You need the previous version of the airport express (Models M9470LL/A or MB321LL/A). The newest model of airport express will not physically fit into the speaker unit. Yes, any iPod or iPhone or iPad will be compatible. You simply airplay to the airport express that is embedded in the speaker.

Sorry forgot to answer the second part of the question. But it certainly works for the latest iPhones and iPads. I have a iPhone 5s, works without a problem.

My computer is down right now but I'm expecting a new memory chip early next week and I can give you better answers. But, if you go to the Apple store online and look for refurbished hardware you will see some airport expresses that have an integrated AC prong that is the correct device. It is the preceding device for the current express that is shaped like an Apple TV. They are around and you can find them. Maybe even on eBay. I just found it on the Apple store for refurbished Mac accessories. It doesn't have a model number on the store and right now I don't know one to find it. But it's obvious that it's the top one on the list of Mac accessories for about $69.

Only other thing I can think of is that you want to make sure that the airport express that you buy, will handle 802.11 a/b/g/n. I have some older ones that are five or six years old that do not have the capability to work with the newer devices.

It will not work with the newest generation of expresses. It should work with the older style though.

this unit does not have any kind of input or output connections in the back, there is a ipod dock for the older generation i-phone/touch family, also this unit will connect to your regular router, no need for apple router(airport express). i have installed airfoil for windows on my laptop and it works great, the laptop and this unit have to be on the same unit to talk to each other. if the other reviewer is talking about the shiny chrome input jack above the power jack --it is a fm antenna input and not a speaker out

Will it work for the new iPod nano 8G? BTW, this airplay unit is $149 on Sony.com. I suppose there's shipping added, which makes this deal basically even with Sony.com. Kind of ho hum.

Unfortunately it won't work if your iPod has the lightning connector. The docking station has a 30 pin connector. But you could get an adapter. I am going to get an adapter so that I can use the docking station with my iphone 5S, which also has the lightning connector. The docking station is great, and I want to keep using it!

If you're referring to the AirPort express device, that is not included. The AirPort utility is pre-installed software.

If your in my town I would let you check. I use it for my ipad and my freind has used it for his iPhone, model uknown, when we were working on his plane at the airport. If it has the same plug as the iPad one or two or the ipod it should work. I like it. It has great sound. I don't have a iPhone5. I've used it for a year with no problems.

Hi!if you don't mind me asking, since I already have a wireless network in my house and the airport express can be use to stream my itunes music, all I would need to buy are the AE, and the cables to connect it to my speakers (and use my iphone 4 as a control remote).am I right?thanks!

Don't think this is the same "Airplay" technology used by Apple. These have been around a couple of years. I noticed in news from the CES that there do seem to be many Airplay receivers and speaker systems in the works to function with iTunes/iPod. If you've used the Airports to stream, you know it's a pretty cool system.

It should work with all of them that have that kind of large port. I know the new iPhone has the smaller one, and if the new iPods have the same port, it won't fit, but I think all of the other iPods are kind of interchangeable with their ports (my roommates and I hall had different types and we could all share chargers).

It works fine with iPhone and iPad. I do not have an iPod but I'm sure that it will work.

I'm using it with the 2nd Generation Airport Express. It's wireless N with built in prongs (for a US style electrical socket)

I'm looking to purchase an airport card for a 1,1 mac pro as well...were you able to find one that works with your model?

The product will work with all ipods and iphones with a 30 pin connector or can be plugged to the unit with a 3.5 mm jack that comes with the unit Thank you and Happy Holidays

Yes, just download the Airport Utility program from the Apple Support website. The Utility will walk you through the process - really easy.

If I understand the question, this is not possible. The Airport Express actually gets installed inside the speaker. In my case, the express networks with an Airport Extreme. Also note that the speaker (at least my model) only supports some specific models of the express so you should doublecheck.

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

I have the ipod 4 and it works with that one. However, a gal at Target told me they sell adapters. I would contact the manufacturer: www.ihomeaudio.com .... good luck!
