iPhone 3.0 Update Breaks "iPod" functionality with the Z
Hello,
Just wanted to inform whomever has an iPhone that if you update to the new 3.0 OS firmware that the next time you connect your iPhone to the peripheral that the Z has in order to listen to music you will get the unpleasant message that the iPhone doesn't recognize the peripheral. I had that surprise today when I got in my car after updating last night, not sure if the same happens with the iPod Touch but i would think it will as it's the same update. If anyone has any input on this please chime in. Thanks |

Works fine for me - same as it was pre 3.0. I bought the griffin adaptor to cure the charging issue, I still get the message telling me this was not made to work with the phone, but it charges and I can access my music fine

I might have to buy the adaptor that you have. I take it the adaptor replaces the factory cable that came with the Z?
So basically the adaptor does both charges and acts as the interface cable? Thanks |

It's this one - Griffin Technology: Charge Converter
It just sits between the factory cable and the iPhone |

Does the update fix the problem with downloading the phone book?

Not sure, haven't tried it yet. Would be nice if it did, but I think the issue was with the Nissan software not working with the iPhone, not the other way round, so an update to the iPhone probably won't make any difference. Happy to be proved wong tho

Is that something they can fix with another update? Or do they refuse to allow that feature?

Edit - further research on this and it's only newer Pioneer head units that have this feature. Last edited by Lloydy; 06-19-2009 at 06:51 PM. |

Now thats stretching it lol. It took me 20 minutes to enter my contacts into the phone book on the Z. You can also just use an old phone and transfer the contacts that way to your Z. |
