You have an old version of the Bose dock. You can go to the Bose store and get an adapter for the new I pod.Some docks come with 2-3 different type of adapter to patch the generation gap.

Sounds like it's either a problem with the connector on the iPod or on the dock. To find our which see if it works okay on another dock - if you know anybody with one our text it on a demo model in a store. Or it could also be the plastic dock adapter - take our the adapter and try docking without the adapter.
If it is a different model iPod then it is likely the Bose dock does not support the newer model. Quite often changes such as from iPhone 3 to iPhone 4, Bose had to release a new dock. The speakers and music will still always work, but the support will be limited for charging. Unfortunately you will not be able to fix this, other than upgrade the dock, or go back to your old ipod.
If it is brand new. It is under warranty. Go back to the store where it was purchased and tell them the problem. They should replace it with another
new one. Have them show you how to use it on
all of the functions on your Bose Docking Station.

If you get sound through the headphone jack save your ipods life and just use it through the jack. I have replaced numerous motherboards on ipods played on docks. they just don;t handle the charging and playing very well whether it's heat or just the wrong voltage I am not sure. But my first question to a customer is have you played it on a dock. I would stay away from the dock
Well with a dead battery it is always best to get it replaced. However, your docking station, or a wall charger, or computer, should all power on the ipod..
If you are interested in purchasing a new battery for your ipod, I would suggest going to the website listed below to do so. It is fairly affordable. Around 45.99

Check the power in the back, and check the connector, where the ipod plugs in. Usually that part breaks. Or you have to buy a new part from ridax ($50 +) But I'm currently buying broken sounddocks, so if youwant t
