Hi, when i disconnect my iPod from the connector provided, my radio reads "CD Open". Is that normal?

When you set the radio back to FM or Disc !,2 etc. it should play what you've set it on.

Good question,restarting will clean your iPod off, I can't answer the another question

Yes I have had the same problem. I think that it has to do with the AUX music device it's hooked up to, phone, iPod etc.... I haven't had it do that when I've used the built in radio. I believe if you go into the volume control of the device your using there should be a setting for that. Hope that helps&#128522;

Are you "hot swapping" the iPod when you have the problem? (In other words, are you unplugging the iPod with the Pioneer receiver still turned on?)

I put my ipod on shuffle and just hit next and it doesn't play the next song in order. You can still hit next when the head unit is in ipod control mode, so there's really no reason to put it in head unit control mode

Could be: any part of the power cord may have been dislodged, dead battery charge if you're trying to use it without the power cable, or perhaps (this happened to me a few times when I first got it) the ipod didn't respond to the speaker for some unknown reason. After tinkering with it for a few minutes I got it to work again and it hasn't happened since. Or also you may have gotten a lemon. Hope you get it figured out because it is a decent piece of hardware.

It's a bit counterintuitive. The unit is at a different location so I am recalling from memory. When you connect the power cord there will be a small red light. You need to press the right button to turn off that light. When you do, then press the "source" or "mode" button. It will move through the various modes like FM, Aux, CD and bt (for blue tooth). Stop when you get to CD. Then play the CD. Hope this helps.

I have never used it. I plug in my IPod to the aux jacks, so I have no need for the cd, sorry.

This is news to me. I bought mine a year ago. Still have no issues. I use the radio and the CD player most of the time.

My iPod shuffle is no longer working. I contacted the manufacturer but to no avail. I wouldn't spend $ on another!

Yes. With the iPod adapter plugged in to the "CD Changer" port, the CD button on the front of the stereo toggles between the regular CD player and the CD changer which is your iPod. The forward and reverse track buttons also work to skip forward and back in the playlist on the iPod. It works very well. I was able to get the cord plugged in without taking the dash apart by having my daughter ( small hands ) reach through the glove box over behind the stereo and find the socket. I could touch it, but it took her smaller hand to actually get it plugged in.

Mine always restarts the last song played before unplugging. There must be an internal charge that holds the memory. I have not figured out how to change to "shuffle" mode. The display shows different modes available. I don't have enough buttons on the unit or remote to access modes unless there is a secret button press combination needed. If anyone finds a way to change to shuffle I would like to know.

There's a switch on the right side of the player that allows you to switch between cd & radio. If the button doesn't work then your player is broken.

Sounds like a connection problem if it works some times and not others. I only have a iPod CLASSIC and have never had any problems. Maybe a visit to the Apple Store. Sorry not much help. Regards,Barry

Hi Sandra,If i understood correctly...you do not have in your radio a hole to stick in the auxiliary wire to listen to music. If that is the case i has same issue... This device plugs in to your car cigarette lighter outlet and that is it! You can listen to your iphone music! There is a auxiliary hole in the transmitter cup, and it comes with auxiliary cord to plug your phone into it.Since you and i had common problem, and this is the only device i found that doesnt break and has auxiliary outlet!I strongly recommend getting it. I had mine for almost 4 months and this is the best thing ever! Hi Sandra,If i understood correctly...you do not have in your radio a hole to stick in the auxiliary wire to listen to music.

I've unplugged it from time to time (really just to move it) and haven't had to reset it up. Since I've written the review, I have seen some AirPlay disconnects (even with setting a static IP address). I know that setting a static IP is the way to go, but again have had a couple interruptions of music.

What "pin"? If you're using an extension 5mm wire plugged into the same jack on your iPod that the headphones plug into, that won't charge your iPod. No charging is capable via that port on the iPod. If you have your iPod plugged into the connection on the top of the radio via the port on the bottom of your iPod and it isn't charging but you have sound playing through the radio, then something could be wrong with either your iPod or the iHome radio. Try another iPod or iPhone if you have one. If the other device charges and plays fine, then the issue is with your iPod 4. If the other device has the same issue, then something may be wrong with the iHome radio. Also insure that your iPod is seated correctly, all the way down on the connector. There may be a soft "click" when it is seated properly. Hope this helps.
