There are companies that do sell cases so that you can use your I-pod in a pool or in the rain. However, there is a Water Proof I-pod Shuffle that you can purchase on Amazon.com that is great!

You need a Cases for your mp3 player that is waterproof, as I said Mindy, you can search the Amazon or the vendor's website for your mp3 player.

Pelican makes some cases that are waterproof for ipods but I bought the H2O Audio Amphibx Fit Lightweight Waterproof Armband. The H2O works well but it is a fine art to seal it properly. If you are just floating around I would checkout pelican cases (some have Velcro to secure it). The H2O works great for the price but you got to make sure it is sealed correctly. Check out Swimoutlet.com sometimes there are pretty good deals on pelican cases.

you really can't make the ipod or iphone waterproof yourself--you can get a waterproof case

There Are a number of excellent pouches out there. The best one i hzve used is from best buy on line. One from amazon leaked and killed two iPods

Laura, I only bought these earphones for jogging and the fact that the earbuds came in 3 sizes. So far I have had not problems with them as I have been out in the rain and also sweaty wearing them. Not sure if this will help you

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 use mine with an Ipod, not an Iphone, so I don't know if my results will be the same as yours.

First off, how would you hear the music if it's underwater? I doubt it would work anyway because the blue tooth probably wouldn't work and I don't believe it is waterproof.

I'm not sure because this didn't come with earbuds, which I had expected. I had another case that came with earbuds so I'm using them. Not sure where you can buy waterproof earbuds. I use it with my IPod touch 5th generation player.

If you go onto the Apple support pages they Explain how to do it with the newer generations. Anything a regulat shuffle can do the waterproof ones can do. It comes in original packaging.

Yes .. there is a piece that is sealed and screws out when you want to add headphones.... Obviously it is not waterproof when the piece is out...

Sadly, this is a common issue. Myself and others have purchased a blue tooth to ensure the other party can hear. When you use a Bluetooth that problem is solved. Sadly, the barriers that are supposed to prevent water from entering seem to prevent people from hearing each other as well. Deems the phone useless for most! Good Luck.

I use these with a waterproof iPod shuffle. The ear buds are not charged, the ipod is and the ear buds p,ugh into it. I'm not sure if I answered your question, but these are the most comfortable waterproof earbuds I've had and I tried a lot of them. They are well designed and don't get in the way if you use goggles or a swim mask.

there was an extension jack that must be used in order for your headphone to work as Kyle explained better than I, also remember to put the little screw back in when done, I know that in the past with the ipads, apple had some sound issues occur after updates where you didnt have sound except thru headphone/earphones, or had to install a app to correct sound problems with the jack and settings - tho the case I purchased was for the Ipad, it wasn't waterproof at all, ipad3 is dead, hopefully your phones case will do as they advertise.

Thanks for your question. These wonderful sounding headphones are not waterproof and should not be submerged. Thanks again.

That happened to me until I went on underwater'a website and read to rub Vaseline around the earbud, then insert in ear. It made a world of difference. If that doesn't work, you may need a larger size bud.

It is not waterproof, more like water resistant. I have dropped my ipod while in this case countless times and also workout with it on my person and the only problem i've had is a very minor crack in the hard layer of the case. The case still works and theres no damage to my device itself.

I heard of iPod from Underwater Audio from a surgeon acquaintance. Before that, I was only involved with Nano or Touch in waterproof case, such as X-1 offers, and had not heard of any waterproofed iPods. Consequently, I never evaluated alternates to Underwater Audio.

My problem with the earpiece is that it never feels secure in my ear -- if I walk with it in, it even falls out sometime. I have the smallest insert on the earpiece, but it doesn't help (note that I have the same problem with the standard iPod headphone) -- is there a solution for this?

No it isn't waterproof. There is a circular opening to allow the user to touch the control dial. I have used mine in mild rain and my ipod is still working. I hope this helps.

I tried 3 supposed isolating ear phones, cause when riding my motorcycle I couldnt hear my ipod above the wind noise, even with a fullface helmet. I finally paid about 90 bucks for a pair that have changable ear buds, with one set, the only set i use, is made of memory foam like the ear protection, that is wrapped around the tiny speaker cone. They shut off almost all outside windnoise and let the audio thru, at safe volume levels. good luck.

I found these: Water Sport Waterproof In-Ear Earbud Stereo Headphones for iPod/iPhone/MP3 Player Black , Can't say that I love either the player or the earphones, but they work. I wish the volume were much louder. I am still looking for earphones that I love.
