  1. Having trouble updating Sync

    IIRC the times I noticed it were when I'd swap phones. So my wife would drive one day, then I'd jump in the next and it'd hook to my phone instead and the pop the pop-up. Do you use CarPlay? Might be because that disables the Bluetooth connection, or some timing thing. I don't recall seeing this...
  2. Adding a aux audio port

    Put everything on a thumb drive. If it’s FLAC you wouldn’t want to pump it over Bluetooth anyway as you’re degrading the quality from the get go. If you want the best quality go FLAC on USB and call it a day.
  3. Having trouble updating Sync

    Probably that data services one then. Usually pairing the phone and accepting once gets rid of it. A couple others have also said they keep seeing this one at random too. Not sure why though.
  4. Having trouble updating Sync

    It probably indexed the drive, which means you don't have the files on there correctly. You'll unzip the main file you download to the drive such that you have the autoinstall, the DONTINDX (or however that's named I forget the exact acronym off hand) and then the SyncMyRide folder with a series...
  5. Sync stereo

    4" is not compatible with AA/CarPlay. Non-touch screen.
  6. Do All Rangers have Sync 3 with Car Play?

    Only the 8" system supports CarPlay. You'll already have the supporting USB hub.
  7. Sync 3 v3.3 Update Available - 4U5T-14G381-AN

    What about if you don't plug in for CarPlay? Might be a glitch like the other pop-up causing it to come up too often. I haven't run v3.3 in a while though to poke around.
  8. Playing CDs in Ranger

    Right, no touch. So, I don't think that one has HD Radio since it's a base unit, no CarPlay/AA of course, no Nav AppLink apps, like Waze though the media ones work. You have your AM/FM/SXM/BT/USB, etc. Use voice for any large media database as the non-touch interface can be bit of a bear for...
  9. Sync 3 v3.3 Update Available - 4U5T-14G381-AN

    I believe that's supposed to be shown one time per paired device connection. So, if you have your phone paired, it should show it to you once, then not again unless there's no device connected, or a new device is paired that hasn't accepted yet. Do you have a phone paired?
  10. Sync 3 v3.3 Update Available - 4U5T-14G381-AN

    Nope, that particular package is common among all regions. The voice package that comes with the 19052 update is regional.
  11. Playing CDs in Ranger

    If it’s the 4” system you’re referring to, then yes. It’s based off SYNC 3. For example, the voice rec implementation is identical for all practical purposes. If you had two side by side the same commands would work in each, etc.
  12. Playing CDs in Ranger

    Most likely if you use the same software to rip the others you used for the others, it’ll work. You can see if what you’re using will automatically populate the ID3 info but since it works in the Transit it seems like it is at the basic level at least. And yes, if it works in your Transit it...
  13. Playing CDs in Ranger

    Music note button cycles Media sources (USB / Bluetooth Audio). That 4” should be the SYNC 3 Lite system so it operates the same with respect to indexing, browsing and voice recognition as SYNC 3 for USB.
  14. Sync 3 v3.3 Update Available - 4U5T-14G381-AN

    Do you normally use Android Auto or CarPlay? If so, you can disable them when needed (I think there's a settings shortcut on the Home screen when they're active), then it'll re-activate the built-in Nav, etc.
  15. Playing CDs in Ranger

    Depends on the software used to rip the media, etc. for how good it is "out of the box". There are several different tools available where you can import your library and automatically look up/populate tag information, etc. from databases. You can check the files to see what's there now with...
  16. Playing CDs in Ranger

    Make sure you tag all your media properly as well for matching up with Gracenotes, etc. Garbage in, garbage out otherwise.
  17. Sync 3 v3.3 Update Available - 4U5T-14G381-AN

    If you still have the old -AM file, you can try to see if rolling back helps. I believe it should install as it's not the same version. The other post has a direct link to that package, so you can try that if it's active. There shouldn't be anything in the latest build that makes this...
  18. Sync 3 v3.3 Update Available - 4U5T-14G381-AN

    As of now, it seems like the 3.4 update, whenever that rolls out. It can occur with any 3.3 build to date.
  19. Sync 3 v3.3 Update Available - 4U5T-14G381-AN

    The Alpine is an aftermarket unit. I think Alpine and Pio have them. On an OEM basis, last I saw it was maybe 10ish nameplates total that had support. Handful of Audis, couple BMWs, etc. Check PM
