Replying to: hawkmanva (Jul 14, 2008 6:48 am) Apple changed the way they handle charging with the last generation of the nano and rendered some charging devices and cables obsolete. This was discussed on a few iPhone websites.     My '08 G35 charges my old-style video iPod just fine - and plays great of course - but I haven't checked it with the 3G iPhone yet. I did pickup an iPhone a few days ago and can conform what you saw - it says it cannot charge - but hadn't loaded any tunes yet. I will test tomorrow music playing tomorrow.     I would think Infiniti could come out with a new cable that uses the "correct" power-supplying pins. That change would probably fix the not-playing issue since it sounds like the iPhone is stopping the playing when hooked to the now obsolete cable. Whether Infiniti will do this or not remains to be seen.     kc

I did say "no" to the Airplane mode question, and after that it just shows the iPod screen like normal. I selected a song and away it went     kc Replies to this message: jeffwilson (Jul 25, 2008 1:10 pm) jetfn1 (Nov 22, 2009 9:20 pm)

Replying to: shov8 (Jul 17, 2008 1:08 pm) Given the iPhones battery life, I REALLY need to charge it in my car. Does anyone know if Infiniti is coming out with a new cable for it?? Thanks!   Jeff Replies to this message: jetfn1 (Nov 22, 2009 9:20 pm)

Replying to: hawkmanva (Jul 14, 2008 6:48 am) There is a product by scosche (www.scosche.com) under the iphone accessories section that I used in a different car to enable charging of my iphone 3g with an older FM transmitter - I believe it will work for you.   http://www.scosche.com/products/sfID1/210/sfID2/318/productID/1667.   It costs about $30.   -DAB">link title

When i got a new 5th Generation IPOD, I would still be able to control it via the G35's system but it would not charge and a message on the IPOD's LCD warned this. I found out that it is because older IPOD's charge 12v and newer 5volts. So if you IPHONE says 5v on the back, which it might. This is your solution...
