I believe they recommend doing a firmware update on the iPod, but it would be worth doing a search there.

To get to the menu you need to select disc #6 , ok so far, and I can scroll in a menu, but I am having trouble selecting a menu item, manual says use the seek forward key (>>) which I believe is 5 on the keypad, but it doesn't seem to work??

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, Got this installed today. Works with my wife's nano fine, problematic with my ipod photo, so I am going to do a restore on my ipod and see if that helps. But anybody out there have success with the Gateway 500 menu system? To get to the menu you need to select disc #6 , ok so far, and I can scroll in a menu, but I am having trouble selecting a menu item, manual says use the seek forward key (>>) which I believe is 5 on the keypad, but it doesn't seem to work?? Any ideas? Donal

POST 2Original post

Interesting....I have the Icelink and CDC-4 sat on my desk waiting for me to fit them to my 2003 with CDR-23. Maybe I should wait unit you iron out the problems you appear to have before proceeding or just sell them and go for some modern 2 din sat nav system with built in iPod link?

POST 3Original post

David - there are some good install instructions for the Denison here: http://www.radarrack.com/resources/dension.pdf Donal - There is quite a bit on renntech.org about the issues with the Gateway 500. I believe they recommend doing a firmware update on the iPod, but it would be worth doing a search there.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Richard - Thanks for information. Turned out when I did a full restore of my ipod, everything started to work. Note my ipod was at the latest revision. So if your ipod won't content to the Gateway 500 and it is a supported model, try a full restore. This will wipe your ipod clean, if you are like me with 90% full 40GB ipod, it will take a couple of hours to reload it. Make sure, your ipod is connected to a power source when you do the reload. David - The sound from the system is great. It has a reasonable nice interface to the PCM, but the user interface is somewhat clunky. I don't know whether this is down to the Dension programmers or limitations of the MOST system. You use the search buttons as your main navigation aid. It may take some time to get use to it, but it is great to have access to all my music on the road now.
