Just got a new 16 GB Nano. Plugged it in my D3 and the screen on the Nano flashed a message saying that this accessory is not recognized and will not charge the iPod!!!!
Everything plays back just fine (even with coverflow turned on)...but it WILL. NOT. CHARGE.!
Any ideas/recommendations?
Is Pioneer going to have to make a new cable?
Is Apple the devil incarnate?
Why the hell would they change something so stupid in every new generation? WTF?
Pioneer is not going to update/make new hardware for a discontinued product, especially if it's because it doesn't work correctly with something that wasn't even in existence when it was produced.
When the d3 was made all ipods supported 12v firewire charging. So thats what pioneer made the cable charge using the 12v firewire leads since there is no conversion needed. New ipods/iphones only support usb charging now so there is your problem. People are apparently making adapters, and i know kensington has a passthrough that charges via a usb connector.

Uhhhhh...what?
iPods at that time had all switched to USB charging. And Apple changed whatever lead it was using to charge the newest iPods...for some stupid reason.

They still supported firewire charging (not syncing) which is what changed, new ipods and iphone 3g do not support firewire charging.
My iphone charges sometimes..
I think 2/5 time it will charge..

But the lead was the same for both...now that changed? Another pointless change to keep you buying new crap.
