It froze on you. You have to press both center and up arrow buttons together and hold for about 10-12 seconds. Once done, it will reset and work fine afterward. Hope this helps you, and that you still have the ipod.

Esteban thanks a bunch!!!! I looked everywhere because my ipod was too loud and the radio wasn't working. After I pressed the center and up arrow (menu) button for 12 seconds everything worked!!! I thought I had a bad ipod!! THANKS

Yes, the same thing happened to me this evening. My iPod Nano worked fine last night, and tonight it's doa.

I don't have an issue with the bass setting on mine. Have you checked the EQ on your iPod? Make sure it's not on Super Bass. Or, you can make sure you lighten up the bass setting.

Are you using the onstage micro portable? If so it should charge it, mine does and it works for others as well. Just make sure the ipod is shoved all the way into the port (you may even want to remove the plastic seat thing to test it). I found if the ipod wasn't pushed all the way down it would still play, but not charge sometimes - must be part of the connection or something. if it doesn't work after trying that, I'd go back to the apple store or send it back to amazon, might be a quality issue. good luck,ac

Hi I'm not sure if this will help you or not but I suspect that mine was froze on me a couple of times when I couldn't hear anything or get it to respond..smiles...so I held down the left/back button and bottom/down area on the zune swirl pad for a few second and my screen then went to black. I then lightly pressed the center of the swirl touch pad and the screen came back to life and the sound was back and all was well. I hope that this will help you. I saw a notation on resetting in a cnet review as well but can't recall what their suggestion was. If I come across it again in my lurking around, I will come and post it for you if your question is still open and unresolved. Best Wishes

Change the sound format until you find compatible sound your looking for there's a button that does this. At least yours is still working if I plug in four things to charge it spazzes out and quits or everything plugged in starts shooting me messages or turning themselves on and off and the second alarm stopped all together I'd wish I'd known plus the sound quality even with the format changed still creates mad reverb when pushed too loud. Hope this helps. If you just got it ID return it ASAP... good luck

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!

I don't know - this unit stopped working last year. It was my son's and we found the volume was just automatically go from whatever setting to zero after about 30 seconds of playing. And you couldn't get the volume to change unless you powered it off & on again. BTW, he just got a iPod Touch 5th gen - and he loves it.

My experience was that I did just that....plugged in my ipod cord and played the music, no extra app required. However, two things happened: a) the ipod's battery was depleted (for some reason, I expected one of the two-pronged cords would provide a charge) and b) the system's preset buttons became unresponsive to the touch. I unplugged the ipod and reset the preset buttons and I've had no problems at all since then (several months ago) - however, I haven't bothered to use the ipod since then. It may have had nothing at all to do with b).....

i haven't noticed any changes in volume during any time using it with a typical ipod. i dont have the phone, so i cant tell you if there is a connection issue. these are great though!

The only thing I can think of is the speakers battery is running low. Could also be a Bluetooth comparability issue if you have an older generation iPod.

Yes, happened to my FIRST E260 that I got, locked up until the batteries died completely then worked like a champ......I still returned it for a new one though (that was after a week of owning it), ever since then, no problems whatsoever until I tried to manipulate the title of a folder already on the Sansa......no no no, don't try to change the titles of folders that are already synched on the little guy......bad juju. I updated my firmware/software 3 days ago, and it was the best thing I've done with this yet: It gave me 3 new options for the Equalizer (all bass, all treble, and Custom). I adjusted the EQ manually and it sounds just as good as any of the Ipods I looked at prior to deciding on this baby. I would buy this anyday over an ipod, my Sopranos videos play on here, if you have the patience to wait for the software to convert a .wmv to an .avi otherwise, this MP3 player rules. Question: Does anyone use this to connect to a dock that is advertised to work with an Ipod? Does it work?

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!

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

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.

Let me ask, do you have it on the charger? Because if you do, it will not play the flash drive. Just as a suggestion, return it while you can because it is very hard to navigate your music files and then mine simply got stuck on one song and wouldn't play anything else. Needless to say, I trashed it about a month after I got it.

Well, maxing the volume on the ipod and then adjusting your speaker settings (bass/treble) was what I was going to recommend. I had a problem with this with a prior aux cord (unfortunately, I could not get it to go away and had to replace it). I found if I rotated the wire, there was one spot that it was decreased, so I attributed it to a faulty cord. I have zero buzzing at all. Is the ipod newer or older? My older nano seemed especially troublesome with the aux cords while my newer ones are a-okay. If that is the issue, then there may not be a good solution. Good luck.

D-a-a-h-h! I don't feel very intelligent right now. I went home last night and looked at itagain only to realize there was already an insert in place, so of course another wouldn't fit on top of it!!!! All is well now, just need to figure out a way to have the iPod on the dock and listen to the radio...without the earphones.Thanks so much :)
