I bought an adaptor wire that had the old ipod connection one end ( 30 pin ??????) and the new iphone 11 connection the other end and used it to connect the bose station to my iphone 11. but still the music wont come out of the bose.
what more do I need to do ??

if you look at the pin out of the 2 connectors
connector-pinout-for-apple-ipod-iphone-dock-imageevent.jpg (495×640) (yumpu.com)

then it seems like it would require some active conversion rather than an passive cable adaptor
I got a couple of these APPLE iPhone Lightning Dock - Gold | Synigo
they output 3.5mini jack female I connected them to some computer speakers worked fine
apple don't sell them themselves anymore for some reason
I've never been able to verify that the lightning to pin30 adaptors works for anything but charging and sync with computers,
this is the kit my old ipod slotted into. its this I am trying to connect. the connector works because when it is plugged in it charges the phone. but no sound comes out
you might just be right. I charges ok but no sound comes out.
Helpful Apple .....not !!
thanks but what does that mean ?
Do I need to do something on the iPhone to make the sound go out of the cable and into the bose for amplification ?
connecting iphone 11 to an old bose player with an old iPod connection
