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!

Muge, I know this is old but maybe it will help someone else who is looking to buy this dock. Yes, You can use it with the Ipod Touch 3g. I bought and received mine last week and it works great with my Ipod Touch 3g. However, like above the charging situation is a bit of a pain. I need to unplug and replug the dock itself in each time to make it charge my ipod

Strange, there is a picture of a remote speaker for iPods, but your question doesn't relate to it. However, if it does - in the center btwn. the speakers is a box w/ a tab you press to open & insert 4 AAA batteries. For the Shuffle, it has a self contained rechargeable battery (lithium) you'll need a USB wall plug with a cable with a small jack on one end & USB plug on the other to charge it. There is a tiny light that's on the shuffle that's orange when needing recharging & green when fully charged. Check the Apple web site for instructions. Mine came w no instructions too.

I would troubleshoot the device first....try using a different USB port first to make sure it's not just a faulty USB port...If it still doesn't work the device may be defective.....Also make sure your IPod is working because it might be the IPod that's defective and not the charging dock. Good luck

It takes a while to charge. Just plug it into a USB port that's constantly on like your cable box, or if you have a newer TV. You can also use your cell charger, just switch the cables. It usually rubs about an hour and a half to 2 hours. The red light well go of once fully charged. I love this speaker!

Try fully charging the speaker first.If that does'nt work,get in touch with the seller you bought the speaker from.

during set up, how was the volume set in your computer/pad/phone? i control the volume in my setup, from my iPad. i believe that i too had that issue, and my son enlightened me. i may also have incorrectly set up the blue tooth. certainly glad my son is patient... because i have only been retired from being a computer programmer for over 30 years, would have hoped that i would have been able to set up a small speaker on my own!

The speaker comes with a charging cable (not a charging device). The cable is USB at one end and a 'pin' type connector at the other (speaker) end. The cable is NOT USB to micro USB. Lose the cable and you are screwed...

I saw some of the responses and they say it does not work while charging... In my review video I demonstrate that it does... Just to make sure I just tried it right now and it does... :(.I charged it with an external battery pack while using bluetooth from my laptop to my speakers. End: It works! :)

It doesn't really stay in dock mode for me. If it actually goes into dock mode, and you have a music shortcut on the dock screen (which can be customized) you can play music through the speakers while charging. But if you end up pressing the home key and taking it out of dock mode, it stops playing through the apeakers and the you'll have to undock/redock again to play through the speakers. Its really annoying. If you end up getting this dock and figure out a fix, please let me know!

I wanted to know this as well, and as I was going through the reviews one person said:"I purchased two of these, and the LCD display did not work on one. They do not charge an iPod touch (fourth-generation), so if you were planning to listen to your tunes for hours while driving down the road; you had better make a different plan. Hours later, your battery will be dead. On the other hand, the FM transmitter seems to work okay without the plug-in attachment. "

This actually charges my iPod. I keep an iPod touch in the glove box at all times. It charges and plays music and videos. I would have to say, I 'think' that it will charge your phone, but not 100%. It DOES charge my iPod, so I assume that it will but not 100%.

ok it's plugged into my iPhone 6 now how do you get the speakers to turn on? I see the music is playing but nothing from the speakers. Not the best directions.

I had a hard time the first time too, but you just have to hold the power button for a few seconds. I've had success wall charging with a universal phone charger as well as with the usb included with the speaker (charged on a computer). Also, as an FYI.. don't pull out the other connection (the one that connects to the music source) to far as I did and cannot get it to go back into the speaker.

Love it. Had it for a few months now and have had no problems. It charges your IPOD and also runs on its on internal rechargeable battery. I bought an IPOD player a few years ago that doesn't work without power and doesn't charge my IPOD for way more than this. Sounds great as well

Hi i actually tried to charge it through the usb port and it was charging but not as effectively as i wanted...so i used the normal charging point which charged the tablet alot faster and havent had issues that way.... Its a good tablet...very fast...multitasking abilities beat the mini ipad.. And for the price you cant get better :-) trust me Ive tried alot of tablets before buying this one

Mine doesn't work with the car charger either. I assumed the battery was dead. How inconvienent if one has to charge it in the house if one travels a lot. Also It only lasts for a month and I don't use it much. Also it shuts off after ten minutes out of the car which is inconvienent because there is no way to tell if it is on when you get back in.Very good sound however and otherwise I like it.
