Connecting new IPOD touch to a car (USB)

Hi Guys,
Saw the issues over the popping issue, However I cannot even get my car to recognise my device? . My old IPOD worked fine plug & play . I thought the same would be for this . I have attempted to use the USB in my car ( Mecredes ) and it reads cannot recognise device.
help please
Dave

What iOS was on the old iPod? If not iOS 6 it could be that the IOS update broke compatibility.
Have you reset the car system?
Does Mecredes say it is compatible with the new iPod/iOS 6?
Have you looked at their support site?

  • Connecting new iPod Touch to stereo or car using 1/8" auxiliary cable

    I am having troubles connecting my new iPod Touch to my stereo and car using a 1/8" auxiliary cable. I plugged the cable into the headphone port on the iPod Touch (just as I always do with my iPod nano) and no sound comes out. The headphone port works fine when I have my earbuds plugged in. I have tried two different cables that both worked with other devices (a nano and a XM radio). Am I missing something? Is there a special cable that I should be using?
    Appreciate any help that you can give me. Thanks!

    I feel really stupid now...I didn't realize the volume had to be ALL the way up! Thanks.

  • Connecting new ipod touch to TV?

    Hi i currently own the new ipod touch i want to connect it to my tv so i can stream live NHL video via the gamecenter app. Are there any cables or leads so i can connect to my tv that are compatible with the new ios?
    I have seen a few floating around but most say only compatible with ios up to version 3.0
    Also, some say you can't use them to watch video from your ipod through your tv, only view pictures. HELP?

    Many different cable works.  See the following.  Note that TV out on the iPod ony works for apps that specifically support TV out.  You hvae to check to see if the app you want to use supports TV out.  No iPod morros the iPod's screen.

  • Connecting New Ipod Touch to PC

    I keep trying to connect my new ipod touch to my PC and it keep getting a dialog box that tells me Apple Ipod on top and then in the box it says Camera Connected. It then gives me an option to launch the program using Microsoft scanner and camera wizard or Microsoft Word. The device is charging but in "My Computer" it is listed under Scanners and Cameras as Apple Ipod #2 with a camera icon. Does anybody know how to resolve this. It is not recognizing the ipod in itunes

    Hey cdiesel32,
    Do you have Logitech or other USB camera software installed on the computer? This article says iPhone in the title but relates to the iPod touch also.

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:

    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • New ipod touch won't connect, shows itunes and usb icons

    My son just got a new ipod touch for his birthday. I have the latest version of itunes, and I have spent hours scouring the internet looking for a solution. Whether the thing is plugged into the computer or not, all it will do is show the usb cable icon and the itunes icon. When I plug it into the computer, my computer makes the noise that indicates that a device has plugged in, the ipod beeps one beep, and I get an error message from itunes that says that a rented movie from the ipod cannot be imported into itunes. Other than that, the computer, including itunes, doesn't acknowledge the existence of the ipod, not in the device manager, in itunes, in the itunes diagnostics tests, or anywhere else. In addition, the battery won't charge.
    Also, I noticed that I do not have anything called "Apple Mobile Device Service," although I do have something called "Bonjour service." Are these the same thing or could this be the problem. Please HELP!

    See:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    You need iTunes 10.5 or later and that requires OSX 10.5.8 or later.

  • Ipod Touch not recognized by USB port on my new radio! PLEASE help?!?!?

    Ok, so I just bought a new radio for my car so I can listen to my ipod touch 2nd gen (with the latest 3.0 software) through my speakers. Ok, that's all great, but the problem is that when I connect my ipod touch through the USB port on my new radio, it reads "device error"...
    My radio is an Alpine CDE-102. It does have an AUX input, and I can easily get a cable to fix this problem... but I'm wondering why my ipod touch doesn't show up through the USB?!?! And I don't know how AUX input sounds compared to USB input (probably less quality than the USB...)
    So, can you help me? I've also connected my ipod touch to my xbox 360 and it shows up as a camera - can't play music... all part of the same problem I guess...
    This is a SERIOUSLY annoying problem especially since I just dropped some cash on the new radio which might not even WORK!!! AHHHHH! A problem with the USB cable? Problem with the Ipod? Problem with the stereo? I'm not quite sure what to think...

    That is the ONLY cable that will work with that radio:
    http://www.alpine-usa.com/US-en/products/product.php?model=CDE-102&view=Specs
    From reading the manual for your iPod I'm pretty certain the connector is on the rear of your unit.
    You can connect an Auxiliary cable to the headphone out on your Touch to the AUX in on the radio but you will have to control everything with the iPod and it will not charge.
    The cable is $30, why don't you ask how much they would charge you to install it?

  • My FM transmitter and car charger doesn't work with my new iPod Touch.

    As stated in the subject, when I connect my new iPod Touch to the FM transmitter and/or car charger that I was using with my iPod video, it doesn't work. When I connect the transmitter alone, nothing happens and when I connect the car charger, a screen appears that says something like, "charging not supported with this device"
    Has anyone experienced these issues? Or does anyone know of a solution???

    I bought the new iPod Touch 3rd Gen 32Gb model on the day they were announced. This is my first iPod, but my wife already owned an iPod classic. I tried the car charger that we had bought for her older iPod and I too got a message something like, "charging not supported with this accessory".
    I saw the previous response and went out to shop for a new adapter. I found a Belkin kit that included the auto 12v power socket adapter that one can plug a USB cable into. The unit came with a USB cable that plugs into the iPod docking port. The kit also came with an AC home adapter with one USB port. My newer iPod charges just fine with both of these adapters.
    So I would agree with the previous post. The newer units need the newer USB charging adapter rather than the older basic 12v adapter.

  • Ok, when i try to sync my new ipod touch to my computer, it says unable to connect for unknown reasons, and as a benefit, it shows the songs as faded in the list and therefore unplayable. how do i fix this problem?

    as stated in the title, i when i try to sync my new ipod touch to my computer it says its unable to connect due to unkown reasons. the music is listed on my touch as there, but faded (minus a selected few songs) and therefore are unplayable. i have no idea where to start, i figured downloading the newest itunes update, however, it no longer shows up when i start it up. confused.

    Can anyone help me out please?

    Thanks!
    Even though the diagnostics aren't showing errors for it, I think it's probably still worth checking on your USB drivers, as per the following document:

  • Can't connect brand new iPod touch 4th gen to iTunes, please help!

    I just got a new iPod touch, 16 gig 4th generation. I'm going through the setup process. Once I get to the option to connect through a network, I hit a problem. My internet at home requires a MAC address to be "invited" into the network before I can connect, however I can't get the MAC address until I complete setup!
    So I choose the "Connect to iTunes" option instead. My computer recognizes that there is an iPod connected to it, but iTunes won't pick it up. There is nothing under "Devices".
    What do I do?? ):

    I just retried a step I missed earlier in the articles before and ran into a problem here:
    #5 Verify that the apple mobile devi usb driver is installed
    > for windows 7
    > if the apple mobile device usb driver is not listed
    > if only Apple iPod appears
    > for windows 7
    I went through all these steps until #8: Click OK in the "Install from Disk" dialog. At this point it tries to load for a bit and I get this message:
    "Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device.
    Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. (Apple Mobile Device USB Driver)
    Windows cannot initialize the device driver for this hardware. (Code 37)"
    As for your reply, I did indeed already try removing and reinstalling all the Apple programs with unfortunately no effect.
    When I do the sync test, I get that one or more things failed: iTunes Helper not running and No iPod found.

  • Brand New Ipod touch can't connect to windows.

    I bought a brand new ipod touch today and when I connected it to my laptop windows comes up with a message saying that the usb device is not recognised. I have the latest update for itunes and all of the correct drivers are installed. I have tried resetting the iPod but nothing works. Anyone got any ideas? I'm running vista if this makes any difference.

  • Connecting and syncing new iPod Touch to iTunes v10.1

    I have several downloaded albums from the iTunes Store, along with some ripped cd's, and some downloaded albums that have been imported into iTunes, along with about 100 apps. I did have many of the albums on my previous iPod Nano 8gb, but in preparation for my iPod Touch 32gb 3g, I downloaded many free iPod apps, and bought a few.
    Now, I forget all the things I checked in iTunes, but know it's set now to only sync on command, not automatically. When I connect the new iPod Touch 32gb 3g, I may also need to update the iOS to 4.2 also. First, can I do the iOS update with iTunes set to manual sync? Next, what options need to be set in iTunes to a)let this happen, and b)allow me to either manually or automatically sync my new iPod?
    I realize now that when I do sync the new Touch, with that many apps (over 100) it might take a minute or two.

    Just what version of iTunes do you have? For a 5G iPod/iOS 7 you need iTunes 11.1 or later.. If you have a Mac yo need OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    Does the iTunes still see the 4G iPod?
    If necessary:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Or
    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause
