I am having trouble with my sisters mini and the ipod connection!!!
Having spoke with the company i bought the dension ice link from, they told me to update the operating software on the ipod. You can download the Apple iPod updater
http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
Step 1:
Scroll to the bottom of the page and enter your details along with the operating system your computer uses. Then click the "Download iPod Software Update" Button.
Step 2:
Follow the on-screen instructions to install the updater application to your computer.
Step 3:
Run the iPod updater application and s elect "update". Once your iPod has been updated we recommend restoring the factory settings to your iPod by clicking the "restore" button.
Your iPod is now updated. Connect it to your ice>Link Plus and test for correct operation.
FURTHER CHECKS...
If you are still experiencing problems perform a cold reset on the ice>Link by disconnecting it for 15 mins then re-connecting. Next you will need to reset the ice>Link Plus software if the problem persists.
UPDATING Your ice>Link Plus Car Kit Software:
This is achieved by uploading a file to your iPod, this then passes the data to your ice>Link Plus car kit once they are connected together. Read on for details...
To update the software on your Dension ice>Link Plus click the following link or copy & paste it into your browser:
http://install.dension.com/
Step 1:
Click the ice>Link Plus image to enter the ice>Link Plus re-configurator.
Step 2:
Follow the on-screen instructions to download the specific configuration file for your iPod. (Remember to "right button>save" on the config file you require).
Step 3:
Upload the saved config file to your iPod and run it. Select the configuration file in (Browse/Genre/_Config/Menu/Car Interface/CarIf_xxx.mp3). During playback, insert your iPod into the cradle or connect the dock cable depending upon set-up.
As above when the ice>Link Plus has been updated perform another cold reset on the ice>Link Plus by disconnecting it for 15 mins then re-connecting.
Please Note: If you are using a Sony ice>Link Plus with a CD adapter, you will need to download the Sony config file.
i shall be trying this today once i have warmed up from fitting the link to the car
Hope this helps
