    Default 2012 RT SE5 iPod Compatability Chart?

    Anyone know which iPods are compatible with the sound system? My Nano is NOT. I've got Bluetooth earbuds and a Galaxy 7 that provide music for me. So does the wife, but via iPhone. But now and then I may want to be obnoxious and blast some Five Finger Death Punch at the beach or in a park.

    Default Ipod Compatibilty

    I had an older ipod that didn't work well with 2011RT. One day while my son was downloading music from
    my itunes account we noticed a place to download upgrades. It worked much better after that.

    You mean updating the iOS on the iPod? Mine is kept current and it's a 6th gen Nano. It's supposed to work.

    Believe it or not the best MP3/iPod players is a de-activated iPhone 4's. I pushed it to the limit I have a CB radio GPS, communication system between passenger and driver, satellite XM radio and the iPhone 4 has never failed me yet. The iPhone 4 also worked on 2016. I picked up a few to give me a winter project and I got them loaded with a bunch of MP3 file/playlists. I use them at Spyder rally for trading/selling. I have three left. You can find them on eBay for between approximately $30-$50 but be careful to make sure they're iCloud/activation unlock. I did get burnt on a few. Another nice thing about the iPhone in an emergency you can still use it to call 911. The ones I have can be activated if you're looking to get into a iPhone. The ones I have left is on the Verizon network or the Sprint network. One more thing the old I pod touch 4 works pretty good also.

    You can use an IPhone 6s as long as you have an Apple 30 pin to lightning adapter. It works on mine. If you can find a non Apple adapter that transmits data as well as charges, it should work also. Probably can use any IPhone with the correct adapter.

    Tom,
    Can you PM me with some more info about these phones?
    (Memory capacity, How do you get the songs into them...)
    Also: how much do you want for one?
    Thanks!

    My Nano is a 6th Gen 16GB, but my Spyder says, "MP3 player not supported." Then it'll play music, but no controls from handlebars...only on the Nano itself in the trunk. Then, if I shift, hit a turn signal, etc. it might stop playing.

    Congrats on having excellent taste in music. FFDP, Disturbed, Godsmack and anything else that assaults the ears is great to listen to while riding your Spyder!!

    Most of my riding music is actually Jalapeno Pack, Outlaw Country, Southern Rock with a heavy presence from ZZ Top. But I toss in a contemporary favorite now and then for spice...like The Black Crowes, FFDP, and even Pentatonix.
