I bought this as a gift. Will an Ipod Touch 2nd Generation work on the dock, or do I need an aux. cable (not included as stated)?

I'm not sure what type if plug the 2nd gen takes. The 4th generation with the wider slot for plug fits. My iPhone 5 does not dock. I use aux cable from best buy. It's not a big deal to have to use a cable. The speakers are really great. It's worth the hassle.

Aux cable works fine, but won't keep your phone charged. When using my ipod, I don't notice a huge difference in sound quality between 30 pin connection and the aux cable. Sound quality should be fine.

This product comes with three connectors. The first is a USB connector: Using it is not required, but provides charging capabilities to your iPod. The second is the iPod connector: This plugs into the bottom of the iPod and allows for Line Out quality sound. This is required if you want sound from your iPod device. The third cord is an AUX out cord (sorry don't have the length off the top of my head). This must be plugged into something for the sound to be produced. So, short answer: No, an AUX jack is NOT required. Long answer: Unless you just want to charge your iPod, you will need some sound input port on your radio/stereo/speakers ect. What kind of device are you trying to use this with?

Yes, there is also an input with an optional dock called DMPort. I plug in my iPods to it to play music & charge as well. The older model, anyway...

I haven't been able to find it either. And my Ipod doesn't work with the dock, don't know why. Have to use the cable instead.

if you connect your ipod or iphone to the docking station - yes. I'm not sure what it displays if you use the AUX cable - as I have not used that feature.

No because it isn't an AUX cable, and that is a cable that moves sound. I bought this cable and it works great;Belkin Retractable Auxiliary Cable for iPod and iPhone

You would need an adapter cord. The dock is not for lightning style interface plug.

Are you starting the music playing BEFORE you put the ipod on the dock ? I have an ipod touch gen 2 that plays on the Altec im 600 with the dock adapter that came with the touch 2 , I get a messege on the touch screen saying the device won't charge on the im600 put will play... I ordered a im600usb from Amazon but the box said im600 and I returned it as wrong item. I'm waiting for Amazon to send the im600usb when they get it in stock.

Hi there! This Sony Home Receiver doesn't have a regular port or dock for connecting you iPhone/iPod. -Ely

Hello Marion. The TuneTalk Stereo should work with your iPod Touch 2nd Generation.

This is true, only the receiver works with the 2nd generation touch (a pain) - however works well. The charging for 2nd generation Touch doesn't work with charging devices made for other ipods...

its compatible with the older ipod and iPhone models. If you have a newer version of ipod touch or iPhone 5 and you want it to plug it directly into the dock you will need to get a 30 pin adapter.

I'm not 100% sure but it should work. You also have the option to connect via an aux cable but the dock does not work.

Will work easily with any Apple iPod or itouch that has the 30 pin connector. Our old I touch works via blue tooth as well, just like my iPhone 5 works. Best/fullest sound is with docking, but blue tooth is not bad and is so convenient!

You won't be disappointed Christmas morning. It docks fine. I believe the docking problem was with the 4G iPhone which apparently needs an adapter that isn't included. The iPod Touch 4G, however, readily docks to this unit.

I was wondering if this would work with the IPod shuffle 2nd Generation as far as the docking and charging is concerned..anyone know for sure?
