I just had the F700bt installed. I plugged in the Itouch and my albums and artcovers showed up on the F700bt. However, I cant hear anything...when it plays. It shows that the song is playing...however there is no sound. CD, radio and Nav work fine..

Can anyone help with this? or have any ideas?

You need to go to Settings -> A/V Settings and change AV1 to iPod (it's currently off).

 

Just so you know, DO NOT upgrade your Touch (not iTouch, just Touch) to the 2.0 Firmware. If you do, it will no longer work with the F-Series.

I tried your suggestion - changed IPOD to AV1.... its still doing the same thing. Your right, it was turned off before, but now that AV1 is turned on, its still not giving out any sound....its playing...but no sound.

 

I am using the cable that came with the iTouch... will the F700bt not work with iTouch if Im using the Aplle cable that came with the iTouch?

 

Pls help!

You need to be using the Pioneer ipod cable.

The USB cable only passes data, you need to use the Pioneer cable or the Apple A/V kit that includes composite connections for audio and video.

with the cables from Pioneer. Will iTouch be able to pass video on the F700bt. I've read many posts that the F700 does not allow video.

Don't know, I don't have a Touch, I have an iPhone. But the two are similar, so I would think a TTouch would work the same way, and I get video from my iPhone.

anyone know of any update that will fix the iPod Touch 2.0 Firmware issue? I already had the update done on my iPod and don't want to back it down just to get it to work with the F700. I need the apps :) But, I do want it to work correctly with the radio. Strange that it doesn't even let me charge the iPod or anything. I think I can get sound to come out via the AV input but, that's it. No video with sound. :(

The only way to make it work correctly with the radio is to roll back the firmware.

Yeah, but either one of them will issue an update to get to work again. At some point.

I wouldn't be too sure of that. When the Ipod classic stopped working with the D3, neither Pioneer or Apple did anything about it, and as of now it still doesn't work.

Are you serious? That's crazy. How can they say they are iPod compatible and not be iPod compatible?

 

Making a phone call. :evil:

They WERE ipod compatible, when they were made/released.

 

Look at the parts highlighted in red:

If you're going to go through the trouble to hack the thing... you might as well just roll back the firmware.

Posted Jul 30, 2008 · 22:50 UTC#16

True! I guess I'm saying...or wondering if theres a way to hack the iTouch so that its still compatile wih 2.0 update...AND he f700 at the same time...

This incompatibility alone is making me seriously consider returning this device . . . nothing but problems for such an expensive device is completely unacceptable to me.
