Questions & Answers for Lightning to 30-pin Adapter

Yes!!!
I use this adapter with the I-Home AlarmClock/Radio dock and it works great. Once your I-pod touch 5th generation is connected it will prompt you to download a free app onto your device that will take about 60 seconds. Once you have done that it will work fine. The sound is great and uncorrupted. I would recommend this as its the best way to adapt this device.

Yep, it will.

All original Apple Chargers come without charging cables. So if you have an old but "original" Apple charger that definitely has an USB type output port, you can use either the old 30-pin docking type cable (other end is USB) or the new Lightning cable (other end is USB) with the aforementioned original Apple chargers. What counts is the power rating of the charger versus the Apple hardware you want to charge. However some new Apple models (such as iPhone 5, iPod Touch/5G, iPod Nano/7G, iPad Mini and iPad 4th Generation) carry the new Lightning connector and you definitely need to use an original Apple cable (USB to Lightning) bcz. this is a "chipped" cable and ordinary 3rd party cables mostly will (should) not work!... This Lightning to 30-pin Adapter is also "chipped", so you can connect either an original Apple (USB to 30-pin) cable, or some other 3rd party (OEM) USB to 30-pin cable, or say a charger having a fixed cable (with he 30-pin socket at the output) to this adapter to charge your iPad Mini. No sweat!...

I just bought this for my (UK) December 2011 VW Golf R Mk6 and it works fine with the MDI cable. The same 'full' functionality I had with the 4S (although says wont stream video, but I don't do that). As per a few other reviewers, a bit annoying that most cases need to be removed to connect it, but otherwise works a treat.
Hope that helps.

Yes. I have the Ipod Touch 5th generation and I am ordering it as we speak.

I use this adapter with the I-Home AlarmClock/Radio dock and it works great. One your device is connected it will prompt you to download a free app from store onto your device. I use mine with i-pod 5th generation.
