Rodz Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 So, applied the firmware update. Everything went to plan. Connected phone, CarPlay logo showed up, awesome. Headunit shows "Attempting to connect to Apple CarPlay", excitement palpable. Then, nothing. No new source icon on the home screen. Can't find anything anywhere. The "Smartphone setup" settings page shows CarPlay as an connection option so I know the firmware installed correctly. Any ideas guys?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drswitters Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Just a guess, but I recall there being an issue previously with iPhone's requiring USB1 for input. Are you using the other USB input on the back by chance? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ericvic Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Do you have at least ios 7.1 on your phone? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mapotter99 Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Just a thought, try restarting your car and fully rebooting your iPhone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rodz Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Do you have at least ios 7.1 on your phone? Yup, iOS 8.0.2 Just a thought, try restarting your car and fully rebooting your iPhone. That's not a bad shout. Back in the office now so will try that when I leave. Keep the ideas coming though guys! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
