Trouble listening to radio apps when iphone is in docking station??

I bought a Phillips combo ipod docking station, cd player, etc. It plays my ipod fine. The makers claimed that is is compatible with iphone also, however when I try to listen to my radio apps on my iphone with it in the docking station so I can utilize the larger speakers, It plays the radio app for a few seconds, and then the ipod player of the iphone will automatically come on and start playing. Is there a way to lock it so it wont come when you are listening to other apps?

  • Can anyone recommend good bluetooth earphones to listen to radio apps on the iPad?

    Can anyone recommend good bluetooth earphones for listening to radio apps on the iPad?

    While not many systems come in wood grain, I'd go for a 2.1 system instead of 2.0 if your looking for better sound and bass.
    I really like my 2.1 Systems | Creative Inspires, but also check out Logitech or perhap even Klipsch and Bose if your budget allows for those.

  • What is the best Radio app for Iphone with poor Signal

    hi folks
    i live in rural shropshire, UK and where there is a poor signal reception and no 3G so i was hoping if someone could tell me what is the best radio app with about 2-3 bars of signal on O2 please can someone help thx

    Well, 2(.(7)5)G (GPRS/EDGE) is still sufficient for a lot of (mostly HE-AACv2) streams - they're between 24 and 40 kbps, . That is, first, check out whether there are favorite stations in the station directory of the HE-AACv2-specific radio app "Tuner2 Hi-Fi Radio". Note that there are other HE-AACv2-capable clients but this one is the best.
    Below is an excerpt from the dedicated section of my all-in-one iPhone radio article, just discussing these questions. Sorry, there are no links or not any kind of formatting in the text - I just couldn't paste it by keeping them.
    2.1 3G vs. 2.(7)5G vs. Wi-Fi
    Whenever possible, deactivate 3G (if you have a second- or third-generation iPhone used in a compatible 3G network, that is). Why? It’s easy: I’ve made some very thorough experiments with power consumption when streaming over cellular (mobile phone) connections. For this, I’ve listened to a 31 kbps VBR HE-AACv2 stream in Pocket Tunes. I’ve measured the battery life decrease of 0.6%/minute when streaming in 3G and 0.3%/minute when doing the same in 2.75G (EDGE) and 2.5G (GPRS). This means streaming 3G consumes two times more battery than in 2.75G with a stream that, when streamed over Wi-Fi, consumes 0.18% power a minute.
    This also means that, even if you have an unlimited Internet data plan, try using Wi-Fi whenever possible because it’s almost two times more battery-friendly than even 2.75G (EDGE) / 2.5G (GPRS) – and 3.3 (that is, 60/18) times more so compared to 3G.
    Having to rely on pre-3G stream speeds means the following:
    - If you only have GPRS connection (but not EDGE), select a station broadcasting at less than 35-40 kbps to avoid pauses and stuttering. You can easily see if your phone is in GPRS only: then, to the right of the name of your network, there is a circle and not the capital letter ‘E’ (it’s '3G' when in 3G mode and it’s here that the Wi-Fi signal is shown when operating over Wi-Fi.)
    Note that, with some networks (for example, Vodafone in some? all? countries) there’s no EDGE at all. There, you either use 3G or GPRS. The latter rules out all stations with speeds over 40 kbps. If this is the case, you will most probably have to rely on HE-AACv2 (also known as AAC+) streams, should you want good audio quality and stereo sound. The other formats, MP3, AAC-LC (the two formats natively supported by the built-in QuickTime player) and WMA are completely unable to deliver good, stereo audio quality under 40 kbps; OGG is able, but around 36-38 kbps, which may result in stuttering over lower-quality GPRS connections or congested network.
    You can find a lot of AAC+ streams at http://dir.xiph.org/by_format/AAC+ and http://yp.shoutcast.com/. Note that, with the latter, you will want to click radio stations with AAC+ type (see the last column). Unfortunately, unlike with collecting with MP3 stations only, you will not want to tap the header of the last, “Type” column, to order them to collect all AAC+ stations at the end of the list because it’s not possible to easily jump to the end of this list. (Tapping will only order the stations in a way that the list starts with MP3 ones; that is, stations well above 40 kbps - and the few that broadcast under 40kbps, do so with awful audio quality.)
    Note that moodio.fm (which, as with the former two, stream directories, that is, xiph.org and shoutcast.com, has been introduced in section 1. Built-in capabilities: QuickTime), by default, also uses AAC+. As with the former two stations, in order to play back these AAC+ streams in an AAC+-capable radio player (the built-in QuickTime isn’t one of them) like Pocket Tunes Radio or FStream, you’ll want to copy these links to the clipboard and, then, paste them into a custom, user-defined station in these apps (as long as you don’t find a station of your liking in the built-in station directories of these radio clients). To do so,
    1. in Safari, long-tap the link and, then, select “Copy” from the context menu
    2. Switch to the radio station, go to its dedicated custom station entry dialog (with FStream, Favorites / Edit / Add new webradio at the bottom; with Pocket Tunes, Favorites / Edit / +) and tap the URL field a bit longer after cleaning it entirely (if there’s a http:// in it; with FStream, there isn’t). You’ll see a Paste flag (icon) as in this screenshot
    3. Just tap it; the station URL will be pasted to the field
    4. You can also give your station a name
    (Note that you can also manipulate the favorite list of FStream via Wi-Fi, from a desktop Web browser. It offers a far faster way of adding and deleting favorites.)
    Note that Pocket Tunes Radio also has a built-in Web browser. If you navigate from it to, say, m.moodio.fm or yp.shoutcast.com, you won’t need to do any copy / pasting like explained in the previous section. FStream (my other pick for HE-AACv2 playback) doesn’t have a Web browser. Note that several other (except for ooTunes, not that recommended) players also have a built-in browsers. You can do exactly the same in all of them except for eingrad’s RadioBOX, which, currently, has bugs in its Web browser: when you tap a link, the playback (if the built-in QuickTime is compatible with it) will start in QuickTime and not in the built-in player. (The developers stated they would fix this bug some time.)

  • Downloading radio app on iphone 4s

    Pls help j cant listen to radio on iphone  tried downloading iheart app using safari but says could not be completed. J just want to listen to all local radios or simply listen to radio is it a science fiction:(.... Pls if somebody has info help

    Googling  "iheart" on either phone or computer gets me to a page with a "Get the App" button. The computer takes me straight to the app page in iTunes, the mobile page on the iPhone won't play, but I guess that might be because I'm in the UK.

  • When is the new docking station going to come out for the new iPod touch with the lightning connection?

    I have just got the new iPod Touch for christmas. I am now wondering when a docking station will come out for the new iPod Touch with the new lightning connection. I have not been able to find a docking station that fits the iPod Touch without having to buy the adapter(the adapter does not allow the iPod to be charged)
    When will a docking station come out for the new iPod Touch?
    Olivia Davey

    You would have to ask the makers of the docking stations that question. Belkin has a dock now that uses Apple's Lightning cable:
    http://www.belkin.com/us/F8J057-Belkin/p/P-F8J057
    so all it basically does is provide a stand and pass through the headphone jack. There's at least one other dock here:
    http://www.thelightningdock.com/products/iphone-5-dock
    If you're referring to Apple's Universal Dock, there have been no indications that they will make any new dock, though of course none of us here know their plans for future products.

  • IPod freezes when playing from a docking station...Any ideas about a fix?

    I have had my current iPod for a couple of years now, and until recently it has worked flawlessly. Over the past couple of months a problem has develoed when I play my iPod from a docking station. When I play the iPod from it's cradle (connected to my HK Soundsticks) or from my JBL Speaker Base, the iPod plays fine for the first few songs. After a few songs, the iPod stops in the middle of song and skips to the next song, then skips three of four times without playing at all and utltimately locks up completely. The problem seems to arise when I am simultaneously playing and charging.
    Any ideas?
    I am using a 40mb, clickwheel, iPod.

    All I can suggest is to re-encode the video as m4v with QT Pro, there might've been a problem in encoding. Also, try sending this same video (setting TV Out to Yes) with the iPod not plugged into the dock and with an Apple RCA cable, if you have one, hooked up to a TV. If that works, the dock connector might be damaged (unlikely) but it's possible. So once you've re-encoded, see if the dock situation works then. Good luck.

  • How do you play the radio with an iPod and the docking station model RDP-M5iP

    I purchased an iPod docking station model RDP-M5iP and I cannot play the radio.  It says to plug in the headphones for radio reception but that does nothing.  Is there any way to use the radio portion of the iPod with this model?

    Hello Roger,
    Welcome to Sony Community.
    This Personal Audio Docking System does not have built in radio and it seems you are playing radio from the connected iPod and wish to get the audio from Docking System Speakers. You may try checking the radio reception in the iPod. Also, you may try to playback music in the iPod and check if audio is output from the Docking System Speakers.

  • Taking iPhone out of docking station disconnects PC from WLAN?

    That's it in a nutshell.
    Details: iPhone is connected to PC (Vista) via docking station and USB. Taking the iPhone out of the docking station intermittently causes a disconnect of the PC from the WLAN both were using. iPhone remains connected to WLAN router. Cannot re-connect PC to WLAN using software. PC needs to be re-booted. WLAN connector on PC is a Netgear USB stick.
    Might the cause be a conflict between the two USB connections (dock vs. WLAN stick)?

    Apple can't do anything about it. They are not a law enforcement agency.

  • ProBook 650 G1 freezes when taken off of docking station

    Have a ProBook 650 g1 when removing it from the docking station the laptop hangs, We have tried multiple docking stations this happens with all docking stations

    Thank you for your reply.  I'll give you a bit more detail.  I have two docking stations.  One was purchased for this laptop and the other one, the one I asked you about, is the one I used with my prior HP laptop.  My goal is to be able to use both docking stations at different locations. Regarding your reply, you mentioned that you are not sure if the laptop should be used with a 90w docking station, however the one my company purchased for use with this laptop is 90w.  It is product: A7E32AA and it says HP 90W Dock Station Pum1.0. That's why I asked the question.  They both appear to be 90W dock stations.  I don't know why the  VBO43AA isn't listed as a compatible dock station.  Can you think of any other reason I shouldn't use the  VBO43AA with the HP Probook 650 G1?

  • My new ipod only lasts 2 hrs. when connected to my docking station ?

    My new 7th. generation ipod only plays for 2 hrs. when docked to my docking station.Will Apple bring out a new docking station to overcome this as I only ever play tunes using the dock.

    What is the make and model of your docking station? Shouldn't it be charging the iPod?  How is it connected? With the appropriate dock connector and lightning to 30 pin connector or via a line-in port?

  • Low power error when W530 connects to dock station 433815U

    Hi,
    Just got W530 2447 and dock station 433815U. From Lenovo website, 433815U should support W530. I got error message said power voltage is lower than laptop needs when I connect W530 to 433815U with dock station adaptor(90W).  Any BIOS configuration or drive I need to configure or install to be able to 433815U?
    One thing I also wanted to mention is I tried combination W530, 433815U with W530 adaptor(170W), it works.
    Thanks

    you mean you are getting error when using the 90 watts adapter with the dock? If that is the case, there is nothing you can do, other than to use the 135 watts or 170 watts adapter.
    Otherwise, you have a modified power cable, which is not a Lenovo recommended accessories.

  • What's going to be the best way to sync/delete apps when iPhone arrives?

    I'm getting my iPhone 4 delivered, so I'll have to use iTunes to activate it and then sync it myself. Hopefully everything will go alright. I'm more concerned about picking and choosing which apps I load onto my new iPhone before it automatically starts syncing. I don't want to load in some apps that might not be compatible with iPhone 4, plus I just don't want to clutter it up right away. I'm kind of thinking iTunes is going to ask me if I want to use my last iPhone backup to set up the new iphone, rather than let me pick and choose what to load?

    On using the old phone as an iPod Touch:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3406
    iTunes supports syncing multiple devices no problem--after it's all set up, when you plug it in, iTunes will remember which playlists and apps you like to sync to the old phone and to the new phone.
    I'd leave the old phone just as it is (other than plugging it in to back it up) until you've got the new phone up and running as you like it.
    I haven't done this, but I'm 100% sure it will be possible to NOT load your old phone settings on the new phone. If you are really worried, you can dig into the MobileSync folder (user/library/application support/mobilesync) and move the backup to somewhere else so iTunes can't find it and use it.

  • High pitch feedback when connecting to Bose Docking Station

    I noticed that my Classic 160 GB emits a faint high pitch shrill, but when I dock it with the Bose station, the high pitch shrill gets much louder. I have contacted Bose but I have yet to figure out how to contact IPOD. Can anyone tell me how to contact IPOD about this problem?

    It does the high pitch feedback all the time or just when you dock it to the Bose?
