I haven't used a docking station. The speakers I use connect by a cord. Sorry!

Unfortunately you have to take it off to put it on the dock but the way I see it is for spending less than $5 it's okay. Hope this helps.

No it does not. You need the adapter...but that makes the ipod sit to high up and will not sit in the space provided for docking. So an adapter cable is the best solution and sit it on top or lay it beside.

I haven't been able to find it either. And my Ipod doesn't work with the dock, don't know why. Have to use the cable instead.

You need to take off any covers to use the dock . Otherwise you will not make good connection. Hopethis helps you out.

I have an iPod classic that I use with this auxiliary cable. I can skip songs (station button #6) or go back (station button #5) using the head unit. Haven't found a button on the head unit that will pause the iPod except for the head unit on/off button, in which case the iPod must be manually started again.

fannie lou, sounds like you got a lemon. I'd return if it was me. And regardless would return it since you already have docking systems. The charging issue is a known one, if you have older docking systems, it may likely not work. New docking systems will most likely work. That does suck. My attitude is that the Nano 4th gen is great for first time ipod users like myself (who will buy new docking stations anyway), not so good for existing users.

OH i know that feeling. Its as simple as pulling it apart, BUT its going to feel as if its going to break. Its a bad feeling. Just take your time and separate the front and back of the case.I haven't took the case off of my iPod since Ive placed it on for the 2nd time. I hope this helps a little.

With other ballistic cases I own with apple products, they do not connect into all of the dock stations I come across in the multitude of hotels where I stay.Just use the conventional cable, I am starting to look for a male/female extension cord to solve that issue

The Macbook will not fit in the docking station with the protective cover on. You will need to get the protective cover off.

put one hand each side of the case at the bottom where the opening for the charging port is and pull apart, you should do that sitting down so you don't drop your ipod

Sorry I couldn't respond sooner as you probably already have the answer to your question by now. The Proporta IPod case not only allows you to leave the ear buds connected, but you can also plug the combination USB charger/transfer cable into the IPod while it is in the case. I don't think we have removed it from the case since it was purchased. Its a good way to protect the unit, and works well. Good luck!!

Does the case and screen protector mean the iPod Touch will no longer fit in a docking station? (and thanks for all this information - it's appreciated!)

One thing that stood out when I was researching this before purchase, was dependent on what shows on the iPod/iPhone screen when plugged into the device (whether car dock, home stereo dock, etc). I recall seeing an explanation on this on cablejive's site, or maybe it was a chat tech support with them. This is the way it was explained to me when I was researching it, and it was true for my 2nd Gen iPod touch: -If your dock normally allows functionality of the iPod when you connect it, i.e. you can scroll through music and playlists, etc. but usually see the volume bar across the bottom of the screen disappear, then this would work with your device because it only requires an "audio" connection, not a full data connection. This was the case for my iHome radio dock at home, I could still scroll through music and playlists and Pandora from my iPod while docked. The dockboss air DID work for me in this application. -If your dock takes over the iPod, i.e. the iPod displays "docking accessory" and locks out all audio functionality, then this will not work with it as that device requires a full "data" connection to the iPod. This is the case with a BT device I added to my vehicle, it locks the iPod screen from any music menu stuff (music collection, Pandora, etc.), and forces me to instead select my music through the other device's screen. The dockboss air DID NOT work with this device. When you connect your iPod to your Chysler's cable, does it: 1-lock your iPod screen and force you to select music from your radio's screen? --if so, then this most likely won't work because the dockboss air doesn't support this data-based connection over the air 2-or does it keep your iPod screen open and allow you to select music directly from your iPod, and only transfer the audio to the radio (radio might just display "device connected" or something)? --If this is the case, then I would say you have a good chance this would work for you because this is an "audio-only" connection.

Ahhhhh....so you were sent the wrong Altec Lansing docking station. I still haven't ordered another one from Amazon yet. I was thinking about taking my IPOD touch (2nd Gen/16 GB) in to Target or Wal-Mart to try it on their docking stations. Has anyone ever tried that??Also, GM...I went through A.L. Tech support and none of the adaptors worked either. By the way, did you get a white plastic adaptor that came with your IPOD??? I found one here and it has 16 written on it. The black ones that I sent back to Amazon all had different numbers.Thanks,Seaturtlelady

Since I only have an iPhone I can't answer your question about he iPod docking.

Yesit works. I have the same case. Just need to take out the insert on the dock.

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.
