CamelTowing Posted January 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 I tried another ipod and it still does it. I am using the 80 gig classic (i think thats what its called) I think its an issue with how long the car sits, or something to do with XM and Sirius being connected as well as the ipod. For those of you that its only happening once in a while, any idea how long the car was sitting before that time. I think it happens any time I leave the car sitting more than 12 hours or so. That made me think it was a battery issue with the ipod, but when I take it out of the glovebox, its always fully charged. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Newman Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Perhaps there is a problem with the CD-IU50V or whatever iPod adapter you're using? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CamelTowing Posted January 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Its happening in the two of the pioneer reps cars too in addition to the other guys on here. Thats alot of bad cables if thats the reason Quote Link to post Share on other sites
osubeaver Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 My ipod issue was different than yours but maybe the solution will help someone. My problem was that the ipod(80gb classic) was turning off between tracks. The head unit took this as the ipod being disconnected and switched the AV source to "off" and requiring that I disconnect/reconnect the usb to get my F700 to recognize the ipod again. I made the guess that the head unit was supplying low voltage to the ipod and that when it switched tracks the power demand was enough higher that it choked. So I bought a 2-into-1 usb cable and I now supplement the power to the ipod with a 12V to usb lighter adapter. Result: rock-solid performance from the ipod. Worked for me.

dawgbone Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 What kind of temps are you guys seeing? I only ask as I've come across alot of stuff on the web about IPods and IPhone not fully working when left in the cars in cold temps... Although Apple claims much lower operating temps in their specs, real-world seems to show different... http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=ip ... d+in+cold+ Might have something to do with it???

CamelTowing Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 I'm in CA, car parked in a garage at night so I doubt temps get below 40-50 in the garage/car/glovebox Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looks more like a Pioneer(boot up) issue.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CamelTowing Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Ya, I think its probably an easy fix. Hopefully the local dudes get through to someone that gives a crap and can add it to the next firmware update. Seems silly that it happens in their employees cars and they don't fix it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
