iPhone 3G Not Working with All iPhone Accessories

  July 15th, 2008



WE RECOMMEND

All is not well in Apple land with some buyers of the new iPhone 3G. Many of the iPhone 3G buyers already own an iPod or the first generation iPhone and have multiple accessories to go along with it from speakers to docks. Many of these new iPhone 3G owners are finding that their pricy accessories won't work with the iPhone 3G.

Users have complained that many accessories that worked with the original iPhone, like the Bose SoundDock, won't operate with the iPhone 3G. Exactly why the accessories won't work with the new iPhone 3G isn't known. Some speculate it's because the original iPhone would work with USB or FireWire connectivity to accessories and the new iPhone 3G is USB exclusively. If you have an iPhone 3G, be sure to buy accessories like the Macally PowerLink that specifically say they work with the iPhone 3G.
