Pioneer 7900ub/6900ub + new Nano
I just bought a Pioneer 7900ub (6900ub in the US) and an iPod Nano 8Gb 3g, the purpose was to connect the iPod directly to the Pioneer using the USB connection is provides, it does support iPods connecting directly via USB and the radio is farly new (few months in the market). The thing is, of 20 times i connect the nano to the HU only 1 time works, the other 19 times the Radio just keeps trying to search for the iPod and the iPod just stands there with the "Connected to an acessory" message, the other 1 time it displays the Pioneer logo as it should and i can use the iPod through the headunit to its full potential. My question is, is there a compatibility issue with this Radio + new Nano or i have a bad Radio and/or a bad iPod??
Please help me, i just spent 500+++ US$ on this "kit" and its driving me nuts... :s

Update: I think i found a workaround for my issue. If i start the HU, select Source as USB and put a song playing on the Nano it works almost everytime. Any1 else seen something like this with other Head Units?! Its like the Pioneer HU doesn't detect the Nano if it's not playing Music...

I believe that is your problem your ipod needs to show pioneer and you can not use the usb ipod cable use the pioneer CD-IU50
