Using with alarm clocks..(ie iLuv, etc)

Hello,
I juss bought an alarm clock for my iPod shuffle, I was wondering if I used the ipod for the clock and left it playing overnight(sleep) and as an alarm(music) itself in the morning, would my battery die out faster?
help would be much appreciated..

Could you be a bit...ummm... more detailed?
ok, i try..
the alarm clock I'm using is iLuv i177..it has a usb port on it, where I can plug in my shuffle.
It can play while I put it on sleep mode(that would mean I would leave the shuffle on while it is in the usb),
and when it is a beautiful morning, I can wake up listening to my favorite trance.
I'm not familiar with how the clock works, but I'm assuming that the shuffle will be on all night and will be hooked up to the usb on the clock at the same time..
So, I'm guessing the battery would be charging overnite and wondering if its life will be shorter?

  • Trouble with Alarm Clock app

    anyone out there use the Alarm Clock app? it looks great its easy to set up but mine didn't go off this morning (good job i had a back up!)
    it says to set the alarm and leave it running in the background i did this but nada - nothing
    anyone else have this problem and did you find a solution please?
    thanks!

    Are you referring to the built in clock app that comes on the phone, or a 3rd party app from the app store?  I've had mixed results with anything other than the inbuilt clock app when it comes to alarms.

  • Issues with Alarm Clock and Calendar Notifications

    I have noticed that when I am using the Alarm clock, it will not go off when the calendar is showing a meeting reminder....
    Is there any way to dis-activate this? My alarm clock will not work.. and there are too many appts in my calendar to go thru them to change...

    I also have the same issue. If the alarm is set and the calendar sends a notification just prior to the alarm time, the calendar notification prevents the alarm from going off. I understand it is a bug, but when will it be fixed? What is the bug ID? how do we track known bugs so we know they are being fixed? The problem is with the iPhone's included clock and calendar apps, so it is not a 3rd Party application issue, right? Thanks!

  • Using the alarm clock

    I'm having trouble figuring out how to use the Alarm Clock feature on my iPod. If I set the alarm for a time that's only a minute or two in the future, it seems to work just fine. However, if I set it for ten minutes (or more) in the future, then just set it down, the iPod times out and shuts off after a few minutes of non-use. Then, when the alarm time comes around, nothing happens.
    Is the alarm clock supposed to be able to "turn on" the iPod when it is off? If so, why wouldn't it be doing it? If not, how do I prevent my iPod from turning off, so that the alarm will work?

    Go to Extras > Clock > Sleep timer.
    Try setting it to off.

    You can set times for your computer to turn on or wake from sleep in the Energy Saver system preference pane using the Schedule... button.

  • Problems with 'Alarm Clock'

    Good day.
    I use my Ipod as Alarm Clock - it's pretty good to wake up while listening to the favourite music. I made it to start playing playlist without beeping.
    I don't know why, but sometimes (after watching video, listening to the music before I go to bed) my alarm clock doesn't work correctly: when it's time to wake up, it just shows a message *wake up* as usually, but without playing music, so I'm being late for some times already...
    Please, tell me what to do, how to fix this problem, 'cause I hate ordinary beeping alarm clocks.
    P.S.: Sorry, if my english isn't very good.

    Pick a sound, song, etc. for the alarm and make sure it is not the default one.

  • Docking/Using as alarm clock

    Hi all,
    This is my first post here so I apologise if I seem a bit simple - I've only had my iPhone 3G 8 days.
    I'm looking for a number of accessories for my iPhone. I have the case and the car adaptor sorted but would like a dock.
    What I need in my dock -
    - Good looks
    - Good sound Quality
    - An alarm clock (hopefully which can use any of the tunes on my iPhone for the alarm)
    - Is compatible with the iPhone 3G (no airplane mode or incompatibilites leading to no charging)
    - Generally quite easy to use but not too simple either (much like the iPhone not a simple system but very easy to use)
    All your recommendations welcome,
    Thanks

    Posted below is the link to all the audio dock speaker sets that work with iPhone 3G

    As far for as which are easy to use and get the most done. Not anyone I can really recommend. It depends on the budget you have set. And what features you are looking for in the long run. Most if not all of them seem to charge the iPhone while it is docked.
    There are a couple Alarm clock based stations listed below that I found.

  • Battery Drain With Alarm Clock Function

    This just started happening to me last week.  I have 4 alarms set during the week days...in case I hit the 'Dismiss' button by accident. These alarms have been set since I got my phone in October. Well, last week I noticed that after the 4th alarm had gone off, my battery had gone down to 48% while still plugged into the charger.  This phone is usually on the charger all night with no problems and at 100% by the time I leave for work...until now.  Any ideas why this might be?
    I currently am recreating the issue by setting my alarms for PM and seeing if there're any changes.
    Thanks!

    I set the alarm clocks for PM.....but of course it didn't do anything abnormal. So I set them again for the AM. The next morning, my alarms went off as usual, and the battery stayed fully charged. So I am at a loss as to what was going on previously.  My only conclusion is perhaps the mini USB was not completely inside the port ????  If anything new happens I'll be sure to post.  So far the past two mornings have gone without a hitch.  Go figure!

  • Nano problems with Alarm clocks(lik e Luna or others)

    I have a new nano 4gb, and an Xtrememac Luna... My old ipod 2nd gen worked perfecly, the new nano has problems instead.. When my alarm function lit the ipod, it does not play the song, but remain in pause... The nano wakes up, but old nano started to play the song, this stands in pause. Why this? Can I hope in a fix or something? many people have this problem...
    Possible solutions?
    thanks in advance

    Since there was no reply from Apple so far I called their service today.
    The claimed that this problem was not known with the devices which they are selling and that they can't tell about 3rd party alarm clocks.
    Big news! Who would have thought of that answer?
    Well I then called the manufacturer of my alarm clock which is called "auvisio", one of these cheap copies. They knew about the problem with the nano 3G on thier device and said that they can't offer a solution so far. They offered RMA which I would say is quite nice of them but it doesn't help me much with my wake-up-problem in the morning.
    I already settled with the thought that I would have to buy the more expensive Apple stuff but as I read above even Bose seems to have the problem. Complete confusion.
    Hopefully firmware 1.0.3 will be released soon and can finally solve these problems. Release 1.0.2 definitely was a step into the opposite direction...

  • Nano 4g will suddenly not work with alarm clock. What happened?

    As of the last time I synced it, my iPod nano 4g will not work with an alarm clock. What happened? It doesn't work with mine or with my roommate's, and her iPod will work with my clock. My iPod will PLAY in the clock dock if I turn it on and hit play, but won't wake up and play anymore as an alarm. I tried setting the alarm on the iPod instead of on the alarm clock, and that doesn't work as a fix (it won't make the clock wake up). ARGH.

    Yeah, mine won't work. Just started acting up this week.
    It doesn't work at all. I can set the alarm for any time, and it simply doesn't go off. I got a replacement phone of the same LG Accolade model, and it doesn't work either.
    I switched the clock display settings, thinking there might be a glitch there. Didn't work when I changed it, or when I put it back to my original settings.
    Agh!
    Hi Robert116,
    Please ensure that you have software version VX560V04 installed on your phone. For instructions to view software version please visit this LINK.
    If you do have the correct software version a LG Accolade VX5600 - Master Reset may resolve the alarm clock issues outlined on your post. A master reset will resolve issues if any of your phone's system files became corrupted.
    Please keep in mind that a master reset will erase all data and restore preferences to factory default specifications. Performing a hard reset is only recommended when the existing data has been backed up or is unwanted. Please backup your information before you do a master reset.

  • Alarm Clock, Calculator icon, etc.

    I was having problems with my Treo 650, so the Sprint service center did a hard reset. Now I am missing all kinds of icons on my phone. How do I get them back. For example, I don't have my alarm clock icon and my calculator icon. They have ordered a replacement phone, but I need the alarm clock and calculator now. Thanks.

    Thanks so much. It worked!
    I didn't notice that it said "System". I guess it always said "All", so I never noticed the other selections.
    I have had my Treo 650 for over 4 years. I took it in because my text messaging isn't working, and they did a hard reset. They have ordered a new phone for me, because they can't fix it.
    Thanks again!

  • Issues with Alarm Clock after DST switch

    Since ages now my iPhone's alarm clock is setting off at 6am...Since ages? Yep! True! But, actually: BUT not any more since the DST switch last weekend.
    Since then it sets off one hour late!!!
    And this without having changed anything in the definition of the alarm!
    And this with the phone's time displaying the right (winter) time!

    This is an acknowledged bug on iOS4.1 (at least according to an article on the Guardian). It was found about 3 weeks ago in Australia and NZ where DST change happened then. It only affects recurring alarms (one-off alarms are working fine). I have to do some research but it looks that also affected some calendar appointments set on time zones different than mine. The recommended action is to set up one-off alarms only but I find better to set my recurring alarms one hour early until a patch is issued by Apple.

  • Using the Alarm clock -- does the ipod need to be on the charger?

    Does the ipod (touch 4g) have to be on the charger in order for the alarm clock to work?
    Or does the ipod "awake" from the off position and sound the alarm?

    The alarm will work if the iPod is asleep (screen goes black automatically after set period of inactivity or you momentarily press the power button and you have to slide to unlock). However, if you power it off (hold power until power off slider appears and you slide it) it will not alarm.

  • Concerned about screen burn in with alarm clock app

    I recently downloaded Night Stand HD, then it occurred to me that the clock display would remain on all night. The auto-lock feature needs to be disabled for the alarm to work. Do I need to be concerned about screen burn with the iPad display? I know the latest LCD displays are not susceptible to it, but I want to be sure before I start using it. The app has a dimming feature, but I'm not sure if that is enough protection.
    Thanks

    Only CRTs and Plasma screens are subject to burn in. The iPad won't.
