Ipod Nano and COMAND
Has anyone been able to connect the current iPod Nano to the COMAND using the media adapter?
I connected it to the COMAND today. On the ipod it says connected but warns that it cannot be charged. While the COMAND says no media connected.
I was able to connect with an iPhone before. So I am not sure why it doesn't seem to work with Nano. Does anyone know if the media adapter is compatible with iPod Nano, or do I need something else?
TIA!

Funny you mention this... between my wife and I we have several ipods and an iphone. My experience with these devices is as follows.
-shuffle (all gens): can't connect because of the jack
-mini (first gen): works fine
-nano (third gen): works fine
-nano (fourth gen): works for a few minutes and then says no device connected/ this problem is persistent
-iphone: works ok but the library/categories get all messed up on the Command menu
I have sirius radio in mine so that is pretty much what I listen to. If I use an ipod I make sure it's my third gen nano. I have never bothered to figure out why the other devices glitch.
This may seem odd but I have also reverted back to my CDs. The sound quality is MUCH better than when I plug in my ipod... it can't even be compared...
