Here is the story, I used to be able to push my home button and activate Siri through the speakers of my 2013 Fusion with MyFord (not MyFord Touch). Recently, an update came out for the Sync system (V4.6), so I updated it and now this function is gone. Has anyone else seen this same issue? Do you have any fix for it? I am curious as it used to be really convenient to have Siri activated through the easy press of a button. Now, it makes it almost impossible to activate or requires more fiddling with my phone. Thanks in advance!

Hello, Randomly, last week, my phone audio stopped coming through my car's speakers and the media player doesn't function at all. Phone calls - when paired with SYNC, the phone rings, but I cannot hear the other person, nor can they hear me. I have to change my input/output to the phone in order to communicate. Although, the screen in the car states the phone is paired and connected via bluetooth. Media player - My music will not play through the bluetooth media device (line in is not selected). Most times, it automatically disconnects my phone when I go to stream music from it. Other times, it shows up with the song title on the car's screen and looks like it is playing, but there's no sound whatsoever. I upgraded my SYNC about a month ago and haven't had any issues since last week. Very frustrated now that I cannot get it to work. Here are some of the troubleshooting steps I've performed and tech. specs.: Master reset the SYNC system Master reset on SYNC Bluetooth system Add/remove the phone from SYNC and Add/remove SYNC from the phone Download the address book when pairing Not downloading the address book when pairing Changing the ringer for the phone on SYNC Performing a network settings reset on phones Performing a factory reset on phones Tried using multiple phones; same results. 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid (latest SYNC update) iPhone 6S PLUS (iOS 9.1) iPhone 6S (iOS 9.0.2) Samsung Galaxy S5 (Kitkat) Any additional help or troubleshooting will be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Tom

So, IOS7 is just around the corner. There is news about what is going to be called "IOS in the car" where an iPhone can comunicate with your car. Looks like it will require anothe upgrade for Ford Sync, but may be down the road. Finally it will all work. I just hope it doesn't require a new car !!!! http://blogs.cars.com/kickingtires/2013/06/apples-ios7-ready-for-the-car.html See link.

Jumping right in. We've known for sometime Bluetooth MAP support was lacking in iOS devices. Looks like iOS 6, per the update info, has "Bluetooth MAP support." Looks like we might be able to text via SYNC soon!-) I'll let you know once i give it all a try. Let me know if you guys have any luck. I'll be trying it on my 09 FEH Happy texting!-)
