Iphone and integrated car stereo

I have several apps on my phone that have an Ipod button for controlling the music while playing the stereo in the car. Before the last update I could have the GPS or other similar program running on my Iphone, but could also navigate to my Itunes and select the music/playlists, etc.. Since the last update, I can still navigate to my songs, but I cannot select the artist or playlist while the Iphone is plugged into the car stereo. If I remove the Iphone from the car jack I can navigate the songs fine.

I don't know if the you haver the same radio as my 08 Maxima but if you go to your local Nissan dealer you can get the iPod interface installed. Interface System for iPod® is not available for HYBRID models or models with factory navigation system. Or your radio should have the AUX jack that is in between the "Clock" and the "Scan" button and should say "AUX IN" if you have that then all you need is a 3.5MM wire (3.5mm to 3.5mm cable) example

Iphone and my car stereo

I just bought an iphone 3G and want to know if I can connect my iphone to my car stereo system (08 Nissan Altima Coupe w/factory Bose sound system) so I can listen to my downloaded music. I believe my car is equipped for this but need to know what adaptor to buy. Any one with input would appreciated!

Iphone 3g and Panasonic car stereo problems

Hi,
I have an iphone 3g and a Panasonic CQ-RX400U car stereo. The stereo has a front-panel USB port. I've been using the cable that came with the phone to connect to the stereo and everything has been working great. All of the stereo's iPod controls handled navigation through the iPhone perfectly, and the unit muted when a call came in, etc...
Just today though, it stopped working. The stereo gets stuck, alternating between "READING" and "PAUSE" with no playback. Nothing I tried has worked. I think this may have been the first time I've tried to connect since I upgraded to 2.1 on the phone.
Any ideas or similar experiences? Thanks for helping!

Well
I did some more tests on some of my other buds Iphones
The 2.1 Operating System is definitely the culpret.
Everyone First Gen Iphone and Iphone 3G I tried that had ver 1.xx and 2.xx worked below version 2.1
So, I hope apple fixes this and we get some help bud, cause they screwed something up bigtime when they upgraded the OS.
Hopefully we will have a answer tomorrow when everything opens again. Very disappointed in Apple.
Some of my friends won't even touch the new update since they got their phones because they are afraid the 2.1 will kill their accessories usage in there other brands of USB Decks they just bought for their cars over the past few months.
I strongly agree with them at this time not to Upgrade, whether it fixes stuff or not, would rather sacrifice features and fixes than spent more money on the **** accessories.
Very disappointed that Apple can kill off accessories like this and wonder why people are switching phones due to the cost of accessories that work and die with these new iphones.
We wait here patiently apple for you to reply and see whats causing this stupid error.
THANKS

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 !!

Connecting iphone 4S to car stereo problems

I have a new iPhone 4S and when I connect it to my car stereo via a Monster cable I can hear static. My wife's older iPhone does not have this issue. Her phone plays, just as my old iPhone 3, perfect music. I have checked my connections with the new phone, but I still get background static. Do I need to use a different cable with the new iPhone?

Just read all of the history on the issue. I have already posted feedback to Apple to document the issue. Thanks. I will also try to use a different cable and see if that works.

IPhone connectivity to Car Stereo -- POSSIBLE SOLUTION

I stumbled across a possible solution to the iPhone not working with some car stereos. Granted, I have a cheap name brand stereo ,but it has the full ipod interface built-in. It's a Valor NVG-710W ($999 from frys).
My iPhone worked in my truck from day one, but after a week, i made some playlist changes, and it quit working. After a trip to the Apple Store, to no avail, I was determined to figure out what happened. Making sure it wasn't the radio itself, I tested my wife's iphone, and it worked. I started tweaking the settings and playlists.
What I found is this: the car stereo doesn't comprehend "Smart Playlists." Everytime I sync'd a Smart Playlist to the iPhone, the stereo would not connect to iPhone, but if I took the Smart playlist's off, it would connect immediately and start playing thru the stereo.
Hope this tidbit helps someone out.

That happens to me occasionally. Have you tried power cycling the iphone? that seems to fix it for me when it happens.

Iphone and Apple Home Stereo Box

I bought the Apple home stereo unit a few years back and have always used it to play my ipod and and recharge it. I just bought the iphone and when I put it in the slot the phone said that this device does not support charging the phone. Why would this be. IT works with my wife's Touch. Why would it not charge the phone, it's an Apple device after all

Apple has been gradually removing firewire support for iPods over the last few years.
Initially, all iPods charged and synced via firewire. Apple switched from syncing via firewire to USB with all iPods and continued to support charging via firewire.
The first generation iPhone supports syncing via USB and charging via firewire - many car kits and your Apple home stereo support charging via firewire.
Apple removed support for charging via firewire with the iPhone 3G and will follow suit with future iPod models. The firewire pins were removed from the dock connector with the iPhone 3G. The next generation iPod Touch will not support charging via firewire either.

How do I play my iphone through my car stereo

I want to play my Iphone 4S through my car Vauxhall Corsa stereo. There's no socket on the car stereo. Do I need to buy some hardware?

The aux input works great if you don't need to control the iPod from the radio, I connect it this way routinely and have a separate charger when needed. The OP, however does not have an aux port.
Using earbuds or headphones is illegal in most states and I know a few that have been ticketed for impaired/reckless driving. Get into an accident wearing them and you could open yourself up to lawsuits because its considered impaired hearing. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. You can't fight the impaired hearing thing, don't even think about it. Claim to be senile and they'll pull your license right there and you will be walking for awhile.
Drive safe.

Charge iphone 3gs using car stereo USB sony xplod

i am using my car stereo [sony xplod] for playing music via bluetooth, can i recharge my phone using USB in built with stereo, is it safe?

The iphone and ipod are not the same device.
Perhaps your car stereo supports ipod and not iphone. Check with the manufacturer of your car stereo.

Playing my iPhone through the car stereo

I am looking for a new car stereo and the biggest feature I want is to be able to play music off of my iPhone on it. Almost every model I've looked at says it plays wma/mp3/aac. Most of my music files are mp3s, but the last few CDs I ripped in .m4a (Apple loseless). After researching it, I kind of have the impression that m4as are converted to aac, and will be played, but cannot for the life of me find a place that definitively says this. Can anyone help me out?

Not sure if this info is necessary, but some players connect to the iPhone through the headphone jack, some through USB, and most can do either.

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!!!
Theo

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.

Connecting my iPhone to my car stereo?

I need something that plugs into the iPhone and then goes into the charger of my car...some kind of transmitter.NOT iTrip or that other crap, something that works well..I don't really like griffin, but let me know what I should use.

I just bought an interface from Dice electronics. They make car specific interfaces. I have not installed yet, but will tomorrow. The person who recommended it is a trusted friend who is my gadget guru and says it was easy to install and works well. But you have to be comfortable with pulling out your radio, etc.

Deperately need help with my iPod and Pioneer Car Stereo

I just bought Pioneer's newest deck from Best Buy. The Model number of the deck is DEH-P6800MP. It has a mini jack (2.5 mm stereo jack) on the front of the deck that you can plug your iPod into. I purchased the little adaptor that allows me to just plug the iPod in using the Headphone Jack. It works great. I can use my click wheel to navigate the menus and the sound is awesome...except for one thing, it only plays through the right side speakers. I thought maybe the Fader needed to be adjusted on the deck but everything is dead center. I thought maybe something was wrong with the deck but the Tuner and CD player both work perfectly. I even tried using different cables with no success. When I called Best Buy they told me they were familiar with the problem and to download the newest software for my iPod and it should fix it. It didn't! I am so frustrated by this. I paid alot of money for this deck thinking I wouldn't have to buy any additional interfaces and would never have to deal with an FM transmitter again. Can anybody help?
Fifth Generation 60 Gig iPod Windows XP

After plugging my walkman in and experiencing the same problem, I figured it must be the adaptor. I went to the local Radio Shack and picked up a mini-jack adaptor that was indeed Stereo. Thankfully it worked!!! I can't tell you how happy my family and I are to have all our music available in the family vehicle. Thanks for your help and @#$% Best Buy for selling me not one but two car stereos under the false pretense that I wouldn't need anything else to hook-up my iPod and then not having any idea how to help me when I needed it.

IPhone attached to car stereo (Honda Accord)

Hi,
I've had a car cable for my iPhone for several months, and although it doesn't work fantastically, it does work most of the time.
I've just upgraded to firmware 2.1 on my iPhone and now it doesn't work except in shuffle mode, or if I play a track (or podcast) and then plug it in to the car (a pain on long journeys when I want to listen to several podcasts)
Anyone else having issues since the upgrade?
Cheers

It seems like every other time there is a new version of the iPhone firmware or an update in the firmware to my car radio the interface stops working.
I have since changed to a hardwired dock connector in all my cars. These ALWAYS work.
Just about any car audio shop can install these at a low cost.
They are _unaffected by firmware updates_, and they charge my iPhone and iPod at the same time. So when I get out of my car I have a fully charged iPhone.
Go hardwired, it will ALWAYS work.
