Bluetooth on iPhone 6 does not work with car stereo

I have used iPhone 4, 4S, 5 and 5S on my car - my own and my families phones. They all work as intended with regard to music and most importantly telephony. My car (FORD S-MAX) has buttons etc. for phone navigation. My daughters and wifes 5S's still work.
When I paired my new iPhone 6, the pairing itself was successful, but it does not work at all.
1) Incoming calls show my own telephone number, regardless of who calls
2) I cannot use the car buttons for anything, neither pickup, hangup or anything else
3) Regardless of what I do, the Podcast starts playing, if I choose Bluetooth as sound input on car. If I click pause on Podcast, it resumes after a while, sometimes immediately.
4) If I use the phone to dial a number, the sound is not in the car, even if sound source is Bluetooth/Car. If I select something else and back to car, the sound is in the car.
Hopefully this is soon to be solved! Or is there already a solution out there?
Best regards
Matt, Denmark

My iPhone 6 pairs just fine with my 07 Z4 ,no idrive etc just the basic B/T install on a Business standard radio set up with e snap in connector for the iPhone
but not yet an iPhone 6 snap in
You may need to ensure you clear all ol pairings from Beemer they have a limited number of pairings that can be stored at one time
To dispel all the bad press my 6 also happily paired with my '13 X1 without any issues and with the correct snap in also plays audio
The issue is usually with iDrive which BMW do have some issues with

Okay, the Wi-Fi doesn't work. Turn it on.
Beyond that, we cannot offer any other assistance as you've failed to provide useful details of the problem.

IPhone does not work in car after upgrading to os5

After upgrading to os5 my build in hands free device does not work properly anymore, lot of noise, disconnects, connects in general not usable anymore.
How to fix this?

Does your aftermarket solution connect to the Nano's headphone jack or to the dock connector?
If it connects to the headphone jack I would suggest buying an iPhone headphone adapter. I'm expecting mine to arrive via FedEx tomorrow so that I can use my iPhone in the car with a cassette adapter.
Hope this helps.

IPhone 3G does not work with car integration after 2.2 update

I just upgraded my iPhone 3G with the new 2.2 software update and now it doesn't work with my car integration. Very frustrating... I have a 2009 Honda Civic that has a USB interface. Before the update I was able to charge and play music through the USB interface. In addition, I could also control the music through the stereo. After the update, it says not compatible and it doesn't even charge the phone anymore. Doesn't anyone have the same problem or know how to fix it? Street view is cool but i will definitely revert back to 2.1 if I can't fix this...

I am having the same problem here After updating to 2.2 the iPhone has stopped working in the car. The stereo just simply refuses to see it. The car in question is a brand new 2009 VW Polo Match, which I know is not as fault as tried it with a iPod nano and worked fine.
Is reinstalling the firmware only solution to this? Do we know the cause yet?

IPhone 5 not working with car USB after iOS8.2 update

Hi,
After upgrading my iPhone 5 (32GB, 8.9GB free, model MD299PP/A) to iOS 8.2 (12D508), it doesn't work as usual when connecting to my car's USB port. Before upgrade, I can still see the track names or podcast info in my car stereo display, and can use the navigation controls to select songs. Now, my car stereo display says "iPod NO MUSIC" or "iPod ERROR READING", and can't use the nav controls, although the sound is still coming out of the car speakers.
The above error is seen on my Toyota Corolla Altis 1.6G, so I tried it in my Ford Fiesta 1.5 Sports. Same problem, the dashboard says that "ERROR READING FILE".
I then connected my iPad Air (iOS 8.1.3), and it works well with both cars.

Howdy emoy81,
It sounds like you upated your iOS device to 8.2 and now you are unable to listen to your iPhone through your car due to this error message. I would recommend usin these troubleshooting steps from the following article:
Get help using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with your car stereo
Troubleshooting tips
Try these troubleshooting tips.
Beginning playback and controlling music
Some car stereos might require that playback be started or controlled from either the device or the stereo. Ensure that your car stereo is set to the proper input for your device. If it is and you cannot hear sound from your car speakers, try switching to your radio and then back to the proper input.
When using adapters to connect to your car stereo, you might notice variations in audio quality. When possible, use a shorter connection to the car stereo or try a different cable or adapter.Disconnect and restart
If you are experiencing difficulties with the connection between your stereo and device, disconnect the device, and then power cycle the stereo and your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. When the Home screen reappears, reconnect your device. If you cannot power cycle the stereo, turn the car off and then back on to allow the stereo to power off.Isolate the issue
Try to reproduce the issue with an identical or similar accessory, if one is available, or test with a second device.
For example, if you hear static coming from the left audio channel, try connecting a different device or try connecting to a different stereo or accessory that connects over the same interface (30-pin or Lightning connector, Bluetooth, or headphone jack).Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you have isolated an issue to the device, restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to its factory condition. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue affects only a third-party accessory, contact the accessory manufacturer before restoring your iOS device.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

IPhone does not work with IPOD Dock to select next song / pause - play

After using the iPhone at the gym, the IPhone quit working using the remote for the Docking station to navigate to next song nor pause / play. Suspect Iphone connector....
Also the iMuffs Headset bluetooth adapter that plugged into the iphone connector quit working. Tested iMuffs bluetooth connector on another iPhone and is still functioning.
any ideas?? clean connector?? short?? service??
Note, the iPhone still syncs with iMac via docking port (USB). So the connector is not totally bad.

Have you tried a reset...and if that doesn't work ..a restore? Back up your phone before you restore.

Bluetooth will not work with car stereo after IOS6

I upgraded to ios6 and lost a number of Bluetooth functions with Alpine car stereo 1. Can no longer control playback from head unit. 2. Track info no longer displayed on head unit. 3. When head unit finds iPhone it no longer begins to play automatically.

If this is an after market car radio, you can go to the manufacures website, and they should have an update available for your head unit. Some manufactures dont have it available and you may need to replace and update your head unit. If this is factory installed, go to your local dealership, and they can do the update for you.

IOS8 does not work on car stereo USB

Hi guys,
Has anyone encountered this issue after updating to IOS8 from 7, my USB function in my car recognizes my iphone as an ipod and plays directly without having to use Bluetooth.
Ever since I just updated there seems to be connecting but never connected as an ipod and thus I only can use Bluetooth to play my music.
While is not END of the world, is a bit disappointing.
And yes, I am using original cables and it was working the day before? I don't expect car manufactures to suddenly cater for IOS changes as they probably met the specifications to begin with and thus it was working on IOS 7.
Any thoughts? Or suck in and hopefully Apple gets an update to fix this?
Is there a place where I can give feedback to their team? I know is not scream and shout at them but rather, "Could you have a look at this?"

Hi,
I have a Kia cee'd and I'm experiencing the same issue.
Before updating to iOS8, connecting the iphone to the car USB I was able to get it properly recognized. For example, music playing was working fine and GPS Navigator also.
It was hearable through the car audio system. After the update to iOS 8 (and iOS 8.1), once I connect the iphone to the car USB it is not possible to get the device recognized. The car stereo display prompts a message "no file".
Quite strange and for sure disappointing.
ciao!

Wow...Iphone does not work with Windows Vista 64 bit

Preamble: Please spare me the bitchy comments about my being an idiot for using a PC. I give Steve plenty of money with 4 purchased Ipods, accesories, and a behemoth Itunes account. PC is fine for me and I like to spread the love.
Sooo, here it is...
Incredible, and I can't believe the media has not caught onto this yet as this problem must be the biggest complaint to date. Apple support has confirmed that they are now (after getting thousands of calls this weekend) realizing that even they were caught off guard in the iphone not being compatible with Vista 64bit. As the majority (from what I have seen - with the exception of cheaper line Dells)of PC's shipping over the past few months have the 64 bit version installed this may be a huge blunder on Apple's part. I purchased two phones and spent the weekend uninstalling and reinstalling itunes (per the error message and the instructions of support) before it was realized by Sunday that it doesn't work. Updates? The one person at apple support told me it could be weeks. Back to the store for a return and an argument over the 10% restocking fee.

Actually OS X has a larger population of users (over
Vista but not WinXP) if you look at
licensed/registered accounts. Various browser sites
that log OS type hits would also bare out this
information. Not many folks have adopted Vista over
WinXP, and even fewer have installed 64bit version of
Vista due to lack of driver support and compatibility
with existing Windows based applications/games.
Having said that, get a Mac and install Boot Camp to
run WinXP or Vista and also get fully integrated
iPhone support with your Mac.
Look up the actual sales numbers for Vista, think
you'll be surprised -- your actually the minority not
the majority.
Vista sales are well below expectation -- Microsoft's
stock is taking a beating while Apple's stock is
taking off. But to solve your issues, I suggest you
run the Windows version of iPhone software in 32bit
compatibility mode -- this should solve it.
Rob.
To say that there are more OS X users than Vista is false. That's what you believe and want everyone else to believe.
I agree it has problems but like the iPhone they will be addressed.

Iphone does not work with exchange server 2003

keeps saying server not found....

You have to activate Exchange ActiveSync for each user's mobile device. This is done by the IT folks in the back office.

IPhone (3,3G,4) does not work with Apple Universal Dock.

I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch that has been upgraded to iOS 4. My iPod Touch will no longer sync via the Apple Universal Dock. Also, my new iPhone 4 also will not sync via the Apple Universal Dock.

Trust a geek not to give up. I decided to get to the bottom of the "iOS device does not work with the Apple Universal Dock" problem. I noticed that the iPhone 4 and iPad came with slightly different USB-Dock adapter cables. I wondered if that might be the issue. My Apple Universal Dock was connected to my Mac via the original dock adapter cables which are slightly larger. I connected the newer cables between the Mac and the Apple Universal Dock and .... voila! Both the iPod Touch with iOS 4 and the iPhone can now connect via the Apple Universal Dock. Apple changed something in the way the adapter cables function.
Of course I still have the problem with the car head unit dock adapter ... Sigh. I'll have to call Best Buy ( uughh! ) and find out if they'll do the update for me. The were the vendor authorized installer.

IPhone 4s bluetooth connects but does not work handsfree

Fixed by power cycling the iPhone

I bought this iPhone from Apple Retail Store for the full amount, but it does not work with my SIM card only works with AT&T

Hello,
I have an iPhone 4S 32Gb White AT&T, product part No. MC921LL/A, Serial No. C39GMLPWDTDC
I bought this iPhone from Apple Retail Store (from Fifth Avenue, NY) for the full amount. Now it does not work with my SIM card only works with AT&T. I restored the phone several times, but I have not received "Congratulations your iPhone has been unlocked". Please activate my iPhone to work with different SIM cards
Thanks,
Best Wishes

When did you buy it?
Apple did not begin selling an unlocked version of the iPhone 4S in the US until 11/11/11. I believe it went on sale only through the online store at that time. I'm not sure if it's available at retail yet.
What you purchased was a phone without a contract commitment. It is still locked to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones for any reason. Return it and get your money back, then use that to purchase an unlocked phone.
