iOS 14.5 CarPlay not working

SOLVED!

OK, here's what worked for me after 2 days of trying everything. First, you have to go into settings/general/CarPlay/choose the car and forget it. Then come out to the car, plug in to the USB port and then turn off the entertainment system (my car was running at the time), and while still plugged in, do a hard reset on the phone. Don't just turn it off. Hold the two buttons on your model that cause the phone to forcibly shut down. This seems to be the only way to clear whatever it is that's messing Siri up. Then when you 1) turn the radio back on, and then 2) turn the iPhone back on, Siri should work fine. This was driving me crazy for 2 days. Apple should really anticipate this and put something out about it.

Turn your Vehicle on > On your vehicle's media screen select the "Projection" App > A consent menu will pop up, select "Continue" > Your problem is resolved.

I had this issue, researched it, and tried all the recommended solutions and nothing worked. The other day when I started my vehicle I thought the typical warning message popped up regarding "keeping eyes on the road " and selected what I thought was the "OK" button on the left and continued on. Well, that message wasn't the typical warning message, it was the "Device Projection Privacy Consent" form and I had unknowingly selected "Disable"... which is also the button on the left.

Hope this helps someone out there. If not, good luck.

i called Apple. They told me these steps

1. turn off your bluetooth and wifi
2. put your phone on Airplane mode
3. connect your iphone to your radio using cable only
4. play some music
5. turn off airplane mode
6. repeat these steps one more time.

now it is working normally. I hope it helps

By the way, my car is Porsche 992

This worked for me as well. I have a 2020 Toyota Camry Hybrid and I held the power button to force a reset of the radio and while the radio was rebooting I did a hard reset of the iPhone. Hope this helps.

Here's what I discovered and tried. The issue is Siri, not CarPlay. Try using Siri away from your car, and you should see the same issues.

Again, here's what I did - I'm not promising it will work for you.

Change Siri Voice

Turn off Siri in phone settings

Hard reset iPhone

Turn Siri back on

It has been 18 hours and the "fix" is still working. Maybe we will see a true fix in the next IOS update.

I had this issue too, tried all the tricks listed here none worked. Here is what I did and it eliminated the issue.

1) log onto itunes make sure it is updated

2) You will notice none of your apple music is on itunes.

3) Turn off sync on the phone, this is scary - all music will disappear.

4) while phone is connected to itunes click on "account" this opens the cloud based Apple music account.

5) Go through each playlist or download - upper right corner click the 3 dots ... download should appear. As it ACTUALLY downloads all the clouds next to each song will go away. Now the music is actually on the phone

Once all is downloaded, sync in itunes. to verify check the phone under General - iphone storage. If the music downloaded media will appear in the memory use bar. Try this also before you start, there will be very little there if this is your problem and significantly more once you download the full song.

Bottom line, download as much as you want on the phone using wifi but you must go back and really download on itunes

another apple FUBAR.

Hope it help, good luck

It seems that "downloading" on the phone is not really on the phone, it is to the apple music cloud. Using it with carplay and cellular off ( racked up 7 GB data with it on) the phone is trying to get to the cloud to select your song. it may play a few seconds of a cache on the phone and cut out because the cloud connection is not working.

Once I did this the issue went away and carplay was stable, all functions worked just fine.

Was able to fix mine on my Durango by holding the power button to the radio until it reset. Work fine right after that.

I had the same problem & I live by Apple CarPlay. I went to Verizon to get a new phone, but they were out. In a last-ditch attempt, I did a complete factory wipe & restored my phone from a backup & it's working perfectly! I know it's a pain to do, but it worked for me

So I got CarPlay working after multiple reboots of phone (had to "forget" the vehicle in CarPlay), but like others can't get texts to read - even Maps directions is hit or miss.

2016 golf R had to hold down the speech button to finally get it to recognize and connect. 14.5 is a total train wreck.

Only thing that worked was a hard restart

Try updating to 14.6. Seems to have solved my problems.

Traveling yesterday from a distant location where I had used WiFi, I had Car Play running (USB) when I pulled out of the driveway. Very quickly, probably as I progressed away from WiFi range, Car Play cut out and complained that there was no Internet. At my next stop I checked my iPhone: Cellular was OFF. I had not turned it off. Turning it back on cured the problem. (Aside:Yes,IknowthatCarPlayiswithoutaspacebetween"Car"and"Play,"butsuchbrandingbyAppleandothersthrowsawrenchinto

The fix from sakwut didn’t work for me but the fix from crumirid787 did partially work.

I reset the car radio (by holding down the volume button for 10 seconds) and restarted my iPhone SE 2020.

I can use Siri again and Siri is no longer cut off after a few syllables.

HOWEVER, I say partially worked because after I did this, I sent myself several texts.

NONE came up on the CarPlay screen. When I ask Siri to play the last text message, it played a message from before the car radio/iphone reset. It no longer recognizes new text messages. What a pain! I hope this is fixed in the next phone iOS update really soon. I guess a partial fix is better than nothing, but remember, THIS USED TO WORK!
