Iphone user here... sync problems daily! actually, it usually just doesn't work daily. I have to re-synch it to my itunes to get it to work.

 

i had a problem at first...but i deleted everything, made sure i had the newest updates (itunes, phone, sync, etc etc) and started over fresh. works great now

 

What kind of problems are you having with the iPhone? I have one also and I had some problems after loading the new OS4 update. I may be able to help.

Sweet truck btw!

 

I've had this problem with phone staying connected since I updated to OS4.
I thought I was crazy and doing something wrong but its nice to know others are having the same problem.
Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't it just depends on how the Iphone sync gods feel that day I guess. I'm so frustrated!!!!

 

I just bought my first Ford a couple days ago. It's a 2010 F150 XLT Supercab. I have an iPhone 4 with the latest 4.0.1 firmware. Tried a couple of time to get it working with Sync, but no luck yet. I'll keep you posted.

 

My challenges were with Blackberry phone. Thread below discusses my process to correct. No problems since.

couple of alleged fixes... good luck

 

You cannot connect any OS4 iPhone to Sync using USB. You CAN stream music via Bluetooth. Ford is reportedly working on a fix but as of now it is not supported. If you have connected an OS4 iPhone and are now having problems using the USB port with any other device (iPod, hard drive, etc) you can pull the fuse in the passenger kick panel to reset Sync. You will lose your settings.

 

Thanks Tap In. I've had my truck for a week today and still haven't taken the time to play with Sync yet. Many of the posts I've read, it sounds like people are plugging their phones into the USB port. I don't think that's the correct way to do it. I have my phone plugged into a Griffin Power Jolt car charger, and I want everything to connect and work through bluetooth. Am I doing it wrong?

 

Apparently I was doing it wrong. I didn't realize only a few certain features worked over bluetooth. I was able to make a call and listen to the playlist on my iPhone 4, but many of the commands weren't available over bluetooth. I'll test more tomorrow.

 

You will have limited functionality with Bluetooth. I only use it to make calls and I use the USB to connect my iPod.

 

Resolved my iPhone issues with Ford Sync that cropped up when I updated the phone's firmware to iOS4. I downloaded and ran Ford's Sycn My iTunes app on my PC, resync'ed the phone with iTunes, now it's able to find my media info again.

 

I have the LG Versa (VX9600) that connects then drops after a short period of time. Then I select phone which reconnects and can disconnect again. once I make a call it will stay connected. Strange! i also have the BB Tour work phone and no issues with a disconnect. go figure.

 

I cant even download the latest updates for Sync...

 

Have you tried changing the phonebook auto download? Are you trying to stream audio?

Most disconnecting issues are related to the PB auto download or some other BT profile (such as streaming audio) vs. the simple hands-free profile.
