IPhone connection problems to 2012 Honda since iOS 8.

My new iPhone 6 does not connect consistently with hand-free system on my 2012 Honda. Prior iPhones running iOS 7 and earlier worked great. The iOS 8.1 update didn't help at all. The phone seems to work fine with the Honda system, but often I can't play audio content from iPhone thru Bluetooth. The system indicator on the Honda screen shows the phone is connected, but when I turn on the audio in the car and then try to play content from Audible app or iTunes, it says there is no device connected. Usually I can turn off the car completely, restart and get a connection - but not always.
Also, the Honda system used to receive text messages from the phone that it would play back thru simulated voice audio. That doesn't work at all anymore - system doesn't acknowledge text messages ever, let alone play them.
I've also tried tethering the iPhone to the Honda system via its USB connection, and that seems to work equally inconsistently.
Help, please!

  • I noticed that Find My iPhone on iCloud hasn't worked since iOS 8 came out. My device uses iOS 7. My question is: do I need to upgrade my device? If not, what should I do? I do not wish to upgrade my device.

    I noticed that Find My iPhone on iCloud hasn't worked since iOS 8 came out. Whenever I try to use it, it always says "All Devices Offline." This is regardless of whether I am in a good Wi-Fi zone or not.  I like to use Find My iPhone to remotely track my battery charging status whenever my phone is charging in a different room. That's been really handy, which is why I really need to get this fixed. No matter what computer I use, the problem is always the same.
    My device uses iOS 7. My question is: do I need to upgrade my device? If not, what should I do? I do not wish to upgrade my device, especially considering the bad things I've heard about iOS 8.
    Feedback would be welcome ASAP.

    You don't need to update to iOS 8 to use Find My iPhone.  If you haven't already tried, go to Settings>iCloud>Find My iPhone and turn it off, then reset your phone (hold the sleep/wake and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release).  After it restarts, turn Find My iPhone back on and see if it works properly now.

  • I have an iPhone 4S and a 2012 Honda CRV . The streaming BT music is fine but now suddenly it stopped displaying song info on the screen. It worked for about 10 days and then stopped. Any thoughts?

    I think that we all know the answer to this one.
    Unfortunatley the device is concidered damaged by water. Apple can do an out of warranty repair which would cost $199. Generally they would just replace the device in this case for the $199.
    The alternative is to Purchase a new device.

  • Problems with regular Texting since iOS 7.0.3

    Hello, I have an iPhone 5s recently upgraded to iOS 7.0.3 via OTA update. I never use iMessage, I have an unlimited text plan, so I always have used SMS with everyone. However, after this last update, I have problems with regular SMS. I can send SMS to everyone as usual, but can only get text messages from some-all of them using iPhone 5 with at least the lastest iOS6 version. I have noticed then only way to text them now is to turn on iMessage, otherwise I keep missing their replies. These are people, that until the last upgrade, I was texting with on a regular basis with no problems using plain SMS with iMessage option OFF. Contrary to most, I don't want to use iMessage but rather use regular carrier provided SMS.
    For instance, both my son and daughter use an iPhone 5 with iOS 7 (but not the latest patch 7.0.3) installed, I can text with my son OK, but can't get any texts from my daughter, can only communicate with her using iMessage-BTW, we are all on the same network on a family plan. Can't understand this at all. Since I can SMS with some, but not others I don't think this is a problem with my carrier but rather a problem with my phone since the update to 7.0.3, and they say I am the only one they have problem with texting with and I am the only one on the new software version.
    Anyone else has noticed this issue.

    I wonder if this may have something to do with iMessage on my Macs. Recently updated to Maverirks and the iMessage app on my Macs was set up to my email and mobile phone (it wasn't before). I wonder if this is so, then whoever I send an SMS to that has iMessage on and replies back, will be picked up by iMessage since is turned on on my Mac, since replies go to the Mac but not my phone. If the sender has iMessage off, I get the SMS fine.

  • IPhone connection problem

    I have my adsl router connected to Linksys. So Internet works fine on my desktop while the iPhone connects to the wifi router but can't download or surf the Internet through it.

    Let me know the model number of the router? What is the IP address on the iPhone when it says connected?You can try the following combination of settings:
    # Open up the browser and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page.
    # Lower the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) from 1500 to 1400 or less (usually found on your routers main/ basic setup page)
    # Make the Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 6, 9, 11..
    #Adjust the following advanced wireless settings:
    ~~ Lower the beacon interval from 100 to 75
    ~~ Lower the fragmentation threshold from 2346 to 2306
    ~~ Lower the RTS threshold from 2347 to 2304
    Now check the connectivity status...

  • IPhone 6 connection problem with 2012 Acura TL

    New IPhone 6 will drop a call on a regular basis and then pick up the call 4-5 seconds later while driving in my 2012 Acura TL. . I downloaded the latest OS 8.1.1 and it appears to have made it worse.  Have tried deleting and reconnecting the phone to the car's Bluetooth but no improvement.  Is this an IPhone issue or an Acura issue?  If an IPhone issue any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Define "sync with". Does it establish a bluetooth connection for handsfree use?  Are you having a problem with contacts? The iPhone supports PBAP (Phone Book Access Protocol) for accessing contacts. PBAP will pull your contact list automatically at connection time. If your system wants you to transfer your contacts, it's probably using rSAP (Rrmote SIM Access Protocol). The iPhone does not support rSAP. Most modern smartphones don't base on my understanding, but I'm not an expert on Android so I won't swear to that.
    You may be able to get your system updated by the dealer.

  • Iphone 5s won't stay on since IOS 8.2

    Ever since I did the latest update my phone will not stop turning off. Also, when it is on, the battery drains very quickly, and it randomly has trouble working with wifi it appears to be connected to. Is there any way of fixing this that doesn't involve erasing everything, because frankly I'm not sure it'll stay on long enough to back everything up?

    Hello there, mdalcorn.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for troubleshooting issues with your iOS device intermittently shutting off:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Bm10 iPhone connection problems

    Hi, I am having problems connecting my iphone to my Sony Bm10 receiver. The bm10 is connected to my mac and works fine with that. But when i want to connect it to my iphone 4s, it doesn't pick it up, so i can't connect to it. My iphone bluetooth works, as it connects to a different bluetooth wireless speaker. So any advice on how to connect would be much appreciated.
    Solved!

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    As I understand you can't even detect it in your iPhone? If not, make sure the BM10 is set in pairing mode.

  • IPhone connection problems with Windows 7

    Hello there and greetings from Sweden! Before summer holiday, I installed Windows 7 on my laptop.
    It is really fast in comparison to Windows Vista, and I am looking forwards to its release.
    I have found no major flaws within the system, except one.
    Being an owner to a iPhone, I have installed Itunes on my laptop since I wish to syncronize(?) music to my phone.
    Windows 7, on the other hand has caused a problem to Itunes. Connecting my iPhone causes the phone to charge, but it does not turn up in Itunes.
    I have tried with both my iPhone a friends phone with the same result. I have also re-installed Itunes but with no success. It doesnt connect at all (even though both phones charge).
    It worked fine in the past on both a Vista and XP system.
    If anyone has had any similar problems, please post how you solved it. It would be appreciated =)

    Hi FabianLef
    Take a look at the last couple of posts in the following thread.

    Hope this helps.
    Thank You for testing Windows 7

  • HT203040 iPhone 4S Camera app not working since iOS 8.2 update.

    Since downloaded iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 4S the camera won't work. It is just black. Sometimes we can scroll between photo, video etc, but most the time the whole thing is locked up. I have tried rebooting the phone. Nothing works.
    Please Apple Support Team fix this issue.

  • 3602I and or 3602E Iphone Connection Problems

    Hi,
    We are using two WAP devices and are both experiencing the same issue.
    WLC Controller 2504 (running 7.3.101.0)
    WAP Devices 3602I and 3602E
    The issue we are having is that Iphones cannot connect and or at times see the SSID's that are enabled. Sometimes the SSID's will show up and then dissapear.
    I can have the Iphone sitting right next to the WAP and it not even show up and when it does show up when I try to connect it either fails or the connection is so bad that when doing a speed test it times out.
    I have 3 different Iphones some running the latest IOS 6 and some still on IOS 5 for testing.
    Android Devices are working flawlessly
    Windows and OSX laptops and desktops are working flawlessly
    I have tried a number of options that are suggested here in the community but nothing seems to be working.

    Hi Scott,
    I have tried using the settings that you suggested and although I am able to connect the speeds are pitiful. I have attached screen shots of my speed test and configuration within the controller. I am having great results with 5GHz devices. IPAD, MacBook Pro, Mac Book Air, Android devices.

  • Time capsule iPhone connection problem

    My 3rd gen time capsule is creating a network extended by an airport express that runs my MacBook Pro and Apple TV. I cannot get my iPhone to connect to the network. I don't think I have changed any of the settings from when it was working perfectly. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

    Did you upgrade the iphone to iOS 6? I am trying to help another user here with the issue. If it worked fine beforehand his issue seems to be iOS 6 is not handling the WPA2 passwords properly.
    Try turning off security just to see.
    It is always comforting to know you are at least not alone. And Apple's testing regime is to now use all users for beta testers.

  • Iphone connection problem with USB

    ok so my phone is not detected on windows vista
    it always says USB device not recognized blah blah
    but when i connect my brother's iphone or friend's iphone it always is able to detect it and load the driver properly so my itunes can connect
    so i look at my device manager when their iphones are connected and there is a yellow exclamation point under portable devices > iphone and it says that code 31, driver did not load properly
    also, when i connect my phone through USB on a macbook it doesn't work but when i connect via firewire it does work.
    would having a 6 pin to 4 pin firewire adapter be good enough for me to be able to at least sync my phone.
    and does anyone know anything that would help with the USB problem.
    do i need to ssh into my phone or something and see if my driver is working correctly
    i've had this problem for some time

    The only step left is to remove iTunes and i would recommend all Apple products like quicktime and the like (as sometimes you will get a DEP error if you haven't done so, prevention better than a cure and all that)along with removing the drivers in Vista and re-install all that from scratch.
    If this doesn't work then i would suggest a call to AppleCare or a visit to see a Genius at an Apple store as it could very well be hardware related.
    NOTE:
    This is all assuming you are using the same logon to windows when you are connecting both your iPhone and your brothers along with using the same cable/dock and that you have either logged into Vista as an Administrator or have chosen to run iTunes in Administrator mode.

  • IPhone 4 won't complete sync since iOS 5.0

    My unlocked iPhone 4 wont completely sync with iTunes since I have upgraded to iOS 5.0.
    USB & Wi-Fi sync both produce same results.
    It gets stuck in "step 8 of 8" forever

    I struggled with my computer and itunes not recognizing my phone for a week and here's what i finally found that worked for me.
    if you have windows go to http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Search.aspx?l=en- us&s=apple&page=2&type=Hardware and download the Apple Iphone 4 hardware.
    then, if it doesn't automatically take you here, go to http://support.apple.com/kb/DL926
    and download that. 
    Let me know if it works for you.
