    iPhone and Ford problems!

    Hey peeps,

    Just got my first car finally after waiting for a while - and I'm having problems.

    I got a new 09 focus titanium, with the bluetooth and conectivity pack on it - I was told by ford that the iPhone should support it no problem, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

    Anyone else had issues, or heard of them on the Ford connection?

    Thanks

    Re: iPhone and Ford problems!

    The iPhone is very specific about what bluetooth devices it connects too. You didn't say which iPhone you have. It used to be only certain premium Apple headsets it worked with.

    i've got a 3g iphone which has been jailbreaked. The bluetooth works no problem at all, its the usb connection to the stereo which is supposed to sync to the sony headunit.

    the sync works, but when i turn the volume up - it makes a quiet clicking noise and thats about it.

    Try updating to the 3.0 software - apparently apple did some weird implementation of bluetooth (possible to try and allow only apple accessories) prior to 3.0

    scroll down to the 7th or 8th paragraph of the artical
