Totally agree such a drag to find docking that I bought will not charge. Bought one that is prtable as travel a lot and no good.Applemust lose a lot of business. I was just about to spend serious money on an upas and an apple mac but wont now will go for MS . They must be open to litigation for all the 3rd party docks people have bought which now only partly function

I fucking hate Apple for this.
I have two awesome soundstations at home, and I can charge my Ipod 2g on them, but when I play Music, it comes out of the ipod speakers.

And when I hear, that Apple is selling 30€ adapters for this, I could fist Steve Jobs up his ass!!

I tried a fix called resupported, but it’s only meant for Video adapters…

Fuck you Apple.

-> sorry for the bad language ukmac.net, but I am really frustrated.

I agree with you that is a shame.
But apple shows us during this last years that they always try to trick there customers to make more money on those who doesn t know about technologie and hacking !!
While it is the only way to make an apple device work normaly like anybody else devices !!!
Apple should find a regular and honest way to make money and don t hide the informations from the public

Stupid ipod!!! I was bought an ipod touch 2nd gen last year and it has been nothing but a hassle since the day I got it. I couldn’t get it to charge via laptop, bought about 20 different chargers (including numerous genuine apple chargers) before I eventually got it charged. It will not play via my previous speakers or stereo system and it positively refuses to work with my iTrip. What is the point of spending this much money on a new ipod when you have to fork out 100s to buy all the “new” stereos to go with them again. What am I supposed to do with my old speakers, numerous chargers etc??????? Add to the growing rubbish dumps??? Apple really pulled out all the stops on this scam!

Yes, take it back and get a different brand. It’s highly deceptive to put in a “control chip” and not warn the customers that their existing infrastructure is about as useless as a horse at a gas station.

Oh, and you can buy a “hack” device that pretends to be a legitimate charger which surely means they’ll DMCA it out of existence. I’ve had too many people have me try to get their stuff working only to find out that it fails by design. ;(

Have iPod touch 32gb. I too cannot charge my iPod with an older wall charger made by apple. Now it won’t even get recognized on a mac that I have been using to charge it but it is a hassle. Thought wall charger would be good for home and on trips. Docking stAtion reviews are of no help. Love the iPod just want power!!!!!
