Do I need to disable the passcode to play music through car's radio/media device?

My new iPod touch uses a pass code.  Do I need to disable the pass code to play music in my Volkswagen (thru Thunderbolt adapter to the radio/ media player)?????
My very OLD iPod would play immediately, but the new iPod only shows what should be playing (on the car's monitor) and will not play. Even the media controls in car won't work until I enter the pass code.  Please help. Thank you.

  • Should the iPhone 4S play music through built-in speaker?

    I have a new iPhone 4S. I just got it loaded with my music. I noticed that there is no sound through the built-in speakers when playing music. However, with headphones plugged in, I can hear music through them just fine. The mute switch is in the up position. My older iPod Touch would play through the built-in speaker if there was nothing plugged in to the headphone jack. Should the iPhone 4S do the same? If so, how can I get that working? If not, will someone please just tell me that so it doesn't drive me slowly nuts thinking there's a problem with the device?
    TIA!

    I took the phone to an Apple store. Come to find out that due to some corrosion on the dock contacts, the phone thought it was in a dock. The tech was unable to repair it, so they had to replace it.
    NOTE: I had to backup to the iCloud first, to make sure all my apps and settings, etc wre available to the replacement. Upon restore to the new phone, the following issues surfaced:
    1) none of my original "imported" music restored. Only the music I'd purchased through iTunes. Fortunately, I have it on mt PC backup.
    2) most of my books were "corrupted" upon restore. I tried to work with the Apple tech for days on this issue. Finally, I deleted my bookshelf and re-downloaded it, at which time I was able to sync the books between mt iPad and iPhone.
    Watch out, because the Cloud still has reliability and functionality issues.
    Anyway, the original issue that made me start this thread has been resolved.

  • Do I need my PC turned on when playing music through AppleTV?

    I got all the settings and can see my music library on my new Apple TV. However, when My PC is turned off the library music disappears. Is this normal? Does this new apple TV have a hard drive storage inside?

    The ATV 1 has an internal hard drive to store your audio and video files locally on the unit. The ATV 2 has no such storage capabilities. So you cannot store music, movies or photos on it as you could on the ATV 1.
    What would be really nice is if the ATV 2 allowed for an external drive so if you wanted to store files locally, you could. I like being able to play my music through the ATV without turning on any computers. It will be a sad day when the ATV 1 I have finally dies.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • Need to disable the clearing of browsing history and what is the "about:config" function for it?

    I am working on an Group Policy Administrative template for Wetdog.exe, and it's awesome by the way. Just want to know what function to use (listed in "about:config" url) so i can turn this feature off entirely.
    I don't want my users deleting browsing history, or have any ability to view it either.
    Still, i want the browser to keep at least 30 days of history.
    This is EASILY accomplished in Internet Explorer via GPO, but not so much in Mozilla with wetdog.exe and it's admin templates. I am using Windows Server 2003 enterprise edition R2 on 2 domain controllers, and Windows XP Professional SP3 client workstations with Mozilla 3.6.3 and the latest version of Wetdog.exe and it's admin templates.
    Any help would be much appreciated!!!

    It can be annoying, but I think their motivation is good.  They are trying to make things better for their customers and I think they have, even though sometimes it is annoying.  I think it would be nice if they would advise us when the pages are going to be down for maintenance,  In the mean time, you could have another E mail account so you can always get access to your E mail.

  • How to disable the passcode for iPhone and iPad

  • I just got a 4th generation ipod touch from someone and there's a passcode. when i've tried to reset/restore it, itunes says i need to enter the passcode to continue. how do i unlock it?

    when i clicked "restore" on itunes it started updating the ipod touch, but halfway through it says i need to enter the passcode. i let the whole download finish and it still says i need to enter the passcode. what do i do?

    Are you sure you are following the instructions correctly?  Placing the iPod in recovery mode wil allow you to bypass the passcode lock.  If it's still asking you for the passcode, you aren't doing something correctly.  Keep trying.
    If no luck there, try DFU mode as well.

  • Is there a way to disable the passcode function?

    hello, I work at a school, in the IT department. one of my jobs is to manage all the ipads.
    I have a lot of ipads that students use. some students like to make a passcode and lock me out.
    is there any way to disable the passcode function?
    thanks,

    No, but what you can do is use the free MDMs at http://www.simplemdm.com/ or http://www.meraki.com/products/systems-manager/ , enroll your devices, and clear passcodes set by students with the click of a mouse.

    Well, then enjoy it as a paperweight, because like it or not, you will have to restore it if you want to use it again.

  • HT5243 How does one know if they use "java applets"? What do they do? How will I know if I need to 'disable the java web plug-in browser' if I do not use them? ( I'm not very literate in computer-speak.

    How does one know if they use "java applets"? What do they do? How will I know if I need to 'disable the java web plug-in browser' if I do not use them? (Obviously I'm not very literate in computer-speak.)

    Well, when you go to a web page a section of the web page will have a coffee cup picture where the java applet will run. The applet loads then runs. If you are not seeing this behavior then you are not using java. If it make you feel more comfortable then disable the browser java plugin. On my machine I have not disable java- but you
    may what to.

  • The external GPS is used only for 911 but the device will not op without it...this causes great inconvenience for me, having to run that cable to a window in the trwo houses I use it..ids there a way to disable the GPS if I do not care about the 911 funct

    the external GPS is used only for 911 but the device will not operate without it...this causes great inconvenience for me, having to run that cable to a window in the two houses I use it..is there a way to disable the GPS if I do not care about the 911 functionability..?  this is the only downside I have with the network extender and it renders my device useless..

    Nope, GPS is a Federal requirement for anything operating a cellular telephone signal.  You don't ever plan to call 911 until you are in an emergency.  I don't see that requirement changing any time soon.
    If you are truly inconvenienced by the VZW network extender then perhaps you should disable you calling features in these areas and swap over to WiFi only.  There are many services and apps out there that can route your phone services through internet service providers.
