Mini Cooper, iPhone 5 iOS 7 and adapter

We have a problem with the iPhone 5 adapter in our Mini Cooper.  Audio and Mini Connected is not working.
At BMW and Mini they told me I need to wait for a new model of this adapter.
When can I buy this compatible adapter?

Hiya Daniel,
Presume you have media on your countryman as you have the MINI connected app going ?
Firstly, as daft as it may sound but is both the USB and jack plug fully pushed in to the connectors in the MINI, even if the jack plug is not fully in will prevent the audio coming through.
Are you using a non media cable in a media car?
My cable with lightning connector arrived from BMW. Final cost was £51 with a bit of discount.
The connector works excellently, not convinced it improved the sound quality much, but I think it is better than using the lightning adaptor.

  • Mini Cooper/iPhone-iPod issue

    I bought a 2010 Mini Cooper and the accessories cable that came with the car works to charge the iPhone but we keep getting a message that my phone's iPod is not compatible...any ideas???

    I have a Mini Clubman and usually get that message when I first plug in the phone.
    I think this happens with most non Apple plug in's but they still work, it's just annoying.

  • Just updated iPhone iOS and it is asking for the wrong AppleID. How do I change it if I can't get into the iPhone?

    I just updated the iPhone iOS. I get the Hello Screen. It asks me to choose a WiFi. Then it takes me to a login but it has the WRONG AppleID listed. I changed the AppleID months ago. I do not have the password for the old ID, and I have no access to that email account to reset it. What the heck do I do? I can't get past this step.

    UPDATE: Problem solved! Just got off the phone with Apple support. It only took all of about 10 minutes tops to fix, which was great. I think it was relatively painless because I never changed my password. Even when I changed email addresses/Apple IDs, my password never changed. So if there was an old password that you no longer remembered associated with the old Apple ID, I imagine that could be trickier.
    These were the steps:
    Settings --> Messages --> Send & Recieve --> tap old Apple ID --> Sign Out
    Settings --> Facetime --> Send & Recieve --> tap old Apple ID --> Sign Out
    Settings --> Messages --> Send & Recieve --> log-in with current Apple ID
    Settings --> Facetime --> Send & Recieve --> log-in with current Apple ID
    Settings --> iTunes & App Store --> he had me verify that it was showing my current Apple ID, which it was, so we didn't need to mess with anything there
    Settings --> iCloud --> it was still showing the old Apple ID and wouldn't let me change it (it was grayed out), so he had me scroll down and Delete Account. This is where I think I needed to enter my password, but fortunately it was the same as always, so no problem there.
    -- Select "Keep data on my iPhone" or something like that
    Then:
    Settings --> iCloud --> log-in with your current Apple ID/iCloud account.
    -- Select "Merge" so it syncs everything up.
    All done!
    Good luck to anyone else who has this very annoying little issue! Hope it's as relatively painless to fix as it was for me.

  • Sync-problem with 'my photo stream' between iPhone (IOS) and PC (Win7)

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with the automatic sync of "my photo stream".
    My photo steam on my IOS device contains 52 photos.
    On my Windows computer there are only 43 photos available.
    There is no logic behind the missing photos.
    I took 2 more photos to test the stream. After I took the photos I've 54 photos in my album. 2 min later the upload seems to be completed because on my IOS device I've 54 photos.
    I've waited for over 2 hours now and on my Windows computer there are still 43 photos. So the new ones are missing beside some missing photos in between!
    What I've already done:
    # re-install iCould on Windows computer
    # reset iPhone to factory defaults
    # several shutdown and reboots of all devices
    maybe someone can help me with that problem!
    thanks in advance!
    cheers
    max

    I tried the sign-out/reboot/sign-in and now it's stranger than before.
    On my iPhone I have 79 pictures in 'my photo stream'.
    On my PC I have 24 randomly picked photos in 'my photo stream'.

  • Is it normal that the iPad mini Retina iPhone 5S and different color display?

  • I recently purchased Apple TV and it worked right away with my three ipd minis my iPhone 5 and ipad . The next day I cannot get the airplay icon to show up on any thing? Any ideas

    I recently purchased Apple TV and the first day it worked great. The second day I can no longer get the airplay symbol on any of my devices?

    Airplay doesn't show up in control center on any of your devices?
    Have you tried restarting the devices by holding down the home and power button for about ten seconds. I would also try restarting your router/modem.

  • Dear team, please advise when are we going to receive the latest IOS 7.1 for iphone 5 and ipad mini,

    dear team,
    please advise when are we going to receive the latest IOS 7.1 for iphone 5 and ipad mini,

  • HT4623 iOS Update on IPhone 4s and IPad Mini

    I have a IPad mini and a IPhone 4s and it says the iOS 7 Update isn't there. I want it to update. At first it did say it on my Ipad mini but I pressed update later instead of update now. Help?

    It might be that the servers are overloaded with everyone trying to upload the update today.  Wait a little bit and try again later.  You might also try restarting your device if you don't see the option. 

  • How can you sync safari bookmarks between iphone 5 and ipad mini retina? IOS 7.1.2

    The syncing works between my iMac and iPhone on one hand and between iMac and iPad on the other. I'm using IOS 7.1.2. I made sure iCloud is on on IOS devices, same iCloud account, made sure there is no problem with the WiFi...I appreciate any help I can get. thanx

    Finally I got a solution from an Apple guy today. First we did the following steps on an iPad and then on iPhone.
    Basically, it comes down to this:
    general/restore/ erase all content and settings
    set up the iPhone/iPad as a new device
    type your iCloud account info
    once everything is up and running, wait for a while and first check on contacts, calendars, notes if it's syncing with the iCloud, then open safari and look for the other device. In my case it worked and iPad finally detected iPhone and I could see the safari tabs from the iPhone on the iPad.
    But then, Iphone still couldn't detect the iPad, so the guy said the original problem was probably in iPhone. And so we did the whole thing again on iPhone and then I finally had my tabs from all devices visible on every device.
    Thanks for your help anyway.

  • HELP: I sync my iphone ios 4 to another iphone ios5, sync was completed but after a few mins, iphone will auto restart and freezes at the home screen which I can't unlock. I have to hold the "home"   "off" button to restart the phone.

    Dear all, please hel!!
    I sync my iphone ios 4 to another iphone ios5, sync was completed but after a few secs, the iphone with the IOS 5 firmware will auto restart and freezes at the home screen which I can't unlock. It will then freeze for a few secs before repeating the restart phase again and again and again.
    To solve this issue, I have to hold the "home"  + "off" button to restart the phone. Afterwhich, it will restart the phone. However, although my stuff are still on the phone, all my sms are gone.
    Can someone please assist urgently.
    My data was transferred from another iphone 3GS which is running an IOS 4.0.1 to another 3GS running ios 5.0.1
    Is there a serious compatibility issue with both firmware?
    Please help.
    Thanks!

    Can't I just set up Exchange as one of my calendars in ical?
    Only if you're running Snow Leopard and your employer will allow access (different than iPhone/mobile device access, so most likely not), but not needed - keep reading.
    Is it really true that I have to choose between syncing Exchange with work server OR syncing iCal with personal Macbook?
    No. It was true, but with the v3.0 software that changed - you can now sync your Exchange contacts and calendar over the air, and your Address Book and iCal via iTunes over the docking cable.
    What is the best work around for this?
    None needed. When you set up the exchange account, and choose to turn on syncing of contacts and calendars, you will be prompted to remove all other data, or keep it on the iPhone. Choose the keep option. Note that in that case, your personal data will not be uploaded to the Exchange server - the iPhone keeps them separate (although you can choose to view them in a merged fashion).
    I have this set up on my phone (Exchange calendar along side personal and other calendars from iCal). Same for contacts. Works great.

  • IPhone 4S stopped pairing with my 2007 Mini Cooper 4S

    I'm an IT guy of 15 years. I have been on several deployment teams for PDA, then Smart Phones. Recently my iPhone 4S stopped pairing with my 2007 Mini Cooper 4S. I went through the gauntlet trying to get this issue solved including but not limited to the following.
    Trying to pair my wife's brand new iPhone 4S to the same Mini Cooper! (DID NOT WORK EITHER!)
    Resetting network settings. (Did not work)
    Wiping my iphone 4 and restoring it. (Did not work)
    Called Apple support and they offered me a new phone. (A new phone is not going to fix the problem if my wife's brand new iPhone 4S will not pair either)
    Successfully paired another phone (Droid) to my car.
    My 15 inch MacBook Pro can see my iPhone 4S but my iPhone cannot see my Macbook Pro either!
    There is a huge amount of complaints on the internet regarding the latest bluetooth update with IOS 5.1.1, people are having the same issue with bluetooth dropping pairing with their automobiles!
    Apple let it slip on the phone that they are aware of this issue.
    My phone worked fine until IOS update 5.1.1 I may try to restore back to an earlier IOS.
    My phone worked for a few months with bluetooth and was a little flaky since getting the 4S it worked much much better with the iPhone 4. When I got the iPhone 4S that's when spotty issues with the bluetooth became noticible including the system dropping on calls and reverting back to the handset vs the speaker system. I had to apologize to several customers while on the phone. I thought I was doing something wrong, but realize now that this phone has issues with the bluetooth.
    In closing I would like to simply say that if this iPhone 4S does have hardware problems then Apple is going to have a lot of ticked off people because it's a hardware problem with the design in general and they will have an iPhone recall or suit on their hands. Because I can assure you this is a bluetooth problem with every iPhone 4S, it's not a coincidence that my wife's iPhone 4S with the same 5.1.1 IOS will not pair with my car either. So for Apples sake I hope this iPhone bluetooth issue can be fixed with an update! Best of luck Apple. I'm not going to beat up on you guys because I am diehard Apple and I love your products, but please fix this issue. We have phone ordinance laws in various burbs in Cleveland and they will fine you for talking on your handset.

    Well the good news is all that fell on deaf ears we are all users here not Apple
    The clue is in the User Communities title
    It is not the responsibility of Apple to ensure EVERY item in the world is compatible
    which is why goes to great lengths to share iOS changes and hardware with any "Developer"
    that is interested Including BMW/Mini and every other Auto manufacturer
    Have you called in at your Mini Dealer to check if they have a Bluetooth update
    If they haven't ask why not ,technology is moving forward daily
    and clearly if they do not keep up you will have problems
    Expect a charge it is Apple that gives free updates to their customers

    Is it OK to use with an iPhone 5s and ipad mini?
    My worry is it'll damage the battery. It charges sooooo much quicker than the standard charger.

    Who knows ,if you want to charge faster get the Apple 12w charger that is compatible with all iOS devices
    Then you don't have to ask is it safe ,it's made by Apple for their devices

    . How do I fix this? It's just mine. My friends and her moms Iphones appear in both spots so it's not the cord. Help! I've tried uninstalling and redownloading Itunes. That didn't work. I've reset my iphone numerous times. Turned it off and back on. Restarted my computer. Deleted everything off of it and restored it from backup. It works on my friends computer perfectly fine but it won't work on mine. I've tried everythign that the Apple troubleshooter said to do and none of it worked. I need to get it figured out soon because I only have tonight.
