Why wont my iphone 4 to work with stereo dock

I recently got the new iphone 4 (I had the iphone 3 previously) and now I am finding that it does not seem to be compatible with some of my stereo accessories that worked just fine with the iphone 3. I have the Sony am/fm ipod stereo docking station and it will not work on that (nothing happens when I dock it, no sound or charge, nothing), nor will it work with the adaptor I have for my stereo system. Is there a setting on the phone that may resolve some of these issues or will I need to get new accessories? All this being said, the phone is working just fine with my car stereo adaptor, so I would think any settings (volume, etc) that would affect it's sound output would affect that as well........ also, the phone works just fine with all my chargers and usb cords too..........Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I am experiencing great frustration not being able to listen to my music on my new fancy phone!!!!!!! Thanks

at some point forget when
apple removed support for some firewire things in their pin30 connector which caused some older
accessories to stop working sounds like that could be what you're expeierncing

  • Why wont my imac 27'' not work with the Belkin AV360?

    Recently bought a Imac 27'' a couple of months ago. Thought I would buy a Belkin AV360 converter to play my PS3 and XBOX through onto my Imac. Plugged it all in and it doesnt work. apparently you have to press Commmand and F2 at the same time to turn the screen onto the ps3 but that doesnt work. Does this belking ocnverter only work with older models of the Imac?

  • IPhone 4 not working with Sony docking station

    Hi guys,
    My iPhone 4 is no longer working with my Sony SRS-GU10 docking station. It connects with the docking station and charges, but there is no sound.
    I've tried to reset my iPhone, but that didn't work. I've turned off the bluetooth and that didn't help. I blew into the iPhone connector and the docking station and got it working for 10mins. It's just strange how it's just stopped working! Just wondering if it's knackered or can be fixed???
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Jen

    Try the solution in the post at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3228386?start=0&tstart=0, it worked for me.

  • IPhone does not work with IPOD Dock to select next song / pause - play

    After using the iPhone at the gym, the IPhone quit working using the remote for the Docking station to navigate to next song nor pause / play. Suspect Iphone connector....
    Also the iMuffs Headset bluetooth adapter that plugged into the iphone connector quit working. Tested iMuffs bluetooth connector on another iPhone and is still functioning.
    any ideas?? clean connector?? short?? service??
    Note, the iPhone still syncs with iMac via docking port (USB). So the connector is not totally bad.

    Have you tried a reset...and if that doesn't work ..a restore? Back up your phone before you restore.

  • Why my unlocked iPhone is not working with SIM card bought in Europe (it shows SIM card l

    I bought unlocked iPhone in Apple store in US with a thought that I could also use it when travelling to Europe. I've bought SIM card there, place it in my iPhone, but It's not working. Still it shows that card is locked for some reason. What can I do to solve this problem?

    Which Carrier's  sim exactly did you buy and in which Country ?
    You are sure you purchased an unlocked rather than Sim free iPhone ??

  • Why wont Orbit Downloader 4.1 work with FireFox 6

    Ever since I upgraded to version 6 the Orbit down loader will not recognize firefox. Usually the download window has a checkoff for the Orbit down loader. This no longer happens. Any fixes?

    You can force Orbit Downloader to work using [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ Addon Compatibility Reporter]. Note that this could cause problems, though.

  • Why wont my iphone's internet work without wifi?

    two days ago I restored my phone with itunes backup and now I can't use my internet without wifi. my cellular data is on, i have unlimited data,and i took it to the store and they didn't give me any help. any advice on what i can do to fix this?

    i first took it to the cricket store (my cell phone carrier) and they said they only cover talk and text since my phone is flashed over. so i took it to the store i flashed it at and they said the ios7 update prevents them from fixing any problems (which made no sense to me) i have full bars in some places usually 3g next to it but some times i have low bars with 1x next to it

  • IPhone doesn't work with Universal Dock remote?

    Hello,
    I received an Apple Universal Dock with remote for Christmas, and I'm pretty sure I remember it and the remote working just fine with my iPhone when I first set it up. Today, I tried using it again, and found that I can't use the Universal Dock's remote for anything other than controlling the volume, and even though I can raise or lower the volume with the remote, the volume change is not reflected on my iPhone's screen - the iPhone's ipod volume indicator doesn't move.
    The Universal Dock and remote work just fine with my wife's second generation nano, and the iPhone works without any problems when docked into a Logitech mm50 speaker system - the mm50's remote is able to jump forward and backwards through songs, pause, play, etc. The problem seems limited to the combination of my iPhone and the Universal Dock and remote.
    Is this normal? According to the Universal Dock's package and documentation, it is compatible with the iPhone and doesn't mention anything about the remote having limited capabilities when used with the iPhone.
    If this isn't normal, does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
    thanks in advance and best regards,
    tom

    i just bought this dock as a car dock. I have it hooked up to power 12v and output to 1/8 into head unit. Now, I have to be in iTunes music to get it to work and it only allows volume, playing of files in a playlist and to next song. Are any of you guys having issues with VERY limited use of the remote and lack of really a benefit from using a remote because you have to touch it anyways to change through songs or video??? Are you guys wondering why you even bought it if the remote is not supported as a functional addition?

  • HT1222 Hello,after the last apdate iOS 7.1.1 my iphone has stop work with the bose dock station. why it is happens?

    Hello,after the last apdate iOS 7.1.1 my iphone has stop work with the bose dock station. why it is happens?

    Natan turbo hadar,
    I have the same exact problem.
    I put an iPod shuffle on the Bose system, it plays just fine.
    My iPhone 4s works just fine connected to my car stereo.
    My iPhone 4s on the Bose will charge, it "thinks" it's playing, song shows, time line shows it's playing, can pause if I touch the phone's screen.
    The remote for the Bose WILL NOT pause it, forward to next song, etc. It does work with the iPod shuffle.
    So it's not the Bose, it's not connections, it's the iOS 7.1.1
    Everything worked fine before, any one else have suggestions?

  • IPhone 4 stop working with ios 6.1

    iPhone 4 stopped working with ios 6.1, visited apple first time, restored phone and worked, less than 24 hours later stopped working again, back to the store, I told iPhone is out of warranty and they'll replace for $150. iPhone worked fine with previous version, no problem at all. Asked to restore to the previous software version, told can't be done. Why should I pay for a damage caused by a software update. Tec claims that ios 6.1 will not work with my phone because it discovered some hardware malfunction, possible the home button. They can't repair. suggested to go to a third party. I'm a satisfied Apple product user for many years. What happened? Any welp out there?

    Hey.. I have had this issue since yesterday afternoon.. Some people are saying to keep restoring again and again until it finally goes through.. I have done so like 10 times on my MAC and then I used my husband's PC and tried it 4 times.. No success.. I called apple support, but no help came from there at the end, and the only thing they were able to suggest to me is to sell me a new phone just like mine for a discounted price.. **** NO
    Anyways after about 18h of search and stress I came across this link:
    http://techglobex.blogspot.com/2012/06/downgrade-from-ios-6-beta-firmware-to.htm l
    That will only make it possibe to go backward.. You will end up back with the IOS 5, but at least you will have a working phone and it will bring back all your contacts and everything else that you ever had backed up on icloud and on your computer. There might be descripencies with the Applications but again this is an issue easily solved, you can always download them back.
    Two more things: One, you do not have to download the old version of the itunes, the newest version worked for me without any issues
    When choosing to download the older IOS 5.1.1, you will need to figure out whether your carrier is GSM or CDMA but you can easily google this info online..
    Well hope that will work for you like it did for me

  • Why Model MD297AE/A is not working with Fcae time and Model MD293C/A is working in UAE with Facetime

    Why Model MD297AE/A is not working with Fcae time and Model MD293C/A is working in UAE with Facetime.
    In fact I have given my iPhone to my daughter to use in Canada (purchased from UAE ISP) she is unable to use Face Time within Canada. ?
    Is it possibile to activate FaceTime in Canada if iPhone is purchase from UAE.
    Purchase under Points by ISP (No contract)
    Thanks
    Abbas

    Hello sir
           I agree what u replied for the above question, but because of the UAE request, you cannot deactivate the facetime completely from this iphone, they should stop working through SIM network. The iphone is a universal mobile which can travel all over the world, many tourist people will suffer due to that, pls re-consider in taking back and try to make it upgrading this software.
    Thanks
