would pioneer send me a CD with the origional software for my F500BT? not sure if anyone tried or knows. i dont have a backup and am currently running mine off some fused 2.06 and 3.0 files. but its not perfect, because i can no longer add new languages... it doesnt read anything new.

i need a clean 2.0 or 2.06 backup of F500Bt. thankfully i got my own liscence from the APL2 folder saved. but thats it...

thanks for readin, i hope one of you can help me! pleaaaase

They told me "NO" for my f900bt the f%^*&%&&g 10 dot t's. They said I would have to send in my unit and pay them to fix their fu.

Why should Pioneer fix for free what you messed up. It is your fault. Should have read more before playing around with your system. Everywhere you read it talks about BACKUP first.
