Does the Apple Remote Control work with IPOD TOUCH (1st Gen)
Hi there !
I have an old ipod touch (8GB, 1st gen.) and put it on a JBL On Stage 200ID (which creates the best sound for a good price, by the way) to have a nice radio and mp3 player for at home.
Now I would like to have a remote control and was wondering if the Apple Remote

Thank you for telling me.
And have a good weekend.
Christine.

I have a iMac, which comes with a remote.
Would the computer's remote control the iPod too, or are the remotes for iMac and iPod incompatible ?

"The Apple Remote requires the iPod Universal Dock and any iPod with a dock connector or any iPhone."
So you would have to have the iPod on the Apple iPod Universal Dock for it to work. It wouldn't work directly through the iPod.
