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.

Yeah, you just click (the up/down buttons) repeatedly and it seems to change the volume. My iPod doesn't register the change (I checked the screen) but the volume did change. I use them for running so it was necessary that I don't have to take he device out of the sleeve on my arm.

I do not know which generation Ipod I have (5 years old) but it does function properly except for the charging indicator. My ipod is always plugged in, but when wokeup shows ipod battery is low. This does not affect how I use the unit-basically a storage/playback unit for my cd collection. I think they showed a compatibility chart in the online manual?

Ours stopped working correctly in the first month we had it. My son uses it as speakers only...turns up volume through his ipod.

Did you adjust the screw adjuster under the rubber plug. I typically turn it clockwise until it stops and the back off a little. I have also found that not all MP3 or IPODs put out the same supply power. I had an IPOD hooked up to one amp and the volume was allot lower than what I was used to. After much testing and adjusting I tried a different IPOD and it was back to normal.

Yes same thing happened to me. I ended up returning my unit. I went to the audio store to see if it happened to other units and it did. I would turn up the volume and the sound would cut out and not come back on unless I power cycled my head unit.

same problem... at low volumes with ipod touch 2nd gen. it has a terribly obnoxious static... nothing i do seems to correct the problem. using line in, it sounds great, but that kind of defeats the purpose of the system.

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.

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!

Does anyone have problems with the volume? Mine doesn't seem to be loud enough to hear in the classroom. I push the volume button all the way up, but it's really not very loud. Any suggestions? I'm using an iPod (volume all the way up) to play music through it.

Same problem with ours, so suspect there is a defect. My wife uses this speaker with an iPod, which does have a functional volume control. Probably not much help, sorry.

I love my waterproof ipod and use it a lot. So spoiled that I don't want to swim without music. Recently I have been swimming in a salt water pool and the last two times I used it I had problems. It quit playing and then came back in five minutes later. Right away I thought the salt was causing the problem. But honestly not sure what happened so ultimately not sure how to respond to your question.

On my device the volume both decreases and increases. It can be tricky because if you don't hold it down it will change the song if your listening to music through it. If yours does not increase, but it will decrease, I would venture to say that yours may not be working properly. You may want to consider returning it.

I just bought 30 gb video ipod. I get about 6 hours playing music and maybe 2 hours with video.I was told thats normal. I use it work and all the usb port are disabled here. After reading these posts, looks like instead of buying a AC charger I should just replace it with another one. Still with in return policey time.

Yes I have had the same problem. I think that it has to do with the AUX music device it's hooked up to, phone, iPod etc.... I haven't had it do that when I've used the built in radio. I believe if you go into the volume control of the device your using there should be a setting for that. Hope that helps�

Mine powers on but won't play my iPod anymore and that only worked a couple of times as well. Major let down
