Yes. You need to use the Pioneer cable, or the equivalent Apple or 3rd party cable with the AV connections in addition to USB. You ALSO need to set the AV1 input to iPod.

I changed the Av1 to ipod and still nothing. I am just using one of those white cables you use to hook your ipod to your pc. SO your saying that wont work. I need the pioneer or equal one with the usb/ ipod connector and av cables?

Yes. That is what I'm saying.

lol. Thanks Garypen for the fast answer. I ordered the other cable. I knew I needed it just firgured I would try the other.

I am having a problem with the 2nd gen ipod touch with the f700bt. I have the pioneer ipod cable with rca on one end and an ipod and usb hookup on the other. Problem is that when I plug the ipod touch into the ipod connector nothing happens at all. The ipod does not even register there is anything plugged in. Any thoughts?

Are you sure you're hooking ALL the connectors up correctly?

Dock connector to ipod,

USB connector from ipod to AVIC USB

RCA connector from ipod to AVIC RCA Inputs?
