I have a 2008 G37's

I have intermittent problems with both my 160 gig classic and 60 gig photo, where in the middle of playing songs, the display will read "Ipod not connected"

I know it is not the connection, as it is secure

Most times it will "reappear" after a second or two, but sometimes it takes long

Ant advice is appreciated

Do you keep your Ipod on lock or unlock. If you put your Ipod on lock it will have trouble reading it and playing it.

Your not alone, some Ipods do not work in our cars. I 3G iphone does not work but when I had a 2G iphone it did work. The Ipod hookup is a little wacky.

I have an ipod touch and this also happens from time to time. I just shut the car and start it again and it works fine.

I get a different reaction. My car doesnt pick up on my 30gb photo iPod for about a min. I start the car and have the XM radio on and song is playing. Then after about a min the radio picks up on the iPod and switches from XM to iPod even when I dont want it to.

Any one else have this? Maybe I have my iPod locked and it takes a little for the car to pick up on it, I will have to check.

I have the same issue with my iPod Touch second gen. But it tends to happen when I have my Scoche Passport attached. Unfortunately, it's the only way to keep the iPod charged, but what's the point when I have to fiddle with the adapter just to keep it connected?

Same here with my 3gs phone it says iPod is not connected but on the phone it says it is, then I dissconect and reconect and and it works or so
etimes it goes out, lame.

What gen is your 160 GB iPod classic? I've been using a 7th Gen one and it works flawlessly.

Whatever gen the original 160 was

I also have 60 gig photo, same issue, it isn't the Pod

FWiW I took delivery of a 2010 Maxima last night, (wife's daily driver) and was playing with it's USB to Ipod interface - much smoother and more responsive, AND it displays cover art

I seem to remember posts many months back that indicated a new cable was needed for the G, but I didn't receive an answer / update if these "Ipod Connected" problems were fixed by this

i can't tell you how excited I am. just got a used 30GB 5th gen (i think) today for $70. no more connection problems and it's charging without the griffin adapter piece. and it shuts off on it's own when the car goes off.

my iphone had a lot of problems with the connection. this will sit in the console. so happy.

I just have a nano connected, it does that but only when it is running low on battery. So I just take it out of the arm rest that night charge it up overnight and it works perfect until the battery starts dying again.
