Auvio fm transmitter/charger not compatible with iPhone4 suddenly??

Ever since I updated to iOS5 my phone will not play music or charge with any of my accessories. The only way to charge my phone is with the USB cord that came with my phone... Very irritating since I've spent a bunch of money on these accessories. Is there anything I can do to make them work or is this another Apple issue I have to "wait" out??

I have just been down this route.
I had an old Belkin Tunecast II that I used with my Ipod Touch. When I got my 3GS, I thought I'd get an Iphone compatible one to compliment it and avoid the nag message telling me "this accessory is not compatible with the Iphone..blah blah..airplane mode...blah"
Anyway, with the old Tunecast, you just slotted the Ipod Touch in place and there were several interchangeable supporting cradles...easy.
The new Belkin is a pain and requires you not only to slot the Iphone into the cradle, but also insert a lead into the headset jack!! What a backwards step!
The Griffin was fine for a day..then stopped working! The Ipod was playing, but nothing was being transmitted to the stereo.
So, I've gone back to the old Tunecast! I've removed the cradle and my Iphone sits quite happily resting against the back of the unit. I get the message about a non-compatible accessory, but it transmits and charges the phone fine.
So until something better comes out..I'm sticking with "old faithful"

  • "charging not compatible with this device" after IOS 4.3 update.

    I have a belkin car adaptor that I have been using for some time, after installing IOS 4.3 I've been getting the error message saying it isn't compatible and so it refuses to charge my phone, this is important as I use it to charge my iPhone as I use it as a GPS device, i dont see how this problem has come about as prior to IOS 4.3 it charged perfectly!
    Could I have some advice on this and fingers cross that apple reads and acts upon this forum!

    I've also had this issue with charging since upgrading to iOS 4.3.1  Actually upgrading to 4.3.2 and then to 4.3.3 has not solved the charging problem.  Here's my story:
    I own an iPhone 3GS and started noticing error messages with 4.3.1 such as "charging is not supported with this accessory".  I've tried differnent USB cables and chargers (Apple and non-Apple), hooking up to computers and wall outlets.  I get the same message.  As a last resort I restored my device as a new phone (syncing works oddly) and erasing everything.  This did not help the situation.
    So yesterday I took my 3GS to the Apple Store and they were kind enough to replace my iPhone with a new (refurbished) 3GS under AppleCare. That was awesome - I love Apple. However, that didn't fix the problem
    So now I'm not sure what to do accept wait for a new iOS version and hope Apple addresses this problem.  Anyone else have a similar experience?

  • IPod AC charger not compatible with iPhone?  Overheating!

    I was charging my iPhone with an old AC adapter that uses the firewire cable from my iPod back when they shipped with them, and I don't know what was going on, but the iPhone became scorching hot to the touch. I checked the AC adapter specs, and they are definitely different than the iPhone AC adapter.
    Does anyone know definitively whether or not old AC chargers are unsafe? Seems like there should be a warning or something. If this wasn't the cause of the heat, I need to figure out what else is wrong, because I can't imagine the temperature was within normal operating limits.

    There isn't a version that will work with iOS previous to 5, according to this Apple article.

    I also am not able to up/download mail even though my Provider is adamant the setting are correct...
    IOS 7.1.2
    would appreciate help with these issues :-)

    However after part of the Itune update completed a message came up on the screen
    saying   "The feature you are trying to use is on a net work resource that is unavailable.
    Which particular .msi file does the message go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

  • I get message "your Ipod is not compatible with attached accessory"

    I recently purchased a Belkin TuneBase FM for iPod to use in my car as a mount, FM transmitter, and car charger. After installing it into my car's power outlet and inserting my Ipod Video into it, I get the message "your Ipod is not compatible with the attached accessory". It does charge up my iPod battery, however my iPod screen does not display the FM frequency that the Belkin TuneBase is transmitting on and so I cannot adjust the frequency to get it to work. I have the latest version of Ipod firmware installed, I tried restoring my iPod to factory settings, nothing is working.

    think that fm accessory is not compatible with 5g ipods . just check it in www.apple.com

  • HT1766 Error message: "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone.  Delete the backup for this iPhone, then try again." But how do I delete the backup?

    Error message when attempting to backup up iPhone4S to Mac says "iTunes could not back up the iphone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone.  Delete the backup for this iPhone, then try again." But how do I delete the backup? Can't find answer to that anywhere.

    We had this problem after upgrading to iOS 8.       The iPhone 5 would not backup either to the cloud or to the computer.   Backup always ended with an error message.
    Long story short, with the help of iFunBox ( which I used to make manual backups of some important iPhone data files ), I discovered two games that
    would crash iFunBox.      They were not important games for us, so I didn't try to isolate the offending data files.     And I deleted the two games from the iPhone.
    Apparently these two games conflicted with iOS 8 just as they did with iFunBox.      The next backup without those games was then successful.
    I backed up to both the Mac and the cloud.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT1349 I need to restore back to 1.0 on my Nano as iTunes upgraded automatically to 1.2 and it's not compatible with my car device. Where can i download the ispw and ispw.signature files for 1.0 ?

    I don't think it's possible if you are stuck in recovery mode but I may be wrong...
    Since your device qualifies for iOS 8(.1), that is the version that will be downloaded/restored to the iPad.
    I do know that you can restore your iPad (from backup & as new) and keep the same iOS version if you restore using the iPad itself under Settings/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings but since you can't access this because your stuck in recovery mode, the point is moot.
    Have you tried downloading the update in the middle of the night (2 am or so) where dropouts are much less likely to occur?
    It's always possible to take your device in to an Apple Store (make a Genius Bar reservation first) and do the iOS update there in the Apple Store.. I'm sure they will gladly help you out with it and not charge you a thing. The trouble with that would be if you don't have an Apple Store nearby.
    Sorry I couldn't be of any more help.

  • ITunes could not restore iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored...

    I replaced a faulty iPhone 4S with a new handset today, another iPhone 4S.  I was certain to backup my previous iPhone 4S to iTunes on my PC before returning the faulty unit.  The new phone was 'set up' at the Apple Store and updated to the current iOS, 7.0.4, as was the faulty unit prior to replacement.  Upon connecting the new unit to iTunes to restore to the most recent restore point from earlier in the day, the following message was shown:
    "iTunes could not restore iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored."
    I've browsed other forums and have contacted the Apple Store Genius Bar, and will hear from the Lead Genius tomorrow.  In the meantime, I am hoping someone may have information for me on what I may need to do in order to restore my phone as I'd anticipated doing by now.  My photos, email and text messages are what is affected and have not repopulated.  My music is accessable via iCloud without a problem and my contacts were kept via SIM.  I regularly copy my Camera Roll from my iPhone to my computer, and most of my photos are still viewable via Apple TV/My Photo Stream however only through the photos last saved.  The 348 recent photos that were on my faulty unit, and viewable in My Photo Stream were presumedly safe, but have disappeared.
    I have yet to shut down or restart my computer, nor have I exited out of iTunes, for the simple reason that I'd anticipated returning home with the new handset and plug it into my computer to restore right away.  I did, but that's as far as I've gotten. 
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!

    Had the exact same problem whilst upgrading my iphone 4 to ios5. Lost all my data.
    Backed up ios 4.3 (8F190) iphone4. Upgraded to ios 5.1 (9B176), and then tried to restore.
    No joy, repeated the restore attempts countless times - lost all my data
    Tried again with a simulated test.
    Created a new itunes account on a new PC (64-bit windows 7), latest itunes(10.6.1.7- 64 bit).
    As my data is toast, I'm using the ios 5.1 phone to try to see if it was me or an apple bug, or something elsewhich caused this to happen.
    After quite a few more hours at it, it looks like a bug in iTunes / ios. I would be very happy to be wrong, though.
    Tried repeatedly restoring an ios 4.3 backup to 5.1 - no joy.
    Happy to try again - it does restore partially (got the call register transferred, but no SMS'es or anything else).
    Any ideas?

  • Not compatible with speaker since update to 3.1 (and other issues)

    I have an Altec-Lansing T612 speaker that I specifically bought because it was advertised as "works with iPhone". No problems until I recently updated the phone's OS. Now when I put the iPhone in the speaker dock, I get the message "this device is not compatible with iPhone. Do you want to turn on Airplane Mode, etc. etc.". Worst of all, the phone no longer charges while in the dock.
    Also since the update, my battery drains in a few (3 or 4) hours if bluetooth is on, and apps open up to the initial screen and then close immediately: it takes several tries before I can use them.
    I have no idea how to reverse the OS update or if that's even possible (going to search around on this site for info, but in the meantime if someone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated!). Mainly posting in the hope that someone from Apple will see this and add to their list of 3.1 issues to be dealt with!

  • Rebel T3 not compatible with Windows 8

    My 2012 Rebel T 3 is not compatible with a newly purchased Toshiba laptop with Windows 8. 
    What can I do to "fix" this?

    I hate using the cable. It wastes camera charge and seems to go slower.
    Also, I hate letting get computer pop-up handle the transfer because it is clueless as to what the files are and asks what program to open them with and then it just stores them wherever it feels is right. Doing it manually is simpler.
    If your camera does not have a card reader, you can buy one almost anywhere (Best Buy, Wal Mart, Target) for cheap.
    Create a file on your hard drive (c:drive) for photos. Make a new folder in that file For every batch of pictures. Name it by the date and a brief description (2014-10-03; pumpkin patch and dogs).
    open My computer and open the photo file on C: drive.
    Open My Computer again and then open the card reader drive. You now have 2 open windows you can make small and next to each other. Highlight all your files on the card reader. Drag and drop them into the folder you made to hold them. Bingo.
    If you don't have a post processing program like Canon's DPP or Adobe Lightroom, you can open the photos in windows slide show or a paint or probably some others.

  • IPhone 3G Dock not compatible with iPhone 3G (or 3G s)

    I bought an iPhone 3G dock a few months ago and I'm having problems with it. I had an iPhone 3G and recently upgraded to the 3Gs. This problem is on both phones, but more often seen with the 3Gs. When I plug it in, I get the message telling me "this accessory is not compatible with the iPhone and asks me to turn on airplane mode. When I say no, the message haunts me multiple times. It's really annoying when I charge the phone at night since the screen turns on multiple times, waking me up; or when I have it charging on the dock and an audio out cable plugged into external speakers. (When the message comes up, the audio stops). I've heard a few people talking about this but haven't found a solution. Is this just "the way" it is with 3G docks, or is mine faulty? If so, has Apple recognized it and honors a warranty? It's pretty annoying IMHO and seems pretty out of character for Apple Quality Control...

    I occasionally get that message with a standard iPhone usb cable -- the once that came with my 3GS. This could be due to debris in the connectors: It would not take much to make for a bad connection.
    You might want to try cleaning them by using a clean dry toothbrush.

  • Charging not supported with this [official apple] accessory

    I am getting the infamous "charging not supported with this accessory" with my iphone4, ios5 v5.1.1, and the OFFICIAL apple cable that came in the box. I different usb ports, same problem/
    I know apple cables can become damaged, but I tried that same cable with the power plug and another laptop, and the phone successfully charged.
    To rule out the cable, I bought another apple cable off amazon.com and I get the same error when plugged into this computer, yet it charges fine with the new cable on the other laptop and power plug, just like the first cable. I am beginning to think something is screwy with the USB drivers on the workstation. I hoped upgrading to latest itunes would install newer drivers, but the problem persists.
    So how do I fix a problem that doesnt follow the cable, but follows the workstation? Uninstall the iphone from device manager to remove the drivers? Did that, didnt help. Uninstall itunes and reinstall? Why would that be a different result than upgrading itunes in place?
    Annoyed.

    I uninstalled the driver via device manager, then uninstalled all appled software. Reinstalled via the itunes x64 installer.
    The problem persists.
    However, I was using different usb ports on the 3.5" media reader in my pc. When I use a usb port on the back of the motherboard, charging works successfully with the cable that the iphone complained wasnt an official accessory.
    So my problem is now, why did the front usb ports grab a different driver than the back ports, and how do I make sure they all use the same apple driver? It has to be driver related now, there is nothing left.
