iPod Nano 5th Generation compatible? Does anyone know if this JBL Speaker Dock is compatible with the newest model of the Apple iPod Nano, the 5th Generation?

According to the Apple experts NONE of the new iPods (the ones with the USB connections rather than the firewire connections) will charge with current JBL docked speaker systems. They will play, but not charge. (as of June 2010)

Both of these work with the newest iPods for a similar price - will both play AND charge:http://store.apple.com/us/product/H0680VC/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY (iHome iA% app-Enhanced Alarm Clock)http://store.apple.com/us/product/TX391ZM/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY (Philips SBD7500 Portable Speaker Dock)Hope that helps. ;)

Yes it is compatible with all iPod and iPhone models. It has a separate adaptor cord to attach to the speaker .

Manual states it is compatible with iPod Nano 3rd/4th/5th generations + 6th generation with some limitations on remote functions. I've only used it running output from a portable CD player thru the auxiliary input. So I suspect the basic speaker function could work with non-compatible models even if the charging function and remote did not. Sound quality is excellent for the price as others have noted.

Hello Emily Scott, this Sony Portable Speaker Dock uses Lightning connector (8 pins) and are compatible with iPhone 5, iPod touch (5th generation) and iPod nano (7th generation). Your 1st gen iPod is not compatible with this device (uses 30 pin connector). -Ely

It is compatible with generation 5 per its specifications. It is designed exclusively for the iPod and works with multiple generations. It works with my iPad and other devices, too, using a standard 3.5 mm audio cord.

No, the speaker has a 30 pin dock and so we had to get an adaptor for about 30 bucks from apple for it to work with my daughters iPod gen 5 which is 8 pin like the iPhone 5.

Is the dock connector thin like the iphone 5 (and above)? Or is the Dock connector wider like the older ipods? i.e: http://applenapps.com/apple-rumors/next-gen-iphone-to-feature-even-smaller-magsafe-dock-connector.html If it's wider it will fit! This boombox doesn't support the smaller dock connectors found on the newer iphones/ipods. Haha I'm hope my explanation wasn't too wordy.

My daughter has the 5th Gen iPod and yes it works. It comes with several different inserts to be able to use different devices. Good sound and super cute even when not in use. Hope this helps.

Is this model compatible with the 5th gen Nano? Amazon pairs it with the 5th gen, but the description only goes up the 4th gen model.

I love this player, but I use the speakers. It has great sound. Maybe you could plug you earphones into the iPhone or iPod directly, but I've never done this. The new iPhone 5 has it's ear plug connector on the bottom, so I don't think you could use ear phones when the 5 is docked.

Yes, it is compatible with the iPhone 5. The UE Air Speaker dock connection is 30 pin. So to dock your iPhone 5 you'll need the Apple lightning-to-30-pin adapter. As far as the wireless AirPlay connectivity, that's all Apple so it's seamless as long as you're on the same Wi-Fi network.

Unfortunately, no. The 5th gen iPod has a lightning connector, which this dock does not support.

Hi Sam. You can connect the iPod nano (6th generation) since it is using the same 30-pin dock connector.

I does not work with anything newer than the ipod nano 3rd generation. I bought an ipod nano 4th gen but it did not work in the iGroove. I still use the 3rd generation keep it in the iGroove which is in my garage for when I work on projects love the player it sounds awesome.

I went to the JBL website and looked up this dock. The info on it dated back to 2009 (product info/owners manual) before the iphone5 came out. So the question is whether the iPhone5 has the same gizmo at the bottom to dock with anything the earlier versions could dock with.

I do not know the connector of Ipod nano Generation 7, but you can always use a cable and connect it to the USB port. That's what I do with my old iphone which now only plays pandora. I find to be more easy to hand the ipod connected to a cable than using the docking station.

No it is not compatible with the 5th generation iPod. This model uses the 30-pin connector.
