I believe old kind. I have it in Florida, and I am currently out of state, and am going on memory

Would say "no" --- first off, it does not work very well --- but the one I have only has the old 30-pin dock connector (older ipods)

No. And note this has an older 30 pin connector, not a newer lightning pin connector.

No. The 5th generation iPod uses the small "Lightning" connector. This dock uses the old 30-pin connector. It might work with an adapter, but I haven't tried that.

The docking is for the wider 32 pin config. If you have the newer thin 10 pin "lightning", you will need an adapter. If you do, some of the bargain one piece units work only for data and not audio. Also, if you use bumpers on your iPod, you will have to remove it in order to seat properly. I would suggest going with the apple cable adapter to avoid this issue. Hope this helps.

You would need the lightning to 30 pin adaptor that Apple makes to use the dock but you will be able to use the Bluetooth which would be better anyway.

I don't have an iPhone, but I do have an iPod with an old style connector and it works great.

The last-gen proprietary Dock connectors for 4s is different from the new lightning ones for the 5, so no.

There are docks (for charging and some with speakers) with the OLD style 30-pin Apple dock/charge connector. The newer Apple mobile devices (iPad 4 and up, iPhone 5, etc.) have a new-style "Lightning" digital connector. If you want to use the NEWER i-devices with an OLDER base station, charger, cord, accessory, charging dock or speaker dock --- you would need a physical, electrical, and DIGITAL ADAPTER. This one seems to work for CHARGING and SYNC but NOT for audio (speakers) or video (Movies, YouTube, etc.) SO if you want to use it for CHARGE/SYNC to an old-style connector, it works.

Its the 30 pin. My kid uses an iPod touch 4 which is a thirty pin, NOT the lightning adapter.

I've found my dock is too flimsy, and so when I put my iphone on the dock it leans back and doesn't play anymore. It does play the mini, but it is touchy. I have found that a pig tail 30 pin cord seems more durable and plays as well or better. My new ipod nano didn't have a 30 pin connection, and so I bought an adapter, but it didn't work. Not going to buy any more docks.

The dock is compatible with the "old style" IPhone multipin connector, NOT the connector that you find on the new IPhone 6 and current mode ipads. Unfortunately I don't recall the connector which was on IPHONe 4

It has the old 30-pin connector. I use a 30-pin to Lightning adapter for use with my iPhone 5.

the dock is not compatible with iPod5 (old connector) but there is an AUX IN that you could use to hook up.

No. It is for the older connectors. It is no longer sold by Sonos and therefore not updated to the newer connector. Charging is better handled by Apple chargers. I retired mine since it is not necessary in order to play music on your ipod through Sonos. The latest sonos software allows this to happen without the dock wirelessly.

Well, I have an old iPod and it works just fine. But this has a 30-pin dock and I don't know if it works with newer iPods, iPhones, and iPads. Here's something I found on Wikipedia (so it must be true!). I don't know if you could get an adapter if you have a newer iPod -- you may want to look for a newer dock if that's the case, since the device may not sit upright in the dock with an adapter. Apple Dock connector The Apple dock connector is a proprietary 30-pin connector that was common to most Apple mobile devices (iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, 1st through 4th generation iPod Touch, iPad, iPad 2, and iPad (3rd generation)) from its introduction with the 3rd generation iPod in 2003 until the Lightning connector was released in September 2012. Originally, the Apple dock connector carried USB, FireWire, some controls and line-level audio outputs.[citation needed] As the iPod changed, so did the signals in the dock connector. Video was added to the connector. FireWire was phased out of the iPods, which led to a discontinuity in usage of the dock connector. As a result of the popularity of Apple's iPod and iPhone devices using the connector, a cottage industry was created of third-party devices that could connect to the interface.[1]

I read somewhere in the description that this device does not support the newest iPhone and iPod models that use a Lightning Connector ~hope this helps : )
