iPod touch 7th generation and Sync 3
EliB replied to EliB's topic in SYNC 3 Media Players & Technical Assistance
I have a 7th generation iPod Touch which I use with sync 3.4. Some of the Playlists show up as blank on the Ford sync system. The work around that I found is to access the playlist on the actual iPod Touch by touching it on the iPod and for whatever reason once you do that the playlist work fine with the ford sync screen. You only have to do this once and it remembers that the playlist is there indefinitely. Pretty strange.... -
I am currently running sync 3.4 build 21098 on my Lincoln nautilus. I updated the maps fairly recently by usb. Recently an OTA update came via wifi 4U5T-14G422-CAH_1615428946000.TAR.GZ. Seems to have downloaded ok but now is stuck for hours in the installing mode. I have a picture attached. How long should this take? Anything to do? Thank you

That may be a good idea. my ipod is also in the arm rest usb. I think however the ipad having the setting auto lock off, in other words display always on is a bad idea overnight or the iPad battery -

I believe the issue was at the display on the iPod was staying on. I just turned on the display auto lock to 1 minute. We'll see if that has an effect but I believe the iPod was simply draining because it's screen was on -
Two observations. While using the USB collection in the console next to the seat on my 2020 Lincoln nautilus In order to see all my playlists contents, initially I had to manually go into the playlists on the actual iPod. Now works great. Otherwise Sync 3 reported some lists empty Occasionally I am finding my iPods battery dead and it has to recharge while driving. Any idea why the battery would drain when the car is off? thank you Eli

iPod touch 5th generation and sync 3

My 7th generation iPod Touch arrived. Works great with sync 3.4 Was not a cable issue: 5th generation simply will not display artwork or titles while playing but works fine with Bluetooth. Must be something about the operating system. original Apple cable made no difference. There should be a site informing people of compatibility of the different Generations of MP3 players -

I just tried my friends iPhone via the same lightning cable. Did not let it start Apple carplay. Music played fine. I suspect it's the old iPod -

Tried 4 different cables. Think one is an official apple cable but will borrow another from someone later this week I suspect this to be a software glitch with sync that will be updated in the future -

Hi That I don't believe I am using a genuine apple cord, although I just tried two others, including an Anker cord and an amazon basics cord. Same deal. They work fine in my other car. The music plays great: I can browse the iPod but I don't see the artist/song n the 8" display or in the dash display. I will take a picture when I have a moment -
Hi. First time on this forum I have a 2020 Lincoln nautilus and I plugged in my iPod touch via USB. I can see me my play lists but when playing a song i don't see any of the song/artist data. Rather just a generic play button. No individual song data appears. I tried various cable and various USB ports in the vehicle. No luck If I connect the iPod via Bluetooth, it works great: I see the songs with full data including, name album and artwork. Any ideas how to get it to work properly with USB rather than bluetooth? thanks in advance. E
