Ipod dock: Does it work?

It works, but the sound is terrible. It sounds much better when playing music from the ps3. Iphone 4.

If your iPod uses the old style charger cable, (I'm pretty sure it does), it will work in the dock. If not, it will work using a 1/8 stereo cable from the headphone jack.

iPod docks just fine. If iPhone 5 has a different pin size, then you will probably need to get an adapter with the RCA audio plugs.

I have not used the ipad dock as I am purely a CD guy. The Unit I bought recently appears to be ok though I would have much preferred a socket for MP3 - Rais Yatim

I have an Ipod and it works great with the docking station. If your docking connection is the same as the Ipod touch it will work just fine.

Dear Customer, The dock only works with Apple items but it has an auxiliary port for any device that has a headphone jack.

Yes, there is also an input with an optional dock called DMPort. I plug in my iPods to it to play music & charge as well. The older model, anyway...

It does charge the iPod...but it eventually stopped playing my iPod from the dock after a couple months. Various sites suggest fixes for the error message (device not recognized) that began to pop up, and they worked at first. Finally nothing worked. I believe it is an issue with Apple's not "playing nice" with others--not sure. Regardless, it was nice while it lasted but ultimately a pricey mistake. I would not buy this unit again to work with an Apple product until there is a way to know that all compatibility issues have been resolved. Altec's own web site acknowledges the problem.

It works, you just have to remove the base (Took 5 minutes, no tools required, just push in the tab where the remote is stored and pull up). But considering the V2 version of the dock is only a few bucks more, go with that one instead for the 80GB version

Yes it does! The remote will even control your ipod if it is in the docking port.

Ok, it's not working with a dock station, but with normal apple cable works great, if you buy other cable check that it's not too wide, example: belkin cables are super good, but they get damaged cause of this thing. I love it, cause I always have my phone with the strap around my hand and now it never falls down ;)

I recieved the system a week ago and I docked my Ipod Touch 4th Generation (IOS/Firmware: 4.3.2) and it works wonderfully. It even charges the Ipod as the product release notes claim.

it does not have an ipod docking station but it will allow you to play ipod through a cable that plugs form the ipod headphone input to the front of the unit. (cable not included)

No iPod Dock or USB port. Bluetooth streaming or mini-jack from iPod to Sound bar will work.

This package DOES NOT include ipod dock. Other models do, but you get THX quality instead of ipod. If you want, you can shop ebay for ipod dock for less $.

Yes, I just tried my 5G iPod on the dock. It charges the iPod and the remote works the music functions.

I believe that this dock is compatible with most iPods. I have a fourth generation iPod and it works great on this dock. Definitely worth the money.
