  • Could anyone tell me where to buy the plastic adaptors for the 2nd gen nano? I've lost mine and need a replacement.

    There isnt an adaptor for 2nd gen. You can get it to work but it is very very fiddly and hardly seems worth it. I returned this item because of that
    There is one in the box your ipod came in. And you can use one of the video adaptors. looks quite good. maybe a bit loose if you nock it but its fine, thats what i was using untill i realised i could use the one in my box. The remote is also a good feature, it doesnt say on the site but does on the box. took me a while to find it. neally threw it out :p
    Things that are free in life are great, well most of the time :beer:

    Is anyone using this as a radio rather than just the ipod?

    I cannot get one station to tune in. It's sat next to my £2.99 analogue clock radio which works just fine.

    I am very disappointed as my daughter asked what I wanted for Christmas as she didn't want to get me rubbish and I told her I really wanted this.

    As far as I'm concerned it's the biggest pile of sh1te around and I would rather have had £23 worth of socks.

    Hi - sorry but can you help a technophobe here :

    The only way I can play my shuffle through the speakers is connecting the shuffle to the unit via the provided short cable and pressing the Aux button.

    My question then is ' What is the shuffle USB port on the unit for ?' Can I use the port to charge the shuffle direct and/or play the shuffle through the unit speakers ?

    Cheers

    I think yours might just be broken. How about taking it back and getting another one?!

    Are you talking about the new iPod Shuffle or the old one?
