Apple iPod shuffle Dock

Buy non-apple dock!

This dock is poorly designed. Mine failed so frequently (probably half the time) then mysteriously broke three weeks later. I am purchasing the Marware dock instead.

JUST FINE...

I've had my iPod Shuffle for over 3 yrs now, no problem with charging, download or the dock breaking. The only issue is with me:(...I've seemed to misplaced mine. I agree, if you take care of the dock, it will work just fine! My 9 yr old has had the shuffle the same amount of time as I have and hers also works fine!! TAKE CARE OF YOUR THINGS AND THEY WILL LAST LONGER!!!!

Its good, but stupid! Step on it, leave it out.. it'll break.
AND I don't wanna pay 30 bucks for a new one. Thats about as much as an ipod shuffle WITH a new cable is..

No quality

This doesn't deserve 1 star, unfortunately I have to give it a rating.
It didn't have it for even 9 months, & I'm not sure why it won't work.
If the cord costs $30, and the ipod that comes with it should be sold seperate as $30 too, if it costs
$60 together.

shuffle dock broken

I agree that the dock is flimsy. Mine is broken and it is going to cost $29 to replace it--ridiculous. One should be able to walk into an Apple Store and get a free replacement.

Broken stem on dock

Written by CU from Fort Collins

From time to time I travel for work and bring my iPod and laptop with me so I can work and listen to music and audiobooks. Perhaps actually moving the dock around is too tough on it (and I'm not taking proper care of my equipment) because the stem broke off. I pack the dock and laptop in my carry-on, but the dock is the only thing that has ever broken. iPods were designed, I thought, so that we could travel with them. Perhaps the docks were designed to break so we'd have to replace them, spending more money on the same piece of equipment. Shame on you, Apple, for your poor design. I also don't like that, even when the dock works, you can either charge the shuffle or listen to it, but not both. I preferred the old design.

Docking station - not good

Written by LS from Gainesville

My situation is almost identical to previous reviews on this topic...My iPod shuffle is no longer being recognized on my computer and it is now dead and will not charge. Consequently, I can't listen to any music or add any new music (not recognized on iTunes either). I think it is unfortunate to not be able to enjoy a product because it's accessories stop working. I love my shuffle so I am frustrated that I can't use it. Is there any solution to this problem? Up until this point, I would have strongly recommended the shuffle (2nd gen) but because of my frustration with charging it recently, I am hesitant in completely recommending it.
