Will 3G contacts sync with Kenwood Car Stereo?

I recently purchased a Kenwood DNX7140 car stereo for my vehicle. I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts/address book into the phone book on the stereo. The Kenwood directions are very vague and direct me to the cellphone manual. I have a iPhone 3G v3.1.3. Does anyone know if it is possible to sync my contacts via Bluetooth, and if so how? Also, the number keypad on the stereo to manually enter a phone number is grayed out and not accessible, I can't figure out what I'm missing! Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

My iphone 5 no longer syncs with my car stereo.

I'm unable to link my phone through my usb port to my stereo. I had no problem with my iphone 4s. I'm assuming its the new connector. I'm wondering if a new adapter fix the problem?

OK. Purchased the adapter and still doesn't sync to my car stereo. I'm considering sending the phone back for another 4s unless someone has a solution. I'm driving a 2010 Altima with Bluetooth capability, but the music has to be sync through the USB.

Ever since I updated iTunes my iPods will not sync with my cars

Ever since I updated iTunes my iPods will not sync with my cars.I have a 30g and 60g 5th gen iPods that I use in my two car. In my cars I have a dealer installed integration module so that I can navigate my I pods play list artist and song titles using the radio itself. Ever since that last iTunes update 7.3.1. I no longer am able to use this feature. I used my sister’s 30g iPod that she did has not updated and the system works fine. Can someone help me with this problem.

I have had an Alpine head unit in my car with the ipod connection for about a year and it has worked fine until recently. Now I get an error message on the ipod that reads, "The currently attached accessory is not supported by this ipod." I have tried connecting a buddy's ipod to my car stereo, and his still works fine with it. I've done the 5 R's, tried going back to an older version of itunes as Alpine suggested. My next step will be going to the Apple store with an appointment, seeing what they say.

IPhone 6 with iOs 8 and Kenwood car stereo

My new iPhone 6 (using iOs 8) will not work with my Kenwood car stereo correctly. It says the bluetooth is connected and tries to place a call but the calls are not connecting to the stereo. Is anyone else having this trouble and know how to fix it?
I tried forgetting the device (the stereo) and re-pairing, which caused the phone to randomly try to connect to nothing through the stereo.
Any ideas?

Does your stereo have a USB port, and if so, have you tried to connect via USB?
I'm having issues even with the USB on my Kenwood. Check out this post: iPhone 6 won't play with Kenwood stereo USB port. Help !!

TS4118 Ever since I got the iphone 5 my phone/icloud calender and contacts will not remain synced with Outlook. I am constantly having to sign in and sign out and unlink and re link to Outlook.

Ever since I got the iphone 5 my phone/icloud calender and contacts will not remain synced with Outlook. I am constantly having to sign in and sign out and unlink and re link to Outlook. this creates multiple categories of contacts and calenders and I have no idea which is syncing with my phone, ipad, outlook. Help. thanks.

Sounds like the Outlook plugin isn't working properly. You could try a couple of things:
Go to Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs, uninstall iCloud, the download and install the iCloud contol panel for Windows again from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455. Then sign back into your iCloud account and check your syncing settings again.
Uninstall iTunes and all of its components as by following this guide exactly: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall iTunes. You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful. (Uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.) This will replace the Outlook plugin.
Then try your calendar again and see if it will sync properly now.

Kenwood Car Stereo iPod Interface

I have a Kenwood Car Stereo head unit and their iPod interface (KDC4531W and KCA IP500 respectively) which work really well.
Tonight I had to hard reset the iPod (via Menu and Play) to get the system to recognise the iPod following stopping and starting the car. The head unit displayed E-60 as the error code. I'm sure this isn't a deep sleep problem, unless the timer is set at less than an hour...
Following the reset it all worked OK...
Anyone else seen this? Anyone know what caused it?
(I've just downloaded iTunes 6 and am using iPod Software 3.1 in the iPod)
Thanks
Rob

Thanks Paul - at least I know its not me...
I'm going to try reformatting & syncing my iPod to see if that works.
I assume the IP500 will work with the new ipods - it certainly works with our Mini and 4G one. Suggest you email Kenwood support, they're really helpful!

Kenwood Car stereo lost bluetooth connection

I have a kenwood car stereo and it never consistantly connects to my blue tooth phone. I will get HF Disconect and then it will never conect again. I have tried to delete my phone and re pair it but that doesn't work. I am not sure how to get my phone and the stereo to connect once it seems to have lost the pairing.

Please reference your manual for instructions on pairing your phone with the HU...

My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.

My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes. it tells me it cannot read the contents of the ipod then it says the ipod software server cannot be contacted. Any suggestions?

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Then try restoring again.

How do I stop my contacts syncing with Outlook 2011?

Hi - I have been using Outlook 2011 but I want to stop using it because it's really buggy. I have opened sync services in Outlook and unchecked all, but how do I make my contacts sync with Address book again? At present they will not

What is syncing between them ? If calendars, contacts, safari favourites then are you using the same iCloud account on both devices and have them enabled in Settings > iCloud on both ?
If apps, music, and/or ibooks that you buy on one device are automatically downloading on the other device then do you have automatic downloads enabled for them in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone/iPad ?

How do I send contact information to a car stereo?

I purchased a new Sony Car Stereo with hands free phone capability using Bluetooth To use the preset buttons for contacts the instructions say to send the contact data to the car stereo by operating your cellphone.
I don 't know what to do. How do I do this? I tried making the call, thinking the number would then be stored in the "Preset". WRONG.
Help!

If you are running 10.9, you are in the correct community.
Older article, but it still applies.
Contacts – Print Contact Information

I have my contacts synced with icloud and exchange. I want all of them to be synced via icloud, I have tried turning contacts off and then clicking merge but that doesn't copy all of them over. How do I transfer all contacts onto my phone and then icloud?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you can't do this on a computer, which would be much easier using drag and drop, then you will need to share the contacts with yourself in order to move them to the iCloud account.

Why won't contacts sync with iphone

I'm loosing the will to live and I've spent hours trawling through the huge amount of fixes suggested on various sites but to no avail. I run a macbook pro, OSX10.6.8, Itunes 10.4 and the software on the iphone was updated today. Syncing with iTunes worked fine up until about 3 weeks ago - I don't know what happend but it just stopped. If I delete all the contacts in the mac address book (310) and run a sync nothing changes on the 472 iphone contacts. All the settings appear to be correct in the preferences. If I check the box to stop syncing contacts and delete all 472 contacts on the phone - they all dissapear. When I reset the sync contacts check box and check the "replace all the contacts on this phone during the next sync" box I get all 472 back again. Can anybody offer any help at all please before I slash my wrists!!

Clearly it doesn't work as I imagine! But I still don't understand what you mean. I'm not saying that I don't like Google's instructions,- what makes you say that? I'm saying that I think I've already followed them to the letter. How have I not? What else, exactly, do I need to do? Talk me through an example, please.
"You have added a data conduit between Google and your phone. But you have not put anything IN that conduit, save the data Google already has."
What I want to put into it is the contact data aleady on my phone (and in icloud). Google's instruction seems to say that to put something in the conduit, I just have to open Contacts on the iphone. Clearly that's not correct. So what do I do?
Here's what I'm refering to in Goolge's instructions:
"If you're using iOS 5 or iOS 6, follow these steps to set up contact syncing with Google Contacts:
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account... > Other > Add CardDAV Account.
Enter the following information in the fields:
Server: google.com
User Name: your full Google email address
Password: your Google account password
Tap Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically."
The last sentence seems to me to mean that opening Contacts will "put someting in the conduit".

My ipod will not play on my new car stereo.

My ipod will not play on my new car stereo. It says that the ipod classic 2.0.4 is compatible and mine is 2.0.4 PC. the stereo says to update ipod. is there any way around this?

Have you went to the manufacturer's support site?
Does the manufacturer say the dock works with your model iPod Touch and iOS? Many do not.

TS3581 CAN YOU CONNECT A SHUFFLE (gen4) TO A KENWOOD CAR STEREO USING THE SHUFFLE USB CABLE ?

HELLO TO ALL
ABIGMAC1 HERE! GOOD DAY TO ALL
JUST WONDERING IF ANYONE COULD ANSWER THIS
CAN YOU CONNECT A SHUFFLE (gen4) TO A KENWOOD CAR STEREO USING THE SHUFFLE USB CABLE ?
I CAN USE AN AUX 3.5 TO 3.5 BUT NO WAY TO READ THE LIBRARY. PLEASE HELP ME!
THANK-YOU
ABIGMAC1

Check the documentation for the car audio system for device compatibility. A shuffle may not be compatible.
If the car audio system is able to use a regular USB flash drive connected to the USB port, you should just get an 8GB USB flash drive for $5-10, load it with your "car songs" and leave it connected to the car audio system, instead of constantly connecting and disconnecting an iPod.
If the car audio system has an aux. audio input mini-stereo jack, you can get something like this
http://www.amazon.com/Monster-iCable-Player-Auxiliary-Input/dp/B002AR5XIK
and connect your shuffle's headphones jack to the car audio system. You can then use your shuffle to play through the car audio system.

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i have purchased an iphone 4s and synced it with itunes.

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i purchased an iphone 4s and synced the phone with itunes. When I plug my ipod into my imac, it does not even read or recognize my ipod. What do i do?

Are you using the original cable that came with Nano and not your iPhone's cable? Have you worked through the troubleshooting in this Apple support document?
