IPhone no car audio

iPhone 4S no longer plays music or pandora over the car speakers via auxiliary or USB connection

I'll start with... Did you turn it off and turn it back on? From there check the connection, see if it will play to AUX speakers or through the computer
Hope this helps!!

Iphone compatible car audio

I am trying to research car audio that is Iphone ready. Is there such a thing out there? I know there is plenty Ipod but I would like the capability to use my phone while in my truck.

A lot of manufacturers have bluetooth built into there car stereos, with these it's kinda a trial and error system. Otherwise some manufacturers have iPhone/iPod integration units JVC and SONY are two of these check around, (manufacturers websites are great for this) i use my iPhone currently with a SONY unit through bluetooth and it works great, just be aware that either way at least currently until the 3.0 update the bluetooth connection will be a little limited as it supports the voice function only not contact transfers or any of that "fancy" stuff not that i can work out why people want a list of their phone contacts on their cars headunit anyway. Definitely keep an eye out for the works with iPhone logo that should appear on most compatible products though this usually only applies to products that use a dock connector and i have found very few headunits that have this sticker as they use bluetooth, you just need to trust the manufacturers description otherwise.

IPhone and car audio

Newbie here. Like most people i'm going to ante up and buy the iPhone 3g tomorrow. One key reason is that i can store all my music and replace my CDs in my car stereo. I'm going to purchase a car stereo that has and ipod connection, though I've got several questions regarding the phone use while it is connected to the stereo.
1) Can someone tell me what happens when you're playing music on your iPhone through your car deck and the phone rings?
2) Do I have to always have a bluetooth headset on to answer the phone when it's connected to my car stereo? Or can I pick the phone up and use the handset?
3) Does the music pause and let me answer the phone?
4) Or do I have to disconnect the phone and manually answer the line?
5) When I finish my call will the music resume where (if it can) paused?
Sorry to be so long winded, but the music integration into my car audio is a key feature I like; and if I can do both with just an iPhone that would be great.
Thanks in advance

You'll be happy with the way it works.
When the phone rings, the music pauses and you can answer the phone using either your earset or directly talking into the phone. If the earset is connected via bluetooth you will see a screen on the phone allowing you to select iPhone instead of bluetooth as your choice of interfaces. When you hang up the call the music will automatically resume where it left off.
If you do not have the bluetooth device in the car with you the phone behaves the same way, except it does not ask you if you want to use bluetooth or directly talk into the phone.
Bottom line is it works intuitively and I believe it will do just what you are hoping it will.

Connect iphone to car audio

Trying to determine what adapter I need to connect iphone ipod to play thru car stereo speakers... 08 Saturn Vue DOES have an audio jack, but I have no clue what size it is OR what size I need for the iphone. THANKS

Question about Apple Watch/iPhone and Car Audio/Bluetooth

I have a Toyota Vensa and when I get into my car, the iPhone properly connects with the car's Bluetooth for phone calls and audio. If I then receive a phone call - both the car/iPhone and Watch will ring.
But if I answer from the Watch, is there then a way to switch the call to the car's bluetooth system like there is is you answer with the iPhone?

If your iPhone is already auto-connecting itself to your bluetooth hands-free system in your car, you don't need to do all this work (and risk an accident while driving).
This is what the "handoff" feature is designed for:
If you answered on your watch, but really wanted it on your car's hands-free system, simply swipe the phone icon up on the iPhone's lock screen -- this will immediately transfer to the hands-free system! The phone icon will appear automatically on your iPhone's lock screen, whenever you are on a call on your Apple Watch.
Note: the "handoff" feature goes away if the iPhone is unlocked -- so if it's already unlocked, you just have to lock it again or you won't see the phone icon to swipe up. The iPhone doesn't require (or allow) you to unlock it for the audio call handoff to work.
The instructions DannyWoods posted work fine once the phone is unlocked, but again, I think it's more risky than just doing the swipe motion on the left side where the phone icon will be. And as long as your iPhone does automatically connect to the speakers anyway (which it will do if you have previously paired it with your bluetooth hands-free system in your car), then it will work instantly with no other hassle.
I wish there were an easier way, but at least it's down to one gesture (swipe up on iPhone). There really should be a button on the watch to let you transfer it (since it has that button in all other use-cases, but not with a call in progress). It's dumb that I have to reach into my pocket and pull out my phone to transfer it to the hands-free system, but that's how it is. :-(
Hope this is helpful.

IPhone vs. car audio

I know that one of you out there has to know which component to buy (preferably not from Apple) to plug iPhone into the car stereo.

Welcome to the forums!
AFAIK there are no "Apple certified" iPhone components, but some folks here have had good luck with iPod ones and I'm sure they'll chime in. The best link I have right now is this:

IPhone no longer works with car audio

I'm running a 16 GB 3G-S and it worked wonderfully for my internet music such as Pandora or listening to iHeart radio.
The unit would sync up easily to both my new car audio systems and everything detected and played beautifully! However, once I upgraded to 4.2.1 the iPhone is no longer detected in "iPod Mode" or either receiver. I either get error codes from the receiver or errors from the iPhone that this is not supported (when it was in 4.1).
I really loved those features for my frequent long drives. I really hope there is a fix for this problem. I did check with both receiver manufacturers and they maintain their units should work.
Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated!

That is wild! My receiver had problems under 4.1, and I upgraded to 4.2 last night hoping to rectify things. It worked for me, flies through the menus and plays back beautifully again.
I have a 3GS and a Pioneer deck in the truck.

IPhone 5S with ios8 fail to connect my Bluetooth car audio system

Dear apple users and developers,
I have read many threads about this issue mostly for iPhone 5 (ok i have the 5S) perhaps this makes a difference. With the ios7 i had no issue and always connected to my MHV-8300BT Pioneer device in my car. After update, when i get connected, i says "Calling My number" and when i push the button on my device to answer it drops the line, it keeps the connection but i do not hear, speak. Then i have to change the source voice system and i set the speaker or the iPhone.
On my fathers Bluetooth, a Motorola, it works, at the beginning i made a reset only for the Network settings,
Do not know what else to do
Thanks for reading my post
Nikos

Iphone 6 iOS 8.1 no longer playing properly with car audio system

Hi there,
I have an iphone 6 running ios 8.1 and it is no longer allowing me to play/pause songs through the car's audio system. I have a USB port in the car that allows me to plug my iphone in and control the Music through the car audio system.
I have a 2011 Holden Cruze.
Prior to the iOS upgrade, the function worked fine.
Bluetooth connectivity is still OK and if I control the music via the iPhone it will play.
Is anyone else having this issue and are apple aware of it?
Thanks.

Hi Darren,
I'm experiencing the exact same issue with my Volkswagen Golf 2015. Since the update I'm unable to use the play/pause button. When I press the button while my phone is connected through the MDI cable it does nothing. But if I use Bluetooth I can control it without issue. That said, in my car I don't want to use Bluetooth while I'm playing music because I want to charge my iPhone at the same time so I need to use the cable. I think this is a really issue and Apple should advise.
Update:
I did a full restore without using a backup of my old phone. Oh surprise... It seems to work now. But the worst now, is that I have this album of U2 showing in my playlist. I don't know if it's related, but that album was not showing when I used my back-up the first time. Seriously, I think Apple succeed at messing up enough with iOS 8.1 and this U2 album to break the playlist and the playback functionality with cars and radios.
To resolve the issue I tried:
Restore to iOS 8.1 with back-up - FAILED
Restore to iOS 8.1 without using any back-up - SUCCEED but fail at the same time because I need to re-setup my iPhone manually and try to get rid of this U2 album.

IPhone 5 Bluetooth Audio Problem w/ Car Stereo (Pioneer AVH-P3300BT)

I tried looking around to see if anyone else had this issue, and didn't find an answer.
I have a Pioneer AVH-P3300BT car stereo, and while it doesn't play music via bluetooth, it does have a very nice setup for talking on the phone.
It's always worked fine with my iPhone 4, 4S, and also several Android handsets. It even worked fine on my 4S after upgrading to iOS 6. But now I have an iPhone 5, and the audio quality is just horrendous. I can kind of hear the person on the other end, but according to whoever I'm talking to, my voice sounds garbled and "demonic". The iPhone 5 on iOS 6 is the only device this happens with. Is there a fix for this, or is it at least a known bug? I would hate for my expensive car audio setup to be rendered useless for the purpose I bought it.
The deck also displays other information from the connected phone, such as signal strength and battery level. When the iPhone 5 is connected, it shows a dead battery (even when full) and a completely full signal (which is almost never really true).
I can use the phone with my Plantronics bluetooth headset and there are no sound quality issues there.

Same here. Why doesn't anyone from support offer a Solution or at least reply????
This issue has nothing to do with your brand of audiosystem. I talked to quite a few iPhone 5-ers and they ALL have the same issue.
@Apple solve this!!!! And reply!!

My bluetooth seems to have stopped working in my car. Both phone and car audio says it is connected but nothing comes through car speaker. I no longer have screen on iphone that says to choose audio source. How do I get that screen back?

Thanks, this was the clue I needed to figure it out.
From Settings you can pull up Control Center.
In Control Center you can enable "Access from within Apps" (also "Access from Lockscreen")
Now when I'm playing music, I can swipe up from the bottom and a little control center window slides up. Neat - this is new since my old iPod. On this window, the name of the current Bluetooth connection appears. Tap on that, and a list of connected Bluetooth items appears. I just tap on the one I want to connect to and I am now playing through the speakers I want.

My Iphone 6 (8.1.2) is very slow and sluggish to response whenever it is connected any bluetooth devices ex. my car audio or bluetooth headsets

My Iphone 6 (8.1.2) is very slow and sluggish to response whenever it is connected any bluetooth devices ex. my car audio or bluetooth headsets
The moment I disconnect the bluetooth , the phone turns normal again. This happens when i awaken the phone and try to access the home screen, this takes almost 4 to 5 seconds at times.
Is anyone facing similar issues, Please advice

IPhone 4S with iOS 5.0.1 started to breaking up via bluetooth airplay to car audio clarion cx609e

With new iPhone 4S and iOS 5.0.1 my car audio clarion cx609e started to breaking up airplay streaming? Streaming will continue but with in music there is a little cut-offs. This happens with Spotify app, not tested with iPhone´s own iPod app... With old iOS 4.x there were no problems at all?!?!

My son has a similar problem since updating to the latest software on his iphone 4. He can make calls but the other person can't hear him. Facetime and Skype work fine - so it must be the lower microphone that is the problem. He's had it checked at the Apple store in Chiang Mai but they won't fix it - he has to get it back to the UK for service. It's 2 months over the warranty period but having checked around it seems this problem is widespread and Apple need to sort it fast!
I've updated mine and it's fine - but I'm gonna take out applecare before the warranty runs out as I'm not risking having a £495 phone that I can't use as a phone.
I was thinking of buying one for my wife this Xmas but no way whilst they are having so many problems.
COME ON APPLE - GET THIS FIXED WITH A NEW RELEASE ASAP!

Can not unmute iPhone 6 after connection to car audio

I have a strange issue with iPhone 6, IOS 8.02. After the phone is disconnected from car audio it goes into mute by itself and I can not unmute it. The silent switch has no affect. The volume up button will unmute the phone but only while I am holding the button. The instance I let the volume up button go, the phone mutes itself again. The only way to get out of this is to power down and back up again.
Did anyone see anything like that and have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi borisser,
If you are having issues with unmuting your iPhone after having connected it to your car stereo, and have already tried restarting it with no resolution, I would suggest that you back up and restore the iPhone as a new device. See this article -
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
