Hooking up my ipod to my jvc car stereo

I have hooked up my ipod to my deck and all i get from my deck if the word check that just flashes. My ipod starts to recharge the battery. When i disconnect the ipod my deck then says no ipod. I have hooked another ipod to my deck and it works fine. I have also reseted and reformatted my ipod and it still will not sync with my deck what do i need to do to fix this problem. also my ipod works fine other than not syncing with my deck.

Who installed the car stereo? If you don't know the installer I would take car and iPod into Car Tunes or other 'Reputable' car audio installer and have it set up in proper working order. It may mean getting another new stereo but there is only one way to do this and that is to get it done right.
Hard, but I've found no other way around this type of problem than to hand out the cash to get it fixed.

JVC car stereo won't recognize Ipod Nano

In 2006 my husband bought me a JVC car stereo with a USB port. So, a couple months ago, I finally went and bought a new Ipod Nano. When I plug the Ipod into the stereo, it says "READ FAIL" on the stereo screen. I went to BestBuy thinking I needed a different cord or something, but they told me it was a problem with new Ipods. The technician even went and got his older Ipod and plugged it in and it worked great. I contacted JVC, but they were no help at all. Can anyone help me? I am so frustrated!

If other iPod plays on your JVC, then it is nothing wrong with JVC.
It is either your Nano having a problem or it is not compatible with your JVC.
See update your Nano to the latest version helps (do a restore for your Nano on your computer).
If still does not solve then send your Nano for service if it nothing relates to the compatible issue.

TS1702 why does my iphone 5s not display apps to my jvc car stereo, when the same apps work with my 4s?

why does my iphone 5s not displaying apps on my jvc car stereo. these apps worked with my iphone 4s?

Blackberries were designed at a time when cellular data was very expensive. They don't do nearly as much as an iPhone, in part, to conserve data use. All modern smartphones will use more data than a Blackberry unless you do almost nothing.
You do not need to quite apps. Almost no apps run in the background.
Here are Apple's tips on iPhone battery use:

If you are really only getting an hour of battery usage and not just engaging in hyperbole (), you should make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store.

IPod and JVC Car Stereo random resetting problem

Hey all,
I recently bought my first iPod (yay!), a 30gig 5th generation. I also had a JVC KD-PDR30 cd player installed in my car so that I could hook up the iPod to it and eliminate all the random cds cluttering up my vehicle. It works great -- most of the time... the last few days I've my iPod has been randomly resetting itself while connected to the car stereo -- it's connected through the dock port (not the headphone jack) and works 90% of the time. Even still, this is frustrating. I almost want to just connect it from the headphone jack to the aux in on the car stereo. Anyway, it only seems to do this while it is connected to the car stereo. I've never had a problem with the iPod resetting while using it outside of the car. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Apple community!!!

I had the JVC radio with iPod connector which worked just fine for my old iPod. When I upgraded to the iTouch I had to put in a new JVC stereo. The old version does not work with the iTouch (the same issues prev. stated). The new stereo has an USB hookup on the front. It plays the iTouch, but occas. the song or book will skip. At first I thought it was when I turned corners, but realized it was just random. A bit annoying. I looked at other stereos, but I could not get the iTouch and Sirus in the same unit, except for the JVC. If you can live without your iTouch I would wait until JVC or Apple address this issue. I could not live without either (I hate commercials!), so I made the jump to the first generation. I know better.

Hooking your iPod mini to your car stereo

Hi. I was wondering if someone could tell me what is the best product to hook your iPod mini up to your car stereo. I have looked at some but I would like some opinions. I want a good product not something that will break right away. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

b Various Methods to Connect to a Car Stereo System, or Listen to Your iPod in the Vehicle
b Best:
Direct connection via the dock connector or headphone jack of your iPod, to the mini-jack input (or AUX RCA input jacks) of your car stereo. Not many low/moderate-end cars have this feature yet, but it is becoming more popular. Some aftermarket auto stereo units may have this feature.
There are also some after-market, moderate to fairly expensive direct interfaces, that hook into your existing car stereo to provide a high-quality, direct connection. Most will also power/charge the iPod. Pretty slick, but can be pricey ($80-$300). If money is no object, a clean way to go. Not very portable from car to car if at all.

http://www.theistore.com/ipod2car.html
http://www.mp3yourcar.com/
b Better:
Connect your iPod to a cassette adaptor and play your tunes through your car's cassette player. Some new cars no longer come with a cassette player, so it may not be an option. It will provide even better audio quality if you can run the audio feed out of the dock connector (see the SendStation link below). Can be portable between cars that have a cassette player and also be used in your home cassette system.
b Good:
Attach an FM transmitter to your iPod and play the tunes through an unused FM station. Convenient, but wireless FM transmitter signals are susceptible to static and outside interference, and can vary in strength and quality depending on your location. Some noticeable degradation and distortion, depending on the quality of the transmitter, the sensitivity of your ears and the airwave congestion in your area. Highly portable between cars, and may be used in a home system. FM transmitters that need to be plugged into a DC auto jack may not work in a home environment (without some sort of adaptor).
b Marginal:
Attach an external speaker system to the iPod and play it in the car. Workable, but not too good - unless you spring for a $300+ Bose (or similar) system. But why? Only if your vehicle has no Stereo system, perhaps.
b Brave Techno-Geek:
This site gives some direction on adapting your own car stereo by yourself: http://www.whatsmyip.org/ipodrx8/ . Risky, but it has been successful: Seanski, "silent track" #2, 11:59pm Jul 15, 2005 CDT
Whichever you choose, power the iPod through your cars DC power -- either from a power adapter, or as part of the combined audio adaptor. Have a method to secure the iPod to the dash/console/etc. See the reviews for all the various accessories at the iLounge
You will also get better audio output if the dock connection plug is used, rather than the headphone jack. See this URL for a novel adaptor: https://www.sendstation.com/us/products/pd_lousb.html. Others types are also available via this site.
I have read positive and negative reviews of each method, and within method there are great variations in performance of different manufacture's systems and peoples opinions of their performance. Some cassette adaptors/FM transmitters work poorly, some better.
FWIW: I have the iTrip Mini & the Newer Technology RoadTrip!+ FM transmitters, a Belkin cassette adaptor (used both with & w/out the PocketDock) and two vehicles with the BlitzSafe direct interface. Using the same song in the same car, I found that the FM transmitters worked, but not as good as the cassette adapter via the headphone jack. Using the PocketDock on the cassette adapter resulted in a significant audio quality improvement. As expected, the Blitzsafe direct connect was exceptionally better than everything else: less tinny, a more warmer/richer sound, and close to true CD quality.

Ipod nano 7th gen - downloaded music using itunes (mac) and have now discovered it won't play on my JVC car stereo.

It says it can't read the files and when I looked up the car stereo manual it says it won't read any files not done on windows media. Is there any easy solutions around this? as it was purchased solely for use with the car stereo... :-(

If you want to make song files from your iTunes library available on your car audio system, and it connects using a USB port, a new iPod nano is a very expensive way to do it. If that's the only reason for getting the iPod nano, you should return it and get a cheap 8 or 16GB USB flash drive instead, which costs less than $20. Here's one that barely sticks out of the USB port.

You can then leave it connected in the car all the time, except for when you want to update the songs. An iPod is more fragile (especially screen and battery), and you'll have to always remember to remove it, in case the car overheats or freezes. It would also be a target for thieves.
For the audio file format, I can't believe any car audio system would ONLY play Window Media files, and not the most common type of audio files, MP3. Songs purchased from the iTunes Store, and those ripped from music CD (using the default settings), are in AAC format. It's possible the car system does not play AAC. So, I would try songs from your iTunes library that are in MP3 format.
You can use iTunes to convert songs from AAC (or any iTunes supported format) to MP3. So, if MP3 works, and you need details on how to convert audio format using iTunes, please post back. You cannot convert to WMA format (which is Windows Media audio) using iTunes.

IPod Not Charging on JVC Car Stereo

When I upgraded my iPod to the 5th Gen, it says "This device does not support Charging" when I plug into my car stereo. The older model worked just fine. Anyone know what is differnet? Is there a setting I need to change? Help!?

found out this is a cable issue.Older cables will not charge with newer IOS updates.Replacement cables to your system are available online, I got mine on crutchfield,USA SPECS cable for $19.

IPhone 5s no longer works with my JVC car stereo after upgrading

Hello!
I updated my iPhone 5s to ios8 last Wednesday (the 17th). When I drive, I synch my phone to my car stereo system (a JVC unit -- I can't recall the model number but it was installed just a year ago). After the upgrade, it worked fine. But on Sunday morning the phone experienced a hard crash and I had to reboot it by pressing the home and sleep buttons together. The phone came back without any further incident.
When I tried to make a call later that night I found that instead of my phone being active on my phone it tried to play music instead. I couldn't figure out how to stop this, so I turned off Blue Tooth. And now, when I try using the phone the Blue Tooth seems to synch up, but the phone cannot dial out -- I get a "called failed" message on the car stereo screen. If I look at the phone, I see that the phone has been activated, but it isn't dialing out. And then the phone will make bogus calls to an unrecognized number, or to a non-number. It will do this every 30 seconds or so. If I dial the phone manually, the Blue Tooth seems to work and I can talk to people hands free as usual. But when the call ends (and I don't always have a "call end" button showing on the JVC screen) the phone will again attempt to dial a bogus phone number.
The only thing that has changed is I upgraded my iPhone to ios8. Are there known issues around Blue Tooth connectivity? I also reset my phone to factory specs and reinstalled ios8 from my PC via the Lightning cable. This didn't change anything (I did that on Sunday evening). The Apple trouble shooting pages are of no help with this (I've already looked at them). I would really appreciate any help anyone could give me -- I think I've tried everything I know to do.
Thanks!

I upgraded to ios 8.0.2 and it still won't work. The phone will synch to the JVC blue tooth, but will not dial out. The phone is activated and it has the screen that indicates it is dialing but it isn't. And then the blue connection drops and won't reconnect.

Should I be able to listen to music from my iPod 5 on my car stereo?

I have a Pyle stereo in my car. I am having trouble listening to my iPod using the USB on the stereo. The Pyle support team says
It can't be done, that the USB is for mass storage devices. Isn't that what an iPod is? I am a little suspect of they're answer, especially after reading some posts. Can someone give me the scoop? Can I or can't I listen to my Ipod through the USB....PLEASE??

"that the USB is for mass storage devices. Isn't that what an iPod is? "
No. It is not what an ipod touch is at all.
You can only listen to it via the USB if your car stereo supports it. If it does not, then you cannot.
It sounds like your stereo does not support the ipod via USB

Connecting iPod video to Blaupunkt car stereo

Blaupunkt sells an adapter to connect iPods to their car stereo. Part number: 7607540500. It is compatible with the factory (Blaupunkt sourced) car stereo of my Fiat Panda model year 2005. The car stereo 'sees' the iPod as a Blaupunkt CD changer. It works well with the previous iPod but absolutely no-one can tell me if will work with the current video iPod that I'd like to purchase.

I talked to Blaupunkt support in the states and they say that they are aware of the problem! Now what kind of an answer is that? I agree with you, Blaupunkt should get on this problem and fix it. Blaupunkt catalog actually states that the Ipod interface works with any Blaupunkt head unit with CDC control since 1998+. On the interface box it says 2001+. The simple fact is they should get there "stuff" together and fix it!

Docking Ipod Nano to usb car stereo

My wife purchased an Ipod nano (3rd generation) as a gift for me. I already have a generation 1 (only use it in car) and have no problem with it, this new one just WILL NOT WORK in the car, does anybody know why & how this can be resolved? NB - I connect it via the stereos built in USB socket.

Nano 3G only works with USB 1.1 and 2, the older ones used to work with USB 1.0 and that is probably the explanation for what you are seeing. Apple's compatibility table doesn't show that USB 1.1 works, but I know by experience, my PC has both.
Of course I don't know what kind of port your car stereo has, so I might be wrong.

IPod compatibility for a car stereo system

Hello,
I am searching for car stereo system that has ipod compatability for my teacher's birthday. Do you have any auggestions? I'm kinda clueless on this stuff.

You need to be more specific. If you're just looking for some kind of interface to work with a radio he/she already has, then I would need to know what kind of radio it is, or if it is a factory radio, I would need to know Make, model and year of the vehicle to give you some ideas. If you are looking for a new radio, then most of your aftermarket radio manufacturers make iPod compatible radios that simply need to have a cable added and you can plug an iPod directly into the new radio and control it with the radio. This allows text to be shown on the radio display as well as charges the iPod. I currently work with Alpine and Kenwood and both of them offer a full speed interface. Full speed is kind of important as some of the older interfaces were slow and cumbersome to operate.
Give me a little more info. and I'm sure I can help you out.

IPod Classic connectivity to Car Stereo problems

I have an iPod Clas. The software version is 1.1.2. My new car stereo will not recognize anything before 1.2. Is there anyway to upgrade the software version of my Classic?
Thanks.

jfallon_bonedoc,
If iTunes does not see any firmware updates for your model of iPod classic, and you are positive your iTunes application is up to date, then I'm afraid there is no way to update to another firmware version. Sorry.

Connecting iPod Touch to bluetooth car stereo

I recently got the Sony MX-BT2700 for my car and am loving being able to play music off my touch wirelessly. My question though is if there is a easier way to connect the touch to the stereo. Right now every time I get in the car I have to go to settings>general>bluetooth and tell it to connect to my stereo even though it's already paired. Is there someway that the iPod can be set to automatically connect to a bluetooth device when one is available? My phone (not an iphone) is able to do this without touching anything as soon as I get in the car. Thanks for the help!

Ipod Adapter for Pioneer Car Stereo

Hi there experts and wannabe experts.
I just got a new Pioneer car deck with a USB iPod connecter. When I connect my iPod (which is 4-5 years old) an error message appears. According to the manual, my Ipod is too old. So the good people at Pioneer want me to buy what appears to me to be an external drive that I would basically transfer all of my music over to. The price is around $130. This seems ridiculous to me and I am thinking there must be some other kind of adapter out there. I'd rather get a new Ipod than that dumb Pioneer dealie. BUT, it seems kinda stupid because we have two older Ipods with tons of memory and they both work great.
Any ideas?
Much appreciated!
