Frigging Ipod wont work in the car........

JustBeJustBe Member Posts: 495

My friend just bought a Ipod for his car and I screwed at him cause Ipods are shit compared to other media players. Anyways when he plugs it into the car stereo cause it's got one of them inbuilt things it takes over the Ipod and doesn't let you use the ipod as a control but you have to use the stereo controls which is naff.



However it'll only play two songs from the Ipod.........

 

How do we fix this?

    It's going to take a very sophisticated tool called a sledge hammer to fix your problem.  The heavier the better.

    Follow the following steps:

    1.  Place Ipod on the sidewalk or something very solid.

    2.  Grab your Sledge Hammer and pummel the crap out of it.

    3.  Don't buy an Ipod ever again.

    No required quests! And if I decide I want to be an assassin-cartographer-dancer-pastry chef who lives only to stalk and kill interior decorators, then that's who I want to be, even if it takes me four years to max all the skills and everyone else thinks I'm freaking nuts. -Madimorga-

    that works, but that'd be wasting your money, I once stared at my comp when it was broken, and after about an hour, it was working better than before.

    1. STARE AT IT

    2. STARE AT IT MORE

    3. KICK IT

    4. DESTROY IT

    5. it's fixed!

    I'm quite confused as to the difference of me hitting it with a sledge hammer and you kicking/destroying it.  Wouldn't we just arrive at the same point?

    it's an apple product, so you're probably just not cool enough to work it.

    Find out what format those 2 songs are in.  Maybe it will only play the songs in certain formats? I dunno.

    Mine works great... But its after market and a $700 Player in it ;p

    If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude; greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
    —Samuel Adams

    I have had so many problems with my mp3 player (not Ipod) that I think the government of a 3rd world country manufactured it.

     

     

    It is just barely above broken today.
