I hooked every thing up and I don't see the ipod option on the screen. Did I miss something.

Do you see EXT as one of the sources? When you plug in the ipod does it say Pioneer on the screen of the ipod?

Its does say anything on the ipod just the song . The ext buttons dimmed meaning I can't push them.

Are you using the pioneer ipod adapter? If you are, check the fuse in the yellow wire. Make sure the black wire is grounded. Also make sure the ipbus cable is plugged into the black port on the interface. May seem dumb, but also make sure the cable is making solid contact to the dock connector of the ipod.

YOur pod should work with that the, I'd say either something is not connected properly or something is wrong with the ipod interface.

My 30gig ipod worked without updating. Take it back to your circuit city guy and tell him he installed it wrong.
