Boidster Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I can e-mail you the PDF of the SYNC user guide (for a 2012), if that would help. I don't have a Zune and I do have the Nav package, so I'm not sure I'd be able to help directly. I use the Slacker SYNC app on an iPhone, so totally different application. This thread over at Microsoft seems to say that formatting the Zune (and reloading your music, I suppose) fixed a similar problem. Good luck.

Torched10 Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 ok being an engineer i tried to eliminate things---the zune works in my STS V using wh-red-yellow cables--so im guessing the unit works.Then tried a single cable from te zune into the sync--again the Zune plays,altough not able to use voice commands--so again Zune works. Coonected the Zune to my PC using the USB cable abd the PC sees the Zune unit, so im thinking the cable is ok, although itis possible the pin needed to play music thru SYNC may be bad. So its either a bad cable, which i doubt, or the uSB connection in the Shelby may be bad--Ill try and fine anotehr cable, if not ill bring it to the dealer--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelGoodwin Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 I had the same issue with my Zune HD so i wiped it clean and reloaded everything and it worked fine after that. Yeah it seems like too much trouble just to get the Zune to work, but it fixed my issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the top right hand corner of the Zune application, click Settings. Once in settings, select the tab that supports your device. In the column, you should already be on Sync Options. Within the information on the right you will see Erase All Content. This will clear your Zune and you can then start over fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96slowbra Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 sometimes you need to disconnect the battery of the car for over 10 minutes, this is to reset sync. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
