iHome iH6: The set/time wheel doesn’t work. I’m not able to adjust the time.

Mon, 30 Dec 2024 22:04:53 -0700

Admittedly, my iH6 was very dusty, but even after blowing out the dust, I’m unable to adjust the time. I spin the dial and nothing happens.

Speakers work great, volume wheel works much better after the dusting, but…

I tried taking the back off to try and clean the dust from under the wheel, but the speaker was in the way. Is there a workaround?

My power adaptor that I use for my iHome iH6 won't work after 2 weeks of not using it. All it does is shine orange on the buttons on the top and act like it's only running on batteries.

iHome: My Ihome will not keep a charge

Fri, 28 Jul 2023 21:04:16 -0700

Hello,

I have an iHome, not sure of the model number, but it is wavy and changes colors. I absolutely love it. It makes me happy :) However, it is not keeping a charge and it will not stay on when I turn it on and it shuts off when someone walks in from of it. Is there a battery that I can replace? Would you know what the problem is and how to fix it.

iHome iH8BR: Clock won't show the right time

Mon, 22 May 2023 19:43:44 -0700

Hello! I have this ihome and the clock won't stay at the right time. I can set it manually but minutes later the ihome clock stop following the time. Like, right now its 19:21 and the ihome clock is showing 18:46. I've been changing the clock to the right time but it always gets later and later. I've already changed the battery to new ones but the problem persists. Do you guys know what's happening? Is there some problem inside the ihome? Sorry for my English, it isn't my mother tongue, hope you guys could understand my problem.
