Pair iPhone with alpine car radio

My iPhone 5 won't pair with the Alpine radio in my car. The iPhone 4 did it with no problems.

I have an Alpine CDE-103BT, had an iphone 4 paired to it. When I got my iPhone 5 I couldn't get it paired. It saw the unit but using 0000 failed each time even though the Alpine manual said to use it and that worked with the iPhone 4. I bought the Stereo at Crutchfield which has lifetime support for anything you get from them. After several hours of searching and reading forums I broke down and called Crutchfield. Supplied my order number and explained what was happening. They told me even though the maunal say use 0000 , try 1234 . Did 1234 and I now have the iPhone5 paired to my Alpine.

  • Integrating the iPhone with the car

    I have been wondering what I could do to integrate my iPhone with my car's custom stereo.
    Could a cable like this: http://www.wirelesshut.com/0/10424871.html work properly? Both ends would fit into their respective ports and such, but with the iPhone sometimes giving error messages such as 'You can't use such and such product with the iPhone', I would like to know before hand if this feat is possible.
    Any body have any prior experience?

    im assuming you dont have factory installed stereo equipment....
    first i would actually contact the manufacturer to see if the iPhone is compatible...
    i bought an alpine system w/bluetooth & ipod capabilities last year, got the phone recently and was told that the bluetooth will not work with the iphone, but the ipod function will work, but if i use it as an ipod and its connected to my car's system, the phone function wont work

  • 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.

    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!!!!)

  • How to play a music on my iPhone through my car radio ??

    I want to play a song on my iPhone through my car radio but not via an FM adapter. I don't want to connect anything. If there is an application, I can search for any station on this application and the same station on the radio so It will connect automatically. For example, the station number on the application is ( 100.06 ) so I have to search for the same satation number ( 100.06 ) on the radio to play the songs on my iPhone.
    Thanks alot for your time.
    Regards,

    You can use Bluetooth devices that are either integrated into the car or purchased separately. This might look something like: iPhone > Bluetooth wireless signal > Bluetooth receiver > wired analog audio plugged into car stereo AUX port.
    If you don't have built-in Bluetooth or an AUX port, you will need an FM transmitter, some of which are wireless but do need to connect to the iPhone directly.

  • IPod touch 2G does't work with Kenwood car radio anymore

    Hi
    since a few days ago, my iPod touch 2G does not work anymore with my car radio Kenwood KDC-W4544U.
    When i connect the iPod to the radio, the radio display shows "Reading", which it normally shows for like 5 seconds. But now the "Reading" lasts forever, after 10 minutes of trying to let my radio read the iPod, i have no other possibility but listen to CD or radio...
    I have already shut down and restarted the iPod, synched it, even restored it via iTunes. I also tried three different connection cables.
    Is this a known problem and is there maybe a solution?
    Thanks in advance for an answer

    Problem could be solved by hard-resetting the radio

  • Hello I just bought a car VW scirocco and I can't pair the iPhone with the car as the car says that the phone is not compatible so what can I do ?

    Please I want to know what can I do to pair my iPhone to my VW as the car says that the phone is not compatible and I tried other phones and it worked very good.
    Thanks

    You must change or bluetooth module to a more recent one. It's under the passanger seat.
    I use this one: 5N0 035 730D. It works great on with the iPhone. You can even play musics from the iphone to the radio (on RCD 510 or RNS 510) wirelessly, using BT-Audio.
    I think you can buy it on ebay. It's relatively cheap.
    BTW, is your board computer red or white? If it's red there is no bluetooth module comptible with your car and the iPhone. It must be white.

  • Problem after iOS5 with pairing iPhone with Car

    I have a Lexus is250 which paired beautifully with my iPhone and I was able to play music from phone in my car.  Since the upgrade, I cannot.  I have "repaired" "Blue tooth audio", the radio in car "looks" like it is playing (you can use the controls on the car stereo to forward through playlist and it forwards on phone" but no sound comes out.  This worked perfectly fine before iOS.  Any ideas?  I've deleted and re-paired phone twice....

    Same problem here with a 2011 Subaru Outback/Harman Kardon sound system. My iPhone 3GS used to work very well and auto-connect with the Harman Kardon system under iOS 4, but after upgrading to iOS 5 the iPhone looses connectivity each time I power the iPhone off and back on. It will keep connectivity as long as I do not do this. Turning the car off and back on works fine, connectivity re-establishes immediately. I even reset my iPhone and re-installed firmware and everything else - problem persists. SHAME ON APPLE FOR LOOSING CORE FUNCTIONALITY IN FAVOR OF BRINGING IN LOTS OF GIMMICS THAT ARE OF LITTLE OR NO USE IN EVERYDAY LIFE. SHAME ON APPLE ALSO FOR NOT PROPERLY BETA-TESTING THEIR SOFTWARE AND MAINTAINING BACKWARD-COMPATIBILITY IF THAT IS THE PROBLEM. We users should be entilted to monetary compensation from Apple whenever a software "upgrade" negatively affects a core functionality. Tim Cook, please correct some of the flawed corporate policies the belated Steve Jobs implemented. Apple still has a lot of room for improving! First of all, focus on optimizing core functionalities and their robustness before wasting time on changing icons or other cosmetic features.

  • Using iPhone 4 with my car radio

    I have a car radio which can connect to the standard iPhone (or iPod or iPad) connector/charger port and the music from the device can then be played through the car speakers. The tracks and playlists are listed on the radio and you control the device through the radio using the radio's "jog" dial. However, when first connecting, I always get the message about this accessory not being suitable to use with the iPhone, but click the "dismiss" button and everything works fine. How can I get rid of this annoying message?

    On a side note to my question above, when I have my iPad connected, I should like to be able to control the music through the iPod app on the iPad itself, but there is a constant 'wallpaper' on screen saying "accessory connected" rather than the iPod app. If I quit the app the iPad's desktop is displayed correctly and the music does not stop, but launch the iPod app again and it displays momentarily before resorting to the same "accessory connected" background. Any ideas on how to play the music from my iPad, rather than the radio - because when using my iPhone I can control from either device?

  • Cannot pair iPhone with hands free car system

    I am having trouble with my Merecedes recognizing my iPhone. I paired it and the phone is "authorized" with the car, but when I try to connect the two, the screen for the phone flashes and then disappears saying "no phone". It worked fine with my Blackberry but won't connect to the iPhone. iPhne help says perhaps my car system is not compatible, but it is a 2007 model and the Blackberry 8700 had no problems. Can anyone help?

    I have been having the same problems. Do you use a PC or a Mac to sync with your iPhone? I think the problem is with PC's but I am not sure yet. It may have something to do with an apple device driver on PC's. Mine works if I restart the driver in the computer and sync it but I have to do every day.

    My toyota Seinna 2011 refuses to connect with my Iphone 6 as a "portable player".  Message says for me to adjust the player.  On the phone it is searching for other devices but not connecting.  Now same phone is paired with the car multimedia system and will take and make calls.  Help!

    I very much doubt it  if you consider how much data Apple release to App developers
    to allow them to create apps that  work under iOS
    Audi being lazy like most of the other motor manufacturers
    They will be registered developers and as such get all the info and data they need

                Hi imissmn,
    The details from Ann154 are pretty good ways to begin. You can check if the iPhone 5 is compatible by checking the car manufacture's website. You can also provide us with the car make, model and year along with the bluetooth technology (is the manufacture makes more than one). We want to confirm your device details so please let us know as quick as can be.
    Thank you,

  • IPhone & JVC DAB Car Radio - advice

    Hi Guys & Gals,
    Can I seek your advice please?
    I have a JVC DAB car radio which has a USB connection for my iPod. Works fine when I connect my iPod, but I now have an iPhone 3GS.
    When I connect this to the head unit via the USB the iPhone doesn't recognize the head unit or vica-a-versa?
    Can I get/buy and App for my iPhone which will mimic the iPod and thus enable my JVC head unit to play my IPhone?
    Surely I'm not alone requiring this feature for my wonderful iPhone?
    Can anyone help or advise?

    My 3gs USED to work with my JVC head unit until I upgraded to 3.0.1. Now it will not even detect my phone, my phone makes the USB hookup sound and charges, but nothing else works. I've tried downgrading to 3.0 and that does not work. I think apple decided to "fix" something that was not broke. way to go apple.

  • Pairing Iphone with Lexus

    I previously had a 3G Iphone which paired brilliantly with my bluetooth system in my 4 year old car. However, the new 3GS Iphone does not pair at all, the Iphone can not find any devices. I'm guessing this maybe to do with the 3GS software being version 2.1 as opposed to 2.0 and is now not compatible with my LX-350 Lexus. If this is the case, is it possible to download the older version? or is there another way around this problem?

    I had this same problem a couple of times with previous versions of the frimware on my Acura TL.... Here's what worked for me when I upgraded to the 3gs... Do a hard reset on your phone (hold the sleep/wake button and home button simultaneously for about 10 seconds or so) the phone will shut down... Release the two buttons and turn your phone back on... Try the pairing process now, it should have fixed the problem... If that doesn't fix the problem then do a restore in iTunes... The restore method worked for me back in the 2.0 firmware days.... Good luck

  • Pairing iPhone with a 2006 Audi Q7

    Anyone had any success pairing an iPhone with a 2006 Audi Q7. It initially seemed to pair with ease. Now it is less frequently creating a Bluetooth connection with the car. The phone is saying that it is successfully paired with the car. Any suggestions

    Your iPhone is probably still running 1.1.3. If you upgrade to 1.1.4, your iPhone will be able to pair up with the GPS perfectly. I have two Garmin Nuvi 680s and my iPhones pair up with them with 1.1.4 with no problems.
