It froze on you. You have to press both center and up arrow buttons together and hold for about 10-12 seconds. Once done, it will reset and work fine afterward. Hope this helps you, and that you still have the ipod.

Esteban thanks a bunch!!!! I looked everywhere because my ipod was too loud and the radio wasn't working. After I pressed the center and up arrow (menu) button for 12 seconds everything worked!!! I thought I had a bad ipod!! THANKS

Change the sound format until you find compatible sound your looking for there's a button that does this. At least yours is still working if I plug in four things to charge it spazzes out and quits or everything plugged in starts shooting me messages or turning themselves on and off and the second alarm stopped all together I'd wish I'd known plus the sound quality even with the format changed still creates mad reverb when pushed too loud. Hope this helps. If you just got it ID return it ASAP... good luck

I use mine with an Ipod, not an Iphone, so I don't know if my results will be the same as yours. The volume control on my headphones will only allow volume to go as high as inputted on the Ipod and won't go higher unless I raise the volume physically on the Ipod. Easy fix, just have the volume turned up on your phone before you start and you can always adjust down with the headphones. This has never been a problem for me. I only need the volume to be at approximately 1/4 level on my Ipod to get enough out of the headphones, and even with that I have to adjust the volume down on the earphones, even while using them in noisy areas.

I have retuned 3 nano's for this problem. The nano sometimes doesn't recognize that the headphones are plugged in. The volume contol then changes the volume of the speaker but the headphones get full volume. If you cover the headphones you will be able to hear the nano speaker change volume with click wheel control. I called Apple and they say this is a hardware problem but said there weren't many people reporting the problem and I was just having bad luck. This happened less when I used different headphones, so the problem may be with the earbuds that come with the nano.

i came here to ask same thing. love the speaker, really loud but battery went bad really fast and now i can only get about an hour use before it goes dead :'( and from others say i guess it's just a matter of time before it doesn't work at all.

I recd mine in the mail today and the charger part doesn't seem to work. It doesn't seem that the USB fits correctly into the charger and the jack doesn't fit firmly into the transmitter. Just doesn't seem like it is the right size. Is that possible? Or am I doing something wrong? It is not charging my ipod while transmitting. HELP?

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 am so glad to read this! I bought my son a nano last year, and have returned it three times. It needs returned again, but I'm positive it's out of warranty now. The issue is that it randomly stops playing some songs - his library went from 250+ songs that would play to less than 50. This has happened so frequesntly that we're thoroughly disgusted. The 40G iPod video we have has no such problems!

same problem... at low volumes with ipod touch 2nd gen. it has a terribly obnoxious static... nothing i do seems to correct the problem. using line in, it sounds great, but that kind of defeats the purpose of the system.

volume control is excellent. I usually turn my ipod volume up and make all my adjustments via the head phone volume control dial. I have never had a problem with unexpected volume changes even when exercising and jostling head phone line all over the place. And volume gets quite loud and quite soft with no alteration in sound quality or crispness as far as I m concerned.

I don't have an issue with the bass setting on mine. Have you checked the EQ on your iPod? Make sure it's not on Super Bass. Or, you can make sure you lighten up the bass setting.

There is a small speaker symbol on the console - every time you push it, the volume goes up. I plug in my droid and listen to the music I have downloaded. I had the volume up to 12 tonight and it was plenty loud, even turned it down a little (other speaker symbol) - Hope this helps!

I haven't had any such problems... my only thoughts would be you do have it plugged in on the input side, not the output side. Bluetooth; it's not linked to another Bluetooth source. When I would grab ours if it was within range of say my daughters Ipod and still linked to that Ipod then I could not access it until we unlinked it. Hope this helps.

I don't know - this unit stopped working last year. It was my son's and we found the volume was just automatically go from whatever setting to zero after about 30 seconds of playing. And you couldn't get the volume to change unless you powered it off & on again. BTW, he just got a iPod Touch 5th gen - and he loves it.

I tried three docks and each one of them had a static noise that was very annoying in certain songs. Now, I don't understand when you say that ipod, connected to the aux, doesn't make any static noise? My sansa player or a laptop doesn't produce any static noise in my earphones or other speakers but it does on this dock. So, it must be the AUX port on this dock that is not functioning properly.

You may have the small switch on the top in lock position? small button on top needs to be in the unlocked position to turn the iPod off. That switch is on there so when you are traveling the settings are locked so it wont change songs or change volume etc........ good luck

Ours stopped working correctly in the first month we had it. My son uses it as speakers only...turns up volume through his ipod.
