Problem with AUX IN/Dock Connector

Hi,and sorry for my bad english!
I've just bought a Classic iPod 80GB and I want to connect it to my car,which has AUX IN.
I always connected my "old" iPod 4°Gen using the phones output but i read that the audio signal taken from the dock is more clean and useful for this situation (car,hifi,ecc..)
So i bought this
http://snipurl.com/1qmyi
I can charge my iPod and connect it to AUX IN.
But tonight i noticed something..Some song with this cannot be heard correctly (in my case i heard the lead giutar very very far)..Otherwise,if I connect it to the Aux In using the Phones outuput everything is perfect.
How can this be possible?
Is this a firmware problem of the ipod?
Thanks..

Problem with Apple Universal Dock and Iphone 3G

Just bought the newest version of the Apple universal dock (revision C), so I can have one dock for my iphone and all my ipods.
It appears that even the newest version isn't 100% compatible with the iphone.
When the iphone is connected via the dock, you get no alert sounds such as for new email, text, etc..when the phone rings you DO get audio then.
Also, when you try and sync the iphone with itunes while connected, it won't sync. It just hangs and says "sync cannot be completed"....
Connecting the iphone directly via the cable to the computer solves all these issues.
They advertise this as compatible with iphone but obviously not so...

Update:
I've checked this:
-Aux (Dock-Connector) of the iPod has no damage, no problems playing music in the car!
-Same Problem now with iPhone. It gets charged and so, but if I want to listen to music it is very quiet, music is playing for half a second or so, after that stopped, than goes on playing for a second or so. Cracking sounds often while music is stopped.
So the Dock is broken, I guess.
Any possibility to restart/resert or so by my own or try to get it fixed by apple?
Greetz!

Strange problem with portable iPod dock

I recently bought an iLive portable dock so that I could listen to my iPod at work. It worked just fine the first few weeks and then I took my iPod on a car trip and used one of those adapters that finds an available radio frequency to play your iPod over your car radio. When I went back to work the following week my iPod no longer worked right on the portable system. I have to turn the volume all the way up on the system and even then it's all static and you can barely hear the song. I can't imagine that it has anything to do with using the adapter in the car but that's the only thing I can think of since it worked fine before this. What's really strange is that my husband's iPod works fine on the portable system and he's used the car adaptor many times. I don't think it's a problem with the iPod itself because it works fine using the headphones and hooked up to the computer. Furthermore, the speakers on the portable sytem are good because my husband's iPod works on it and I can play the radio just fine through it. I'm at a complete loss and I can't figure out what could have caused this problem. As I said, my iPod worked just fine for three weeks prior to this and out of the blue this happened. Now I can't listen to my iPod at work and it really *****.

Does teh FM radio thingy plug into the iPod's dock connector on the bottom?
Have you inspected the pins in the dock connector of your iPod with a magnifying glass? You might have dirt, corrosion, film, something on the pins not giving you a good connection to the signal pins on the connector (but not on the USB power and Sync pins so the iPod would still sync ok to the computer).

5th generation iPod with 3rd generation dock connector?

hello,
I have a 30GB 3rd generation iPod, which is now a totally crammed... so I am planning on buying a new iPod Photo. With my 3rd generation iPod, a dock connector was included in the package. Will this dock connector work with the new iPod Photo, or do I need to buy one of those "Universal Docks"?
I was looking in Apple Store, but couldn't find an answer there. Does anybody know?
cheers,

Hey,

Replacing 1st Gen dock connector with 3rd Gen dock connector?

The dock connector on my 1st Gen iPod Touch has stopped working, and i have an old 3rd Gen iPod Touch lying around that appears to be broken beyond repair. Provided that a simple cleaning will not clear up the problem, will swapping the 3rd Gen's dock connector for the 1st Gen's be possible?
Since the male end of the cord is universal throughout models, i am assuming that the only problem might be to get the thing to fit.
But if any other potential problems may exist it would be helpful to know about them, before i take this thing apart.
I don't intend on spending any money on this iPod, as i am getting an iPhone as soon as possible. This is simply meant to be a temporary fix since i have no other portable music player at the moment.

The screws appear to be in the same place however, and the 3rd gen metal housing appears more compact than the 1st gen housing.
So there may be a spacing issue if you are trying to put the 1st gen into the 3rd gen, but not the other way around.
A potenial problem would be with the connections to the logic board. It would be helpful if anyone knows the specifics. Maybe i'll look up the company etched into the housing.
Thanks for the links by the way, they look useful if i it ends up working.
Edit: Actually, i have no clue what is holding the 1st gen's connector on. In the place of screws it appears they have some sort of pins. That may prove to be an issue

Faulty USB port message & froozen iPod with picture of dock connector

Hello,
I've got a problem with a faulty USB port. I've been connecting my 3rd gen iPod (2003, touch wheel, dock connector) to my windows using computer for year - but today it doesn't work. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and was about to syn/upload my iTunes library to my iPod but then computer says I have a faulty USB connection. There is nothing wrong with the USB ports. The iPod shows a picture of the dock connector, and then shuts down. I've tired resetting the iPod but the same thing happens. Does anyone have any suggestions?

the new updater is screwing up 3rd and 4th generation ipods. you can buy a new ipod at your local electronics store.

Could there be something wrong with my 4S dock connector?

So a while ago my iPhone's usb cord stopped working, so I bought a new one of the same type. Then that one broke, but I found out it still charged when I plugged my iPhone in, although the lightning icon that appears next to my battery onscreen didn't appear and it charges extremely slowly (like maybe 20% an hour, 25% at best, and around 10% at its slowest - and this is when my phone is off.) One of my relatives found out the wires inside the usb cord were messed up or something, and something of the usb cord wasn't tight enough so if the cord got pulled too hard it would get mess up the cord's wires again and stop charging my phone. Even then, it still didn't charge like the way it did when I first got it (icon next to onscreen battery, quickly, etc.) Soon enough, the cord stopped working again and I got so tired with it I just decided to buy a whole different type one. Here is the link to it: https://www.opensky.com/3d-luxe/product/iphone-4-4s-cable-usb-charger-sync-cord- 10-feet-new-steel-design-strongest-cable-on-market
This time, the icon still doesn't appear, although it does charge fairly faster than my broken ones last time (it charges about 22% in half an hour now when my phone's off). Then I tried plugging the cord into my laptop, but the usual iTunes did not appear, and my laptop notified me that the device was not working properly, and if I plugged it back in again and it still doesn't work then there may be something wrong with my device. Now I'm really confused because this cord is brand new, so how could it not work? I'm certain my laptop is working perfectly fine, so the only two possibilities that I can think of now is either the dock connector is not working for some reason, or the usb cord is not working. I really doubt the usb cord is not working, I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't.
Please help me on this. I've only had an iPhone for 3 months and it's already having so many problems.

If you have only had the phone (from brand new) for 3 months, it is covered by the 1 year limited warranty. You should make an appointment at a genius bar to have the device examined.
-Regarding third party cables - they do not always work.

Click wheel problems when plugged into dock connector

I just got my 80gb yesterday. I'm having problems with the click wheel. I have an adapter that plugs into my car stereo through the dock connector and also a Bose docking station. With my old 4th Gen iPod, I could use the click wheel to scroll through the menus while it was plugged in.
With my new 80gb classic, it has trouble scrolling when plugged into the dock connector. Is anyone else having this problem?

Similar thing is happening with mine, except the other day my boyfriend dropped it into a cup of beer... it worked fine right away but then when I tried to use it again a few hours later it wouldn't turn on. When it's plugged into my speaker dock, it lights up and first just shows a gray screen with an apple but I can reset it and then it works fine, plays music, etc... but when I take it out of the dock the screen freezes up with these horizontal lines on it. I figured it must be battery related too but not sure.
Sorry this is really unhelpful, I just wanted to commiserate and see if anyone comes up with an answer for you...

Problem with front panel USB connector

Motherboard: MS-6750
I have a problem with my front panel USB connector JUSB2 not working.
I have checked the connection to be sure that it is oriented correctly.
I also made sure that it was enabled in the BIOS.
Still no luck. There is not any voltage on this either.
I see a jumper or pin labeled JGS1 just below the JDLED1...do not know what this is and cannot find it in the manual.
Any ideas on what this is and how I might trouble shoot the USB connector?

Which 6570 MB do you have, if its the K7N2 Delta 2 Platinum and came with the Dled bracket try plugging that into that port on the mainboard and see if those usb ports work as it could be the usb hub itself not working on the front. Hope this helps Dok

Problems with Mountain Lion – Dock has gone and also clicking trackpad no longer works.

Hi,
I’m not sure how best to explain the problem I am having but here goes anyway…I have a Macbook pro (mid 2009 model) and recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Everything seemed to be working ok and I was enjoying trying to work out all the new features. However yesterday when I switched the Macbook on, once it had started some strange things were happening. Firstly my dock at the bottom had disappeared. Normally this is at the bottom of the screen however this no longer the case. I used the keyboard shortcut to show the dock however when I do this, the dock appears but none of the icons increase in size when I hover over them (as used to happen).
The other thing that is happening is that I cannot click on anything to open or select an option. For example, I can’t click on anything on the dock (when I can get the dock to show) to open an application, I cannot select from drop down lists etc (ie select file then software updates). Even when I switch off my Macbook I can only hit return for the shutdown mode, and cannot select one of the other options, for example restart. I tried to re-install Mountain Lion by holding down command and R (I think - I read this on another forum and followed the instructions) however when the Macbook restarted and the various options came up, one of which is to re-install the software, I couldn’t select anything to do this due to this track pad problem I have explained (probably badly!) above.
I should point out that everything was fine for a few days after upgrading to Mountain Lion and then the above problems started.
Can anyone help? I’m pretty stressed with the whole thing as I can’t use my Macbook now and am worried it’s permanently broken!!
Or am I better just taking it along to the genius bar at my local Apple store?
Thanks in advance.

Not the same symptoms, but I noticed that after a few days of running great, odd things started happening on my iMac. The first thing was that when I would boot the Mac up for the first time in the morning, it would boot into single user mode. I have the Apple Bluetooth keyboard, so I know there's no way keys are being held down.
The other symptom was that Microsoft Outlook 2011 would hang on launch. It would get stuck on the "Setting Up Identities..." phase. Rebuilding the Outlook database would help until the next time I shut the iMac down.
Also a couple of times it got to the Desktop after a boot, but not everything was working correctly and some startup items didn't load.
The iMac also kept booting into single user mode on the first boot.
I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion, and I thought that fixed both problems, until the next morning. Now I just don't shut the Mac down. I can close Outlook, and it launches in a couple of seconds.
So it would appear that something is becoming corrupt when OS X is shut down. If I don't shut it down, it's fine.

Problem with laptop and docking station

Hello.
We have two laptops with two docking station. Both laptops w/ docking have the same problem:
When the computer is turned off, and its still connected to the docking station, the fan in the computer start to run really fast. The fan goes on for a good while. This is making alot of noise, which can be annoying for the person using the office. When the computer is on, the fan runs at normal speed. If you disconnect the computer from the docking station, the fan stops immediately. Any ideas?
1. Product Name and Number
HP ProBook 6460b
Docking Station VB043AA
2. Operating System installed
Windows XP 32-bit
3. Error message
No error message.
4. Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred
No recent changes.
Thanks in advance.

It is possible the notebook is not completing the shutdown in full when docked.
Make sure the BIOS is the most recent version.
Here is the most recent one to try should you need it.
Other than that, I am afraid I do not have much else for this. I did some research, but I didn't really find anything that was exactly like this. I found scenarios where the fan would run at full speed when docked, but this happened whether the notebook was booted or not. You can try your luck in the business support forums to see if they may have something that is a little more helpful.

Problem with ELSTER and Business Connector

Hi all,
it's not really a XI Problem but I have no idea, where I could post it anyway.
For LSTA/LSTB with Elster we installed the Business Connector.
To check the settings we execute the report RPUTX7D0.
The following error message appears:

Many Thanks,

Problems with colors on dock.

I noticed today that when I look at the dock the colors seem to be messed up. The finder icon is a yellow color and instead of white dots under what is open, it is now yellow. Also in Safari, when a page loads the loading graphic in the address bar is a shade of green.
I have looked through the appearance setting and even though it says Blue for highlighted color, it appears as a lime green. I have made changes to the display color settings and nothing has changed it back. Most of the other colors seem correct so I don't know what is going on.
Can the color profiles get corrupted and is there a way to reset or restore them?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi
Thanks for the response. It was screwed up before I touched anything. I had everything set back to the original profile with no help before I posted on the board. And I noticed that the problem is affecting more than what I originally posted. Can I reset the display profiles somehow?
Thanks,
Chris

Yosemite problems with double click dock commands and keyboard shorcuts

I have a mid 2012 macbook pro 17", i recently installed Yosemite although it fixed my internet problem (connection dropping randomly) now i am having issues with opening apps and files. Double clicking on a file launches the corresponding app but does't open the file i just get and message stating the app is not open anymore if click the file again. Finder keyboard shorcuts such as command+Q don't work. Can't access some menu items such as "about this mac". Dragging a file into the dock icon launches the app but doesn't open the file either.
I have no idea what's causing this. anybody got a clue or having similar problems
Thank you

Same problem here. (Yosemite 10.0.1)
the mouse is a 'team scorpion g-reaver' http://teamscorpion.net/ts2014/g-reaver_1.html
It's work perfectly on the pc of my brother (he uses windows).
It's a clean install...
And has a funny fact... The Left Button was with this problem... So what I did? I changed the primary mouse button to the Right... Worked ok for almost 1~2 days... After that, the two buttons showed the double-click problem....
But, I repeat, the mouse works perfectly in the windows of my brother '-'

I have Problem with my iphone 5 connector

I can no longer plug the lithning cable in my iphone 5, it seems that the connector is bottled with a piece of black plastic.
Thank you for your help.

If you look at the bottom of the iPhone 5, you should see a metal "ring" which is where the Lightning connector inserts. On my black iPhone, the connector is a slightly different color than the metal at the bottom of the iPhone. The while cable has nothing black on it at all (other than my cable wrap I use to keep it "tidy"). I know that my wife had managed to get something (paper/cardboard shreds) in her connector on her iPhone and that was preventign the cable from fully inserting, but we got those removed with a fine pair of tweezers. The only other thing I csn think of which might be causing your issue is that your case might not be fitted properly for insertign the cable while in the case. I have seen this with some of the adapters, like the third party micro-USB to Lightning, or the 30-Pin Dock to Lightning adapters. I don't have this issue with my iPhone in the iFrogz case, or my wife's in her Speck case.
