Apple apps such as Photos, iMovie, Safari, Keynote, and QuickTime Player work with many media formats. Some apps prefer specific formats, but most formats work in most apps without additional software. Older or specialized formats might not work as expected if your device, its operating system (macOS, iOS, or iPadOS), or the app you're using to view or play the file doesn't support the file's format.
I do have the new update for IOS 15 but I had updated my previous phone and was still able to play music through that phone with IOS 15 so that makes me believe it is an issue with the new phone. I am using an apple charger to plug into my car as well. Any advice is appreciated!
So Since I got the iphone 13 pro max I have been troubleshooting spending hours on the phone and erase all and restore. So finally got the right person on the phone from Apple this morning. the problem was the music wont' play, like trying to play but just won't play. here's how I solve my problem. Iphone 13 pro max settings >> General >> Transfter or Reset Iphone >> Reset (bottom of the page ) >>reset all settings .. go get a coffee , relax , when it's done , try pluggin in usb in your car and music would play now...
I followed the instructions from the forum and went into Settings/Music/Audio then select EQ (equalizer) and turned it off. That worked and I was able to play music via USB port in my car successfully.
I have an iPhone 12 Pro and I listen to audio in my car via a USB cable. Very recently I've started getting a message in the car "unsupported version" and I can no longer listen to audio that way. I assume this coincided with a software update because this has worked fine with all previous iPhones and worked fine with this one for the past year. If I turn the key - but not motor - on I can play audio but as soon as I start the engine I get the error code and nothing I do can get past it.
I am not sure if this is a software issue, but my alarm clock is not playing the songs that I have selected. The songs are downloaded in Apple Music. I have deleted said songs and reinstalled them and still nothing. The software is up to date with the latest version (at the time of this post iOS 14.6). The funny thing about it is that it plays the songs that I downloaded weeks ago. The 2 songs that I have attempted to use as my alarm ringtone were just downloaded within the last 2 weeks. Hence, why I think it may be a software issue that hopefully will be fixed with the next update. Has anyone else had this problem or have a solution on how to resolve this? Thank you.
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I understand that Airplay is involved--and that simply "turning it off" may be the solution. But as I've said, I cannot see a way to do that. I can't seem to find a button that toggles Airplay on or off on the phone (even in Settings>General>Airplay & Handoff, which is where I'd expect to see that). And again, please see my screen shot from a few minutes ago. It won't let me uncheck (disconnect?) ALL of the devices visible there; it appears that one must be checked at any given time. If, for instance, I click on MacBook Pro, Airplay will send the audio signal from the iPhone to the laptop, as expected. But if I then click to uncheck the MacBook Pro, Airplay automatically re-selects the iPhone. Can't deselect all the devices. Can't turn off Airplay completely. The widget persists on the lock screen. Most frustrating.
Thanks for your reply, but If by this you mean the Airplay icon in the upper-right corner of the "Not Playing" widget(?), that doesn't work. There IS no apparent way to turn it off. All that I see is a list of different devices to Airplay to...
Raicya, I think we're talking about two different things, and maybe I have a massive misunderstanding about how Airplay is supposed to work. My question is not about how to re-activate the player control (controlling "Soldier On" in your screenshots just now) after the iPhone screen auto-locks. I understand how to do that (I use face recognition instead of a passcode, but that doesn't matter), and I understand that once the phone is unlocked that screen disappears if I launch an app or interact in other ways with my phone (maybe that is what you mean by "Then Airplay is Off", just above). But that's only temporary; the player control re-appears, again and again, in my lock screen, even when I haven't been playing music or a podcast, or whatever, for many hours. Maybe that's because Airplay is always "on", even if nothing is actually playing. So my question is how to get that behavior to stop. I don't--ever--want to see that player control on my lock screen. Full stop. I'd be happy for Airplay to be totally disabled--except when I choose to turn it on to use it. How to make that happen? :-)
Yes, we're talking about the same icon. But as I said, that simply brings up a list of devices I can choose to Airplay "to" (TV, iPhone, MacBook Pro, even my hearing aids). There is no "off" button or option, nor are there any on-screen instructions....
I appreciate your help. This is all a bit weird, though. My Airplay list seems to require that one device be selected at all times; I cannot deselect all of them. See screenshot taken from lock screen while a podcast was playing:
