- So when I plug my new iphone 5 into my Pioneer AVIC-X920BT Car Radio's USB Port, it charges, but doesn't play music through the radio or control the phone. I don't think it's being recognized as an 'iPod'.
I thought no biggie, I can always use the Bluetooth Audio feature on the radio to play music, just need to pair the new phone like my 4S was....
But the phone fails to pair. The Radio & the Phone see each other, but will not pair.
Please help... as I just drove 75 miles in silence... Grrr!!!
Anyone else having similar issues?

Question - do you have a lot of devices paired/saved? I think I had a similar issue like this w my 4S.
I'll let you know what I find.09-21-2012 04:03 PMLike 0 -
- I haven't tried pairing my iPhone 5 to my X930BT yet, but I was so happy to see that the AVICFEEDS app worked with the new Apple maps on my updated iPhone 4.09-21-2012 05:51 PMLike 0

- I finally got the Bluetooth to work after resetting the settings on the radio to factory defaults.
Still no luck with a direct cable connection though.
Wonder how long it will take pioneer to release a new cable for lightning connector...?09-22-2012 09:44 AMLike 0 -
Time will tell....I've had a tough time just trying to update the software on my AVIC-930BT. Actually gave up on it.09-22-2012 09:58 AMLike 0 - I am remember reading somewhere (I forget where) that the Lightning connector lacked some kind of profile that makes it unable to work over usb to play music in certain car manufacturers such as BMW, etc. Maybe it also affects aftermarket head units also.09-22-2012 10:57 AMLike 0
- I know on my Avhp4200, after the 5.1.1 update I was unable to view videos from a ipod touch. Haven't bothered with the firmware update since I'd rather not uninstall everything and wait for something that may not resolve my issue
