Can I plug in my iPod/ iPad into the USB port? I would like to play songs from my mp3 player, or stream YouTube karaoke songs from my iPad.

The USB port is only for charging. You need bluetooth or 3.5mm audio port in order to play your music.

I USED to be able to do that but it no longer is working. I was wondering if it were my iPod but nothing seems wrong with it. Using my iPod to play music through this unit is still working fine but I bought it for the precise purpose of using it as a larger screen for watching videos from my iPod. Anyone have suggestions? I loved it when it was working properly.

We have hooked up iPad and iPhone using either the USB port or 3.5 mm plug ( like ear buds/many headphones.) Am sure iPad mini would be the same. I just hooked up my Mac - thru headphone jack - would not work for me

You can definitely use an aux cable to play music. But I am not sure whether the usb stick works?

You need an external USB power source, You need to get a USB to 2 Prong Wall Plug adapter. Then all you have to do is plug in the 1/8th inch "ipod" plug to the Ipad.

There is a USB connection not an Apple connection. I haven't tried hooking my IPod up to it. It does pretty much everything else.

I don't see why not. It has a USB input on the front panel and I have my iPod hooked up to it and playing. So, unless there's some restriction on the iPad, it should work just fine.

Kind of... it can play music from an ipod (with a cable) but you can't do karaoke with it

I have a different iPad than yours. I have the newest iPad with a lightning port. I bought a lightning digital adapter for my mp300 projector to connect to my iPad. I purchased it from amazon for $39.00. The adaptor is an apple product.

You can, but it's not ideal. I hooked up my ipod using a 1/8 jack to stereo RCA Jacks, plugged into the front AV input. Get good audio quality, but no control over the iPod, of course... I'm probably going to go ahead and invest in a dock...

You would need to use a cord from your Ipad to the Ipod connection, or into the AUX jack. Of course, the cord is sold seperately.

Unfortunately, no. Only MIDI in/out. The usb is only used for charging your iPad/iPhone.

yes it will play a USB stick as long as you have the USB adapter cord. I also play an apple I pod thru it and an simple MP3 player.

yes. you can plug any mp3 player, iPad, iPod, and iPhone into it if you have a headphone plug on the device. It's not a docking station. There's a short cord (~6" I think...I'm not measuring it right now) that comes out of the base that you plug into your device.

The USB port is for charging and connecting iOS devices. This means that you can use a mp3 player connected to the USB port *IF* it is an iPod or an iPhone. If you have a non-Apple mp3 player, then you would connect the device by a 3.5mm cord to the aux input on the JBL unit. To be clear - you can connect ANY mp3 player to the JBL speaker. Only Apple devices will connect by USB.

I have not tried that as I only use my iphone via Bluetooth but on the side there is a USB port so I don't see why you couldn't connect an iPad, iPod or even a computer to it.
