Iphone 2.0 won't work with car stereo

I Updated to 2.0. And my iphone works with my ipod stereo i bought 5 years ago, even with 2.0, but i bought a brand new stereo yesterday and when i plug it in through USB it says Invalid. Any ideas?

The manufacturer of the new device may not have catered for iPhone use and as it does not say compatible you can't really complain. Some speaker makes have done this due to the fact that the radio signals from the iPhone interfere with the audio from the speakers.
The older speakers came out before the iPhone existed and therefore it will not have anything preventing it from working with the iPhone, which I suspect the new speakers do.

IPhone 4s bluetooth won't work with Clarion FZ709

Actually the issue is that the iOS5 won't work with the Clarion FZ709 - it sees it and then immediately drops. I've reset the Clarion, reset the iPhone, same thing - it can discover it, then it loses it seconds later. Of course, dropping the version back to 4 isn't going to work for my iPhone, since it's new. I guess I could use my 3GS again, but I'm spoiled now with the features of the new phone.
A brief search discovered this issue was mentioned here months ago - will there be any update to address this? It's apparently causing issues for many other manufacturers and OEM stereos too.

Same problem with my Clarion FZ 709 after upgrading to iOS 5. Before this upgrade all works fine. Its no problem with the new iPhone 4s, its a problem with iOS 5. I could re-produce this problem with the new 4s and the older iPhone 4. Both are running iOS 5 and are still not longer able to connect via Bluetooth. After initial pairing the connection get broken after a few seconds. Yesterday i have upgraded both devices to 5.0.1 but the problem is still not fixed. From Clarion i got the feedback that they are not able to fix this issue because it seems that the problem depends on a change by Apple done within the new iOS. So hopefully Apple will recognize this problem and deliver a bug fix within the next iOS upgrade.

IPhone 4S doesn't work with car stereo

For about 2 years I've been using my iPhone 3GS connected to the USB input of my JVC car stereo. I just upgraded to the 4S and the stereo doesn't recognize the phone at all. Is this a bug of some kind?
Thanks!
Randy

To update my original post, I discovered that my 4S does work with my JVC car radio when I use the Apple USB cable that I use to sync with my PC. This happens to be the cable that came with my 3GS, but it works fine to sync the 4S. I don't know whether the short non-Apple cable I had in the car is broken, or whether something about the iPhone has changed to make it obsolete. In any case, I'm back in business!

IPhone 5 A1429 won't work with SKT?

Hello, I recently bought an iPhone 5 online. I did a bit of reading before I bought it and found that in order for it to work in Korea I'd need to get the model A1429 GSM version of the phone to use with SKT. So I got that model from Negri Electronics, and took it into the SKT counter at Osan AB in Korea, and they tried 4 times to make the nano SIM card work with the phone, but there was no luck. Did I misread something online and order the wrong model? What are some possible reasons for the phone not working with that carrier? According to the Apple website that model should work with SKT so I'm really confused. Any help would be appreciated.

It is possible that the iphone is broken? or the model is not supported my A1429 GSM / CDMA, and the one shown on the site A1429 GSM)?

IPod no longer works with car stereo since upgraded MBA & iTunes

My iPod classic has worked just fine connected to my car stereo since i bought it last june. I just bought a new Macbook Air (OS 10.7.3) & installed ITUNES 10.6.1. After I synched my ipod for the first time its recognised by the car but i get a "can't read data" message. I re-formatted my ipod but its exactly the same. Do you think its the upgrade- or the cable? Has anyone else found a bug with this version of Itunes or the OS? I have my doubts a cable would make the difference, and my old ipod nano that i haven't synched for a while works fine.

If standalone works fine, then, most likely the 30 pin connect may have some dirt or lint, prevent data transfer.
You can try to blow it clean, if you have a can of compressed air or gas.
Alternatively you can connect it to the car stereo and do the RESET, while connnected.as follows
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

The Reset sequence may send a signal to the Car stereo to do the right thing

IPod Touch 3G w/ stopped working with car stereo/docking speakers

After I upgraded to OS 4, my iPod Touch 3g stopped working through the USB port of my car stereo (just says "reading" and never progresses from there). It also stopped working through the docking station (basically a large clock radio) that I bought for my living room -- it will recharge and play music through the speakers but the docking station and its remote can no longer control the music (can't advance to the next song or anything else), so I have to physically change things on the ipod itself.
I was told by Crutchfield (where I'd purchased the car stereo) that this was a known problem with Apple -- that with OS4, many of the devices that previous worked with iPods no longer worked, and that this would be resolved in a later version of the OS that would provide some backward compatibility. However, I can't find anything at all about this.
If anyone knows more information about this, or has a link to where I might be able to read more, I'd appreciate the info. I selected and installed both the (almost new!!) car stereo and docking station specifically because they allowed me to connect and control my iPod, and now I've lost that functionality and the $$ I put into those devices (over $300 total)!

I apologize for posting a bit early. Found an Alpine manual online and i needed to set the AUX port to off. They also recommended a reset of the Touch. After doing these two things it is now working. Maybe this will help someone else.

IPod Touch no longer works with car stereo after 4.0 update

I updated my iPod to 4.0 a couple of days ago, and my Hyundai Santa Fe's built-in iPod interface no longer recognizes my iPod's music - it just says "empty iPod" or something of that nature. Is anyone else having this problem?? What should I do?

Add me to the list. Brand blankety-new ipod touch that after 4.0.2 wouldn't work with the Subaru-factory-installed ipod connector in my '08 STI. The shut-it-off-and-restart-in-the-car method at least made it able to play music again but still no recharging.
To add insult to injury I did the have-an-Apple-GENIUS call me thing. The first thing was that they called me....for about 1/4 of a second. The phone blipped for less than a ring and then I got an email saying, "Oh, we TRIED to reach you and you weren't there. Why don't you call us?". So I called and was immediately put on hold. When one of the geniuses finally picked up, I described the issue with great patience and his insightful answer was, "let me put you on hold while I talk to my supervisor." So I sat on hold for five minutes until...they just hung up...no answer, no, "gee we think you're SOL"....just "click". Thanks a boatload Mr. Jobs.

IPod Touch Stopped Working With Car Stereo

Hello Everyone,
I have an iPod Touch 4th generation that was working perfectly with the after market car stereo in my truck The Stereo is an Alpine CDE-102 and I am using the iPod interface and correct cable. After upgrading to IOS6 the car stereo fails to reconize the device and "SEARCHING" for a few minutes then gives the response "error - 1". Has anyone else seen this or know of a solution? Thanks!

I apologize for posting a bit early. Found an Alpine manual online and i needed to set the AUX port to off. They also recommended a reset of the Touch. After doing these two things it is now working. Maybe this will help someone else.

Bluetooth will not work with car stereo after IOS6

I upgraded to ios6 and lost a number of Bluetooth functions with Alpine car stereo 1. Can no longer control playback from head unit. 2. Track info no longer displayed on head unit. 3. When head unit finds iPhone it no longer begins to play automatically.

If this is an after market car radio, you can go to the manufacures website, and they should have an update available for your head unit. Some manufactures dont have it available and you may need to replace and update your head unit. If this is factory installed, go to your local dealership, and they can do the update for you.

MP3 CDs won't work in car stereo

Hello. I've tried multiple burning tests with iTunes, Toast, and the Finder. I'm trying to get an MP3 CD to work in my 2007 Mazda 6 (five CD changer). The manual says it will read MP3 CDs, and I am burning MP3s... not AACs. When the CD is loaded into my car, I only get track 1 without any audio. Time does elapse as if it is playing something, but I don't hear anything. If I try to skip to the next track, it stays on track 1. I can even search through track 1... but still no audio.
Has anyone had any luck making an MP3 CD with Mac software? Would you mind listing the steps you took in order to create one? Thank you!

Here's my hardware and software:
iTunes 7.0.1 (up to date)
Toast 6.1.1 (up to date)
Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5
Memorex CD-R 52x blank media
HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4165B
Here's what I did before my first post:
1 - Burned two songs with iTunes using the MP3 CD option. Maxium Possible speed. Closed and verified the disc.
2 - Burned two songs with the Finder as a data disc. No folders. Maxium Speed Possible.
3 - Burned two songs with Toast as a data disc. Mac & PC option. No folders. Maxium Speed Possible.
4 - Burned two songs with Toast as a data disc. Mac & PC option. No folders. 8x speed.
5 - Burned two songs with Toast as a data disc. Mac & PC option. No folders. 4x speed.
6 - Burned two songs with Toast as a MP3 disc. No folders. Maxium Possible.
7 - Burned two songs with Toast as a MP3 disc. No folders. 8x speed.
8 - Burned two songs with Toast as a MP3 disc. No folders. 4x speed.
I'm out of options on how to test this thing. Before I figure out if MP3 CD players only work with certain burners, cds, etc. I do not have another MP3 CD player to test it on in my house. My car is the only player that reads MP3 CDs. Any more ideas? I really appreciate your help!

Bluetooth on iPhone 6 does not work with car stereo

I have used iPhone 4, 4S, 5 and 5S on my car - my own and my families phones. They all work as intended with regard to music and most importantly telephony. My car (FORD S-MAX) has buttons etc. for phone navigation. My daughters and wifes 5S's still work.
When I paired my new iPhone 6, the pairing itself was successful, but it does not work at all.
1) Incoming calls show my own telephone number, regardless of who calls
2) I cannot use the car buttons for anything, neither pickup, hangup or anything else
3) Regardless of what I do, the Podcast starts playing, if I choose Bluetooth as sound input on car. If I click pause on Podcast, it resumes after a while, sometimes immediately.
4) If I use the phone to dial a number, the sound is not in the car, even if sound source is Bluetooth/Car. If I select something else and back to car, the sound is in the car.
Hopefully this is soon to be solved! Or is there already a solution out there?
Best regards
Matt, Denmark

My iPhone 6 pairs just fine with my 07 Z4 ,no idrive etc just the basic B/T install on a Business standard radio set up with e snap in connector for the iPhone
but not yet an iPhone 6 snap in
You may need to ensure you clear all ol pairings from Beemer they have a limited number of pairings that can be stored at one time
To dispel all the bad press my 6 also happily paired with my '13 X1 without any issues and with the correct snap in also plays audio
The issue is usually with iDrive which BMW do have some issues with

IPod touch won't work with car's USB port after sw update

I've been using my iPod with my 2011 Honda CR-V's USB port to play my music through the car's audio system without issue since I bought the car. This stopped working after the latest iPod software update a few days ago--the msg on the audio screen says it's now "unsupported". Is there anything I can do to fix this without a full restore? Why did it change? Thanks for any help.

Hey there,
Glad to hear we're getting closer. Looks like you're connected to the network, just not able to utilize it's internet connection.
Let's check your iPod's IP addres. Tap Settings > Wi Fi and look for your network. To the right, there's a blue circle with a white arrow in it. Tap that circle. If the IP address starts out with 169.x.x.x, it is a self-assigned IP address. Since it came from the iPod, and not the router, it can't be used.
I would recommend resetting your iPod's network settings:
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
When the iPod restarts, reconnect it to your network and try Safari again.
If it still isn't working, try powercycling your router and resetting those settings at the same time.
1. Turn off the router
2. Reset the network settings again, as indicated above
3. Turn the router back on
4. Reconnect the iPod to the network
If it still isn't working, let's check your iPod's software version.
Settings > General > About
If you've upgraded to 2.0, the latest version is 2.0.2. If you haven't upgraded, the latest version is 1.1.5. If you're not at either of those numbers, connect the iPod to your computer and use iTunes to check for software updates for the iPod.
Regarding the router settings, I'm not familiar with your router manufacturer. I'd check their website for instructions on that. I think at this point you wouldn't really need to change any settings, but just check for firmware updates.

S4 won't work with car adapter but my old phone will. How do I fix this problem?

When I plug the adapter into my S4 no music will go through my car speakers. However, with my old phone it works. How may I fix this problem?

brownmde - That definitely shouldn't be happening with your phone. Let's see what we can do to get your phone and car working together. With regards to the adapter, is this a 3.5 mm aux cable going into the headphone jack of your S4, and into your car's audio head unit? When you plug in the cable, does your phone recognize that a cable/headphones have been plugged in? Do you hear audio out of headphones that are plugged in to the S4?
