Most likely. The only reason that I hesitate on a straight "yes" is that I'm wondering if the thickness (which isn't thick at all - less than 1/4 of an inch) might stop the ipod from making full contact with the docking port or if the arm band might get in the way. However, I use mine in a boom box and just take it out of the case. It's easy to do and the case is very durable. In fact it is so easy to take it out of the case that I would be comfortable telling you to buy it whether you can put it in the docking station or not. The case has an opening at the bottom for such a connection. Hope that this helps. Happy New Year! Most likely.

I take it out. Really easy to slip out through the window, and slip back in.

Yes, even with the cover on the port is easy to access.I usually charge mine overnight with the case closed.

Not sure about docks. But keep in mind, the port hole for this case has a small mouth opening and the material is thick. It could potentially impede the power connector from being fully seated in the charging port.

Yes, the cover needs to be removed prior to charging it on the docking station, or using it on the docking station with the keyboard. You can also use the propped case/cover with the keyboard up close to it.

It is possible to charge it with the lower half of the case attached. You just need to be careful while opening the little flap to the side. It can totally be done.

You have to hold it. Then it should charge. If not try charging the case. Still not working return it for a refund

The cases shouldn't hinder &#65279;the device being placed into a dock. There's an opening on &#65279;the bottom of them cases that allow you to attach either a charger cable, or place it in a dock.

Yes. As Steven mentioned, the docking station has it's own power port, so you won't have to rely on the power port on the laptop.

Yes you can leave the case on and charge it. My daughter has the case and it never given her a problem in any way. Other than her uncle wanting to steal it from her. :)

No. The charging case is used when you need emergency power and are charge from a USB port.

No, you can't. We got one for my daughter and you have to take the case off to charge. Very annoying. Cute case, but hate taking it out of case to charge.

You can use any micro USB cable to charge that case. It does work. Does it take longer? I don't really know because I never didn't evaluation, however I would guess yes probably a little longer but it still works

You'll probably need to take it out of it case to dock and charge on top but it has a USB slot on the back you can plug a charger in. We have two and that's how my daughter does it.

There is a docking port with a USB connection. When you put it in the port you charge the battery.

Yes, it can ve used independently and can be recharged from a USB port.The docking station works only when connected to a USB port.

Yes you can charge it. It has a little flap that flips open to expose the port. There's a little cut out for the volume and switch on the side and a spot to hit the lock screen button on top.

Yes. The case is very thin and does not interfere with that at all. I don't dock mine at all anymore because I have extra batteries that I swap when needed.
