Bluetooth for playing music in a car

I just bought a jabra which is a handsfree bluetooth device that has a speaker, and mounts to your visor so you can enjoy handsfree talk. But this device also has a fm transmitor so I can play my songs through my car stereo (or listen to conversation thru)...this is all via bluetooth. So I just walk into my truck and away I go...Im tranmitting to my speakers. Problem is...the fm transmitor *** butt. And though some people may be happy with it...Ive invested too much money into my audio to allow static to blow my speakers.
So...my question is...is there a bluetooth device that you can use for handsfree talking that hooks into your car via aux cables. OMG....if there is I would be so thrilled. The jabra is an awewsome concept...but the transmitor is not strong (and if someone suggest a new station I will freak out). But the same device using aux cables would be something everyone should have.

I bought one of these --> http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Ericsson-MBR-100-Bluetooth-Receiver/dp/B000NWB0J0/ref =sr16?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1259084155&sr=8-6
It works well, but there's no volume control on the unit, and it disables the volume control on the iPhone - so you wouldn't want to use it with headphones. For playing through a car stereo, it works just fine.

    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    With Home Sharing, you can stream music to your iPad. To transfer the songs to your device, sync it with iTunes. See this article for the steps:

  • After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - whihc has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5.

    After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - which has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5. Has been working fine up until update. Is there a fix for this? The car does not have usb

    Here I come to save the daaaaaaaaaay!!!
    Had the same issue with my Nissan Rogue 2011.
    This listed below will fix it...
    Go to General > Restrictions > CarPlay -- Make sure Carplay is DISABLED. (The new IOS 8 enables this on default)
    Go to General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    The Nissan Rogue radio system was never designed to work with CarPlay. By default, CarPlay feature comes enabled when you install IOS 8. Suckz, right?
    You're very welcome! Have a great day!
    Sincerely,

  • IPhone 4 using iOS 6.0.1 will not play music through my car stereo

    I have an iPhone 4 since it became available on Verizon's network.  I have had no issues with my phone since I began using it.  I own a 2008 VW Rabbit with the optional iPhone/iPod docking station to play music through the car's stereo.  I purchased a docking extention cable because my phone would not fit on the docking connector properly due to my phone case.  Everything has been working beautifully, sans the charging feature, until a few weeks ago.  Normally, I would start the iPod app, load the song or playlist I want to play, and plug it in to begin hearing my music.  However, recently the music stopped playing through my car speakers and only played through the built-in speakers on my phone once plugged into the docking station.  I have tried hard-rebooting (holding home button/sleep button at same time until Apple logo appears), soft rebooting (holding sleep button to slide power off), exiting all open apps, opening/closing iPod app, changing different settings through the Settings app, etc.  I am at my wits' end.  I use my phone to listen to my loaded music, Pandora and Slacker Radio.  It has gotten really boring listening to local radio during my commutes.  Please Community, help me!

    i have same problem in UK - my phone no longer works with my car cable - it will charge the phone, my ipad works fine, as does my old itouch so I know that the cable is ok.  It comes up with no connection even though it is charging it. It used to be fine I dont understand why this would happen?

  • I subscibed to ITunes Match and all my music has disappeared from my Ipod touch and will only play through WiFi so I cannot play music in my car. How do I get it back please

    I subscibed to ITunes Match and all my music has disappeared from my Ipod touch and will only play through WiFi so I cannot play music in my car. How do I get it back please

    You'll need to switch off iTunes Match on the device & sync the iPod with iTunes as hopefully you've kept all your music on your PC.

  • Standards for playing music

    I installed QuickTime for Windows yesterday, and aside of the fact that I don't like that it automatically also installed this iTunes-thing and for some reason also made MSN active (which I did not request either in any way), it is roundabout annoying that it made itself standard for playing music files and video files despite that I checked "no" when it asked whether I would like to make it standard.
    Seeing as I download a lot of music I need to get rid of that because it takes up an awful lot of time (in the past Windows Media Player did the downloading, but now QT opens in the IE window and considerably slows down browsing even if I use multiple windows.)
    So, my question is, how and where should I go on my computer to return Windows Media Player to standard for playing musics files?

    Where is the control panel? The only "advanced" panel I could find was by clicking "preferences -> Quicktime-Preferences" and it doesn't have anything called MIME-settings.
    Also, I don't want to right-click files, I already am doing that to get around QT and that is still taking much time. I want it to open in Windows Media Player like it used to do, if it was possible before it should be possible again.

  • HT4335 Does Itunes have a solution for playing music in a business setting?

    Does Itunes have a solutions for playing music in a business setting?  Can you play your downloaded music in a business-overhead speakers?

    Presuming you are referring to the iTunes Store, tracks purchased from that service are for personal use only and are not licensed for use in any commercial setting. You will need to either find a commercial service to provide music (easiest by far, though perhaps not the cheapest), or buy the appropriate CDs and then obtain a license from the various rights clearinghouses for playback in commercial use.

  • HT201210 i want to use my old iphone for playing music and it wont sync

    i want to use my old iphone for playing music and it wont sync

    Another thing to remember is the phone is actually usable for 911 calls and maybe others. Not a real good idea. Especially for a child.
    It would depend however on the age of the child.
    Good Luck

  • Apps for Playing Music & Videos - Lumia 1320

    Can anyone name an app excellent for playing music from folders & an app for video playing with subtitles for NOKIA Lumia 1320?
    Moderator's Note: The subject was amended as we have created a new thread for this topic and moved it to the more appropriate board.

    Luckily, there is an excellent app named MoliPlayer Pro. there is a free trial, but it does play alternative video format files such as MKV, RMVB, MOV etc.

  • I purchased an itrip Auto Pilot and require an app to use it according to my device I was setting up to play music in my car speakers.  I cannot find an app for this in the itunes store.  Help

    I purchased an ITrip Auto Pilot and when attempting to use it to play music from my Iphone through my car speakers, I was promptedd to get an app from the itunes store to enable it to work.  I went to the itunes store and searched for an app and could not find one.  Can anyone tell me the app I need and where to get it for this itrip auto pilot made by Griffin?  It is supposedd to enable my iphone and ipod to play on my FM radio in my car.

    You should go to the web site for the iTrip product and see what app it is, I'll bet there's a link there that will take you right to the app.  Don't worry, as you get more stuff it'll be easier to figure it all out, eventually it'll be plain old common sense that solves these types of issues for you

  • Can iPhone be stopped from always playing music in the car?

    Hi.
    My sister & I both have an iPhone. (Mine is a 4; hers is a 5C.)
    Until we bought a new car in April, the battery consumption on our phones was quite acceptable. The problem is that our new car has a Bluetooth connection, and it seems to 'take over' our iPhones whenever they're connected to it via Bluetooth. Every time we go to our phones after being in the car we find that the phone is playing music, even though we've not been listening to that music in the car. (99% of the time we're in the car we listen to the car radio, so the music is playing in vain on our phones.)
    The music isn't bothering us of course, because we can't hear it. But we've been finding that it has been dramatically affecting the battery life on our iPhones. We seem to be charging them far more now than we did before.
    Is there any way of stopping our iPhones from always playing music when they're connected via Bluetooth to the car please? Our car is a Ford Fiesta fitted with something called SYNC.
    (We don't want to turn Bluetooth off of course, because it provides hands-free use of the iPhones for talking on the telephone. We just want it to stop playing music.)

    Check the settings for your car's stereo. It is telling the phone to start playing music when connected. It's not a setting on the phone.

  • My iPhone 4 will no longer play music in my car. I need help.

    For over two years, my iphone has played music when hooked up to the ipod connector in hmy car. When I plug it in, the "charging not supported..." box still pops up but no music plays. My sister's phone will play in my car, so it is not a problem with anything in my car. And when I tried to play my phone in her car, it would charge, but again, no music would play. The problem has to be with my phone, but I haven't done anything different with it. Any ideas or suggestions to fix this?

    Standard steps from the manual are to restart, reset, restore.  which of those have you done?

    hpw do i get my phone to play my music through my car when i plug it in?

    When you plug it into the aux port?
    Go to the Music app, select what you want and hit play. The stereo should be set to aux. If you have bluetooth in your car, you may need to press the icon on the phone to select the output. Audio out goes to the last connected device. If your bluetooth doesn't connect until after you plug into the aux port, it will try to stream via bluetooth if your system supports A2DP.

  • Play music in my car with a USB connection

    My car has a USB connection for audio input.  When I connect the car with the USB cable that came with my 8530 to my phone, the radio does not detect that I have connected it. 
    My question is, can I play music through the USB port on my CURVE 8530 and how do I enable this feature if I do have it.
    PS. This is my first smart phone, and I love my CURVE to death.

    I'm pretty sure you can't do this. The only way for this to work is if your car has an AUX wire input. Most newer cars do have this.
