Why is my iPod Touch Gen 5 losing sync in my car after iOS 7 update?

I have been running my iPod Touch 5 in my 2010 Chrysler 300C successfully under iOS 6, via the 30-pin to lightning connector.  Everything worked fine - I could leave the iPod locked in the glove compartment, and whe I returned several hours later, the iPod would fire up without a glitch where I left it.  Ever since I upgraded to iOS 7, however, the iPod somehow forgets that it is connected to the car, and starts playing through its own little speaker, not through the connector, when I start the car after several hours away. If I leave the car for just a few minutes - maybe a much as 30 minutes - the iPod works fine, and sound comes through the car audio system.  I am frustrated with this "bug" so much that I have even been on Craigslist trying to swap my iPod Touch 5 64GB for an iPod 4 Touch 64GB with iOS 6, but so far no takers - that's how much I want the old features!
Is this connector thing a bug, is it going to be addressed in a future iOS update?

Have you contacted Chrysler? Maybe they can help or there is a firmware update for the car system.
Sometimes this works:
- Reset car system
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- 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: How to back up                                                                
  - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
SOmetimes an iOS update breaks compatibility. In that case you have to wait for an iOS update or car firmware update

  • Why is my iPod touch Gen 5 still associated with my older Apple ID not my more recent one?

    This morning I ran across another problem. I still can't access my older [email protected] Apple ID account.
    I created a new Apple ID account but for some reason my iPod touch asked for the older Apple ID. I was trying to update Facebook, but I forgot my older password.
    I clicked on iForgot for [email protected] but the verification email was never sent.
    I clicked on the Next button many times but still no email.
    Can you please help me reset the old password to a new password of my choice?
    Finally how can I associate my iPod touch to my new Apple ID?
    This is frustrating me so much.
    Thank you.

  • Why is my iPod touch 4G charging and syncing more than just once even though I'm not unplugging the USB?

    Yesterday, I connected my iPod touch to my PC with the USB cable charger for my iPod touch 4th Generation. When I connect it, it will sync and back-up my iPod. Then it would say something like this "Sync Complete OK to disconnect." I didn't disconnect the USB or ANYTHING. After like 3 or 5 minutes, it would just sync and back-up my iPod again.. Then it would keep on doing that and after 4 or 5 times, it would finally stop. But, while I'm using my iPod and it's still charging through my PC, it keeps on making that noise when you connect your iPod to your PC/MAC to charge and when you disconnect your USB charger from your PC/MAC. It just makes that noise constantly.. Then, it will stop after a couple of minutes. This is really frustrating me. If someone could help, I would be glad and it will brighten my day. THANKS.

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

When I tried updating to the iOS 4.2, when the update was almost finished, I got an error message. Now it it just stuck on the "connect to iTunes screen"
    Yes, I have the latest version of iTunes.
    Yes, I uninstalled all Apple programs then re-installed iTunes (many times)
    Yes, I have updated the drivers
    Yes, my devices are "enabled"

    Any other ideas?

  • My ipod touch 2g will not sync to my itunes after being restored

    I restored my ipod after it started having some problems where the sound would stop and the volume bar would dissapear like it was connected to a dock.
    I reset all contents and settings from my ipod and restored it in recovery mode on my itunes , i had to do  did this several times because itunes would no let me restore and i kept getting all sorts of errors.
    I finally got it to restore my ipod and update to ios 4.2.1 but itunes only recognized my ipod once and now it wont recognize it at all , i tried with different usb cables and on different computers and  none can recognize my ipod. Can anyone help ? Thanks

    See if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make the iPod visible in iTunes so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

  • HT1975 why does my ipod touch 4th gen can't detect my location?

    why does my ipod touch 4th gen can't detect my location? i thought it was because updating foursquare. i have erased and restored its settings, but i was able to use my foursquare before even after the restoration, but now it's not working even my location services is on. Though, it can detect location in other areas, but it cant detect my location at home when before it used to check-in using foursquare.

    i tried to log in using my sister's iphone with foursquare and my account was able to check in. so it's all in my ipod's?
    No, the iPhone can determine location by GPS and cell tower locations neither of which the iPod can do.  So the fact that it works on the iPhoe does not tell you anything.  It could be that your router is not in Apple's database.  In that case you will just have to wait until they add it.  Try using a public wi-fi source to see if location works there.

  • Why won't my ipod touch gen 5 play audio on my Sony speaker dock

    Why won't my ipod touch gen 5 play audio on my Sony RDP-X30iP speaker dock. I have bought a lightning adapter and find that there is no audio from the speaker dock and the dock does not charge the ipod.

    - Reset the dock
    - Go to Sony's support site and check to see if they say it will work with a 5G iPod touch (w/adopter).
    Also look for a firmware update.
    Sometimes this works:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

    Or, it just may not be compatible.
