is not recognized by iTunes (PC) or our stereo docking station, but it will charge. Other devices (iPhone and another touch) work fine on PC and stereo. What is wrong??

We have an iPod touch 4th generation (4 months old) that is charging on our PC but is not recognized by iTunes. It is also charging on the docking station of our stereo but is not recognized by the stereo (will not play music). Other devices (2 other iPod touches and an iPhone) are recognized by both the PC and the stereo. What could be wrong with this particular iPod touch??

Iphone 3gs no video to tv with apple cables and dock

i have a 80gig classic 5th gen which i use with the apple component dock and cables to watch videos on my tv.however to get it to work correctly i have had to use a 3 plug scart adaptor for the connection at the back of the tv. discarding the component green and red pb, pr cables and only using the audio and blue.
if i use the component connection as i am meant to then the picture is not very good and is in only shades of red and white.
i cannot get a picture from my nano 3 gen ipod or my new iphone 3gs no matter what arrangement i use.
i can confirm all the leads were bought in february this year including the dock with remote - all as detailed on the website suitable for use with both the new iphone and nano 3 gen.
i have checked and tried all the various combinations of the settings and connections to no avail.
i was going to buy a new classic 160gig but im now afraid if i do it wont work.
can anyone on this forum provide reasons why the nano and iphone wont tv out as meant to, the only thing i can think of, is that the leads have been upgraded without being advertised as so - and if true is very underhand by apple.
iphone, nano 3 gen, classic 5 gen Windows Vista

Not sure what the problem could be, but have you looked at the manual for the ipod touch? Maybe it can help.

Does the iPod nano 3rd Generation charge and sync in an iPhone 3G Dock?

I wanna bye an iPhone 3G Dock. Now I have the question if I can connect my iPod nano 3rd Generation to the new dock for syncing and charging. On Apples homepage is the campatibility status set to only iPhone 3G, but I question this because older docks, like the one for the old iPod Photo works with other iPods as well.
The dock connector on the iPhone 3G dock seems to be the same as the one on the charging cable and that cable has to be inserted in the dock. So why should it not work?
I know I could bye the iPhone 3G cradle for the universal dock I already have, but I want to have the ability to make speakerphone conversations with the iPhone in the dock. That only works well with the original iPhone 3G dock.
Can someone help me?

Bit late on the old reply, but i'm using a different Apple Dock for my Nano. I have the Universal one,but it looked so big for the little Nano. I stumbled across an iPhone one by mistake, but only cost me £7 delivered, brand new.
So in answer to your question, yes. And it enables me to get a skin on the iPod and still use the dock...

HT201401 My iphone 5 volumn down button does not work most of the time. it feels fine. in an otterbox defender. this is my second iphone that it is doing the same thing.

i have a iphone 5. the volume button going down only does not work. this is my second phone with the same problem. i have had otterboxes for both phones.

Does not work even with the case off. I formatted and rebooted, reset, called apple and sent the last one back. It was free but this is getting old. I have had all iPhones and this is the only one I have had issues.

But you're only four feet away from your iHome dock... why do you need to use the headset as well?
