Iphone 6 to Kenwood in dash TV

Ok, so I'm guessing with the swap to the lightning port video out to a car's head unit got a little screwed up some how. I use to run netflix fine off of my 4s to my Kenwood, and there are no special fix cables that are supported by my head unit since it doesn't have HDMI.
Has anyone found a work around? I was wondering if it would work if I ran my phone to the lightning to HDMI converter, then run an HDMI cable from that converter to an HDMI to A/V converter, then from that converter to the head unit. Yes, it's a lot of extras, but I'm curious. I'll probably just buy an HDMI compatible head unit soon, but I'm wondering if this chain of converters would play video on the head unit.

Hi Deggie...Thankyou for your help...much appreciated. I have been out of range most of the day but home now and I am all connected to the Bluetooth. Only one issue...even though connected it is constantly searching for other devices. Next issue is to get the blootooth to recognize my music This was all so easy with the iPhone 4S...plug it in and away it went.

IPhone 6 screen artifacts

My 1 day old iPhone screen has low contrast dashes running across it. The direction varies from horizontal to vertical.
I first noticed it when I took a picture, then zoomed it up.
Sometimes on the startup screen, it shows up as bands.
The dashes/bands don't appear on all screens. The camera screen doesn't show them while in the viewfinder more. It does show them after a picture is taken.

I Have an iPhone 6 64GB and I am experiencing all the same issues with the random rotation locking and inverted video picture. I too have checked to make sure he rotation lock option is not selected. toggling it does not correct the problem. Shaking the phone to accentuate the orientation does nothing. The only fix for screen orientation and the inverted video problem is a generally a power recycle.
The new phones (6) have a new accelerometer chipset from Invesense. Their sensitivity can be adjusted (different cycle rates). I suspect that higher cycle rates consume more power. So since the environment for starting up a camera or flipping a screen is a low accuracy situation, my wild *** guess is that there is a software glitch related to feedback from the chipset in certain settings. That may be why everyone is reporting variable times when the problem manifests itself.
I was hoping it would be on the bug list for iOS 8.0.2, but it's not.

Activation Error: Could not complete the iTunes... (help!)

Activation Error: "Could not complete the iTunes Store request. The store may be busy. Check your Internet connection or try again later"
Ok that is the error I get every time I set my new iPhone in the dock.
Details:
I bought the 8GB iPhone at the Kenwood Mall in Cincinnati OH, brought it home installed version 7.3 of iTunes, plugged in the dock and the iPhone, I went through the activation process and after agreeing to all the terms and licenses, the iPhone said "activated," but iTunes was still trying to connect to AT&T for something and eventually timed out. I remove the iPhone and it seems to sync and all features seem to work fine including making and receiving calls. BUT... everytime I place the iPhone in the dock, I get the above error. I click OK and every works fine. This happens everytime I place the iPhone in dock. How do I get rid of it??? Is there still something else that needs to be done on my account. BTW, my Internet is working fine, as I am typing this message via my Internet connection in IE on apple's site.
Thanks
Dell XPS Gen-2 Windows XP Pro 1GB Mem, SP2

I bought the 8GB model, only had a 45 minute wait in line at ATT store. Performed activation via iTunes over 10 hours ago with porting of old T-mobile number. Still receiving message that activation is not completed. Called ATT and after 3 transfers, 35 minute hold times and then a recorded message that "due to extremely high call volumes" we will not be able to answer your call" it then proceeds to disconnect you. Finally kept trying and talked with ATT rep. in portability and they confirmed my porting has been approved but that my account still shows iPhone not registered. They then provided 877-800-3701 for problems with iPhone activation. After speaking with this representative, he would not work with me until I provided Web Order #. I told him that I purchased the phone in person at store, so he said that I would need to contact the store to obtain this number and without this number they could not verify that I had the phone and therefore it couldn't be activated. I called the store and left message. A store rep. called me back and told me that I would need to contact that same 877 number as they could not support me. ***!! To make matters worse, my old phone is now been ported and deactivated so I am phone-less and have a iPhone sitting in the dock that is completely useless. I am very disgusted at this point and don't know what to do. I was not expecting such an awful customer experience with an Apple product. Anyone have any thoughts? I drove by the AT&T store and there is a huge line of buyers, so I am not sure what to do at this point.

Would like confirmation that phone numbers delimited with decimals aren't searchable

Just came across an interesting behavior and am looking for confirmation from others. I frequently enter phone numbers with a decimal as the delimiter intead of a dash (i.e. 215.555.1212) in Gmail contacts. When they sync with the iPhone, they appear to have dashes as delimitors when viewed on the iPhone. However, when I attempt to search for the last four digits of a phone number, I get no found contacts with that number. If I switch the delimiter to a dash in Gmail and resync then I can search on the same 4 digits and IOS will find the contact.

I'd say you were told wrong, and there was more damage than was immediately evident. You're probably going to need a new keyboard.

Email to SMS

Can i make notification email by SMS (for free) on my nokia 2690...? And open it as text message...?

10digit [email protected] for text and mms.att.net for pictures (but doesn't seem to be working right now for iPhone's). don't put dashes in the number

Making CD that shows track and artist info

I'm kind of new to itunes so bear with me. I know how to makes CD's but I want to make the track / artist info appear on my Kenwood in dash unit like it does on my Nano. How do I make the artist info and song title appear on my car unit? When I burn a CD it only shows the song as Track 01 etc.. I would like the song / artist info to appear on my display. I searched the forums but could not find anything. Any help would be appreciated.

First look at the manual for your radio and see what type of playlist tags it takes.
Id say it will only show info for a MP3 CD. To burn a MP3 CD, goto edit Preferences>advanced tab>burning tab and change it for "Audio CD" to "MP3" cd. A MP3 cd will only burn a MP3, if you have a song thats not MP3 (Like songs bought on iTUnes store) they will not go.
to convert a NON itunes/online bought song, goto edit.preferences.advanced.importing and make sure its set to MP3 and not WAV or AAC. Hit OK and now you can rightclick the NON itunes online bought song and hit "Convert to MP3"
Now for purchaced songs from iTUnes, follow the directions above to change or make sure your importing settings are set to MP3. Make sure its also set to burn in a "Audio CD" format and burn the bought songs to CD. Put the CD back in, manually enter in the info like artist, songs name ect ect, then Import it to iTunes, now you have a copy of your purchase in MP3 format and can burn it to a MP3 CD.

The Bluetooth low energy protocol is not backward compatible with classic Bluetooth protocol. My iPhone 4s can not find my sonny in-dash player. However my iPhone 3GS does it. Very disappointed with this. Any idea how it can be fixed???

Hello,
You are correct, Blue tooth low engergy, BTLE.(only) devices are not backward compatible with Classic bluetooth and cannot connect.
However the Apple 4S and above have Bluetooth 4.0 support.. Hardware wise it has bothClassic Bluetooth, like the 3GS, as well as Bluetooth Low Energy. There is no good reason why your 4s cannot communicate to your Sony in-dash player using the Classic bluetooth that resides in the 4S.
I know that this does not answer the why it does not work, but it should work. Do you have to somehow re-pair the new phone up to the player? Not knowing the model of the Sony it is hard to investigate.
And I hate to ask but are you sure that the Bluetooth radio is on in the phone?

IPhone 6 won't play with Kenwood stereo USB port. Help !!

I have a Kenwood KDC-BT743U Stereo in my car, which has a front panel USB port. I've been able to connect my iPhone 4S and play music from my iTunes catalog as well as stream music from Pandora, Soundcloud, Tune In Radio, Mixcloud et al, without any problems until yesterday.....
Now that I've upgraded my phone to a iPhone 6 and when I connect it to the stereo via the USB port, it doesnt play at all. After about 2 minutes of trying to connect , I recieve a 'USB Error" . As I stated, I've had no problems with my iPhone 4S, which I've used with this same stereo deck for the last two years without any problem what so ever.
I'm looking for some guidance on next steps to take in order to fix the problem? Did Apple change the spec in some sort of way? Do I need to go to Kenwood for a firmware update (their website provides no information about iPhone 6 compatability with any of their stereo's which is very odd to me) ?
Please help, my life in the car during long commutes is just not the same......

Possible Solution:
1. Go to Settings > General
2. Go to Restrictions
3. Enter Passcode (possibly x2)
4. Enable Restrictions
5 Disallow CarPlay
6. Reset Network Settings (Not 100% sure if this step is needed)
7. Have at least 1 song in Apple Music App
8. Have Iphone at Home Screen
9. Connect Apple Original Cable
10. That 1 Song should start playing
11. Open Prefered Streaming App and hit Play
Carplay negatively affects USB connection with Non-Carplay USB Audio Receivers.
I have the Iphone 6 with 8.3 iOS connected to Pioneer avh-41000dvd car stereo and the above solution fixed USB audio issues, including Error code 22-65.
If you are having issues upon reconnect, disconnect and bring Iphone to home screen and reconnect.

My iPhone 5 stopped playing on my Kenwood car stereo after an update?

I have an older truck that I purchased from an individual who had upgraded the stereo to a Kenwood.
I was able to hook up my phone with a USB cord - my previous 3GS, and my current 5 and play my music through the receiver.
During one of the updates - Maybe to 7.0 - I lost the ability to maniplulate the music via the stereo control - the controls on the radio. Now, it just says "READING" and never works at all.
I've tried a network reset, to no effect - and I must say, the iPhone 5 is pretty danged finicky when hooking up the USB cord in general. I bought a couple of NON-Apple cords from ATT, and I have to plug and unplug it a few times to get the connection to take. I have the original USB cord that came with the phone, and IT takes some plug-and-unplug tries to get it to connect sometimes.
Any bug fixes from the Apple wizards?

Start by ensuring there is no lint or fluff in the lightning socket (solves most problems of this description )
If squeeky clean then restore as new and start again ,multiple updates on updates can have this effect

Iphone 4 when updated to 6.1.2 wont play video on kenwood in car

When I updated my iphone 4 to the 6.1.2 software it wont play the video in my car anymore. The sound still works but no video, I dont know what happened. I have gone through the kenwood forums and they are saying that it had something to do with the update that apple put out. Any suggestions?

That's why I disdain the cloud and prefer terra firma with a good recent local backup on a computer I control. But anyway...
As far as the phone is concerned, its data is kaput. Will have to be patient and reload/salvage what you can from the ancient backup. Like I said, phone is empty, nothing to save from there, so if it does not restore at first try, don't be afraid to stop it, wipe it clean and start again.

Kenwood KCA-iP500 ipod interface and iphone?

I have a kenwood touchscreen navigation/headunit and want to buy the Kenwood KCA-iP500 ipod interface to use with my iphone. This interface is for audio only. Will it work with the iphone? Anyone from apple want to chime in? Anyone out there who has tried this? I emailed Kenwood but m guess is that they will not know.

IPhone 4s - Need to increase font size and add dashes to Phone Contact Details and Recents

I am in my 40s and need reading glasses. I can't read the Phone>Contacts details/numbers because the font is too small and there are no dashes between numbers. Same applies to Phone>Recents but there are dashes that make the numbers more readible. 3rd party apps such as Big Names, Big Contacts don't apear to be maintained to work with new IOS releases. Changing fonts in Accessbility doesn't alter the fonts in Contact details nor Recents. Zoom is inconsistant and inconvient.
This should be a simple fix for Apple or a 3rd party app that will help retain middle aged iPhone users and attract new users. No one want to use there reading glasses to read their phone. Andriod makes font selection a snap.
Thoughs or adivce?
Thanks...
Neil

Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom. Turn it on. That or try bifocals (I've had to wear bifocals since I was in my mid 30's) or consider monovision contacts or lasik.

IPhone 6 with iOs 8 and Kenwood car stereo

My new iPhone 6 (using iOs 8) will not work with my Kenwood car stereo correctly. It says the bluetooth is connected and tries to place a call but the calls are not connecting to the stereo. Is anyone else having this trouble and know how to fix it?
I tried forgetting the device (the stereo) and re-pairing, which caused the phone to randomly try to connect to nothing through the stereo.
Any ideas?

Does your stereo have a USB port, and if so, have you tried to connect via USB?
I'm having issues even with the USB on my Kenwood. Check out this post: iPhone 6 won't play with Kenwood stereo USB port. Help !!

Personal Hotspot disappears from Kenwood DNN991HD. Connects once then if Kenwood turned off then back on later iPhone shows as out of range until hotspot is switched off then on. Have reset net settings. Kenwood connects automatically to other saved

If I start my car in the morning the Kenwood unit will connect to my iPhone and the network functions all work. If I shut the car off for a while and restart the network list on the Kenwood shows the iPhone as out of range. I have to cycle the personal hotspot on and off...sometimes a few times before it shows up again available in the network list. It works fine when connecting, disconnecting, reconnecting automatically to my home WiFi Network.
My iPhone is also connected to the Kenwood with Bluetooth...would this make a difference?
I have tried resetting network settings but the problem remains.
Anyone with ideas how I can fix this

Hello bobbenedetti,
