Does the iPod connector on this just suck, or did I get a lemon? Does it sound like I got a bad one, or are they all like this?

Are you "hot swapping" the iPod when you have the problem? (In other words, are you unplugging the iPod with the Pioneer receiver still turned on?)

At least for me 87.9 fm goes completely dead when I turn it on. I only have 3 frustrations with this device. 1-it's hard to get the gain just right. 2-the iPod adaptor didn't work well for me. I ended up using the 1/8 inch input. Works, OK, but will need another charging solution for iPod (and might have been able to get a cheaper option for 1/8 inch audio input). 3-You have to secure the heavy box under the dash very well. If it moves around, it causes all kinds of Chaos - so make sure to have a plan for that.

If you're using this for an iPod don't get this. The connections don't transf audio well

Are you using the on board cable down in the very right hand corner of the unit? I plug my apple ipod in with that cable, hit the audio in button on top right of unit, and turn volume up all the way on the ipod and pretty high on the unit. Good luck

Sometimes there is a fuse inside. Was the speaker clipping too much? That could cause to blow. If using the ipod feature on high volumes or the usb, it can become dislodged

I haven't had any problems. It works great! It sound like the device it is being connected to is not working. Have you tried connecting to another device? If it doesn't connect then it has a defect.

Yes, I had the same problem and wound up getting replacement from the company after I posted a bad review about it. I did, however, find that the problem wasn't as bad later on and no problem using line-in. I'd say always use the line-in and your headphone jack when possible.

Hi Andrea, I would love to help you here. Have you been able to pair them to any device or is it just the iPod 5 that you are having trouble with? Is the LED flashing blue/red alternately which indicates the headphones are in pairing mode? Please send us an email at support@lil-gadgets.com and we would be happy to help you further troubleshoot.Jacquieco-founder, LilGadgets

I've found my dock is too flimsy, and so when I put my iphone on the dock it leans back and doesn't play anymore. It does play the mini, but it is touchy. I have found that a pig tail 30 pin cord seems more durable and plays as well or better. My new ipod nano didn't have a 30 pin connection, and so I bought an adapter, but it didn't work. Not going to buy any more docks.

I know this is a common concern but I just got this speaker and it CAN charge an ipod touch 2nd generation...if you have the time to deal with it.I tried playing around with it and figured out that if you have the speaker turned on (with the ipod turned on (or in sleep mode) and inserted on the dock) and unplug and replug the speaker, it begins charging each time. The speaker MUST be turned on when you unplug it or else it doesn't work. The ipod doesn't have to be on the dock when its unplugged but it has to be on the dock once you plug it in for this to work. This is the only way I can get it to charge 100% of the time. Tedious but it works. Let me know if this helps. Good luck everyone!

I just got this item and am I am having the same issue with this and it is a bit frustrating. I bought it because I wanted to use it with USB (I do not have an ipod or anything like that).

There is a USB connection not an Apple connection. I haven't tried hooking my IPod up to it. It does pretty much everything else.

I had the same result. Very annoying. If you already have the older cable you just need to buy the adapter from Apple. Wish I knew that before I ordered this.

Yes, that is what I have. It tends to drop the connection to the iPod every 10 minutes or so now. Not sure what caused it.

I had one of these that fell off a low table on to its back and it stopped working all together (no power lights) and it turned out that the connection where you plug the power into the dock had broken. My handy dandy nephew fixed it and it works fine. Does it seem like there is no power to it or is it that there is no sound but the lights work? It could be a bent pin on the iPod connector.

I haven't had any such problems... my only thoughts would be you do have it plugged in on the input side, not the output side. Bluetooth; it's not linked to another Bluetooth source. When I would grab ours if it was within range of say my daughters Ipod and still linked to that Ipod then I could not access it until we unlinked it. Hope this helps.
