Which docking stations do you have? I bought a Belkin wall plug thing from amazon. Three outlets and two USB chargers.

If it is an older docking station with the pins like the nano 4 then it will work fine. Even if it doesn't fit, you can still use auxiliary hookup and just charge the nano seperately.

The way I see it, if you can plug a flash drive into your Mac, and you can use it, then there is no reason why the Docking station won't work as well. Your MAC will just see it as another drive, providing you have a hard drive inserted...

Just and FYI for everyone out there who has a second generation itouch. The charging capability of any of the periphial docking devices that you have to play your itouch on are no longer supported by the second generation. The first generations are fine but a small programming change was made to the second generation that caused this to happen. So it's not the fault of the docking device you purchased- it's the Itouch itself. The only thing you can do is charge it using a Apple compatable charger but you won' t able to listen to it while charging Sorry.. I just got this news after purchasing my new itouch and calling the store where I bought it. Just and FYI for everyone out there who has a second generation itouch.

The charging speed will be faster when it is plugged into the wall or using our docking station as opposed to be connected to a PC. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with. RND

I noticed that this Docking Station is always on. But it's not really a 'docking station' in the tradition sense. You plugin your USB to your laptop to 'drive' the unit.

Based on other users reviews, the 16.12 is a newer version of the 16.09 and both have the same functions. I don't use a docking station so the fact that the 16.12 uses a different one than the 16.09, doesn't matter to me If you want to utilize that feature, buy the 16.09 and dock. The computer is great but I haven't been able to get the cadence feature to work. One thing, don't lose the key tool for changing the battery or you will destroy the unit trying to open it.

The charging station only charges devices that use USB charging cables. At this time, we aren't aware of any laptop which can charge via USB.

Yes, the docking station charges the Nexus 7 via the gold pins (pogo pins) on the side of the unit. The docking station is powered by the same USB connector that originally comes with the Nexus 7. The advantage of using this method to charge your Nexus is that you will no longer wear out your USB connector due to repeated charging of your device as the Pogo pins do not require your device to "snap in" and therefore wear out.

In a word, beautifully. We have a surface pro 2 with a docking station and actually bought a second port replicator to plug into one of the USB 3 slots. We run two additional monitors, one touch one not, with the surface. If you have issues getting touch to work, google the touch screen setup for windows 8. A tool in the control panel makes it work after some quick setup. GREAT monitor! We have 3 in our office now.

I don't think so. I have a 2nd gen touch and these are new enough to be USB powered. The old "Firewire" 12v charged iPods that this is meant for were like the original Classics and such, I believe even before the color screen models. If your device charges a 2nd gen touch (which supports USB charging) then it probably won't make a difference for you. This is meant for older docking devices that don't support USB charging, to make them usable for newer iPods.If you have a device that charges your 2nd gen touch but not a 3rd gen touch, that's odd. I can see it being the other way around. I ended up not using the scosche. It worked from a charging perspective but had other issues. I don't think so.

I own a Surface Pro 2, but I don't own the docking station. However, it works PERFECTLY on my Surface Pro 2, I had no issues whatsoever. I plugged it in, connected the monitor to it, and it worked. I assume it would be the same with the docking station.

I actually do not own this docking station, I bought it for my son and I asked him how was his satisfaction with it and he told me that he was completely satisfied with it, but couldn't answer me about the question concerning the S5 charging on it.

For a charging device it is too expensive I would expect this kind of price from a PC docking device that charges and syncs that also comes with the ability to gauge the internal battery's lifespan. Something like the LaCrosse charger for double/triple A (AA/AAA) batteries. See link belowLa Crosse Technology BC-700 Alpha Power Battery Charger

I have not purchased a docking station for this laptop. It does seem to overheat and the fan has started making noises periodically. We keep ours on a stand to allow air circulation, but have no plans to order a docking station. If it didn't overheat would get another one. Like the keyboard feel, except for the issue with the keys I mentioned before-which I seem to have solved- and the screen is great.

I wasnt getting the blue tooth for docking station. I wanted to blue tooth my 120 GB Ipod classic to blue tooth head phones which will not work. This will basically transmit from ipod to a docking station that has the receiver plugged in so as far as work it depends on what your wanting to use it for so if it is to blue tooth to headphones then no.
