Is iPhone 5 IOS6 compatible with Lexus RX350?

I recently purchased and received iPhone 5 with IOS 6.  Immediately paired with Lexus RX350, however 3 days later pairing doesn't work anymore.  Called Apple support and learned that problem is at Lexus side.  Visited JM Lexus dealership in Margate, Florida, and learned that problem is with Apple in that Apple hasn't yet provided Lexus with software upgrade/firmware or whatever else is needed.  When I asked for a timetable, Lexus service technicians continue to advise that Apple hasn't returned any phone calls.  At this time, Lexus will be publishing a report stating that iPhone 5 is not compatible with Lexus RX350.  This isn't good.  As much as I like iPhone, I am unwilling to keep the iPhone and buy a new vehicle.  Within about 3 days, my 14 day trial period expires.  As of this date, no one at Apple has provided any information to JM Lexus about fixing the problem.  Unless I hear something within the next 3 days, I'll be forced to replace iPhone 5 with another manufacturer's phone, one that is compatible with Lexus Bluetooth.
Any and all help is very much appreciated.

TallGlenn,
I wanted you to know that I am the Lexus Technology Specialist at a Lexus dealership on the other coast of Florida and the RX350 does in fact work with the iPhone 5.  I actually own an iPhone 5 and have had no issues pairing my phone, transfering contacts, and playing music and even using the Lexus Enform App Suite. It is a shame that they are telling you that the car is fine and the phone is the not working piece.
Hope this helps.

    No, not the 1st gen iPads... The new iOS 6 will run on the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, and iPhone 5; the iPad 2 and third-generation iPad; and the fourth- and fifth-generation iPod touch.

  • IPhone no longer compatible with iPhone dock after 2.1

    I have an iPhone dock attached to my PC for power, with an audio out to a stereo system. Before the update I would pop it in the dock and use the remote to control music. Neat. After the 2.1 update, when I put the iPhone in the dock I get the alert saying that the iPhone is not compatible with the equipment and asking if I want to switch it to airplane mode as a consequence. The remote only controls volume now, not play/pause, skip or menu. So, of what benefit is it for the iPhone now not to be compatible with the iPhone dock? Or am I the only one experiencing this problem?

    Which iPhone dock are you referring to?
    If you mean the iPhone dock that came with the original iPhone then it is not made for the iPhone 3G as the phone does not fit. There is no other iPhone dock other than the dock that Apple are now selling here :-

    This dock does provide the functions to which you refer.

    Hey guys,
    This is the problem. My father just got an iPhone 5. He has a Macbook Pro 2009 with OS X 10.5.8.  The iPhone is not compatible with this version since the iTunes is an older version as well. At our local Apple store in my home country, they told him he needs to upgrade (which I agree of) but that the memory of this computer is not enough to hold the newer OS.
    Please help, he does not really agree with buying a new computer just because of the versions.
    Thank you, I appreciate your help.

    This is what I have. Thank you so much rdr4lfe.

  • When will iPhone 5 be compatible with Brazilian internet 4G

    I live in Brazil and would like to have an iPhone 5. But (what I thought unthinkable) I got to know it's not compatible with Brazilian internet 4G. When will iPhone 5 be compatible with our 4G? Is Apple doing anything about this? I see no point in buying an expensive an state of the art phone and not to be able to use it with 4G. And about other devices like iPad and iPod?
    Thank you.

    We don't know. However, what Apple knows and is willing to share regarding 4G/LTE compatibility is found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937  (updated recently).

  • Is iphone 4s earphone compatible with ipad 3?

    is iphone 4s earphone compatible with ipad 3? Since there is no earphone included in the new ipad 3 gen,I tried to use my iPhone
    4s earphone with it. But it can't be fully inserted in and the sound is not stable. I'm wondering is it actually fit in with the ipad3 or I didn't insert hard enough to the earphone jack. Does anyone else have the same problem?
    And I checked the accessory page  for ipad3 on apple website, the earphone they listed is compatible with almost every apple product include iPhone 4s and ipad3. Is that earphone the same as the one we get in the box of the iPhone 4s? If it is, that means the current earphone I have can be used for my iPad 3. If no, does that mean I have to buy a new one just for my ipad3?

    The earphones are compatible. They both have an industry standard 3.5mm jack. For a new iPad you may have to push hard to completely insert the plug.

  • My iPhone 4S not compatible with 2008 Q7 Audi MMI.  Now only phone numbers come up on screen, no name.  Names appeared on the phone screen but not MMI screen. Cannot dial by contact info while driving anymore.  Never had this problem with previous iPhones

    My iPhone 4S not compatible with 2008 Q7 Audi MMI.  Now only phone numbers come up on screen, no name.  When someone calls, only the number appears on the MMI screen, not their name or whether they called from their office/home etc..   Same with missed calls, dialed numbers etc.. Names appeared on the screen of the phone,  but not on MMI screen. Cannot dial by searching  contact and name info while driving anymore.  Never had this problem with previous iPhones.  Is this an Apple issue or Audi issue?  Anyone with this problem? Help!

    NIGHTMARE Finally Ends, after nearly two weeks.
    After trying for over a week trying to get my replacement iPhone 4S to activate, I ended up driving 110+ miles to an Apple Store to get a second replacement, which had been specially shipped there for me.  Popped in the SIM card, went through the setup and I finally have an iPhone 4S that works, at least for the time being.
    Advice to others who find themselves in this situation:
         1)     If you get these messages (see original post), the phone is bad.  Demand a replacement.
         2)     If the AppleCare tech advises that the Apple Agreement Administration team is investigating, you'll be waiting for a week or more for them to complete it.  Demand a replacement immediately, don't let them put you off indefinitely.
    After the initial phone call documented in my original post, I was in daily contact, phone & e-mail, with the AppleCare tech trying to figure out the problem, and we tried everything, from forced restore's to switching SIM cards, conferencing w/ AT&T, etc.  It seems that this was a case of first impression to Apple, but if it wasn't, then the problem is not well documented or known by those who should know, and for that, the blame should be on Apple, not the AppleCare tech who worked tirelessly trying to figure out a solution--I'd send him a case of beer if I knew where to send it.

  • Trying to figure out what carriers my iPhone 5 is compatible with

    Hi everyone.
    I recently bought a new iPhone 5 (not 5c, not 5s, just 5). No SIM card. It was activated, as in I could access the home screen. I can no longer do this, as I was advised to restore it in order to unlock it, which did not work.
    I went to both MetroPCS and T Mobile and attempted to load their respective SIM cards. In both cases the phone gave the error message "SIM card is not valid" which as I understand means the phone is locked to some other carrier.
    Before I tried to restore the phone, I looked in the settings. I do not recall which row this information was under, but the text was "T Mobile 15.0". Clicking this led me to some 6 or 7 digit number, and clicking again led to an email, something something @ sprintpcs . com. I was under the impression that the phone was locked to T Mobile due to what I just mentioned, but clearly that was not the case since T Mobile SIM did not work.
    I called Apple and the first person I was directed to told me he could not provide me with any information about the status of the lock. I asked to be connected to a supervisor, and he told me that the phone is locked to Sprint.
    I am going to a Sprint store tomorrow to see what they can tell me, but I am confused about something.
    Sprint Nextel US runs CDMA iPhones, which as far as I know, do not use a SIM card. However, my iPhone has a SIM card slot. The back of the box tells me that the phone is compatible with CDMA bands 800/1900/2100MHz *and* GSM/Edge 850/900/1800/1900 *and* LTE 1/3/5/13/25.
    If I understand correctly, this means that if the phone were hypothetically unlocked, then it could be activated with any carrier, CDMA using such as Sprint, or with a SIM card from T Mobile, MetroPCS, AT&T, or some other. That is the the first question; if the phone was unlocked, could it be used with any carrier, GSM or CDMA, SIM card or no, with no problem? I have read in some places that a US CDMA phone only works with GSM *outside* of the US.
    Second question. If Sprint will not unlock the phone, can I get a contract with Virgin Mobile, as a wholly-owned Sprint subsidiary?
    Third question. The phone is still under what seems to be "hardware warranty". IMEI checkers confirm that it is under some kind of warranty until June 24, 2014. Does this warranty only cover hardware problems, so for example, if the lightning port was broken/blocked and I could not charge the phone? Or does it also mean I can return or replace the phone?
    All the info I have on the phone is listed below.
    iPhone 5 White 16GB
    US
    MD657LL/A
    Possibly locked to Sprint Nextel
    Possibly compatible with CDMA *and* GSM
    iOS 7 or above (not sure)
    Was activated at one point, is no longer activated
    TMobile, MetroPCS SIM cards *do not work*
    A1429

    I have the same problem i have iPhone 5s and is lock on Sprint and i update on 7.1.1 and not restore and when the update was complet then i go to settings and write on carrier T-mobile Mk and then i put sim card from tmobile the phone is still locked and then i restore the phone and now i`m stuck on activation screen i need to put sprint card...
    I`m from macedonia and i buy the phone from usa ... Sprint is only in usa i dont have sprint in Macedonia...

  • IPhone no longer compatible with Sony ICF-C1iP Dock/Speakers

    I'm a litte annoyed today. I purchased the Sony ICF-C1iP so I could use it with my first generation iPhone without the static I was getting with the iHome. However, after updating to the newest update yesterday, (August 5), the Sony ICF-C1iP no longer works - well, it still works, but it is now just a clock radio. I can't get music to play through the speakers at all. I called the Apple store and after checking into it, I was told that the problem is with the new update and not the unit, and it is an issue that cannot be helped. Another "however"...the Sony ICF-C1iP is still on display in the Apple store as being compatible with the iPhone. Anyone else encountered this problem and if so, any solutions?

    I just bought the Sony ICF-C1iP for my 1st gen iPhone yesterday to use at work. I iPhone is updated with 2.0 and after having read some of the most recent posts on the discussion boards, I think I'll wait on the most recent update. I can use the iPhone with the clock radio, but it doesn't recharge the battery, as matter of fact it drains the battery. I contacted Sony today and they said it was the ICF-C1iP.

  • ITunes/iPhone not yet compatible with key new feature of iLife '08

    I've upgraded to iLife '08 and am using the new Events feature of iPhoto and am loving it... and in the process I'm realizing that I can nix my own "Albums" that are no longer needed! But then I realize that photos are being deleted from my iPhone because the album no longer exists... duh! Okay, this makes sense, but where is the update to iTunes to support iPhoto Events????????????
    Does anyone know of a work-around other than creating an album for each Event?
    Come on Apple -- this iTunes syncing capability needs to be here very, very soon!!

    Then perhaps you need to upgrade your computer?  If your computer is not compatible with the current version of iTunes:
    PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
    I assume Windows computer.  If your Windows computer isn't compatible with these requirements, I suggest donating to the local old folks home and getting a PC from this century.

    When does Apple expect to have this corrected?

    I have contacted the Lexus dealership and they informed me that since the 7.1.1 upgrade they have encountered many phone calls regarding this issue.
    They tell me that Apple must revise their software in order for this to work properly.
