Ipod Touch Doesn't Work

Hey guys,

I wanted to know if anyone else here is having problem with their 2g or 3g i-touch. I can connect mines but it won't load onto the car, I have to pick it from the ipod to play songs. I have an 08 m3 by the way.

Thanks

Thomas

I assume you have 6FL, iPod/USB support, but perhaps you have the wrong cable. There have been several cables and it could be that the iPod Touch may require a newer one.

Do you know where I can get this cable? I have the Y cable i believe one with the usb and the audio jack. It works fine when I plug in my ipod, but It won't load my touch correctly.

Your BMW dealer should have one. My wife's iPod Touch works just fine with her 2009 128i.

I didn't think you could upload music from the iPod to the HDD. I thought you could only upload from a nerd stick.

I don't know if this will help but my iphone 3g had the version 2.2 software and it did not play any music in the car. However after the v3.1.2 update it will play music now so i say update the software if you can.

Well the problem is that I have the newest version for the i-touch already, I can play it off the i-touch just fine, but it wont show up on my screen its just blank. I also can only play one song at a time, kind of annoying. I'm trying many things to fix this, so far dealer does not have a cable that can fix it, asked them, and they tried. Any ideas guys?
