You may need a tip adapter like Scosche ... Apple changed the wiring configuration on newer iPod.
Question:
I installed the iPOD Kit this evening, when I plug my iPOD Touch I don't see the BMW logo on the iPOD and I get the following message on the iPOD "device cannot charge". I know the dealer has to activate it in the firmware but shouldn't I at least get the BMW logo and show the device is charging? Thanks

Is that also why I'm not getting the BMW logo on the iPOD?

I bought the connector and now I can see the iPod Touch is charging (Good Sign!) I have to visit the STEALER next week for activation. Thanks again for your help and everyone else.

This is ridiculous!!! I called the dealer this afternoon to book the car for activating the iPOD, they want $258 + Taxes for the activation only! Is this how much it really cost to activate???
