  1. I turned off encryption and tried it. Same result as before.
  2. So do we have luck in changing any of the voices?
  3. I have tried that too. Unresponsive in 2D or 3D. Does the sound but no action is taken. And that was tried 20 minutes into a drive so everything should have been loaded up.
  4. Dumb question, when on the map screen, my volume control doesn't control my zoom. It is controlling my ipod, so songs change and turning it controls my volume. So how do you use it for zooming in?
  5. How about using MSN Direct? That is what I use.
  6. I was going to make my own POI for my city for the Red Light Cameras, but a few in the area only list their location as: Camera, Bridgeport & San Francisco, Lakewood, WA, But to put an address there moves the camera 1000ft north which is a different intersection. So if I had coordinates for that intersection, then it would accurate on my AVIC. Avic Feeds require Longitute and Latitude on each location.
  7. Does anyone know of a program or website that will change crossroad locations into longitude and latitude coordinates? Goggle Earth does it, but the coordinates in the crosshair are way off and the POI tells you the camera is in a different place. I know you can cross over addresses, but most red light cameras don't have an address and if you use the closest address, it can put you off by up to a 1000 ft on the navigational map. Thanks.
  8. I kind of wished that did that on the F Series. I rented a Chrysler Aspen and the built in navigation would only come out the front driver side speaker, leaving the music and such normal out of the other speaks so the guidance didn't bother your passengers.
  9. Does the US version have that ability? I thought the EU version only did that... But if we could that would be very awesome.
  10. Yes Bullshit. When I was playing with Navigate Feeds it did the same thing. You have to use Excel to open the CSV and then split them up. Take the first 300 and save them as file1.csv (or whatever) and then take the next 300 and save them as file2.csv, etc. I dont think its so bad if you had information regarding the POI location in the CSV file. For instance the Speed Trap one, if they had the location in the description you could make a file for the areas around, for instance, I am in Seattle, so I would have a Seattle.csv, Tacoma.csv, Everett.csv, etc, all with just the info from th
  11. I haven't tried it where it alerts me. That is the next step. Its stays on the SD card, so if you remove the card it goes as well.
  12. Has anyone downloaded the European version and played around with it? I did, and when I put a POI list on it and convert it, it gives me an error, but when I put it on an SD card and put it in my F900BT and seach the POI list, BOOM the list is there. So even though is not the US version, it appears to work with my unit. Pretty cool. Now I have Red Light Camera locations on my F900BT.
  13. Yeah, thats pretty generic. When I have emailed Pioneer or called them they would only give you a generic answer. That is almost equal to the one I sent about a week ago.
  14. I have the 8830 as well. Same problems, doesn't matter if they are in categories or not, unit will connect and disconnect. I have never been able to get it to work right, so basically I can't use the bluetooth. If anyone has any new tricks, let me know.
  15. Mine dials a 425 number also, I live in Tacoma and were 253, but when I call my voicemail it dials a 425 number too. 425 is the eastside of Seattle.
  16. Anyone feel like creating some Toyota ones? I flunked Art.

    iPod Wire

    The RCA connectors attach to the RCA connectors on the pigtail and the USB connector connects to the USB cable, that pigtain comes out of the back of the unit. I did not have the iPod cable when I got the unit, I just kept the RCA and the USB connectors in reach below the radio so that installation would be a breeze.
  18. Try putting the spelling "Acoostic Worship" and see if it works. My is picky too and I get that all the time so I have to be creative. If you have any Depeche Mode, try and get it to play that, you have to say "De Peachy Mode" or for Erasure say "Your A Sure" and she'll get it. Its mainly phonetic I am finding.
  19. Mine works... not to well, but well enough. It has a hard time with artists like ABC, Elton John, Tom Petty and a few others. I have a catalogue of about 19000 songs, so that may be the problem. The big one is Duran Duran, she just doesn't seem to like them and when you say Play Artist Duran Duran she likes to play Expose in its place. I have gotten creative and I am using the genre field to put in Artist and Song Title so I can say "Play Genre Elton John Yellow Brick Road" and she'll play it. I am finding you need to do some creative spelling to make it work right in cases. For i
  20. On my D3, I had the iPod and the Changer. The changer wasn't really used unless my girlfriend or friends brought their CDs along, then I would load them up on the changer. I wish the F series did have the changer option for that reason.
  21. I like the fixes that have corrected issues on the firmware, but I have an issue that is now there that wasn't before. If I am on my iPod screen and I want to change the artist using the voice command, 50% of the time it shuts down the iPod and mutes it. To fix it I have to reset the unit, reselect iPod on the AV1 setting and then it works. Anyone else have this problem?
  22. Mine works great. I switched back to Samantha and its good on my 900BT.
  23. My guess is that you will have to pay for an SD or CD upgrade, just like microsoft does with its updates. As always downloading would be free, just like microsoft. Can you image the price for SD and postage? I dont' think Pioneer would just give them away. But I could also be very wrong about them.
  24. Lets hope its by the end of the month...
