Hello all

I just bought the 900bt and I love it but im having to key issues. First when connecting my iphone 3g (with 3.0 beta firmware) i can see the songs playing, the album covers, playlist, etc but i get no sound! I repeat the i see the songs actually playing. Secondly i was wondering how to play music via bluetooth either with my iphone or with another bluetooth device. Lastly, i have music on a flash drive but the unit doesnt read it...if anyone can help me out i'd really appreciate it thanks!

1. Did you set the AV Source to iPod?

2. You can not stream music over bluetooth to the AVIC.

3. Is the flash drive FAT32? It's probably NTFS, which won't work.

I've heard the 3.0 beta has bugs regarding this issues.

are you using just an USB cable or a compsite AV with USB cable?b if its not the latter then there is your problem

i repete, the USB cable that comes with the Ipod will not work

USB for control, AV for audio and video

Did you also hook up the RCA jacks on the cable to the rear of the AVIC? you need those for audio.

USB = ipod control

RCA jacks = Audio and Video

You also need to change AV1 to ipod.

And no, it will not interface with Bluetooth for audio in or out.

IT WORKS!!! turns out i have to have the usb and the AV connections all at the sametime. Thank u all for your help!

Now i need to know where i could find a remote for the unit...any suggestions???

there is no IR sensor on the front of it, so there is no remote that will work except for wired marine remotes
