I can't play musics from my iphone 5

Hi all,

I was able to listen to musics stored in my iphone 5 via blue tooth in my X1. However, ever since I copied a CD to the hard drive, I am no longer able to play musics from my iphone. The phone stays paired and connected, and it shows that music is playing on the phone, but with no sound through the speaker system in the X1. Anyone experienced the same?

Thank you very much.

Try making a call. Stupid work around, but it seems to clear things up in ours.

go to the BT options for your phone and make sure Music is checked off, i notice this happens when 2 or more phones are connected to the car.

I couldn't play music from my iPhone through Bluetooth once I connected it with a cable to the USB port. Only way that makes it work back again is to delete the iPhone from the device list and re-pair it with the car.

I've had to do the same, several times...

What other glitches are there that you attribute to iDrive?

Make sure you are on the latest version of the software for communication and entertainment.
I think the current version is 01006.

Thanks all. I tried everything and ended up needing to un-pair and re-pair the phones before it works again. And yes, I have two phones paired with the system. Thanks again.
