IOS 4.x.x. not working with some car stereos?

This last friday I bought a Pioneer car stereo, the 4200ub to be exact, and whenever I try to use the usb input on it it gets error-19. Error-19 is a communication error with the stereo and the iPhone. I've tried new cables, to reboot the phone, unplugged it and plugged it back in, restarted the car, and restored the iPhone. I've posted on the Crutchfield forums about this issue and they seem to think its an issue with the iPhone new firmware, iOS 4.x.x. They say it has screwed up compatibility for most alpine car stereos and some pioneer and clarion. I don't know what else to do but, if this issue isn't fixed soon I guess i'm going to have to rma the radio.

I bought an iphone 4 at the end of December so I'm not sure what iOS I was running. I just bought a new car stereo system 2 weeks ago to use with my iPhone.
I spent 2 grand on Alpine head unit and Focal components and sub. My phone worked fine through the USB on the drive home.
That night I updated to 4.3.1. Problems appeared immediately. Static hiss and pops and crackles. I cannot listen to my music. Terrible Apple. Terrible. Please fix. I chose my stereo based on iphone compatibility and ease of use through USB connection. The update rendered it all useless the day I spent a ton of money.
I've left feedback. I guess I'll post in any related forum. Let's try to make some noise so Apple can address this issue.
PLEASE!
- A poor pathetic fool who spent way more than he should have on his car stereo only to regret it after updating to iOS 4.3.1

  • Why is my ipod in not working with my car stereo?

    i have the stereo hooked up and everything but my ipod doesnt work with the stereo, but my ipod nano works fine with it. i dont understand what its wrong.

    Like I said, the Classic doesn't seem to work with many car head units and other 3rd party accessories (something to do with the way Apple have changed the way an iPod recognizes and interacts with these accessories).
    Have a look at some of the other threads here that also discuss this.
    You would be better off contacting the maker of the car stereos.

  • IPod Mini not working with new car stereo

    I just got a 2007 Sienna in which the audio system includes an AUX port for connecting to my iPod. However, when I connect the two (using a RadioShack Gold Series audio dubbing cable recommended by RadioShack), nothing happens. My iPod is not locked, and it works with headphones and also through the FM transmitter (although the latter not very well at all).
    Is there an iPod setting that I am missing? Do I have the wrong cable? Is there a problem with my car's audio system?
    Any advice/suggestions would be very much appreciated.

    Doh. Never mind. I just figured out it was a volume problem.

  • Why is my iPod touch not working with my car stereo after the update?

    I updated to iOS 6 and now my iPod will not play when I plug into my car stereo with the USB port and cable. I am very frustrated!

    You can try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    However, sometime an iOS update breaks compatibility. If that is the case you will have to wait for either the car manufacturer or Apple to issue a an update to correct the problem.

  • Genius not working with some songs

    why does genius not work with some of my songs?

    For songs which the genius can't come up with a play list it seems the artist is either too small, too new, or the metadata doesn't match. For example, I had "Cardigans - Love fool" selected and I noticed iTunes had it in my "Songs your missing". I changed it to "The Cardigans - Lovefool", and then selected "Update Genius". After this iTunes removed it from the "Songs your missing", and was able to create a playlist.
    The problem is I don't know how many songs iTunes can't figure out. I wish I could create a smart playlist of all the songs which the genius couldn't figure out. The problem isn't so much that I can't get a playlist from a song I selected, but I know if the genius skips a song, then it won't include it with other recommendations. While the genius feature is great, I'd hate to find out in six months that it's been ignoring 75% of my library.
    In order to get some of my indy music to play with the genius playlist, I create a smart playlist which includes a genius playlist, and then a list of artists which it can also choose from.
    While it's great that the genius can figure out information from the cloud, it could spend more time looking at patterns within your own library. If I create a playlist of New Jersey rock bands, it should be able to figure out that my indy artists are related to the mainstream artists in the same playlist.
    The good thing about the Genius is it understands that people listen to multiple genres. I like to listen to classical when I'm studying, and folk music when I'm surfing the web. Last.fm will create a recommended playlist of half classical and half folk. The genius doesn't look at your whole library and come up with something that tries to match all your tastes. As a result of it using genres to cluster music, it doesn't mix holiday music in with your playlists like other recommendation services do.

  • Ios 7 air drop not working with mountain lion air drop

    Hi, didn't see an iOS 7 forum, so I'm posting it here since I was testing it out on my iPhone 5.
    I tried to use air drop to share photos b/w my iPhone and my MBP running mountain lion, both has air drop enabled, but I couldn't see either on the air drop window.
    is iOS 7 air drop not compatible with OSX air drop??
    bluetooth and wifi are on for both machines.
    thanks

    I have a Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Folio i5.  Also, even before reading your suggestions, I moved my phone hand set away from the iPad.  There aren't any other sources within 10 feet although the phone base is within 30 feet.  The WiFi router is about 5 feet away.  Haven't had a chance to "troubleshoot" the connection.
    Have you any suggestions for Air Drop or Air Print?  My Pixma MP 450 which in excellent working order isn't compatable with either OS 10.9.x or iOS 7.
    Canon suggested a Pixma MG 3520 which was hellatious to set up, requiring a big download and both a USB cable and Ethernet connection to the router, and isn't working with the iPad. 
    Clearly, technological "advancements" are for teeny boppers who spend their time taking phone pictures, sending mindless messages and listening to music.  Oh, to be 14 again.
    Sorry about the bitters.  Rare opportunity to vent to adults.

  • My DVD player does not work with some DVDs

    My DVD does not work with certain DVDs.  Do I need to get it replaced or is there some other problem.

    Could it be that they're out-of-region DVDs? Which model MBP do you have (15" late 2011, for example) and which version of OS X are you running?

  • IMessage not working with some contacts

    I have ipad2, iMessage not working with contacts except between my son and my iPad.  Get a red exclamation mark and send button is greyed out.  Have rebooted, reactivated apple id and email address.  Running latest software. Can anyone help please.

    Imessage only works to other folks who have a device on ios5, and who have activated i message.  In their set up, theyndeclared one or more specific 'receive at' addresses.  Are the folks you are trying to reach on apple devices with i mesage?  The red exclamation means, i think, that the apple server did not find that address as registered.

  • Why the iPad internal speakers not working with some applications and key sound?

    My iPad1 ' internal speakers not fully functioning. It is working with music and video, YouTube , but not working with applications such as games.
    Also with key pad sound .
    Please help me in this regard.

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • IOS 5.0.1 ate nolonger works with my car stereo

    This weekend I upgraded my iphone 4 ( not s) to iOS 5.0.1 with the battery fix. Today it will not work with the stereo controls in my 2006 mini cooper with the Harmon Kardon Stereo and the steering wheel controls. My mini playlists are not responding on the preset buttons, I cannot skip forward or back from the controls on the steering wheel or the head unit; and it does not automatically play when connected to the car.

    NEVERMIND! IT WORKS NOW!
    For some reason, when I upgraded to iOS 5.0.1, my iPhone didn't have any music on it i.e. zero songs were on my iPhone. I didn't notice this until now, and this was probably why my Volvo said "iPod Unreadable" and prevented my audio apps from transmitting audio to the car stereo. I added music to my iPhone and !voila! everything works just like before- my Volvo plays/controls music, displays song info, and audio apps work just fine, like before! I now have to retrack my bug report and feedback to Apple.

  • IPhone 4 not working in docks/car stereo anymore...

    Hi guys,
    I've done a lot of searching and it seems I'm not along with this issue, although none of the previous solutions have worked for me.
    My iPhone 4 (os6) has recently stopped working with docks - in that, it'll charge but now allow any music playack, all of a sudden
    This is a major problem for me as it also means it no longer works in conjunction with my car stereo!
    So far I have;
    -: cleaned the dock connector on the iPhone and on the car lead
    -: tried different iPhones in my car (with the same setup - 4 + os6) in my car and they work fine
    -: tried resetting and restoring my iPhone from backup, twice
    -: tried the iPhone in different docks at home with no luck
    Any idea why this is happening? Any suggestions?

    Hey guys.
    I have an alpine W404 deck. It exhibited the problems you mentioned on this thread. The only way I was able to fix the problem was to do the following:
    1) If you have an iphone. Backup all contacts, notes, emails and calendar to your MAC or mobileme as this process will wipe all of the data and apps from the device. Regardless of type, backup ALL apps to itunes. Perform a FULL sync.
    2) Connect the idevice to your machine and launch itunes.
    3) Click on restore to factory settings in itunes.
    4) When it asks you if you wish to use the settings backup. ANSWER NO.
    5) Once this is completely performed. Sync your iphone back up with mail, apps etc etc etc.
    VERY IMPORTANT!
    6) Once you are satisfied that all is back to normal with your idevice, bring it to your car and press and HOLD BOTH the off switch and the main (Square) button simutaneously...keep it held down even when the slider to switch off the device shows up. Once the screen is completely black. Turn it back on and connect it to your deck.
    PRESTO.
    It works.
    Hope this helps,
    Have a great day!

  • Iphone 4 not working with iOS 6, Iphone 4 not working with iOS 6

    iOS 6 is not working on my iPhone 4. When the update/restore finishes it gives me the (-1) error and cannot finish the update. Please help.

    Hey.. I have had this issue since yesterday afternoon.. Some people are saying to keep restoring again and again until it finally goes through.. I have done so like 10 times on my MAC and then I used my husband's PC and tried it 4 times.. No success.. I called apple support, but no help came from there at the end, and the only thing they were able to suggest to me is to sell me a new phone just like mine for a discounted price.. **** NO
    Anyways after about 18h of search and stress I came across this link:
    http://techglobex.blogspot.com/2012/06/downgrade-from-ios-6-beta-firmware-to.htm l
    That will only make it possibe to go backward.. You will end up back with the IOS 5, but at least you will have a working phone and it will bring back all your contacts and everything else that you ever had backed up on icloud and on your computer. There might be descripencies with the Applications but again this is an issue easily solved, you can always download them back.
    Two more things: One, you do not have to download the old version of the itunes, the newest version worked for me without any issues
    When choosing to download the older IOS 5.1.1, you will need to figure out whether your carrier is GSM or CDMA but you can easily google this info online..
    Well hope that will work for you like it did for me
