I'm new to this and not exactly tech savvy. I have the F900BT for about 2 years in my truck. Always great. Yesterday, out of no where, it started to keep shutting off and on. Lasted about 3 minutes each time. Then it would do it again. I called Pioneer and after waiting on hold for LITERALLY 30 minutes, I was told it's $230 to fix it flat-rate. Told me its a software problem and nothing he could do. Very arrogant dude. Anyway, so here i am. Any help? Pleaseeeeeee I operate on an Mac. I see people post links and I know Apple can be difficult. Thanks to anyone who can help!!

Download 3.0 update and look on the forums on how to update, if you don't feel up to it eBay has sellers who can fix this for you as well

depending on what version you are running, you can also try one of the non 3.0 updates from pioneer, and see if that fixes the corrupt file
