Zeppelin Air with Lightning Dock?

Does anyone know whether B&W will produce a new Zeppelin Air with a Lightning dock?
I really don't want to buy the current Zeppelin Air and have to use the Apple Lightning adapter which wouldn't look good, especially as it's white.

I asked Bowers and Wilkins. They said that they have plans to release a new Zeppelin Air with the lightning dock but they are still in the stages of making a plan and do not know when it will be released yet.

  • Anybody else having problem with iPOD TOUCH ios4.3.3. deleting the special speakers menu on the Zeppelin Air ?

    The latest ios firmware update for the iPOD TOUCH (4.3.3.) has accidently removed the special speakers menu from the B&W Zeppelin Air.
    How can this problem be reported to Apple to fix it ??????????????????

    I recently purchased an infiniti FX35 with the ipod integration. After visiting the local apple store "Genius Bar" and speaking on the phone with an "apple expert"; neither the genius bar or the apple expert heard of such an integration option in new cars being sold. They wanted more information from me about how it work rather than them assisting me with my problem.
    Anyway, after alot of experimenting I got my ipod touch 2G running firmware 3.1 to work somewhat consistently.
    Turn off wi-fi on the touch, power off then back on, go the ipod menu and select playlist. Attach the touch to the infiniti supplied cable through the dock connector. Select the ipod option from dash board. Playlist, songs, artists, etc will appear on the dash display and begin playing.

  • Error message "The currently attached accessory is not supported by this iPod" is shown when connected to my Zeppelin Air Dock.

    I have 2 iPods, one is a 60GB Classic formatted to Mac the other is a 80GB Classic formatted to Windows. When either is connected to my Zeppelin Air Dock, a message appears on the iPod saying "The currently attached accessory is not supported by this iPod"
    I have updated the firmware on the Zeppelin and have the latest updates on each of the iPods.
    The Zeppelin works fine and connects to the computer and laptop without issues.

    I'm having the same problem, it just started today. I've been running w/ the nike+ sensor and receive w/ my iPod nano for 6 months, logging 75 runs, so don't understand why I'm getting this error now.
    Can someone please reply w/ how to resolve this issue? I have Nike+ challenges coming up soon that I can't miss. Thanks!

  • Is there a way to adapt an older ipod with 30-pin to a new dock with lightning connector?

    Is there a way to adapt an older ipod with 30-pin to a new dock with lightning connector?

    The Apple on-line store has two 30-pin to lightning adapters, but they are the wrong direction from what you want.  Try a Google search, or drop in an Apple retail store and see if they have what you need.

  • Lightning docks and what cases works with them!

    Being racking my brain for couple weeks now and trying to find info and get hope from people on various mac forums but to no avail, so thought I would ask on here
    I currently have an old 30 pin connector dock with the lightning adaptor on it so I can play my iphone 5 on it, now as you probably know, when the iphone 5 is docked , if it had no case on it whatsoever it will not reach because it seems the connector is too small which IMO is a massive oversight
    So to solve it I bought the speck flip case which if you haven't seen it flips up at the bottom so it docks easily.
    Is there anything anyone  recommend? I really fancy one of the new iPhone 5s cases to fit my iPhone 5 but as I have seen if I want to dock it I have to remove the case which is a real pain!
    I'm also looking at a new lightning dock, is there one anyone recommend? Can you get one where the lightning adaptor on the dock itself is a bit longer so it docks with a case on? Or am I going to have to resign that no case, mostly notably the 5s case docks with the case on?

    You should be able to 'see' the BlackBerry memory in the Meida Manager, and you can transfer small files to the Content Store on the BlackBerry using the Media Manager. Just remember that you are using the base memory on the BlackBerry for media files and you shouldn't get too crazy with files transferred to it. 
    Try installing v4.2 Service Pack 2 and using the Media Manager and seeing if the BlackBerry device memory option shows up at the bottom of the screen. When you open the memory you should see some file folders and you should store the files directly into the file folder appropriate to the media, and not use folders inside the original folder so the BB will 'see' the files when you use your Profile options to select ringtones or background photos.

  • Zeppelin Air Toruble with my iPhone 4

    Basically when I connect my iPhone 4 (4.3.1) to AirPlay and try to adjust the volume using the buttons on the unit or the zeppelin remote it becomes really glitchy e.g. I have hit volume up and the volume decides to go down vice versa.
    I had this trouble with my 1st Zeppelin and returned it for a replacement. On getting my second zeppelin I tried it without updating the stereo's firmware and everything was fine, so I updated the firmware again and the problem arose again.
    I was wondering if anyone with the same setup as me (Zeppelin Air and iPhone 4 (4.3.1) could check if they have the same issue, hopefully from this information I will be able to determine if it's my phone software (my Dad's 3GS (4.3.1) works perfectly fine) or if it's the latest Zeppelin firmware causing the bug with my phone.
    Thanks in advance

    I've had a client experience what you're describing. He has both iPhone 3GS and 4. He doesn't know what phone he was using at the time (not conscistent like yours), sorry. I'm figuring it's a issue with the Zeppelin, but that's a hunch at best. And if you've managed to isolate it on you're iPhone 4, then who knows... Can't say what firmware version he's on (on the zeppelin) but he got it in the beginning of april and have definitly not upgraded it. Don't know about the version on his iPhone 4 either...
    I've got one of these as well but havn't had that perticular problem. Have had to restart mine (zeppelin) on several occations because it disconnects and stays that way from the WiFi (Airport Extreme).
    I have mostly used it with Airfoil, but a fair bit on my two iPhone 4s (with 4.3.1 and .2) as well and it's worked fine.
    This is my details of the Zeppelin Air.
    AirPlay Firmware:
    2.1.68.8327
    Host Firmware:
    1.00.00
    BTW, are you using ethernet or WiFi?
    I'll try updating my zeppelin if there's a new version that you're using. If I run into problems I will post them here.
    Regards

  • My iPhone 4S will not play music out loud. I can't turn sound up or down, it doesn't even give me the option.  I think that it thinks its docked, I've tried to blow air in it, I've tried compressed air with no luck.

    Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if fixed. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean again, very well with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

  • Update itunes 10.6.1.7 - Zeppelin Air issues

    Good morning all,
    Wondering if somebody else also is occuring this in order to get it through with Apple.
    A few days ago I updates my itunes version to 10.6.1.7. After the update, I have a lot of lag on my airplay, especially to a B&W zeppelin air device. It looks like iTunes is continuously shifting between the computer's speaker output and the zeppelin's output although both are selected.
    This only seems to be from my pc to the zeppelin device. Using my iphone to airplay to the zeppelin works fine.
    Information about the PC, LAN, Zeppelin:
    * Windows 7 x64 fully updated, Quadcore 2.83Ghz, 4GB RAM (of which plenty is available), iTunes 10.6.1.7 x64 version
    * 1 Gbps LAN network, minimal usage
    * Zeppelin is up to the latest firmware version 1.3.1_01 and is connected wireless (n) to the LAN
    - Other devices on the network  don't expirience lagging so the problem seems solely located to iTunes.
    - upnp  using the same pc to a remote device also works fine ruling out pc issues.
    - reinstallation of iTunes didn't solve the issues as well.
    I'm trying to find a older version from iTunes 10.5.x to see if that resolves the issues but so far I haven't found a downloadable installer yet.
    Cheers,
    Kristof

    Experimental advice. But it might be worth checking to see if there's a LSP issue in play here, as per the following document:

  • Connecting ipod classic to lightning dock

    Just bought a new ipod classic and ipod dock.  The dock has a lightning connection - is there an adaptor that can enable connection?

    Hi Roberto UK,
    The majority of us at the discussions forums don't know about Apple's future products until they officially reveal or release them.
    Sadly, at this moment in time, Apple hasn't made an adapter to connect 30 pin devices (like the iPod Classic) to a lightning dock. There are, however, some adaptors that do what you want them to, though reading the Amazon reviews for them, they are nowhere near the quality of an Apple or Apple certified adapter.
    Now, you have a few choices;
    You could buy a new HiFi with a lightning connector and use a 3.5mm aux-aux cable (both ends are like that of a headphone cable);
    You could look for a new HiFi with a 30 pin dock that some companies still produce;
    Buy a new HiFi with a lightning dock and try your luck with a third-party adapter which could work, but you should have a cable like the one mentioned in choice 1 as a backup, should the adapter stop working for any reason.
    I would personally recommend you buy a HiFi with a lightning port over a 30 pin one since, if you buy a new Apple handheld product in the near future, it will most probably have a lightning port, therefore you don't want to have to shell out £25 for a 30 pin-to-lightning adapter for (all of) your HiFis.
    Good Luck,
    Stefan

  • Ipad Air, org. lightning Adapter, Philips DS8550 --- No charging

    Hello,
    i have a philips ds8550 Soundsystem. It works well with all Apple Devices with 1. gen. Connector. Iphone 5 with lightning Adapter works also well (Charging and sound). But there is no charging with Ipad Air. Is this the sentence of death for a expensive 4 year old soundsystem?
    thank you
    joe

    I don't think it's unheard of. Charging issues can be things with the adapter, or with the cable.

  • 1st gen Apple tv and Zeppelin air

    Hi, would my 1st gen Apple tv stream via AirPlay to a Zeppelin air? Thanks

    In theory I would expect it to do so, but I would check with B&W if it behaves to all intents and purposes as an Airport Express does for Airtunes.
    Hopefully someone with the combination will confirm.
