It froze on you. You have to press both center and up arrow buttons together and hold for about 10-12 seconds. Once done, it will reset and work fine afterward. Hope this helps you, and that you still have the ipod.

Esteban thanks a bunch!!!! I looked everywhere because my ipod was too loud and the radio wasn't working. After I pressed the center and up arrow (menu) button for 12 seconds everything worked!!! I thought I had a bad ipod!! THANKS

Yes, the same thing happened to me this evening. My iPod Nano worked fine last night, and tonight it's doa.

I tried the iPod/speaker route. On any given day, one or the other of them would be out of batteries. My speaker was cordless, so I had to replace the AA batteries every couple weeks and my iPod had to be charged every few days, if not every day. So, invariably, one of them would not be working properly. Or the iPod would be in the other room charging, etc., etc. Also, the MP3 of rain that I was using would fade out at the end of the track and fade back up at the start of the track, so if I put it on repeat, the baby would wake up every time the track restarted. Really frustrating. Get something that plugs in and that will run continuously. I tried the iPod/speaker route. On any given day, one or the other of them would be out of batteries.

Are you turning it off after use? You need to hold the power button down until the little light turns red. I was having to charge it every time I used it until I realized it needed to be turned off. I thought it would just shut off like the ipod does after a bit of time. Now that I turn it off, I can used it for many runs before needing to charge it.

Woah, still orange? I wanna say that at one point, I had the same issue but I'm preeetty sure that it went away and eventually turned green (I haven't charged it in like 2 weeks). Currently, I'm in the process of returning the IPOD cuz of some other non-light related reason, but the gentlemen with Underwater Audio has been doing everything I would want as a consumer. I feel confident about my soon to be initiated process of sending the iPod back and receiving a new one.Is your light still staying orange?

I recd mine in the mail today and the charger part doesn't seem to work. It doesn't seem that the USB fits correctly into the charger and the jack doesn't fit firmly into the transmitter. Just doesn't seem like it is the right size. Is that possible? Or am I doing something wrong? It is not charging my ipod while transmitting. HELP?

My sensor just died after only 3 months! I used it a fair amount (maybe 4x/week on average?), but logged less than 100 miles, I believe. I never turned it off or removed the piece from the bottom of the ipod--could that be why? I loved this product and would like to replace it asap, but I do feel a little cheated that it didn't last longer and would like to find out what to do to conserve the battery life on my next one.

Yes, happened to my FIRST E260 that I got, locked up until the batteries died completely then worked like a champ......I still returned it for a new one though (that was after a week of owning it), ever since then, no problems whatsoever until I tried to manipulate the title of a folder already on the Sansa......no no no, don't try to change the titles of folders that are already synched on the little guy......bad juju. I updated my firmware/software 3 days ago, and it was the best thing I've done with this yet: It gave me 3 new options for the Equalizer (all bass, all treble, and Custom). I adjusted the EQ manually and it sounds just as good as any of the Ipods I looked at prior to deciding on this baby. I would buy this anyday over an ipod, my Sopranos videos play on here, if you have the patience to wait for the software to convert a .wmv to an .avi otherwise, this MP3 player rules. Question: Does anyone use this to connect to a dock that is advertised to work with an Ipod? Does it work?

Hi John,Sorry for the bad news but when apple changed their charging system from Firewire technology to USB it rendered all the newer models useless for charging. I had to resort to using the Ipod charger and then putting back on the dock. You're likely getting a "Charging not supported on this device" type of notice. My older one worked till it's final day but it was the old style. The only solution is a new dock system or find a cheap old one on Ebay. Best of luck,Cheers--Sam

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.

I use mine with an Ipod, not an Iphone, so I don't know if my results will be the same as yours. The volume control on my headphones will only allow volume to go as high as inputted on the Ipod and won't go higher unless I raise the volume physically on the Ipod. Easy fix, just have the volume turned up on your phone before you start and you can always adjust down with the headphones. This has never been a problem for me. I only need the volume to be at approximately 1/4 level on my Ipod to get enough out of the headphones, and even with that I have to adjust the volume down on the earphones, even while using them in noisy areas. Hope this helps.

I have/had a 4th generation nano and the same thing happened. I called for support and was told that the headphone socket needed to be replaced. I found detailed repair videos on youtube and everything else I needed EXCEPT the part. The part was discontinued and I've not been able to find it. However, it is my understanding that if you bring your ipod into an apple store that they can/will replace the part for something like $80.00

Yeah, you just click (the up/down buttons) repeatedly and it seems to change the volume. My iPod doesn't register the change (I checked the screen) but the volume did change. I use them for running so it was necessary that I don't have to take he device out of the sleeve on my arm.

Did some testing back and forth between the Thunderbolt station and my computer... while the headphones worked fine, the playback / volume in iTunes cannot be controlled through the station. I had to do the test twice on the station because I almost never use headphones with my computer so I wanted to confirm the results.

I have the same problem. I'm using an iPod touch and the charging quit. It plays fine, but the WiFi quits without the charger running, so my connection to internet radio drops after about 20 minutes or so.

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!

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

My iPod shuffle is no longer working. I contacted the manufacturer but to no avail. I wouldn't spend $ on another!
