Controlling IPhone thru steering controls on 2008 Altima

Ive got an 08 Altima with the steering wheel controls for the stereo. The stereo has an external input for the ipod or for any mp3 player...1/4 inch to 1/4 inch. What i am interested in doing is using a different output from the ipod to allow me to fast forward and rewind using the steering wheel. I found this surfing around
Boss IPC60 Cable For iPod Integration
Just curious if anyone has any experience with this and whether or not it actually is compatible.

Here is what I've tried:
1) reloaded 2.1 and ONLY downloaded one play list to make sure all settings were defaulted.
2) the cable cannot be the problem since USB (A) has 4 pins (+5v,gnd, +D, -D). The iphone charges in the car, (+5,gnd) must be good. The device is detected and songs will play for a short period of time. This means the +/-D lines must be good. Note: Detect is done on +/-D and these are the differential data lines the device communicates over. The above coupled with the fact it also works with my wall charger and iTunes furthers this conclusion.
3) after uploading 1.1 to the car, the sync site has you confirm the upload. After completing that step, the sync site does acknowledge a CI (confirmed install).
What does your sync version show in your car? If you go to the same [System Settings] area, under [Advanced], there is one called: Auto Ver Num. If you press OK, it should tell you the sync firmware rev. Mine is: 5.6.8101sp0.0Prod.
The major ver matches the MGM Installation File List (put on usb during update).

  • Playing iPhone Thru iTunes on Different Different Computers

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm having a problem playing the songs on my iPhone thru any but the computer it's synced to. All the songs are greyed out. None of the songs are from the iTunes store so I'm thinking I should not have to authorize any other computers to play. With my iPod I just connect it to any computer and am able to play the songs off of it thru iTunes and I'd like to be able to do the same with my iPhone. Any assistance would be appreciated...
    Thanks

    Unlike the iPod, when under manual control, the iPhone will only play off the library it is synced with when connected to a computer.
    I tried this myself and discovered that, even though Apple gave us a little more control of our iPhone library through manual control with an update, but they still have it protected and set up so it can only work with one library.
    My example is, I sync my iPhone with my Mac at home. I tried to connect it to my PC at work, and all my information showed up, songs, everything. But it was grayed out, so I couldn't use it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can i factory reset an iphone thru itunes or icloud without having my iphone present

    can i factory reset an iphone thru itunes or icloud without having my iphone present

    If you set up Find My iPhone and the phone appears in iCloud.com, you can erase it, which is what I presume you are wanting to do. If you didn't set up Find My iPhone or it doesn't appear there, then there's no way to erase the phone without having it in hand.
    Regards.

  • My iPhone 4S not compatible with 2008 Q7 Audi MMI.  Now only phone numbers come up on screen, no name.  Names appeared on the phone screen but not MMI screen. Cannot dial by contact info while driving anymore.  Never had this problem with previous iPhones

    My iPhone 4S not compatible with 2008 Q7 Audi MMI.  Now only phone numbers come up on screen, no name.  When someone calls, only the number appears on the MMI screen, not their name or whether they called from their office/home etc..   Same with missed calls, dialed numbers etc.. Names appeared on the screen of the phone,  but not on MMI screen. Cannot dial by searching  contact and name info while driving anymore.  Never had this problem with previous iPhones.  Is this an Apple issue or Audi issue?  Anyone with this problem? Help!

    NIGHTMARE Finally Ends, after nearly two weeks.
    After trying for over a week trying to get my replacement iPhone 4S to activate, I ended up driving 110+ miles to an Apple Store to get a second replacement, which had been specially shipped there for me.  Popped in the SIM card, went through the setup and I finally have an iPhone 4S that works, at least for the time being.
    Advice to others who find themselves in this situation:
         1)     If you get these messages (see original post), the phone is bad.  Demand a replacement.
         2)     If the AppleCare tech advises that the Apple Agreement Administration team is investigating, you'll be waiting for a week or more for them to complete it.  Demand a replacement immediately, don't let them put you off indefinitely.
    After the initial phone call documented in my original post, I was in daily contact, phone & e-mail, with the AppleCare tech trying to figure out the problem, and we tried everything, from forced restore's to switching SIM cards, conferencing w/ AT&T, etc.  It seems that this was a case of first impression to Apple, but if it wasn't, then the problem is not well documented or known by those who should know, and for that, the blame should be on Apple, not the AppleCare tech who worked tirelessly trying to figure out a solution--I'd send him a case of beer if I knew where to send it.

  • Jump in users session with control Server 2008 R2/Windows 7 64 Environment

    For two hours I've searched and searched and can't find MY answer. My goal is to jump in and control workstations of my employees (a bunch of old farts that would blank out if they had to do anything to allow me to do this) without the use of VNCs or third
    party installs. I'm running Active Dir. This is what I've done WITH THE NETWORK FIREWALL OFF:
    installed the mmc Remote Desktop Services Manager
    at root level I can only see my sessions automatically
    I am remoted into Server 2008 R2 using this snap it to remote into Old Lady #1
    I'm a member of:
    --Administrators (for domain)
    --Domain Admins
    --Remote Desktop Users
    When I add a computer to the MMC I get: "The computer can't be reached..."
    Using GP, I pushed out a policy to the computers in that department the 2 firewall changes necessary
    --One about allowing remote access for administration
    --One about allowing remote desktop access
    ----I * the allowed computers until I figure this out, afterwards I will further restrict the "from" computers for security
    I'm inches from thinking that what I want can only be done with VNCs or third party apps. I manage beach houses for a living and don't have time to spend like this on helping my old fogies OR walking all over 2 floors to help someone because the printer
    is only printing black and white or "my mouse is too fast" or "how do find an email that I deleted"...
    Is it possible for me to be all mighty and powerful and take control of my Win7 workstations without them doing anything more than pressing OK when I just in there session?
    I don't like third party. I like everything Microsoft unless 100% unavoidable.
    Thanks,
    charlyRoot

    You should use Remote Assistance and configure GPO for unsolicited access:

  • HT1386 It says to click the device button in the upper right corner....there isn't one.  Itunes doesn't even recognize my devices since I did the most current update.  I have two iPhones, thru different carriers, and neither one works now!

    I did the latest iTunes update...I have 2 iPhones--each thru a different provider.  Now, I can't sync to download any music from iTunes.  iTunes doesn't recognize either device now.  I went thru diagnostics, didn't work.  I tried the suggestions from Apple...it says to click the device button in upper right corner....there isn't one.  When I connected each for the first time after update, it "installed device drivers".  I have checked for further updates on iTunes--nothing.  I made sure there were no updates listed for iPhones...all up to date.  I get an error code and from what I have looked through in forums etc, it seems like a lot of people are getting it...0ex000084 I believe it was.  Windows opens to download photos but that's it.  Devices are not listed at all.  I have tried all 3 USB ports in computer too.  I have never had any problems before this update!!  HELP!  I just bought $15 worth of music I can't download to phones now!

    On the left hand side of iTunes do you have the sidebar up left hand side?
    If this is not up then try this, with iTunes open press "Control" and "s" together and it should bring it up. From the sidebar it should show an option devices with the iPhones underneath it.

  • HT4528 when i first got my iphone thru verizon, i had 2 movies, and numerous songs that came from my cd's i owned already. or from music that i already had on my computer. however, i didn't think i would be chgd for putting them on itunes,i pd more doing

    the 2 movies on itunes i purchased, and put on itunes,for travel. i also added music that i also had to my itunes on my computer. heck, i was charged more for the movies, than i paid for them on my original purchase of them when i put them on itunes. the music on itunes was also music that i purchased the cd's, myself, and loaded onto my computer so that i would be able to carry it with me when i went on a trip..but when i got my bill, i was being charged for purchasing them again...is that how itunes works? if it is i will not be adding any more of my movies, or music on it at all. iphone or computer? by the time i got the bill it had added allmost 40+ dollars to my bill. and no i was not over my space i had for my phone, and definitely had room on my computer.  so please. if thats how it works tell me and i will not add any more to my itune acct. i was quite stunned to see what additional charges i was paying again, and even worse more than i'd paid for it all the first time when i purchased....i have sent an email upon figuring out what had  made my bill so high, just as i am now. as of today i have not gotten any response from customer support. if this is the case i will not only not use itunes on any of my devices but i will see that upon renewal of my contract. i will NOT purchase any device that you have to use iturnes on it....i have spoke to several people and they had the same thing happen to them. so do we have to pay JUST to add our own movies music etc to itunes. cause if thats the case i will go back to other phones and won't have to deal with itunes.i didn't PUCHASE any of it from itunes, and if i had i would have done it only with an itunes card just to avoid and have control of my bill, as i thought that i would..so please let me know if i have to pay again for my OWN items,i put on itunes. i had plenty of space on my computer, the cloud, dropbox etc. that wouldn't even make any sense for anyone to do it....please respond, it has taken a while to send again due to several very personal tragedies i have been a bit behind in getting this cone again but i would love to get or have someone explain WHY i am paying for music and movies that i had and thought it was a good idea to put on my computer for travellimg purposes. i hope and would appreciate an acknowledgement of this letter, and also a response...because if that's the case i won't be using itunes any more for adding movies or music to itunes, and on top of that paying for it all a second time, and it also being more than i had originally paid for them when and where i purchased them..i have been please with all my apple products till that happened, now not so sure....i have to keep up with all of my expenses for medical reasons..i hope that i get a response this time. i also have 2 other email addresses, [email protected], and [email protected],i used them to try to use them to set up my acct., but for whatever reason said they were invalid and i have had them for several years, no problem with any one else......

  • Am I able to watch movies downloaded on my iPhone thru my iPad

    I have movies downloaded on my IPhone, am I able to stream them somehow thru my IPad so I can watch them on a larger screen? I have no more space on my IPad to put any more movies on it. I was wondering if there is a cable to connect the two devices together. thanks for any advice.

    No. You can't do that. You could delete some content on the iPad and download the movies onto the device to watch them. Most paid content can be downloaded again at no cost as long as you use the same Apple ID you used to make the purchases and as long as the content is still available for download.
    Download past purchases

  • HT201210 hello i`ll have a iphone 4 whit the erro 2008 what is that??? and what to do???

    i have an iphone 4s and have a fail 2008 what is that an what to do whit it?????

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
    The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My "notes" on iPad will not sync with iPhone thru iCloud. What gives?

    My "notes" on iphone and iPad will not sync thru iCloud. I am sure it is user error...but I can not figure it out.

    It reads like this is a problem on the iOS side. On your iPhone or iPad launch the notes app, in the top left corner tap the button until you are on the Accounts page and see if iCloud is an option. If it is select that option and new notes will push to your Mac. If its not close the Notes app and go to Settings > iCloud > Notes > Toggle On. The option will now be in the notes app as described above. Side note: You may be asked to set up an iCloud email if you haven't already. Hope that helps.

  • Charging your ipod / iphone thru a computer that ISN'T your main computer

    How do I charge my iphone / ipod through a computer that isn't my main computer without dumping my play info for that day onto that computer?
    I recently discovered, upon connecting my device to my main computer, (the one I sync with at home,) that my play info for the day (playcount, last played, etc.) does not get updated. I figured out that it's because I charged my device at work, thru my work computer. All my play info for the day is dumped onto my work computer, even if that computer doesn't even have the songs.
    How do I charge my device thru a computer at work without losing my play info?

    I iTunes on your computer at work, select preferences,
    "Syncing", click the checkbox to "Diable automatic syncing
    for all iPhones and iPods".
