Working iPod 5th Gen with Alpine Car Stereo CMA9855

Hi
Just wondering whether anyone has tried using the latest iPod with Alpine Car Stereo CMA 9855 with an iPod interface.
Problem - not all artists show up on the stereo screen + can't get quick search to work. Is it an alpine stereo software problem?
Appreciate any feedback.
Dom

I have a Clarion Pro Audio deck/Clarion IPOD connector. My system worked great up until IPOD SW 1.2.
Before, I could control the IPOD on the face of the IPOD. Now, the IPOD works, but it's in locked mode, so I can't browse artists/albums any more. Baiscally, I have to hit RANDOM TRACK mode, and hope I land on a CD I'm in the mood for.
Very frustrating, although GAPLESS is great. (FINALLY!!!!)

I have a Sherwood home stereo w/2 audio inputs on the front,Is this an excepted way for hooking an ipod touch to?.Useing a stereo cable of course.

My new stereo has all kinds of inputs to include HDMI. I hooked my ipod touch 4 to the CD player audio inputs on the back
and it was OK w/the vloume at 30%.
When I hooked/pluged my ipod into the LINE IN audio inputs in the front of my stereo I had to raise the volume up to 50%.
I tried my CD player the same way(from headphone jack to LINE IN on the stereo) and I also have to raise the volume.
I'm useing a stereo cable. Thanks

Once again I've answered my own question. If I knew how to delete my question I would.

Using my ipod shuffle together with my car stereo

I tried to use a normal cable o listen to my ipod shuffle in the stereo I have in my car and it didn't work. Is there a special cable or it only works with the its own headset?

Hi-
From the Apple Support site http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3472:
When a standard headphone or audio accessory is connected, you can initiate audio playback by simply switching iPod shuffle from the OFF position to the play in order or shuffle position. The iPod shuffle should be in the OFF position for at least three seconds before switching it back on. iPod shuffle will resume playback of the content that was previously being played at a fixed volume level. This volume level cannot be adjusted from the iPod itself. If iPod shuffle is connected to external speakers or a car stereo, volume adjustment may be possible from those devices.
iPod shuffle will pause audio playback when the device is switched off or when the audio accessory is disconnected
Hope this helps

Recording in using the audio in with a mini stereo cable

Does anyone here use the audio port on the MacBook to record? I see there are several ways of using studio mics like Blue Microphone's Icicle XLR converter. What would the quality of recording be if I were to connect my synth using a cable with L&R 1/4' jacks to mini stereo jack and go staight into the audio jack and record?
Would it be better to get a better soundcard?
Thanks

Thanks Lyssa,
Right now, I take a cable that is stereo RCA down to mini stereo and run that between the mixer and the Edirol recorder. The RCA plugs go into the left & right of the mixer and the mini goes into the line in on the Edirol. Work perfect. I also do this with a cassette deck to the Edirol to copy what's on the tape.
I figured it would work for that too.
But, if I need a preamp, maybe I could come out of the headphone jack and just convert it from 1/4" to mini stereo in the MacBook?
Ideas!

Using iPod Hi-Fi with Digital Audio (Coaxial) Cable

I have a Bandridge Digital Optical & Coaxial Audio Switch Box which allows me to connect multiple devices to output sound through my ipod hifi via digital optical or digital coaxial cable(it actually converts from optical to coaxial as well). The problem is all devices connect perfectly through the optical ports on the switch box however my PC only has a digital(S/PDIF) coaxial port so I use a digital coaxial cable for this but no sound is output through my ipod hifi? Can the ipod hifi output sound from a digital coaxial source?

With what you currently have it is impossible to do what you want.
However, take a look at http://rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/mac/ .
I have seen many plaudits for this on the boards, but have no experience with it whatsoever!

IPod Touch gen1 with apple composite av cable sound comes out but no video?

I have a iPod touch gen1 and ipod touch gen2 and with gen1 IPT audio comes out but no video on the tv. Whereas the gen2 works fine. I have brought the Apple Composite AV cable about 3 days ago.
Message was edited by: Italian_Stallion

Your av composite cable isnt compatible with the ipod touch 4G, i assure you that. It will work on older devices like what you have said... But ipod touch 4G is completely a high tech device in present generation. Apple cables/cables are compatible specifically to a device. Try to buy cables conpatible with iphone 4 above and i assure you it will perfectly work with an ipod touch 4G. Iphone 3gs model is inferior to 4th generation models. So maybe the cable cant function properly on higher models because its firmware, specs., etc. is more advanced.

Ipod classic 160gb showing music playing but no sound with headphone headunit aux cable or hardwired car stereo

last week i had my ipod classic 160gb plugged into my ford falcon fg xr6 ipod connectivity hardwire for the car stereo as i have had for over a year now since i only ever take it out to update music and software. i unplugged it and was using an iphone 5 in the meantime for about 2 hours while my ipod classic was updating. when i connected my ipod classic the connection is fine i can browse files and songs like normal but no sound comes out of the speakers. i thought my car was stuffed but i have tried it on alpine pioneer kenwood aftermarket units through an ipod cable which i have done hundreds of times in the truck i drive as well as tryin to connect headphones as well as an aux cable to play through the speakers all to no avail. the ipod works fine i can scroll throught lists the seconds and minutes of the song or video roll on by so it is playing but no sound is being produced.
if anyone could help me with this ASAP it would be greatly appreciated and i would be one grateful man to have my music back. thank you in advance

Hello Brutl6,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPod classic. You have gone through some really good steps to isolate the issue. I recommend continuing with the steps in the following article to further isolate and troubleshoot the issue of no audio when connected to headphone or speakers:

IPOD frozen after use with Jensen car stereo with IPOD control cable

I recently installed a Jensen MSR7007 stereo and connected the IPOD mini with a special Jensen cable that allows the IPOD to be controlled from the radio without having to touch the IPOD. It works beautifully and the IPOD display reads "JENSEN RADIO" while it is playing. However when I disconnected the IPOD it was frozen (locked up) with the Jensen Radio display still on it. It was inoperable when I disconnected it and I couldn't even turn it off.
Please Help.

I am having a similar problem - I just purchased a pioneer DEH-P690UB indash car stereo, but I can not get the radio to recognize my iPod mini (N/A USB). The installar has a newer iPod, which worked when he tested the system, so I have been looking for the new firmware to see if that will help.
Can anyone direct me to the firm ware downloads?

Why is my 4th generation ipod touch not charge? I plug it into the computer and the wall and with 2 different usb cables and its not charging. When its plugged in it shows the icon for charging but the battery never increases and it dies once i disconnect

I have a 4th generation Ipod Touch. It has been working for months when yesterday the battery started acting werid. I was driving and it was connected with the usb charger cable to my car stereo when all the sudden my music stopped and the stereo could not recognize my ipod at all. When I got back home, I tried to charge it so it wouldnt die but even while on the charger in the wall the battery continued to die. I charged it over night (the first time I have ever charged it over night) desperately to have battery for a 4 o clock plane flight so I would have entertianment. The ipod died over night while on the charger. When I unplugged it from the usb charging cable I noticed that the icon telling me the ipod needed to be charged came up. So I plugged it back in. The charging thunder bolt symbol popped up next to the very small red strip on the left side of the battery indicating that the ipod had no charge to turn its self on. I tried plugging it in on the computer, the wall ac charger and a stereo system made just for the ipod that also pluggs into the wall. I have used 2 different cables, the result being the same that the ipod held no charge, and it wouldnt charge at all while on the charger, and it would imediately die once i take it off the charger.
I have not idea what has happened ....
Please help
THanks!

- While charging try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if still problem restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
- However, I really think that the iPod has a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. If defective Apple should give you a refurbished iPod.

5.0 30GB video wont link with car stereo cable

i have a 5.0 30gb video. it will not link with my car stereo ipod cable on my sony in dash or my alpine in dash. we have two new ipods in the family, 5.5 30gb and 80gb. these two will link with either car stereo. what do i do?
5.0 30GB IPOD VIDEO Windows XP Pro

It really depends if that is a recent statement from the manufacturer.
It could well have been true when the HiFi was released.
You need to contact them and ask if the iPod touch 2G is supported, have a look on thier website they may have more up to date information.

MuVo N200 Line-In Cable with RCA plu

Does anyone know where to get a line-in cable for
the N200 that can plug directly into the dual
RCA-type stereo jacks that are typically found on
the back of a stereo? Or if no such cable exists,
where to get a cable that would have RCA plugs on
one end, and a standard mini 3.5mm jack on the other
end? Then you could plug the cable that came with
the N200 into that.
Regards,
-TW

argh! ok, i can't find this cable anywhere, even RADIO SHACK doesn't have it so hey CREATIVE PEOPLE....where can i get one, or a replacement or whatever. help!

Can i see my photos on the TV with the A/V cable and Ipod Nano?

I dont see any options in the Photos nano menu, cant i see them at the tv with the A/V CaBLE?
iPOD NANO 2GB BLACK Windows XP

No, because the nano does not have a TV output.

Why is my ipod in not working with my car stereo?

i have the stereo hooked up and everything but my ipod doesnt work with the stereo, but my ipod nano works fine with it. i dont understand what its wrong.

Like I said, the Classic doesn't seem to work with many car head units and other 3rd party accessories (something to do with the way Apple have changed the way an iPod recognizes and interacts with these accessories).
Have a look at some of the other threads here that also discuss this.
You would be better off contacting the maker of the car stereos.

40GB iPod Photo came with FW cable, doesn't work with FW cable

I have a 40GB iPod photo that I love. I bought another (used) one for my wife, being careful to get the identical model so we could share things such as docks, cables, etc.
Her iPod works fine with the USB cable, but will only charge with the FW cable -- no computer can see her iPod through FW. I've reset the iPod, updated it with the iPod updater, but nothing. When I connect her iPod to any of my Macs (her 12" iBook, my 12" PowerBook, my G5 iMac) with FW, the iPod appears to be charging, but is not detected by the computer, nor are any of the iPod controls usable. It doesn't go to the "do not disconnect" screen, but simply freezes where it is until the FW cable is disconnected.
Specifics: both iPod Photos are the 40GB model M9585LL, version 1.2.1. The 2nd one CAME WITH a FW cable, which is why I'm puzzled that it won't work with it. Help?

Here is some info for the pinout for the iPod.
http://www.anythingbutipod.com/archives/2006/04/zen-vision-m-video-cable-other-4 pole-35mm-pinouts.php
You need to find the pinout of the camera cable you have.
Probably be easier to get get an AV cable with a 3.5mm plug to (whatever fits into your TV) cable.
Usually, you simply have to swap the Red and the Yellow for it to work properly.
