Q: ipod stopped working in my 2013 Honda


When I fist got my car a few months ago my iPod played fine through the usb plug. now all of a sudden it says usb error and Honda says that it's because my iPod isn't up to date. Apple doesn't offer another update to my ipod 5th generation. I don't know what to do now but I think it's ridiculous if I have to purchase a new ipod just to make it work. Please help if possible.

    Hey there ruthadams,

     

    If your iPod is still not playing correctly in your vehicle, I would recommend using the Troubleshooting tips section of the following article to help you isolate if not resolve the issue:

     

    Get help using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with your car stereo

    Disconnect and restart

    If you are experiencing difficulties with the connection between your stereo and device, disconnect the device, and then power cycle the stereo and your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. When the Home screen reappears, reconnect your device. If you cannot power cycle the stereo, turn the car off and then back on to allow the stereo to power off.

    Isolate the issue

    Try to reproduce the issue with an identical or similar accessory, if one is available, or test with a second device.

    For example, if you hear static coming from the left audio channel, try connecting a different device or try connecting to a different stereo or accessory that connects over the same interface (30-pin or Lightning connector, Bluetooth, or headphone jack).

     

    Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    If you have isolated an issue to the device, restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to its factory condition. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue affects only a third-party accessory, contact the accessory manufacturer before restoring your iOS device.
