Why not use a car charger to charge the phone and run a 3.5mm cord from the speaker jack on the phone to the Aux jack in the car?

I don't see why not, in fact doing it that way will give you better sound quality that using FM transmitters. I use a tape adapter.

Connect Iphone to car radio system

I try to find a way to connect my Iphone to my car radio. I wan to listen my mp3 and use my phone with the car radio system.
annuaire et actualité

There are many ways to do this (I use the MonsterCable ipod adapter in rental cars, and the Pioneer Ipod Interface for my P7500DVDII) both with decent results. (great results if you turn on airplane mode). All GSM phones can effect stereo equipment to some degree, and the iphone is no exception. Alot of the 3rd party kits do not use shielded connections which just makes the problem that much more obvious. I found if I adjust the location of my phone in relation to the transmitter and the radio the Monster fm modulator gives satisfactory results without disabling my ability to recieve phone calls. The pioneer is the best, however I can't place the phone in the holder which was installed with the kit since it is in the DIN above the stereo (VW Jetta) and the phone constantly interferes with the amplification circuits. Moving the phone 3-4 inches fixes it.

How to play Mozaic over car radio speaker system without static?

Playing Zen Mozaic over Car?s Radio Speaker system without static?
I just purchased a Zen Mozaic and want to use it primarily for playing books downloaded from the local library over our car?s radio speaker system without static.
I purchased a cheap audio cable to connect the zen to the AUX interface in the car but I understand that trying to play it over the car runs into the problem of bad static.
Is there some device that will allow me to play the Mozaic over the car radio system without static?
Thanks very much.

D? Are you simply plugging a jack from the headphone output on the Zen into a headphone-like input on your stereo? That sould work fine, with possibly only slight "whine". If you are wiring into the back of your stereo, it should work just as well unless you have poorly shielded cables or your car has crummy sparkplugs. Do a Google search on this---what you are doing in case 2 is common on motorcycles and they will tell you how to use a resistor circuit to cut down on ignition interference.
You can also either use a cassette adapter (if your stereo has a cassette player) or an FM transmitter (many varieties of these). The FM transmitter works well, but you'll pick up static and interference if you dri've into an area where an actual FM station is using that frequency. You just have to "change channels" on your radio and transmitter in this case---simple. The sound is pretty good (not as good as direct cable or cassette adapter) and is more than adequate for books.

Why will siri maps not come over car radio?

I cannot get siri to talk over my car radio for the maps feature. The only way I can hear her is if I have the auxiliary (mp3 or iPod) selected. Is there a setting on the phone or maybe on my car that I don't know about. I have a 2012 Hyundai Tucson.

Changing Video out on iPhone 4 car radio

I have a pioneer avic-d3 and an iPhone 4. The radio will play video from the iPhone but I can't find the setting to allow the iPod to send its video to the radio. Any ideas?

There is no setting. On my Pioneer deck, when I connect my iPhone, I can select videos when my deck is set to iPod and the list of videos on my phone is dislayed on the screen of the deck. I select one, it plays on the decks screen like yours.
Again, there are no settings on the phones ipod to control this. I connect my phone using the standard iPod connector included with the deck.

Iphone + VW car radio - no sound

I have a brand new VW Golf car and when I hook up my iphone 3GS it can see my music but no sound is coming out, although it looks like it is playing.
Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, I'm not sure if this will work, but you can try it (I have an Acura, and this sometimes happens to me).
If you have your phone paired with the car via bluetooth, sometimes the phone will try to use bluetooth audio instead of the dock connector. When your phone is plugged in, launch the iPod app on the phone. At the bottom of the screen, you'll see the icon for airplay. Hit it, and make sure your audio source is the dock connector and not bluetooth.
This is the only thing I can think of, because I have had it happen to me. By the way, how you like the golf? I'm considering a GTI since my lease is up in May.

Unable to play music over car radio

I have just gotten my new sIII, but I am not able to get the radio in my Kia to play the music off of the SD card. it says that it is unreadable. What can I do to get it to be able to read the music I want to play?

Can you play the music on the phone? Either with earphones or with the speakers....
If the music won't play on the phone, it can't possibly play through the car stereo either.
If the music player works fine on the phone, then it's the car that's the problem.
Use a line in jack to an Auxilary port in the car and play that way. Your car stereo must be set to AUX of course.

I play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth on the car radio. The phone also connects over the radio. Can I turn off Bluetooth for phone and leave it on for music?

I play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth on the car radio. The phone also connects over the radio. Can I turn off Bluetooth for phone and leave it on for music?

I haven't tried it yet, but I believe this would disconnect Bluetooth for both the phone and music. I have a 2013 Hyundai Sonata if this will help.

ITunes automatically starts playing when iPhone 5 (w iOS 7.0.2) is connected to car radio via an Apple cable

I'm using an iPhone 5 with iOS 7.0.2, regardless it is the most recent update
When I plug my phone into my car radio's USB port (Apple cable, not knock off) iTunes starts to play the very first song in my large iTunes library.
I plug into the USB port to charge it and to connect the phone to radio in order to use hands free audio.
I have tried two or three different cables, it happens with all cables and again all are actual Apple cables.
I do not recall this happening with iOs 6 or at least as much.
With iOs 7 it happens every f***ing time. Extremely annoying and dangerous (I may get so frustrated by this that one day I might just smash the phone or the car radio :-) to the equipment.
I have to unlock my phone, go to iTunes and pause or stop the song/iTunes.
The app does not show as being open, that is why I have to go iTunes itself, the old fashioned way, so to speak.
It sometimes happens when I plug my headset in (also Apple brand, the basic ones that come with the iPad and iPhones) to phone and have tried the two different ones I have. It only seems to happen if my phone is not in use (i.e. I am on a call and switch to the headset it does not happen)
Interestingly this issue with the headphones and iTunes automatically starting happened more with iOS 6 and than with iOS 7. Ironically the opposite is true with the car radio, USB port cable, charging and iPhone — it rarely happened with iOS 6.0 but with iOS 7.0 it always happens.
I cannot seem to find a fix here but I do see I am not the only one with this annoying issue.
Please someone (APPLE!) figure out a fix.
PS I have even considered NOT having any of my music on my phone — none at all — which not only would solve the problem (I would hope!) but be extremely inconvenient and defeating the purpose of only having an iPhone vs an iPhone and an iPod.
PPS - I probably left out something really relevant, like what color is my car , so if I did, please let me know.

I have an iPhone 5 and every time I get into my car, as soon as my iPhone connects to the bluetooth or if I connect the USB cable, the music starts blaring through the car stereo, even if the radio was off. If I am using any of the navigation apps on my phone (google maps, waze, apple maps), and I happen to be lucky enough to have the voice directions working (that's consistently inconsistent), the music will frequently start by itself during navigation, even if I didn't turn the music on. Sometimes the music and navigation voice over will compete with each other at the same time. Sometimes they both go totally silent. Sometimes I'll hear only music. Sometimes only the voice directions. And if make or receive a phone call while the navigation is working, as soon as the phone call ends, the music will always take over again, even if I didn't have the music on prior to. I've checked and re-checked every setting on my phone, in my apps, in my car, and followed all of the suggestions I've found online (note to Apple - there are tons of posts on this topic), and nothing works.
It seems like there should be an easy software fix for this, or at the very least, options to:
prevent the music from starting automatically every time you connect with a cable or bluetooth (insanely annoying)
allow voice directions to temporarily mute music, should one choose to be listenting to music and navigating at the same time
just listen to voice direction - no music!
Better yet, how about just provide options to let the end-user decide when to listen to music.
For a product that is supposed to be "intuitively easly" and/or "just works", this level of dysfunction shouldn't be acceptable. Come on Apple - what are you doing to fix this???

My iPhone 4 can not be read by my JVC car radio after upgrading to 5.0

My iPhone 4 has always worked with my jvc radio until I went to 5.0 radio just says cannot read and phone says cannot playI whish Apple would fix this problem.

I figured out my problem. When I upgraded to 5.0 my ITunes did not sync correctly so when I tried using it with my Jvc car radio it locked it. So I restored my iPhone and tried it again with no luck so I reset my radio and what do you know it works perfectly now. So if anybody else has had a similar problem try it before replacing your head unit.

I have iphone 6 with ios 8.1.1. The bluetooth pairs with my sony car radio and everything works fine. However, the iphone won't stop searching for other devices.

I have an iPhone 6 with ios 8.1.1 operating system. The Bluetooth pairs with my Sony car radio and works fine. However, the iPhone will not stop searching for other devices. This does not seem to affect anything, but I can't help but think it is using battery power.

One possibility:
How do you know it is searching for other devices? Because you opened Settings > Bluetooth?

            Hi imissmn,
The details from Ann154 are pretty good ways to begin. You can check if the iPhone 5 is compatible by checking the car manufacture's website. You can also provide us with the car make, model and year along with the bluetooth technology (is the manufacture makes more than one). We want to confirm your device details so please let us know as quick as can be.
Thank you,

You need an FM transmitter.

Using iPhone 4 with my car radio

I have a car radio which can connect to the standard iPhone (or iPod or iPad) connector/charger port and the music from the device can then be played through the car speakers. The tracks and playlists are listed on the radio and you control the device through the radio using the radio's "jog" dial. However, when first connecting, I always get the message about this accessory not being suitable to use with the iPhone, but click the "dismiss" button and everything works fine. How can I get rid of this annoying message?

On a side note to my question above, when I have my iPad connected, I should like to be able to control the music through the iPod app on the iPad itself, but there is a constant 'wallpaper' on screen saying "accessory connected" rather than the iPod app. If I quit the app the iPad's desktop is displayed correctly and the music does not stop, but launch the iPod app again and it displays momentarily before resorting to the same "accessory connected" background. Any ideas on how to play the music from my iPad, rather than the radio - because when using my iPhone I can control from either device?

IPhone & JVC DAB Car Radio - advice

Hi Guys & Gals,
Can I seek your advice please?
I have a JVC DAB car radio which has a USB connection for my iPod. Works fine when I connect my iPod, but I now have an iPhone 3GS.
When I connect this to the head unit via the USB the iPhone doesn't recognize the head unit or vica-a-versa?
Can I get/buy and App for my iPhone which will mimic the iPod and thus enable my JVC head unit to play my IPhone?
Surely I'm not alone requiring this feature for my wonderful iPhone?
Can anyone help or advise?
Mark
Minchinhampton

My 3gs USED to work with my JVC head unit until I upgraded to 3.0.1. Now it will not even detect my phone, my phone makes the USB hookup sound and charges, but nothing else works. I've tried downgrading to 3.0 and that does not work. I think apple decided to "fix" something that was not broke. way to go apple.
