Why does my iPhone play muted music in the background when I connect to my car via Bluetooth? This put a drain on the phone battery

My iPhone 4s plays muted music in the background when connected via Bluetooth to my 2009 Ford Focus. This puts a heavy drain on the phone battery. I would appreciate any ideas to prevent this happening.

It doesn't really matter whether I am talking to Apple or not (and I'm sure they monitor these comments), I want everyone to know how bad this new iphone 4s is, and all of it's problems.
Apple have already launched an upgrade to the software - it obviously did not help, as many around the world would concur.
As far as being patient and waiting for another "update in the works" is concerned, it is just not satisfactory. This is not a cheap phone, and those who are experiencing these problems, should not have to be paying a substantial amount of money, for a very smart phone, that obviously, has some serious problems.

  • Why does my iPhone plays louder music in one side of the earphone than the other?

    Hello Apple Community,
    So I own this iPhone 4S which is about half a year old, and from this Monday onwards I kept feeling that my iPhone plays music louder in one side of the earphone than the other. I don't think it's my earphones because I just got them two weeks ago, and I always took good care of it. What can I do to solve this frustrating problem?
    Thanks!
    P.S. My earphones are the Klipsch x10. Costs about 300 bucks.

    The only setting on an iPhone that controls balance is here: Settings>General>Accessibility>Hearing.

  • Why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?

    why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?  The music isn't anything on my machine and the only way I can switch it off is to reboot.  Can anyone advise me please.  It's driving me nuts ... I don't even like the music it's playing!

    What apps are open and are you really still only on 10.5.1??????? At the very least please update your profile, also please remember to post more information. I suspect it's something going on with just your user account. You can verify that by creating another user account (call it TEST ACCOUNT) and log into that account and test. Once this has been verified then you will need to check which apps are running to determine what is causing your issue.

  • Why does my iphone come up with a different email when updating apps?

    why does my iphone come up with a different email when updating apps?
    Everytime I go to update my apps some other persons email or AppleID comes up and I have to cancel.  its annoying enough to have to update all the time but now I have about100 update notifications (don't judge, you probably have a ton of apps too..haha) that are sitting idol, what's up how do I fix?
    thx

    p.s. not updating to iOS6 yet

    I'm sorry Allan, I should have clarified, your answer is improbable (well the first part atleast).
    The apps I have had since the first week of purchase of my iphone back in 2011,  I have not added any apps until 2 months before the last software update.  This starting happening when the new software was implemented but I have not updated to iOS6 yet.  Unless this person was able to hack into my account & transfer them to their account, I do not see how that is possible.
    Prior to seeing this other AppleID, I have a popup to prompt me for my AppleID each time I download content.  Each time I would see mine and enter my password.

    why does my iPhone 4 always say "sync will resume when "... MacBook Pro" is available??? i can't seem to sync over wifi

    Try the following:
    1. Connect the phone to your computer using the USB cable and let it sync.
    2. Uncheck "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi"
    3. Click Apply
    4. Check "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi"
    5. Click Apply
    6. Quit iTunes
    7. Disconnect the phone from the USB cable
    8. Make sure your phone is connected to your Wi-Fi network
    9. Open iTunes
    iTunes should see your iPhone and connect to it. Go under Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync and see if you can initiate a sync.

  • Why does my iphone only send one picture multiple times when i select multiple photos to send?

    why does my iphone send one picture multiple times when i select multiple photos to send (via message or email)?

    Are you sending via Camera itself?
    That is, selecting a picture, then select forward link symbol from bottom left
    then select another picture,
    Each time make sure you see the blue check mark at bottom right of each selected picture.
    The number of " # Photos Selected" should be displayed at the top.
    Then select Mail or Message and transmit.

  • My iPhone 5 does not connect to my Macbook via Bluetooth (this is so frustrating!!)

    Ok so i bought my iPhone 5 a couple days ago. So i installed and applications from app store ( on my mac ) which enables me to control my iphone through my mac (via bluetooth). It's very cool when my iphone is docked so i don't need to reach to it every single time. AND. guess what. my iphone refuses to connect to macbook and vice versa.
    This is sooo frustrating i'm gonna die.
    When i go to the general settings and bluetooth menu, it doesn't even find my macbook. I need to go to the bluetooth menu on mac, set up bluetooth device and then select my iphone. Then, it does pair. BUT it doesn't connect it says:
    Connection Unsuccessful
    "Macbook Pro" is not supported.
    And gives me only on option: "Forget Device"
    Any help?

    you mentioned you purchased from the mac app store, the only thing I could find is Type2Phone, and that app has some ts'ing steps in its description that match almost exactly what you described /

  • Why does my ipad play louder music than my phone through my headphones?, I have the beats solo hd

    When I am listening to music from my iPad and I switch to my iPhone listening to the same songs with the same headphones it is noticeably quieter when coming from my iPhone, I have the iPad 3 and the iPhone 5. Please someone help

    I can't really say why it's doing that, other than to say perhaps you should have a hardware check at the Apple Store. However, you just might be able to do something by resetting your iPad to it's factory default setup. Be sure to do your backups.

  • Why does my iPhone remove all music when I switch on itunes match?

    How I usually put music on my phone is to switch on itunes match and download from the cloud the music from my library, then when finished
    I switch off itunes match and I am left with the music I wanted. However, if i then put itunes match back on it will wipe all songs, leaving me having to download ~700 songs all over again for the sake of an album or two.
    Am I doing this completely wrong? Or is this a common problem?

    Instead of switching off iTunes match, switch off the show all music tab just below it.
    It will hide all the non downloaded iTunes match songs.

  • Why does my iPhone 5 delete music when I press shuffle?

    I am using ios 7.0.2. and have found a new problem that's been driving me crazy!
    When I press the shuffle button, my phone deletes music, between 2 and 10 tracks per time. Any ideas why this is happening and ideas to resolve it?

    Yes, that's the way it works. Once it's plugged in, you can turn it off. There's no harm in leaving it on, however.

  • Why does hbogo show up like music and no video when playing on apple tv using an Ipad

    When I select my apple tv on the video off the ipad  it starts a song playing

    Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).
    HBO Go amongst a few others have decided to not enable Video AirPlay in their app and have specifically blocked it from allowing AirPlay mirroring.
