Would the Apple Universal Dock work with any cables?

Does anybody know if the Apple Universal Dock works with any A/V composite cables for video out from the iPhone or the Nano 3rd gen., or do I have to buy the Apple $50 cables too?

I have a U2 iPod, and I can connect it to the TV with regular composite (RCA) splitter cables getting video and audio out.... I tried and now I know that I can't use the same cables to get video out of the iPhone or the 3 gen Nano, but I thought that using the Apple Universal Dock I could. So you are saying that even using the Dock I need the 30 pin to get video out?

Availability of the Apple Universal Dock & Composite A/V Cable

Does anyone know if the Apple Universal Dock & Composite A/V Cable for the Touch are in Apple Stores? My daughter purchased what the sales person said were the correct accessories as a surprise b'day gift from the Apple NY Soho store and they sold her the iPod Universal Dock and a Monster Composite (RCA) Audio cable. Wrong! Apparently the sales person did not know what they were doing. When looking at the Apple Online Store it states that they take 3-4 weeks for delivery. BTW, I am waiting for my Touch which is enroute.

Thank you for the response, but Apple's own support site states otherwise. The iPod Universal Dock uses an S-Video out. The Apple Universal Dock requires the use of the Composite or Component A/V Cable. The Apple site specifies that the iPod Universal is not compatible. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300233
Were you actually able to send your Touch video to your TV via the iPod Universal Dock? If so, I'll give it a shot before returning it.

Does the iPod Universal Dock work with the Apple Component AV Cable?

I have the iPod Universal Dock (MA045G/A) and the Apple Component AV Cable (MB128LL/B)...the ones in the original black packaging.
I had wanted to connect either my Nano 3G or my iTouch 1G to my TV, but neither would work through the docking station with the AV cable. Both did work when I tried not using the dock and connected both the Nano and the iTouch directly into the AV Cable.
My dock works great on my Computer, and I tried a second dock (same model) that I had into the TV with the AV cable and it still did not see the connection.
Is my particular iPod Universal Dock NOT COMPATIBLE with this Apple Component AV Cable (or for that matter, the Composite AV Cable-MB129LL/B)?
It's not a big deal since both do work with the AV cable by itself...it's just annoying I can't use the dock...

Are you sure it is genuine Apple cable? If you bought it on eBay or non-authorized Apple dealer it probably isn't. If it is a genuine cable, it is defective, and should be returned.
When a working genuine Apple A/V cable is plugged into iPhone, a popup appears asking if you want to enable the TV output. Since you are not getting this popup, your cable is bad.

Apple Universal Dock works with iPod Touch 3G right?

I didn't see it in the "works with" section.
They did have iPod Touch 2G though.
So will it work for the new Touch?

I got the 3 Gen iPod Touch and the Universal dock,I can use the dock to sycn my iPod touch with my macbook pro,so I believe the Universal dock can't work perfectly with iPod touch 3G.

Can the Apple Universal dock & remote work with the iPod nano 7th generation? Especially to connect to a powered speaker in my home stereo system?

If I get the Apple Universal Dock , what cable do I then need to get video from the dock to my HDTV . What about audio ?

If I get the Apple Universal Dock , what cable do I then need to get video to my HDTV ? What about the audio portion ?

OK, so that part is correct. Then, do I just hookup and it automatically goes onto my computer? What will capture it, or will it simply show on my desktop and I need to open it with...what?

Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?

Thanks!

It should. First, turn on BlueTooth on the computer. In BT preferences be sure to check the option to look for all devices. Your remote should be picked up and a notice asking if you want to Pair it with the computer. Select Yes. Once it is paired it can be used to control your computer.

I had an ipod touch 4th gen and used the apple universal dock to play music through my stereo. I just got a 5th generation and a lightning adapter but the adapter does not fit the universal dock. Apple tech support has no solution, does anyone?

That is the adapter I purchased from Apple which does not fit in the Apple Universal cradle (which apparently is no longer universal). However, I just created my own solution. The cradle holds the dock connector at a slight angle so the adapter, which has a straight bottom edge, will not slide down far enough to make a connection. Since the adapter has a plastic case, I used my Swiss Army knife to whittle it down to fit. It's a no-tech solution, and free!

I had a Tascam US 122 usb interface, but it didn't work with OSX Mavericks. What model would work with this? Would the US-144 mkii work with my system?

You didn't mention the kind of track in GB you are trying to create, but if you are connecting the keyboard with a guitar chord to the Tascam, you will need to set up a Real Instrument Track in GB to hear anything. If your keyboard has a midi out, use a midi cable to the midi input of the Tascam, create Software Instrument Track, and you will hear something. But with a guitar chord, it won't send the right signal to a Software Instrument Track. The headphone jack in the Tascam monitors the signal coming back to it out of GB (if you choose the US-122 as your monitor in GB's preferences), so you wouldn't hear your keyboard if the track is not set up correctly. It could be the drivers, but since you didn't mention the type of keyboard or the type of GB track, I thought that might be a possible answer as well.

Can the iPod nano fourth generation fit on the apple universal dock?

Hi, I'm looking at purchasing an iPod nano fourth generation used, and I'm reading a lot of things saying that the charger for the iPod touch and iPad does not work with it. Is that a load of garbage and will the universal dock work for it? Thano you

Yes. It can be charged using the same USB dock connector cable and wall adapter.
will the universal dock work for it?
Yes, but it will require the necessary adapter.

Does the Ipod Touch 4G work with any Wireless G Router?

I have a Netgear WGR614 Router(wireless-G). Will the Ipod Touch 4G work with it at all? Please respond. Thank You.

It should work since the 4G supports a, b,g, and n bands. However, some users have reported problems with older routers. I have an older b/g LinkSys router and my 4G iPod and iPad works fine.
Hi IIIaass. If you have problem with older routers, Apple recommends you update the router firmware.

Using the Apple Universal Dock with an old amplifier?

Hi,
Yesterday, I bought the universal dock to hear the music I have on my iPhone on my home stereo, an old amplifier (NAD C320), connecting them with an 3.5mm <-> 2 RCA cable. I hear a little noise every 10 seconds, but there's no music.
I did the same thing with a more recent compact hi-fi (a Sonoro Cubo, with 3 years, that reads cd's with mp3 files), connecting the iPhone using a 3.5mm <-> 3.5mm, and I get the same noise.
What's my mistake? Thanks in advance.
Best regards, Miguel Caldeira Proenca

Hi, Thanks for your help.
I still couldn't find the time to go to the shop and test if there are any problems with the dock, but I already found an interesting answer:
- if I connect the jack coming from the amp directly to the earphone plug (without using the dock), it all works fine; this means that the problem is either related with the dock or the phone plug that connects to the dock (the one that's used to charge the battery); this narrows the problem to two options, so I only need to go to the shop and test another dock.
Thanks a lot for your help, in the beginning I was wondering if I was doing something, your comment was helpful to understand that the problem wasn't me,
Best regards, Miguel

Does the connector in the Universal dock work with the iPhone?

My iPhone now has a thick rubber case making it too big for the iPhone dock.
I have a old iPod universal dock but am not clear if it work with the iPhone. The connector looks similar except that the ends are not quite flush. Will it work?
I don't want to damage a working device.
Patrick

I've used the universal dock with my iPhone, but it isn't all that stable. You can also just connect the dock connector cable directly to the bottom of the phone; you don't have to use a dock.

HT1380 Can the Apple Universal Dock charge the 3rd generation iPod?

At the time it could only be charged with the FireWire charger.
