The iHome iP99 will. It's designed for iPhone but will work for iPod Nano 4th Gen.

The Emerson Research Clock Radio will charge it. Of the five different devices that I own (totaling perhaps $300 dollars!) it is the only one which WILL.- CB

Ya you just need an aux cord for it. There is a USB port for it but it didn't charge mine could be different for yours depending on your iPod generation.

I use an iPod touch (not sure which generation, it's a few years old), and it works great. If you have the newest generation iPod/iPhone it may not be able to be plugged in, since Apple changed over to its new lightning dock from the old 30-pin style dock.Overall this is a great boat radio. I use it on a boat in Qatar, and it stands up against the extreme heat, dust, and salt water environment here better than any other boat radio I have used.

I don't know. I've never tried to use the alarms/clock on it; I always use my phone. although, if you could set an alarm on your ipod, I think it would play through the dock

iHome iH9 Alarm Clock Speaker System with Dock for iPod (Black)Just another data point, I agree that the FM quality is very poor, and I'm having the same problem reported by others with static and noise when using an iPod Touch 2G. It works fine with the iPod Nano 1G. I'm waiting to hear from customer service.

Well the one I have isn't compatible with the ipod touch 4 ( if by compatible you mean charge it otherwise it played music for me but I think the 5th has a different charging port than the older models)

I honestly have no idea, it plays my iPod nano 3rd gen just fine. I have seen a few videos where other people used the iPod classic on the mcr-040 which is just like this one but discontinued. The user guide says it only supports the iPod nano 2nd through 7th gen, the iPod touch 2nd through 6th generation. It is however compatible with all I phones and all iPads, that is if the newer models of the iPhone, iPad, and iPod nano and touch use the USB port on the front of the unit because of the lightning connector. Hope this helps.

Fussy About Clock Radios,If you are looking for an iPod that does not need headphones then I suggest looking out for an iPod Touch. As far as I know they are the only type of iPod that headphones are not a needed item, but the sound quality drops to only okay.iPod docks do have speakers. They also charge your iPod (depending on what type of dock). Some docks can even function as an alarm clock. I hope this helped.Godspeed!~SWWPD

I have an IPod Touch 4th Generation and it plays music on my but doesn't charge it. My guess is it wouldn't charge your IPhone, but it might play music.

You can use the headphone jack that conects the clock to the ipod, but it will not conect to the radio.

Michael&gt; will the 4G work in the ICF-CS10iPBLK? Sasha_&gt; Please give me a moment while I get this information for you. Sasha_&gt; Thanks for waiting, Michael. Sasha_&gt; The iPod Touch 4G is compatible with ICF-CS10iPBLK Clock Radio. Michael&gt; are you positive? Sasha_&gt; Yes, I have checked the information in the Manual of the Clock Radio. That was directly from Sony support.

The version we got only has a line in, not a line out. Ours does not have the Ipod charge on top, but I think that was an option when we bought it. It has a USB charge and a "Line in" that does NOT work with headphones. The book says it is for a 3.5 mm line-in jack to play music from phones, iPods, MP3 players, and other audio devices that are not bluetooth enabled, alarm clock, USB port in the back to charge your phones or other devices. BTW, my husband loves it and I love the way it looks. We looked many years to find a lamp with an alarm radio!

Not sure how it works. They are suppose to be sending me another. When I went to charge it, it had "no battery" in the device so I could charge it. I'm thinking it is just a MP3 player. Not an ipod so you wouldn't be able to get iTunes.

When I first plugged it into the On Stage my iPod said it couldn't charge with this device, but it wouldn't play either. I've tried plugging it back in after finding these posts, and there's no message as before; On Stage (or iPod) doesn't acknowledge at all. It's as seated in the port as it possibly can be without worrying I'll wobble the iPod and break it. My mini-iPod still works just fine on it as always. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I'll give that a shot. I've noticed that they only claim to support the 5th gen and newer Nano, as well as the iPhone/iTouch. I was using a 4th gen Nano and an old classic (at that time just called the iPod). Now I have a 5th gen Nano, and it seems to work? I'll report back after more testing.
