My iphone 4s is being used on car stereo via usb port.

my iphone 4s is being used on car stereo via usb port on the old ios system it would play music and when you turned the the stereo off would play where you stopped it i have the settings in itunes on shuffle all and repeat all , since the update to iOs7 all it does now is return you to the first song in the A play list and not where you left it. i have even seen it happen was looking at screen and had song in middle of song and turn stereo on and hey presto back to the being of the A's.
it was fine until update has something changed in working of itunes on phone

Manual push and fetch will not use internet. The problem may lie with the new maps integration - it is constantly getting information wherever you are.

Iphone 4s no longer recognised by my car stereo (via usb) or by my apple friendly music dock. Any ideas?

My Iphone 4s no longer recognised by my Sony car stereo (via usb) or by my apple friendly music dock. Any ideas?
Had started acting up just prior to IOS 8.0 then seemed ok a few days into using IOS 8.0 but now back to square one.
Have updated to IOS8.0.2 but still nothing.

maybe try cleaning out the port at the bottom of your iphone by blowing it out with compressed air or maybe by using a soft brush. or maybe gently with a toothpick. but nothing metal. perhaps there's dirt or dust in there that's preventing a connection. similarly make sure the connectors on your docks and cables are clean.

HT1369 I have an Alpine car stereo with USB port for my iPod, most recently an error message apperared. Now I am having a problem connecting to iTunes via my computer, with windows 7. The screen on my iPod still shows the Alpine logo and "Ok to Disconne

Please help. My iPod froze up after playing in Alpine car stereo. The screen shows the "Alpine" logo and the message "ok to disconnect" I have tried to connect to my PC with little success. Windows 7 does not recognize the iPod with the error message "device error". I have run the iTunes Diagnostics but it still does not recognize device as "connected"

See my reply to "Transferring Tunes" . Suggestion: From what you said, it sounds like you could easily connect this iPod to a Windows computer. Go back to the computer where you have the 3600 songs. Get the files out of the folder where they reside and put them on the iPod as data (your iPod has to be set up for disc use. So you will then have your music on there as the iTunes music AND the data files. Take that iPod to your Mac. Drag those files from the Finder, where you will see them on your iPod, which will mount like an external disc. (It was set up for disc use). Drag those files to your iTunes Library in the Source List (on the left) in iTunes. You might have to drag them into some interim folder on your harddrive first, like the Music folder within your User.

Enabling Disk Use For Car Stereo

Hi there,
I'm wanting to connect my iPod via my Car Stereo's USB port, and control the ipod still so I can choose which songs to play.
I was told if I enabled disk use AND manually manage songs, it would allow me to do this, but so far, after a few seconds of reading the ipod, songs are played in a random order through my car stereo and I have no control from the iPod.
Please explain what I need to do.

I don't think so. Disk use allows you to use the iPod as a storage device - as far as I know you cannot play music while it's in Disk mode, nor can you take audio from the USB port on the iPod. (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong!). Manually managing songs is the method for adding or removing content from the iPod, not a means of controlling it from a head unit.
Whether you can connect your iPod to your car and how it will work depends upon the car, model and year of manufacture. I used a Dension adaptor that plugs from the Dock connector on the iPod to the back of the stereo in my Mazda 3. I can choose any album, genre or playlist but usually I set the ipod to "shuffle all songs" mode and then plug it into the adaptor. Once connected, I can control track skip and track back from the steering column but I cannot see track information on the car's display. The iPod turns off and back on with the car ignition.
However, my sister-in-law has a Mazda MX-5, but her (Bose) stereo will only play from the first five playlists and that's it! Quite who thought that was a good idea, I cannot imagine! I believe this issue has been corrected on newer models.
So you see, two models from the same company give different results. Oh, and by the way, when I had the adaptor fitted, my supplier tried to sell me an FM transmitter type adaptor and I recall having a very heated discussion with them about this as they had already fitted the wired adaptor I wanted to a friend's Mazda 3.
My advice is that you see a car audio specialist who can then advise you (properly, I hope) on what options are available to you and your car. Look up Dension though, but treat with caution their claim about using USB. I've noticed that you and Kenichi have exchanged a few more comments while I'm writing this, so I now know you have a Sony head unit. It may not be able to display the iPod screens, but I'm sure Sony make iPod adaptors for their head units..
I still think you need to consult a car audio specialist, who knows what they are talking about. I think even your local Halfords may be able to help. It can't help to try them.

Xperia Z3 compact won't connect to Sony car stereo with usb

Hi, To my dissapointment my Z3 won't connect to my Sony car stereo via USB at all, it seems it is uncompatable whereas my iPod does no problem.. Any help with this?

Most cars have an AUX connection which connects to the headphone jack and to AUX is also a headphone jack so a double ended 3.5mm audio jack which is for phones where as the USB connection is designed for dedicated mp3 style devices like your ipod

Can I use my car stereo connected to my iPhone when I have it an Apple watch connected?

Can I use my car stereo connected to my iPhone when I have it an Apple watch connected?
In short, I want my phone to connect to my car audio when I'm driving rather than my Apple watch.

Assuming that the Apple Watch and the car system use different BT profiles, it shouldn't be a problem to have the phone connected to both.

Using With car stereo after 3.0 update

Hi,
i have my iPhone connected to my Pioneer car stereo through USB, i can view the iPod song list playlists etc on the phone aswell as using the stereo. The song/artist/album titles used to have about a second delay before they displayed the on the car stereo screen but since the 3.0 update this has been taking up to 5 seconds which is really really annoying.
Anyone any ideas why?
Neil

Add me to the list. Brand blankety-new ipod touch that after 4.0.2 wouldn't work with the Subaru-factory-installed ipod connector in my '08 STI. The shut-it-off-and-restart-in-the-car method at least made it able to play music again but still no recharging.
To add insult to injury I did the have-an-Apple-GENIUS call me thing. The first thing was that they called me....for about 1/4 of a second. The phone blipped for less than a ring and then I got an email saying, "Oh, we TRIED to reach you and you weren't there. Why don't you call us?". So I called and was immediately put on hold. When one of the geniuses finally picked up, I described the issue with great patience and his insightful answer was, "let me put you on hold while I talk to my supervisor." So I sat on hold for five minutes until...they just hung up...no answer, no, "gee we think you're SOL"....just "click". Thanks a boatload Mr. Jobs.

i have an iphone 3 , it will only charge from the wall charger. will not charge in the car nor via usb and itunes or pc wont detect it ???

maybe there is some sort of fuse in the cabeling or the iphone its self. Does it have a charge bar on the lock screen when it is being charged. How old is the iphone that may be the problem

My iPhone 5 suddenly stopped getting charged via USB port.

Does anyone know how to reset this so I can start charging via USB port again?

Been trying to use an external memory card reader with my macbook air… connecting via usb port, air does not recognize device nor the microSD card from my gopro … help

Some external ones do not work with the Mac's although most do. There are some driver compadibility issues with Mavericks, so I would wait for an update.

All my internet on my iPhone 4S is being used.

I have never had a problem with my internet, i get 500MB a month and i never go over, however since the iOS6 update all my internet is being used and i am left with none 2 weeks into my contact. i connect to wifi when i can which is the majority of the time, i close all my apps turn mobile data off and it is still always gone!? if anyone has any ideas why it keeps going or how i can stop it it will be a great help.
