i am not sure what kind of male ends you have. one side should be usb and the other is 1/8 inch for apple products. the usb goes to the usb on computer or charger that takes a usb connection. i have several usb type chargers that plug in to wall socket and it works on all of them. i hope this answers your question.

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!

I bought this unit, based on the responses that the Ipod connector is the older 30-pin type. ITS NOT ! Its the new Lightning connector. So if you have an older Ipod (like I do) better find a different unit, or find an adpater. Because this one is absolutely the Lighting-type plug.

Not sure. I have an iPod 1st gen, it won't charge it but it plays it. It does have an awesome sound.

I have no idea what generation my Ipod is. It is about 5 years old. It works fine with mine. Sorry I can't help with this question.

It appears to be an unshielded headphone wire type. I use the cable to connect a Bluetooth receiver to a stereo receiver so that I can use the Bluetooth wireless on my iPod Touch. It works without an issues.

It's a micro USB connection, so I would assume a phone charger with the same shape should work (micro USB became a standard for a lot of cell phones a couple years ago). I haven't tried it (cuz I can't find my iPod right now) but that's my best guess.

I am not sure which generation iPod touch you have but this worked with mine. It also worked with my nano and iPhone but did not charge my wife's iPhone 4 and her newer nano. This only works with the 30 pin connector so if you have a newer device this will not work because if you add the adapter it will not close with the device attached.

Krishna, It has the standard 32 pin connector - I have a 4th gen iPod. One concern with this system and it may only be my docking station - it shuts off after half an hour and this started happening 2 years after purchase. It is not a big deal to me and it has great sound from both my iPods (I also have one of the old small ones that is at least 6 years old). So I didn't answer your question exactly, but if the 5th gen has a 32 pin instead of the new lightning connection it will work. Kind regards, tom

I have been able to charge 3rd and 4th generation 32 GB iPods. I am using it successfully to charge iPhone 5s. So it should work on iPod 5th gen.

Great question! The ipod shuffles we offer are 4th Generation. Some people get them confused with the '5th Generation' but the truth is that no '5th Generation' exists for the ipod shuffle. Instead of rolling out a new generation when other members of the Ipod Family received their upgrades, a new colorway was introduced for the Ipod Shuffle. Our 4th Generation ipod shuffles are the latest model available. --Underwater Audio Customer Service

Connect it to the computer. Check more info in the iPod manual at http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1550/en_US/iPod_shuffle_4thgen_User_Guide.pdf

My iPod is old, not sure of the generation, but really old and it works with it. This speaker has the old pin size. Good luck!

It has the standard ipod charging port. Fits my touch and classic. If the shuffle is the same it should work.

I looked for one, but I counldn't find one. You'll just have to use the auxiliary input tha's on the back of it. Just buy a cable that has the same 1/8" plug on both ends, it looks like the plug on your head phones that you use with your iPod. Hope I was of some help Bonnie.

The audio system plugs into the ipod like any charger. If the ipod 5th gen has same charger port, then it should work. My son loves his system.
