Hi, the only way to play music form your iPod to this Sony Home Theater System is to use a stereo mini plug going to your iPod and the other end is an RCA Y-audio jack that will go at the back of the main unit (L/R audio in). The cable is called stereo mini to rca y-audio. Hope this helps. -Ely

I have the same system and have no problems playing my ipod through all the speakers. There must be something wrong in your settings for that port? I guess I never changed anything when I hooked up my ipod.

It is not necessary to turn on the TV to enter the DMPORT mode to output your iPod/iPhone music with this system. Shuffle on my iPod Touch works fine with this system... I also want to state that this system does not have a display for your iPod/iPhone. You have to change tracks manually from your iPod/iPhone which is a hassle.

I use the Aux In port to connect my IPod to the system. I then push the Source button to select the IPod and I can play my IPod through the speaker system.

Hi K. Nabeta, there are two ways for connecting your iPod. One is via the audio in cable (3.5 mm jack) to the headphone jack of your iPod. Secondly is via Bluetooth connection (if your iPod support it). -Ely

No, this is for an optical audio connection which is digital. Your iPod is an analog connection.

Mine was broken, it never worked. You suppose to just put in ipod mode and it will start playing. I chucked my broken devise in the garbage. I regret ordering it only throw Amazon.com but it was the same price as in the store 9.99.

I actually don't really use ipod now because you can use the Bluetooth to your cellphone. You can also take the Y connector and hook it to your tv.

either. I plugged it into the headphone jack on my portable cd player and also thru my HDTV audio output (red & white jack) using an adapter cable that comes with it. Just can't seem to get it to work with my IPOD!!!!

The unit has a dedicated iPod cable connector and there is also an Aux input. I guess you could play the satalite unit via the Aux input? I hope this helps.

If you use a link cable from the speaker of the IPOD to the Speaker Dock, and insert it into the port of the docking station on the back, then push the input button on the Speaker Dock, that should work. (It is the same cable/wire you use to connect your IPOD to a car's stereo system.) There is a port on the docking station that allows you to hook up other devices to the docking station and use its' speakers. Otherwise, I don't know.

Yes, buy the 1/8" end patch cord and plug into the Aux. Your IPod will play fine

If you have an ipod video it's easy. Select videos then go to settings. Then select the TV out function. After that menu back to your videos. Select one. Now instead of playing on your 2 inch screen, it's playing on your alternative output. This is the same setting you use for any av cable you may plug into your Ipod video.

Yes, you can play your music from your iPod, iPad, or iPhone, or any music device that has Bluetooth, stereo cables (which you could use from the headphone jack of your iPod), or optical cables (which won't work on an iPod).

You have to get the lightening adapter and place on the docking station.I play the latest ipod touch with the adapter.
