That totally helped! Thanks. I did a hard reset of the Pioneer but no changes, I'm so used to the Pioneer having minor 'tantrums' here and there with its sometimes quirky behavior I just assumed the issue had to be with the Pioneer! Doing a hard reset of the iPod solved it - guess the Pioneer and the Apple had an argument and this time the Apple didn't want to talk.

If anyone has any info on this, I'd also be interested. I have an iPod Nano 5G and F700BT. I did the 2.0 Update, everything has been fine, no issues until Wednesday 11/5/08. My iPod isn't recognized anymore. What I've done so far - 1.) I've unplugged and replugged the control cable - the iPod responds accordingly but the Pioneer doesn't do anything. (done this many times) 2.) I've checked the A/V Input 1 setting on the Pioneer, made sure it's on Ipod 3.) Reset the Pioneer. (lost all my presets, but still no iPod). So far, I can't get the iPod to be recognized. I've had no issue

I've tried a couple of iPods - both using the same data set from the same iTunes account. (These are both regular old-fashioned iPods). Unit: F700BT IPOD 1: 5th Gen iPod AVIC Display Quality: Jagged IPOD 2: 2nd Gen iPod Nano AVIC Display Quality: More Jagged (than IPOD 1) I'm not sure how others are getting such a clear display. Cover Flow in iTunes displays crystal clear for the artwork graphics as well as the iPod displays themselves, but the display on AVIC is all jagged, can't quite figure this one out yet.
