How come my iphone ipod isn't recognized by my car

My iphone ipod feature is not being recognized by my car any more.  Is there some type of setting that needs to be checked/changed?

Hello Lawrence,
I do have AppleMobileDeviceService.exe running.
My USBs are plugging in straight into the laptop.  All 4 work.  Just today, I synced my iPod with multiple USB ports.  It works for the iPod, but the iPhone won't pop-up.  The iPhone does not appear in iTunes as a button anywhere.
I am unable to use another computer for this.  I can actually go into iTunes, add file to library, and add photos that way.  So, it's recognized by my computer.
This should have been seperated.  Basically, I don't have another computer accessible to me to back-up sync on iTunes with.
The last part means in iTunes, I can click "File > Add file to library" and the iPhone is shown as a camera icon.  I can click on it and have access to photos.  I can add those photos to the iTunes library.  That's about as far as the connectivity goes with the iPhone right now.

  • How come my e-reader isn't recognized?

    I've installed ADE 3.0 and connected my e-reader (Sony) to my Mac. My e-reader should be recognized automatically. But this is not the case. Can anybody help me out here? Thanks.

    Well, the manufacturer doesn't supply drivers for the device.  It should just mount in the same way that an arbitrary flash drive is mounted by default kernel drivers.  I did contact them, and there reply was:
    "Hello
    You just need to connect the book to your PC. Then in the book confirm connection to the PC. In the system should have a disk called Flex One."
    But, I rebuilt the PRAM again, and now it recignizes it.  I guess if it doesn't at some point in the future, I just need to rebuild until it works...

  • My 5th generation iPOD isn't recognized by iTunes?

    When I plug my iPod into my computer, iTunes opens, but my iPod isn't recognized. Anyone else have this problem or any suggestions?

    By all of those suggestions, do you mean the ones I mentioned in the paragraph about or the ones in the support article I linked? Does this 5G iPod via still power on?  DId you try connecting it to another PC or Mac to see if it is recognized there?  Did you check the dock connector for any signs of debris or damage to the pins that could be preventing a connection to your PC?
    Any idea how long the average iPod should last? Ours if from 2006.
    Most people never get the iPod to last 6 years, so consider yourself lucky. That's quite a time span!

  • My ipod isn't recognized by any computer & itunes, and desplays a sad face.

    i have had my ipod mini for eleven months and this is the first problem i have had with it.
    i went on a vacation to flordia, and while i was there my ipod crashed. i had dropped it once a few days before the crash, but it continued to play my music after i dropped it.
    when i go to turn it on the apple logo appears, then the depressed ipod.
    my ipod isn't recognized by any computer or tunes. when i plug it into my computer, the 'do not disconnect' screen doesn't even appear. all that happens is the apple logo screen, then the depressed ipod screen, then a recharging screen appears that is stuck on the lowest point possible.
    i have already tried the "five R's" and everything else in the support pages, and so far they have helped me none. all they do is bring you around in huge circles, and you end up on the page you started on.
    i run a windows xp, and have everything fully upgraded.
    i know, i know, many of you are having similar problems, but could you please only post if you have an answer, thanks.

    I know!!! It worked just fine one day, computer recognized it and i could add or remove songs at me leisure, but now I can't even charge it on a computer becasue it doesn't exsist to it. I also tried the five steps, but you can't restore the settings on it if the computer can't find it. Finally I had my sister bending the charge piece in the ipod just for it to show up, I restored it and it didn't make a bit of difference! I lost all 800 songs on it but I still can't charge it or add songs. If you find anything out, let me know!!!

  • How comes the Ipad mini isn't Retina Display if it has the same resolution as the New iPad?

    How comes the Ipad mini isn't Retina Display if it has the same resolution as the New iPad?

    The iPad mini doesn't have the same resolution as the "new iPad".
    iPad 3 & 4 (retina) = 2048x1536 pixels
    iPad 1 & 2 (original) = 1024x768
    iPad mini = 1024x768
    Apple likely didn't put a retina screen in the iPad mini to keep cost down and to have an option to upgrade the iPad mini to a retina screen down the road, in a year or two.  It could be however that the pixel density of 2048x768 at 9" poses a problem for the viewer, in that text and features might be rendered too small or too thin for the average buyer/consumer.

    How come my iphone 3gs camera takes pix even w/o me pressing the "shutter button"? this doesn't happen everytime tho. just there are times when it does.
    could my iphone be defective?

    Hi,
    sorry, I really don´t understand what you mean. - Can you please explain
    in an other way?
    Does the shutter button on the screen work sometimes and sometimes not?

  • How come sometimes my iPod Touch gets stuck updating an app and then just deletes it?

    How come sometimes my iPod Touch gets stuck updating an app and then just deletes it instead?
    The update bar on the app gets stuck on empty and then the next time I sync the app gets deleted.
    It is really annoying to lose all my data when updating an app, and it has happend more than once!
    Any idea why it does this? I am scared to update my favorite apps for fear that they could be deleted.
    -Sam

    I never had an app being deleted.  You can always udate the app on the computer and then sync.

  • IPhone/iPod Touch not recognized by PC running Win7/64

    How come my older PC running windows 7 (64bit) stopped recognizing my iPhone and iPod Touch running ios 6.1.4 when I connect to a USB port? How can I fix this?  Also wonder why the wireless sync does not seem to function.

    Sure enough, a second cable works just fine! Is this a common problem  The "broken" cable still charges but apparently has a USB comm problem.  Is this a design weakness in the cable? To my knowledge it has not been mistreated.

  • My ipod isn't recognized by itunes

    My ipod isn't being recognized by my itunes account. Every time I plug in my Ipod, nothing happens. My ipod doesn't have the connected screen and doesn't charge, and my computer basically doesn't acknowledge its existence at all. I've tried restarting my computer many times and have reinstalled itunes twice to no avail. Please help!

    i do not know if this works, but i found this in another post:
    I Have An Answer!!! After numerous hours of going through these posts, spending hours going through the trial and error of fixing, an answer has finally appeared!!
    This blog http://echeng.com/journal/2006/09/23/itunes-7-broke-my-ipod-nano/
    Has a solution of changing the disc format thing me jig here it is:
    Start -> Run -> compmgmt.msc
    Drill down ‘Storage’, highlight Disk Management
    Plug ipod in. Wait.
    Make sure the computer management window is the topmost window. If you don’t, you won’t be able to get in there and change the drive letter of your ipod. The ipod will disappear out of the computer management window once itunes rejects it, or accepts your acknowledgement that it’s rejecting it.
    Then I think i right clicked on the volume (or something) and changed the drive letter.
    Just to make sure windows remembered my change, I ejected the pod and plugged it in again. Looks like it was mapped to the letter I had specified. Don’t know if this setting will hold after a reboot/cold boot.
    You may want to scroll through the comments- For vista instead of run go straight to control panel, system and maintenance scroll to the bottom and create and format hard disk partitions, plug ipod in put it as G and hey presto!! hope this works for others.... before syncing with ipod if all this works you may want to download music rescue (brilliant and reliable used it a few times!) and copy all your music from the ipod after formatting.
    Really hope this helps someone out there as it did me and looking forward to hearing if it has.
