Problem with in-car handsfree

I'm going to re-test/play around with this some more tomorrow, but my 2006 BMW bluetooth hands-free doesn't seem compatible? It pairs and dials, but the sound still comes out of the handset and not the car speakers.
Anyone else experience anything similar?

I have the same problem with the handsfree in a 2007
BMW X5
The iPhone brings up a screen allowing audio choice between
the normal iPhone handset, speakerphone setting on the iPhone
itself and the handsfree in the car. The handsfree setting still plays over the iPhone.
I've had a Razr and Treo both paired with the car system
with no problem.
No ideas so far.

    how do i get my iphone5 to sync with my cars handsfree bluetooth?

    You need to check the car's manual to see how to put the car into discovery/pairing mode. Once that is done, the iPhone and car should recognize each other, so long as Bluetooth is turned on in the phone. You may have to enter a passcode in the phone for the vehicle, but that is generally explained in the vehicle's manual.

  • Is it possible to get Siri to work with 'old' Car handsfree systems?

    Is it possible to get Siri to work with 'old' Car handsfree systems?
    Unless I'm missing something - Siri doesn't work well with older handsfree car systems - as typically the cars built in system handles the voice control and relays the request to the phone over bluetooth protocols.  I tried initiating siri standalone while connected to the car and it failed.
    I was hoping I might be able to do some sneaky like 'Call Siri' to enter Siri mode but it doesn't seem to work.
    I'm guessing future Car handsfree systems will be Siri aware - but making Siri work with older systems (and my car isn't old - it's a 2011 model) would be very useful.
    Has anyone come up with a workaround?  I really don't want to have to buy or use a bluetooth ear piece
    Thanks

    I never heard anything on this and so am still unable to use Siri without touching my phone.

  • Problems with a car adapter?

    I have an ipod nano along with 3 other members of my family who also have ipod nanos. We purchased an adapter for the car to listen to the music through the radio. The adapter we bought wasn't apple brand, but 3 of the ipods work fine with it. When I plug my ipod into the adapter, it doesn't play even when it says it's playing on the ipod. I turn both the sound on the ipod and radio up, but it doesn't work. What might be the problem with my ipod and what should I do?
    ipod nano   Windows XP  

    I've used radio-type iPod adapters that recognized any file format the iPod would play--in my case, most of them are not MP3, they're AAC or even sound from MPEG movies. The radio adapter simply receives an audio signal from the iPod and broadcasts it on a low-power transmitter. It probably never knows (or cares about) the format of the file in the iPod.
    I would first plug in earbuds to make sure there is audio playing. Next, I'd make sure the connector is properly and firmly connected. Finally, I'd make sure that the frequency your adapter is broadcasting is the same one the radio is tuned to.
    I found the sound quality from the FM radio adapters disappointing and switched to a cassette adapter, which sounded much better. If your stereo has an auxiliary input, using that would give even better sound quality. I hope that helps.

  • Problem with Apple Care Registration Process

    My MacBook warranty will expire pretty soon. So, I ordered my Apple Care Protection Plan from Apple online store in Thailand since September 9, 2009. It arrived this morning (September 15, 2009).
    When I try to register Apple care for my machine, Problem was starting. I do following on screen process, put my Macbook Serial No. and Apple Care Protection Plan registration No from package. Screen Show "We're sorry, but this registration number is not valid. Please check your information and try again."
    I tried to contact Apple Care representative in Thailand. He was kindly enough to ask Apple online Store about this. He came back with answer that there are some problems about Apple care registration and I have to wait for week for response!!
    Why product from apple online have this kind of problem? And customer have to wait for one week without knowing anything!!

    You should be fine. The good thing is 1) you bought it from Apple and 2) you have contacted them about it before your initial warranty expired. Just be sure to follow up with them. If you haven't done so... you may want to give them a call back just to get a case number so you can have something to reference in case they don't get the problem sorted out before you warranty expires.

  • Upgrading Iphone problem with sim care problem

    Hello,
    I bought my iphone in the U.S. from at&t. Now I am traveling in france. Yesterday I tried to upgrade the iphone to the new ios 6 version and in the end the phone asked me to insert the compatible sim card that came with the phone. I have been using a gevey iphone unlock card with my french sim card so i have never tried to jailbreak my iphone. So I tried to jailbreak the phone so my foreign sim card can activate it, but it just did not work out. Now I am trying to have my original at&t sim card sent to me. I want to know if it will still work to insert my old at&t card to activate my iphone after failing to jailbreak the phone. In addition, because I am traveling abroad, I suspended my at&t service for now, will that affect its ability to activate the phone?
    I would really appreciate if anyone can give me a response to my length problem. Thank you so much.

    and it's a iphone 4

  • Does ios6 resolve iphone4s Bluetooth connectivity problems with Clarion car stereos?

    Clarion cx609 and iPhone 4s don not seem to be compatible.  It pairs momentarily and the disconnects, or will not auto connect after car is turned off and restarted.  Is this an A2DP issue with IP4s?  So frustrated, this seems like a simple thing.  Supposed to be plug and play right?
    Any help would be great.

    I have a similar issue and Apple is completely ignoring it.

  • Problem with iPhone car cable

    I have an Audi A4, which was supplied with a fitted iPhone cable, to allow charging of the phone and playing music. The new 3G phone works perfectly but the cable doesn't charge the phone anymore. Does anyone know if I can buy a converter? Audi don't seem to be able to help

    The older car docks deliver power over the FireWire pins, which newer iPhone models cannot use. You need a charge converter.

A repair shouldn’t take this long. Can someone help me? How do I raise my case?

    Did you follow these instructions:
    How do I get my iPod serviced?
    Easy! If your iPod is still covered by Apple's Limited Warranty for iPod, we recommend you use theOnline Service Assistant. You may also contact Apple Technical Support, or take your iPod to your localApple Retail Store to make service arrangements.

  • Possible problems with iPod car use?

    I'm am thinking about getting an iPod and an car adapter for use in my car. My only question is...will an iPod be damaged by sitting in my car overnight in low temps?

    Possibly. One thing I do know about rechargable batteries is that they run down very quickly when exposed to cold.
    Also, your car may be damaged when some one breaks into it to steal the iPod.

  • Problem with Nokia N96 handsfree HS-45, AD-54

    Hi,
    I've had a Nokia N96 for about 2 months now and all the time whenever I play music using both parts of the headset, the music only plays through the left earphone. But when I remove the remote control, then the music plays through both. Any ideas on how to fix this?
    Thanks
    mm01

    It looks like you have a faulty remote.
    That part should be covered by a six month warranty so take it to a nokia care point and they should replace it.

  • I have problem with 4s and my car 2011 passant cc always drob after I connect phone to car . What Can I do to solve this problem ?

    I have the same problem with my car passat cc 2011 and my phone 4s that drob connection and  calls after time so what can I do to solve this problem ?

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
    If a second-hand iOS device has been 'Activation locked' then only the previous owner - effectively the shop in this case - can unlock it, either by providing you with the account ID and password, or by removing it from his list of devices (as he should have done before selling it) - please see http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4515
    If you are unable to contact them to do this then I'm afraid you will not be able to use the device - there is no other way of unlocking it at all. Apple cannot unlock it for you.

  • Samsung Fascinate, problems with playing music via USB port on car stereo

    Before the update, I could play the music files on my Fascinate via the USB port on my Kenwood stereo, and control basic functions such as skip, pause etc.  Now, my stereo does not recognize the device, and cannot read the files.  I went to local Verizon store where a sales rep tried to connect it in here new Kia Soul and it didn't recognize the device either. It will play via the AUX jack, but I lose player control and the phone does not charge via the AUX cable.  She did a hard reset which did not resolve the problem.  We tried one of the other employee's Fascinate in my car, which did not work either.
    So, after hoping to be able to stream music via Pandora, Jango etc thru the USB port after the update, now it seems its primary function is for charging.
    Also, the ALL SHARE function, which I used to get the music on my phone originally, does not work now.
    Anyone else have this issue with music player and USB connection?

    txgopher- I have personally never used my Fascinate to listen to music via USB via stereo however, I can see why it would be frustrating for you to no longer be able to do so when it was never an issue prior to the update.
    It sounds as though you and the store rep already did some troubleshooting by trying to duplicate the problem with another car, stereo and even doing the final troubleshooting step which is a master reset.
    Since you have done all of the necessary troubleshooting steps to no avail, it most definitely appears as though the software update has interfered with that USB connection in some way.
    What I have done is forwarded the information you have provided to Samsung in order for them to look into this concern as well as come up with a way to get this resolved.
    Please stay tuned because as soon as we hear back from Samsung we will be sure to update this forum with the results/findings.

  • Problems with car charger

    I dont think i have read anything like this on the forums yet. Im on my second torch and although i like it a lot being (personal opinion) best blackberry yet (functionwide) , I feel it has some issues that are making me think a lot. I had a problem with the first one, i was charging it in my car (original BB charger) and some times i would see the lighting icon with the phone charging and sometimes not. I wanted to know if it was charging or not, so i tested for minutes looking at the battery % and nothing. Then the phone started to overheat and was not charging anymore, i took it to best buy mobile where i purchased it and they gave me different car chargers to test it. I did test it but i told them that my charger was orgiunal blackberry accesory and that i charge a 9700 and a 8520 from my wife. Nothing happened, they gave me a new phone. With the new one i noticed the b atter life was superb, was way better. but after 4-5 days (yesterday) the battery went dead at 5pm with slight use on the day, i tried charging the cellphone while eating, so i left it charging in the car and when i returned the phone was hot and not charging. Im really confused
    Things i know>
    1. its not the car charger, its charging other BB fine and its original accesory
    2. Its not the lighter in my car cause i also charge other phones
    please advice

    I too am on my second torch in 8 days. I am also having a problem with the car charger. The lightning bolt goes off while charging, especially when I am using AT&T Navigator. The second phone is not as bad as the first one was, but I don't know how well it will do in the weeks to come.
    I had this same problem with my original AT&T Blackberry, the 8900. In that case, a battery swap solved the problem. With the Torch, I really don't know what is going on, but this is a serious problem because I use the AT&T Navigator all the time in my business and I have to keep my battery charged.
    I hope Blackberry recognizes that there IS a problem and fixes it.
