Has anyone tried to charge their Ipod Touch thru this? Did it charge and transfer data ok?

This is not a direct answer, but my iPhone 5s charges and xfers with it just fine.

I haven't used it to charge anything as of yet, but transferring data is perfect. I really like the sleek design.

Since this charger connects using the USB connection end, it should work for you, but I use it for my iPAD and iPhone, so I'm unable to verify how it works for an ipod of any type since I have not used it with an ipod.

I think the latest iPods have a new charger, that won't fit. If you get a converter, I am not sure it will work--never tried. I just keep an old iPod on all of the time.

I can't speak to that specific iPod, but with an apple cable, I haven't had any issues with units that I need to chase with the old 30 pin connector or the new lightning connector. Same applies to mini USB. The 2A ports charge an iPad pretty quickly

Yes, the cable charges whatever you have connected to it. However, the cable will only seem to play my ipod and not music from my iphone. If you plug your iphone to the cable, it will charge, but seems not to be compatible with playing music from the phone library.

Ive used it with an Iphone 4S and Iphone 3GS, i dont see why it would not work with an Ipod Touch. Also it does not need an app from the app store. Hope this helps.

It worked perfectly with my 2nd generation IPod Touch. I just hope I can get it to work with my new 3rd generation touch. It also works with my 3rd generation IPod touch.

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.

I didn't have any issues charging it,I had Iphone 5 it worked fine, now with Iphone 6 plus also it works fine, if it doesn't work just send it back for replacement.

i have charged an ipod touch 4th gen and iphone 4 too. I dont know if the ipad mini has lightning conector, if it has the old one you wont have any trouble charging it.

just for the record, i owned one of these docks and a 2g ipod touch. It would play music just fine. It would not charge the ipod, so that made it just about useless for me.

Anything that uses that connection. My iPad 4 and my old iPod touch both charge with it. Next pay I plan to get another one to keep in my truck and two for my newer iPod touch which uses the new connection.

it is bluetooth so it should work and there is a USB in the back that i also use to charge my ipod ipad iphone with. So if your ipod is bluetooth then it should be fine

Yes, however it claims to charge the Ipod but from my experience it doesn't.

Thanks for your suggestions, Bubba. I did try to charge it from my computer as well without success. I've had the iPod for a little over a year and probably didn't use it enough. The functionality of a GPS would have increased its usefulness to me immensely, but adding the cost of a battery replacement to this cradle makes this a rather expensive move. To be sure, I'll follow your tip and try a different cable, but I'm not overly optimistic at this point.Edit: The USB cable *was* the culprit. Got a new one today and just ordered my GPS cradle...

For anyone that is unclear, please read my above post from 8 months ago. This WILL WORK just fine with the iPod Touch 3G as well as ANY iPod or iPhone. I have been using mine for the past 8 months with my iPod Touch 3G with no problems or issues of any kind. It's an excellent product!
