Is there a way to play a particular playlist on your Ipod through the COMMAND unit? I've played with the menu a few times and couldn't find an option to do that. Or am I simply doomed to scroll through ALL the songs in my ipod until I find the song I want to hear?

No access to I-Pod from command, audio-select-AUX-steering wheel only.
I built better playlists by using genius, yes a PIA.
BTW what rims are those, they look great!

While I can't get it to come up on the Command screen, I can get my playlist to come up on the dash. Try using the buttons on the steering wheel to change screens until you get to your iPod selection. Then use the phone buttons on the steering wheel to get to your playlist. I am able to sort by playlist, genre, artist, etc.

Thanks! They are 20" Luxe wheels. I'm thinking about selling them.

Hi MB newb here. I just picked up a c230 '07 with MB's ipod kit already installed. When I connect my ipodtouch it works via AUX (CDC held down for ~3 seconds) but is unusable as it stands. All I get is one humongous playlist in alphabetical order for every audio file on the device in ~10 characters in the dash. If I press the steering wheel phone buttons to try to get to some form of menu to select playlists, albums and so on, I'm greated with "Function Unavailable".

Does anyone know what this means in real terms? Crawling forums suggests I should be getting into another menu from these buttons. Unfortunately no one at the dealer knew anything about the kit, and calling their MB contact also drew blanks.

I was wondering whether the phone buttons aren't wired up properly, or maybe the ipodtouch isn't supported properly. I can't believe anyone would accept "integration" at such a primitive level, one would expect to at least get to albums, podcasts, playlists, even if the display is basic. It seems to want to work, but I can't find a way into a menu for the ipod.

I don't mind picking up an old gen ipod if the touch is the problem, it'll probably far cheaper than an aftermarket kit, although if anyone cares to recommend something, I'll certainly check it out. Any pointers appreciated!

I'm having the same problem with my 2012 250 c. scroll to playlists and it comes up yes or no to connect??? I have 3700 songs it tried to upload but nothing. Same screen keeps coming up when I scroll to playlists. Plus I'm only getting same 97 songs instead of 3700. what's the skinny lenny...anyone know?
