Does this unit work with the ipod 5th generation. If not what do I need to make it work?

It does with a small converter cable from 30 pin to lightning pin cable. I bought the converter at a big box but you can probably find on amazon as well.

You can purchase a lightning adapter or use the Bluetooth audio feature of your phone and purchase a Coolstream receiver for the Polk.

It does not support the 5th generation ipod or iPhone, only up to the 4th generation, but if you can get the Bluetooth system that comes with it, it will work great

I would imagine it works with all iPods -- the connector is the same, isn't it? It works great for our 80 gig 5.5.

The unit works better with an older iPods with the wide multi-pin connectors than with the new narrow connectors. With the new iPods you have to get a converter (~$25) and some features will not work properly.

it worked with my iPhone 4 and ipad 3 so it should work with your ipod 5th gen if in doubt look up compatibility on this product.

Yes it will work. The Jambox comes with a stereo cable that plugs into the headphone outlet on any iPod. It works with my 5th generation iPod.

I assume your question is: Does it work with an iPod touch first generation? Not familiar with that particular iPod..BUT...it is a 30 pin unit. If the Ipod touch first generation is a 30 pin unit as well...then YES...it will work. If, however, the iPod touch first generation is not a 30 pin unit, you will have to get an adapter AND this unit to make it work.

I only use it with a classic iPod. I believe it listed everything it was compatible with on the listing. I'll dig out the paperwork and let you know.

Don't know for sure. I plug in my Ipod through the headphone jack and it functions like an external speaker. The remote control or even the volume control buttons on the speaker dock will not work with the Ipod. I have to actually make any changes on the Ipod itself. Depending on what you want that might not be enough for you. The dock will work with any device that has a regular size head phone jack. Hope that helps with your decision.

I'm sorry. I don't own an iPod 5 so I can't really tell you if that would work or not. There is a USB connector that comes with it and it does work with an iPod though. I'll try to borrow someones iPhone 5 and I'll try it put and let you know :)

It is SUPPOSED to work with an iPod, but if you can;t get it to work on anything else, it probably won't work on an iPod either.

It works on my iPod 5.5G. Which generation do you have? Search for the part number on the back (mine is MA446LL/A for example.)

Susan, it works with my 3rd Gen iPod, it would work with any iPod with the wide connector at the bottom. Pretty much any iProduct except the new 5 phones!

I bought this one, and while out of the box it only works with Iphone 5/5s, IT INCLUDES an ADAPTOR to make it compatible with iPod 5 - so YES, it works with iPod 5.

Because Ipod 5 has a smaller Adapter port, im not sure what systems work for it, do research online, the only other option is using the Headphone jack and use a double sided cord to plug into most standard systems

No- ipod 5th generation uses the lightning pin charger (the really tiny one)- this is the big fat older adaptor which would work for 4th gen and below...

The iPhone 5 won't work because it has the lightning connector, so you would need an adapter. However, the iPod 5 should work just fine, or an iPhone 4 or previous.
