Issues with USB connection to car stereo

I just got an iPhone a few weeks ago, and generally it's great, but I have frequent issues when connecting it to my new Pioneer DEH-P3100UB car stereo. I think it may be kind of new in that it doesn't have a "special cable" for connecting to the iPhone, it just uses the typical USB sync cable.
When I see the problem, the stereo reports error 19, which the manual calls a communication failure, and suggests turning the car off and back on, unplugging and replugging the USB device, or switching to a different audio source and then back to USB.
Generally, none of these suggestions work, but power cycling my iPhone always does. This doesn't seem like it should be necessary. Has anyone else had problems like this? Is this a problem with the iPhone software that might be addressed in a future software update?
Thanks!

Hey jrbapple,
Keeping your iPhone updated is a good idea. If you iPhone isn't already updated to iPhone software 2.2.1, try updating it now.

Does the car stereo have the "Works With iPhone" logo?

IPhone Issues with USB Connection and Bluetooth in GM cars

I recently purchased a 2009 Chevy Cobalt SS/TC and it has a USB connection for an iPod. Prior to the 2.1 updated the USB connection worked flawless as well did my handsfree/bluetooth. I had the Apple Genius Bar check my iPhone for any issues due to a corrupt update but everything turned up fine. When i connect to my car I receive an error message (iPod Did Not Authenticate. Check iPod Version). Also my bluetooth will sync but when you answer the phone using hands free you get no audio from the iPhone or speakers in the car. I used a friends iPod and everything worked fine but when I connect with a new iPod it displays the same error. I have contacted GM but they said talk to Apple.
If anyone can help please let me know.
Thanks

Hey J,
Well you got me thinking about your question, and I guess I didn't get it the first time. Again, I own the same car - 09 Chevy Cobalt SS/TC, Black. A lot of fun! I plugged my iPhone into the radio USB connection and get the same error. The GM radio does not support the iPhone. It will not authenticate. The GM radios' firmware is looking for an iPod, not an iPhone. That is expected. As far as the iPhone and it's Bluetooth, again the iPhone's Bluetooth hands free works fine, except I cannot answer the iPhone during an incoming call without first unlocking the iPhone then pressing the mute button on the steering wheel. For what it's worth the iPhone will charge through the USB connection. I'm a little confused on what you are trying to connect. Bottom line, an iPod should always work, an iPhone, not at all. Lastly, I have purchased the GM Personal Audio Link (PAL) and hope to use it with my iPod so I can put the iPod in the glove compartment. Although I have heard a lot of negative comments and issues with it for being slow and sluggish. If so, I'll be sending it back and I'll stay with the USB connection. I'll let you know how that works.

I just switched from iphone 4s to LG G3. I'm having issues with bluetooth in my car, iphone would sync automatically but with G3 I have to manually connect to my car's bluetooth every time I turn it on - it won't sync automatically. Any fixes?

You can turn on BT tethering but it disables Wifi so if I have to do that step every time I get in my car, I just as well manually connect on BT every time.

Connectivity Issues with USB 3 ports on macbook pro

Hi, I have a zoom r24 which is no longer working as an audio interface with my new macbook pro. I have read a lot about issues with USB 2 devices not being compatible with USB 3 ports on the macs. This seems to be midi as well as audio devices. Can anyone recommend or point me to a list of supported devices for both audio and midi which are guaranteed to work with a late 2013 macbook pro retina display. I cant afford a thunderbolt device. Thanks steve

Just a wild thought here, but have you tried inserting a powered USB 2.0 hub between the MacBook and the interface?

Connecting Throughthe car stereo

Hi
I can connect the BB ( curve 8520) through into the car stereo using the car's an auxiliary socket and a double ended stereo jack cable. The sound is clear as a bell
Does anyone know how can I cheaply find a way to use the mike hands free and hence have a really cheap hands free solution? is there some sort of blue tooth mike - only available? Any other ideas?
Thanks for your help

PLEASE, EVERYONE, IF YOU HAVE ENCOUNTERED A PROBLEM WITH YOUR ITOUCH USB MP3 COMPATIBLE CAR STEREO CONTROL FUNCTION, NOT CONNECTING:
Please take the time to send feedback. http://www.apple.com/support/feedback
Apple says that "feedback" is the channel of choice and the more they here from us, the more apt they will recognize and address the issue. feel free to plagiarize any of this document and post to get the word out.
here is what we know...
I have the ipod touch 2nd gen, I updated the OS to 3.1.2. to use the bluetooth capability with headset. It will not work on my 2009 HHR SS usb port, but an ipod classic, and ipod nano do. (also went to chevy dealer and tested on 2010 equinox on show room floor) the power to ipod works but the stereo reports device connection failed.
I have discussed with apple at length (case number: 150238102) and read through the discussion posts regarding this issue. _*I have advised apple that the software 3.1.2 has a bug in the usb communication.*_ If it is USB 2 compatible stereo, then the software should be built to work with the stereo.
Not so much the responsibility of that of the MANY stereo manufacture(s) (who have complied to the USB 2 standards and Ipod control engineering specs.)

After an update, my touch is no longer recognized by iTunes or USB input on car stereo

Formerly I was able to connect my touch to both iTunes (Windows) and through USB on my car stereo (Kenwood). After updating the touch's IOS I cannot connect to either. I am able to connect to the car stereo through blue tooth. I did open an iCloud account for the touch but I doubt that is a factor. I have tried turning the unit completely off and that does not help. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it making certain I used the 64-bit version. It is still not recognized. Any ideas on what to try next?

As it turns out, this was a hardware failure. One of the pins on the bottom connector was bent and caused the problem. What burns me is the problem initially showed itself after updating to ios 5.0.1. I tried a reset over the weekend (including deleletion of my entire music collection) to no avail. I took it in to the local Apple store today and they essentially turned it into a paper weight. After putting it into recovery mode the unit would no longer turn on at all. Unfortunately they wouldn't replace the unit for free because it was 11 days out of warranty. I could have lived with the Touch with all my music on it, but it was worthless after the music was deleted. I feel like they should have replaced it for free. I was planning on upgrading to the next iPhone but this has shaken my confidence (as well as irritating the living **** out of me).
To be fair, Apple did replace the player at a reduced rate. That was better than nothing.

Issues with WiFi connection to Deskjet 3545

Hi,
I have number of issues with WiFi connection to my new Deskjet 3545 AIO:
1. Printer is not able to get IP address automatically from home WiFi router (all other devices get IP with no problem). Using WPS allow printer to register in network but after switching off, WPS setting is not stored, so I have to do it again. This I was able to solve with manual entering of IP address, netwrok mask, DNS and gateway address.
2. Official HP software installed from HP site was able to find printer for 3dattempt, and it started to work. But after a while, "HP utility" program loose connection to printer, so I can not see any parameters, and I get "can not find printerä message when start to to print. After a some time (minutes to hours), whithout any action from my side, connection to printer seems to be restored, so I can see printer parameters in "HP utility" and printing is started.
3. Official HP software installed from HP site on PC (Windows 7) is not able to find printer on WiFi at all, works only with USB.
All this is disaponinting and unexpected, as my office HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color works perfect.

Tips for troubleshooting wireless connection issues
The following tips can help you troubleshoot and avoid wireless connectivity issues. You can try these tips separately or in combination to get a successful wireless signal.
Move the printer and the computer closer to the router, but no closer than 6 ft (1.8 m). Wireless signals can be weaker at greater distances between the printer and the router.
If you are experiencing an intermittent wireless connection, try restarting your router. Consult your router manufacturer, Internet service provider, or network administrator for instructions on how to restart the router.
Remove any metal objects between the printer, the computer, and the router. Objects such as refrigerators, microwaves, or metal bookcases can interfere with wireless transmission.
Move any device that emits radio signals, such as microwaves and cordless telephones, farther away from the printer. Such devices can interfere with wireless signals.
I would also recommend this website, HP Wireless Printing Center - Troubleshooting Issues.
Hope this information is helpful, and have a nice day!

Connection to Car Stereo

I have an ipod connection into my car stereo in my Infiniti. I was hoping to replace my ipod with my Blackberry Storm and be able to play it through my stereo system. Is there a cable that will fit my car connection and the Storm?

First, I don't know what type of connection your car stereo has, but as for me, I am using a simple male 3.5mm to RCA jack cable (See link below) for my car and it works wonderfully.

Issues with my connection when gaming (Insurgency)

Hello,
I just bought the MSI GT72 2QE. I am very pleased with de specs like the Geforce GTX 980m and the i4710hq but there is an issue that is bothering me some days now. When i am playing my beloved game Insurgency, i get ping spikes all the time. So i followed up some instruction on uninstalling the Killer software suite and just installing the drivers when i encountered the next problem. My Killer Wireless-n/a/ac 1525 Wireless Network Adapter couldn't find the drivers in the 'drivers only' package. But i did my best to find other drivers and accomplished after 5 hours full of frustration. So that is done but still doesn't solve my problem.
I don't know what to do anymore and I'm starting to think that maybe my Killer Wireless-n/a/ac 1525 Wireless Network Adapter is the issue. Maybe this is a hardware issue. I contacted the store where i bought it and they will contact me in 48 hours with a possible solution but the guy said that after all my effort it seems like a hardware issue indeed. You guys are my last hope or my laptop will be gone for 3 weeks at the factory.
Video of ping:
nl.tinypic.com/r/ztisd1/8
I hope someone has the solution.
Excuse me for my incorrect English, it's not my native language.
Bye!

Thanks for your reply.
I'm glad (and I'm not glad for the others..) that I'm not the only one. But it's not because there are more devices connected to my router because I am the only one now and I'm still having this problem while my other laptop doesn't have any problems at all. I've tried everything so far now. Resetting my router, restarting my router, reinstalled windows, reinstalled drivers, got rid of the software suite, turned off firewalls, virusscanners etc. Everything.
I thought it was only with Insurgency but it's also bugging me with Battlefield 4.
So i have tried and done everything i could find on every forum on the internet. Still I don't get the download/upload/connection I am used to when using wireless. When i am in my room, which is 10m away from the wireless router, my download speed is max 1200 kb/s where I would easily get 2300 kb/s. Also when playing online games I am having big issues with my latency/ping. It goes from 60 to 200 to 400 and back every 15/20 seconds. I also own a Asus laptop and I don't have any issues at all with the wireless connection. When I am in my room there are no problems at all. I am starting to think that the Killer Wireless adapter is just a f*cked up thing. I bought a laptop (GT72 with 980m) for €2300 but I am having all these issues with the connection. It makes me really frustrated.
Longer vid of ingame netgraph:
nl.tinypic.com/r/97mjae/8
I am hoping that there is something that solves my issues. I'm starting to think that another wireless network adapter from another brand is the only option. Is there an option to change the wireless network adapter on my laptop because I will if I can. This piece of sh*t needs to be replaced.
Bye

Issues with ODI connection to Hyperion Financial Management

Hi,
I am having some issues with ODI connection to Hyperion Financial Management. ODI and Financial management are setup on different machines.
The ‘Cluster(Data Server)’ name in Topology is given as ‘hfm03cl’. On reverse-engineering a model it gives the following error:
org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython:
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<string>", line 38, in ?
com.hyperion.odi.common.ODIHAppException: Error occurred in driver while connecting to Financial Management application [HFM1] on [hfm03cl] using user-name [admin].
at com.hyperion.odi.hfm.ODIHFMAppConnection.<init>(ODIHFMAppConnection.java:58)
When HFM is installed on the same machine, it works fine. How does ODI identify a cluster on a different machine? Do I have to give the machine name along with the cluster name? If so, what is the format?
Thanks,
Su

You will need to have the HFM client installed on any machine that will be running ODI (i.e. Designer or Agent) that will be executing connections to an HFM server.
Once you have the HFM client installed, see if you can actually connect to HFM from that machine using the HFM client.
Couple of other thing, in the Physical Schema, have you set the Application Catalog and Work Catalog to the same HFM application?
Also, when you are reversing, are you using the local agent or one you have installed using agentservice?

Since the Mountain Lion OS update today I've had issues with internet connection and e-mail, has anyone else?

Since the Mountain Lion OS update today I've had issues with internet connection and e-mail, has anyone else?

That's what I would have thought, but even after saving the setting, as soon as I shut down my computer or log out of Mail, it automatically defaults back to 25. It's a bit frustrating.
Now I just need to figure out how to get rid of those horrible pop-up banners but still have my glass sound and number of emails in the red dot when I get an email...
These little tweaks are the only thing I HATE about upgrading my OS.

What is the make & model of your home Wi-Fi router that you are attempting to connect your G5 iMac to? Which exact model of iMac do you have?
What wireless security type is your router using: WEP, WPA, or WPA2? If you temporarily disable wireless security, can the iMac connect to it now?

My itunes account shuts down for no reason. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done. Ideas??

My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason. If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done. Ideas??

Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

Any network adapters with usb connection for mac?

Hi!
Sorry if this is posted in the wrong forum/section. But I need a better network adapter than what comes with my macbook. I need an adapter with usb connection. Found a lot of them, but only for windows Any software that can take a windows driver and "merge" it to the airport software on the mac os x?

Hello johannesharestad. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Other World Computing (OWC) carries a number of OS X-compatible USB wireless adapters that you many want to consider.

My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). How do I fix it?

My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). I have tried unplugging the devices, restarting the computer, selectively unplugging and plugging in the devices, closing and opening the relevant applications (iTunes, iPhoto, etc). I have tried using different USB cables.
It's like all of a sudden the synching service stopped functioning or recognizing these devices for some reason. The other ports work just fine (monitor).
The only USB-connected external device that appears to be unaffected is the USB SuperDrive and it works on all the USB ports into which I plug it.
How do I fix this?

Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens or doesn't happen.
