Playing iphone in the car???

Does anyone know how to play the iphone through your car? My car is a 2006, but it doesn't have an auxiliary jack for playing music. I tried buying an FM modulator, but it doesn't work. I also went to the apple store and was told by a customer service rep that the iphone doesn't work with FM modulators. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

i have the same promblem before,i dont have AUX output in my car. Now i can play my iphone in the car also make a call or recived with one touch botton. what i did is the following:
1.Buy a fm transmiter with AUX output this item already include a USB charger. you may use this to charge your iphone but your iphone will ask you to turn on the airplane mode just ignore it. all you need anyway,is to charge your iphone.
2.AUX cable
3.Headphone jack
iphone owners, we all know the speaker phone is'nt loud enough specially when you are in the car.i asked my self if can do something!so i came up with something.the earphone that came with the iphone has a microphone.for me to able to play my iphone to make a call or recive a call and ect.in my car. what i did is by modifying the AUX cable.i copied the idea from the earphone that came with iphone.so i went to radio shack get the cheap microphone and soldering iron.
What i did is the following:
1.cut the AUX cable in half and peel off the color coded wire.
2.disassemble the mic and take out the microphone from the holder you dont need this.
3.start soldering it, whit AUX cable.
note:
make sure the color of the wire are the same. white and red goes to the microphone and the ground together.when you finish install the AUX cable with microphne along with your fm transmiter and iphone.make sure the microphone is invisable for no echos.
good luck and have fun

  • Why am I unable to play games on my Touch if WiFi is unavailable. The kids like to play games in the car ?

    The kids like to play games in the car. i dont always want them to use my phone. I bought an Ipod touch partially for this reason but games can not be played if we are not close to WiFi. If would have known this I would not have bought it. Can I change this in any way. in Settings??

    Some games require an internet connection and some do not. It seems that the ones yu kids are using require an internert connection. The iPod can only connect to the internet via wifi.
    If your phone and data plan supported tethering/persone hotspot then use you phone to connect to the iternet and the iPods can then connect to your phone via wifi (or bluetooth for iPhone tethering)

  • Ipod - Playing it in the car ???

    I just got my iphone today and im very pleased so far its everything i was expecting and then some !. Well i put music on it via - itunes. I get in the car i hook it up to the transmitter have it tuned to the station but. Then what ?? no message pops up like ive been told. the music just plays through the speakerphone ?? what should i do ?? I wanna play it through the car ! Thanks.

    I had the black iTrip that was an integrated cigarette lighter adapter and it worked fine with my iPhone.
    However, I have not used my fm transmitter since I had firmware 1.1.0 (I got satellite radio). So it is possible that not all transmitters will work with iPhone, and also possible that the newer iPhone software won't let it play with the fm transmitters anymore..
    I can say mine did work with no probs before though.

  • Can iPhone be stopped from always playing music in the car?

    Hi.
    My sister & I both have an iPhone. (Mine is a 4; hers is a 5C.)
    Until we bought a new car in April, the battery consumption on our phones was quite acceptable. The problem is that our new car has a Bluetooth connection, and it seems to 'take over' our iPhones whenever they're connected to it via Bluetooth. Every time we go to our phones after being in the car we find that the phone is playing music, even though we've not been listening to that music in the car. (99% of the time we're in the car we listen to the car radio, so the music is playing in vain on our phones.)
    The music isn't bothering us of course, because we can't hear it. But we've been finding that it has been dramatically affecting the battery life on our iPhones. We seem to be charging them far more now than we did before.
    Is there any way of stopping our iPhones from always playing music when they're connected via Bluetooth to the car please? Our car is a Ford Fiesta fitted with something called SYNC.
    (We don't want to turn Bluetooth off of course, because it provides hands-free use of the iPhones for talking on the telephone. We just want it to stop playing music.)

    Check the settings for your car's stereo. It is telling the phone to start playing music when connected. It's not a setting on the phone.

  • Playing my iPhone through the car stereo

    I am looking for a new car stereo and the biggest feature I want is to be able to play music off of my iPhone on it. Almost every model I've looked at says it plays wma/mp3/aac. Most of my music files are mp3s, but the last few CDs I ripped in .m4a (Apple loseless). After researching it, I kind of have the impression that m4as are converted to aac, and will be played, but cannot for the life of me find a place that definitively says this. Can anyone help me out?

    Not sure if this info is necessary, but some players connect to the iPhone through the headphone jack, some through USB, and most can do either.

  • Need help Using iphone5 with Bluetooth in 2006 Volvo xc90. I have paired my phone and can make calls. I want to play music on my iPhone using the car's sounds system.

    I have just purchased a 2006 Volvo with Bluetooth. I have paired my phone with the car to make phone calls. I don't have a way to play my iTunes music through the cars audio system. Is there a special auxiliary adapter that I need to buy?

    Nobody have notice this problem or have a tip for that?

  • Can I play iPhone app on car tv screen?

    I want to play DisneyJr videos on our upcoming road trip from my iPhone on our car tv screen. Can I do this without jailbreaking my phone?
    I know I need to buy a A/V cord and download Cydia (I think - correct me if I'm wrong).
    Thanks!

    Hacking your iphone cannot be discussed here.
    Cydia is an iphone hack.
    If you have the proper cables, then you should be able to watch movies on your car screen just as you could on your home screen without hacking the iphone.

  • 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.

  • IPhone in the Car?

    Anyone have any comments and suggestions about how the iPhone can be used in our cars.
    Any comments on car accessories and if the iPhone sound can be heard on the FM radio.

    In my Volvo '07 S60R I have the Volvo Bluetooth hands free kit installed. This kit provides complete hands free operation and has voice commands to make and receive calls.
    My previous Palm Treo 650 worked kinda with this kit but would only do so if it had no more than 12 contacts - a real bummer and I suspect it was related to BT software level incompatibilities between the Treo 650 and the Volvo's BT hands free kit.
    Having sold my Treo for $150 on Craigslist and replacing it with the iPhone I find EVERYTHING works as it should in my Volvo. There's no limitation on the number of contacts in the iPhone which is awesome for me. The iPhone also doubles as a music player thru my car's head unit and incoming calls cut the music, radio or CD playing automatically. The iPhone can be used manually to make call while it's connect to my Volvo's iPod adapter.
    I'm a very happy camper wrt how the iPhone operates in my car and it's so much better than my previous Palm Treo 650.

  • Whenever I plug my iPhone into the car charger (professionally installed and hardwired), it comes up with the yellow triangle and exclamation mark saying that this accessory isn't supported.   It's been working quite fine since 2010, now it's not.

    My iPhone car charger was professionally installed in 2010 and again in 2013 and had been working perfectly for all of this time, now it's coming up with the yellow triangle and the text saying that this accessory isn't supported.    Is there an easy way to fix this without tearing everything to bits?    It all appears to have gone boonta about 3 upgrades ago and I haven't been able to use it since.
    I've seen and tried the suggestions on Google, none of them work for long, and I'm certainly not going to tear the car kit or phone apart to overcome something that is obviously a software issue.    Surely Apple can overcome this?
    And the bloody "Terms and Conditions" fiasco!   55 pages of mumbo jumbo that nobody would read EVER, and you get to the end and nothing happens.   I've bought an app from Apple to use on their product and I can't install it because the Terms and Conditions doesn't accept anything.   Surely they can fix this?
    Come on.....waiting.

  • Limiting radio interference when listening to iPhone in the car

    I was wondering if anyone had a solution to this semi-problem. I have a 2001 Jeep Cherokee LImited - with both a cd and tape player. I used a cassette adapater with my former iPod- worked fine. I recently purchased an iPhone and the Belkin iPhone Headphone Adapter. The adapter works fine and I can listen to the iPod feature on my iPhone. However, every once in a while I will get radio interference in my speakers.
    I know I can switch to airplane mode - but that sort of defeats the purpose! Any ideas out there to get ride of the interference? Thanks!

    I get this when I listen to Sirius. You can never keep the same empty station on the radio when you travel between as many cities as I do.
    There is a device that was made witch basically severs the connection between the radio and the antenna on your car. The device costs about $20-$40 depending on where you get it and sales. If you have Sirius or XM you can just install that device and solve the problem for both the Sat Radio and the Belkin transmitter.
    The downside to this is that you will still need to have the satelite radio turned on to stop the antenna connection.
    Basically without the full length of the antenna on the car, you can only hear the loudest and clearest stations. This will leave you with hundreds of choices rather than 2 or 3.
    I do not know if they make a similar device with a switch rather than relying on the satelite signal, but it could be worth a check.

  • TS3581 Playing ipod in the car

    Device makes a connection in the car (song info displays on radio) through cord that came with car but music won't play through stereo. When it is plugged in, the devices recognizes a connection as well and will start playing music on the device. Other ipods will just fine through the stereo. The problem one is an iPod touch iOP 6.1.6. software is up to date and We have tried resetting it.

    Which devices/iOS devices do work?
    Does the car manufactiures say it will work with your model iPod/iOS?
    Sometimes this works
    - Reset all settings                 
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • IPhone and the Car

    Has anyone figured out where the iPhone fits in the car? I have an IPod in my glovebox, connected to the car COMAND system with an iPod Kit. I can select tracks from the instrument display of the car. I also have my current GSM phone in a cradle, also connected to the COMAND system. When the iPhone becomes available in Europe, I hope to buy one, but how do I integrate it to my car? I do not want or intend to use a Bluetooth headset nor do I want to change the car!

    Sounds like the Mercedes Benz system is rather proprietary, so I won't try to interpret these reports I found while searching the iPhone forums.

  • Listen to my iphone on the car

    does any one knows what I can use to listen to my iphone on my car? is there something designed for the iphone already or do I have to use the ipod stuff?

    The Kennsington 33185 is fantastic. It is a FM transmiter that is made for Ipods. When you plug in an Iphone a screen comes up saying it doesn't work but you click cancel and it works like a dream with incredible sound as well as charging your phone. If a call comes in the music mutes and the phone rings. There is enough cord to pick up and answer the call. If you go to radio schack and buy the RF shield device for $6 you won't get any interference when the cell changes. Works great.

  • 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
