Both my wife and mine iPhone 4s don't work in the model I purchased last December. I can get it to briefly charge only if I physically hold it in place. Otherwise it will disconnect. With me holding it in place it still does not play my music. This is the iPhone 4 without a case or bumper. I have no idea how you get it to work.

Yes, the plastic insert they ship in the jack is useless for earlier Ipod, Itouch devices...took awhile to figure it out..also, the jack doesn't quite hold the Itouch steady so u might have to place a piece of stiff paper behind to keep it upright. After awhile it isn't needed as it works out finally.

Yes, get a dock adaptor or extension cable, you're good to go.... unless the Altec does not work with the newer ios6, as some people report?

I was visiting my daughter who has had this unit for several years. The unit has worked fine and has never had any issues. I have the IPhone 4 and tried it out in this unit. It charged and played the music on my phone without any problems. The sound was great and I will be ordering one when I get back home...

My iPhone4 fits fine, without any adapter and even with the Apple iPhone bumper on it. Plays & recharges without a single snag.

If you remove the plastic piece surrounding the dock (not sure what to call it) it works fine. I think the one I have is an adapter for the 3G.

Unfortunately the mic does not work on the iPhone 4. We have both Apple and Android devices, and while these are great headsets for my Droid and Note 2, I can't use it for hands free operation on the iPhone 4, but music sounds great. Maybe the 4s is different though.

If it has the wider plug...I had the iPhone 4s and the iPad2 and it was great. Now I have the iPhone 6 and it doesn't work. However, I held onto the iPad so I can still use it. Really good sound.

I got this item for my granddaughter to use for her Ipod. She really like it so I will highly recommend it. Now, it has been several years since I purchased this speaker, it still works. Will it work on newer ipods, send a message to the seller. I hope this answer your question.

its got the older connection to iPhone 4, and iPhone 4S. Maybe there is an adapter? Have you contacted Rode? I've heard their support is very good. You could also visit the Tape Op message board and inquire there. There are people who know tons, and Tape Op is where I hheard of the iXY in the first place, due to one of their reviews. Hope this helps a little bit.

I'm curious about types as well, I have an iPhone 4 and this looks like a good product. The negative reviews sound like people that are just mad in general and I'm looking for a good speaker that can work with my current phone.

After I bought this, I found out it wasn't recommended for even iPhone 4! Do not purchase this speaker. It is NOT user friendly. I still can't get it to display the correct time, let alone figure out the alarm. And you would have to remove your case to synch your phone to it, even if it did work with your phone. I was VERY disappointed in this speaker.

Folks, rather than guesswork I actually own the Clarity (black) speaker and it pairs with the following gadgets I have: an iPad; an Asus Transformer; a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus; a Nexus One; a rooted NookColor (bluetooth on a rooted Nookcolor sucks, but that has nothing to do with this speaker); Nokia C6-01, E71 and 701, a Windows 7 laptop and an Acer W500 running WIndows 8 CP - the long and short of it is that as far as I can tell this will pair with just about anything. The Silver Version differs in having one fewer control - the skip track button is missing. This is because older versions of iOS would not respond to this particular button (although newer versions do) and I guess Monster wanted to avoid service calls. Unless you need the silver color and don't mind giving up the additional control why would anyone buy a more expensive version with less control?

Because later model iPods/iPhones and iOS versions have shown compatibility problems. I connect mine via aux input to airport streaming audio from iTunes/computer. If you want to play audio directly from dock, you may have problems

It should work fine with an iphone 4. It works through bluetooth and should pair with any device with bluetooth turned on. It pairs easily with my iphone 4s and iPad. It has been a nice speaker. The microphone could be better for conference calls but the speaker works great.

I just got the large one and let me just put this out there in case someone else has this problem. I paired this with my iphone and it wasn't playing music through it. So I "forgot" the speaker on my iphone. Turned the speaker off and back on and then held the "menu" button down to get it into pairing mode again and repaired the two and it started working fine. It would previously take calls and play them through the speaker, but not music. Not sure where the problem was, but it seems to be resolved.Sound quality and volume are pretty good for the money I paid. It feels like it's built sturdy and looks good. Haven't tried the aux out yet. I just got the large one and let me just put this out there in case someone else has this problem. I paired this with my iphone and it wasn't playing music through it.

I just checked it by calling my sis. It does work on phone calls but NOT with the iphone speaker phone turned on. It also works on Siri. To get better quality sound for both your iphone 5 and speaker do the following: On iphone main page touch settings. Scroll down to Music and touch. Touch EQ. Then pick a category to your liking. I have mine set on Bass Booster. Hope all of this helps you. I really like this speaker.

The Creative D200 will work out of the box with your iPhone / iPad - if your device has A2DP bluetooth connectivity. The transmitter is for devices which do not support this bluetooth profile. iPhones / iPads received A2DP support with the iPhone OS 3.0 update, so you should have no issues connecting to this speaker.

I just bought this for my 13 year old daughter and can't get it to play her iPhone 4. Is there a trick to it? When the iPhone is plugged in I can see that it is charging but there's no sound at all.

In the daisy chain, are we limited to using Satechi BT speakers, or can we make any speaker with a 3.5mm connection "bluetooth"? If so, how would the volume work? Are we limited to the volume of the BT? Would a louder speaker in the chain overwhelm or "blowout" the smaller one?Finally, I see compatibility with Apple Products, but I did not see Macbook Pro or iPhone 4s, specifically. Would these be compatible?Thanks,

I don't have an iPhone 4. It didn't work for my Samsubg Galaxy III-S. The issue, I think, was not the gadget itself. My Toyota is 11 years old. I don't think its car charger is 'smart' enough to benefit from this gadget. I could only hear static, with very low actual music in the background. I tried several frequencies (channels) with the same result. It works better for a friend who has a newer car. I bought an alternative gadget that has a cassette mechanism. That works much better for me. Hope this helps. ~Ed

When I ordered this, only iPhone 4 was out... However my boyfriend tried to use it for voice chat in a similar way, no it did not work.
