When I press "OK" on my phone I am unable to connect and cannot see my music on the NAV screen. Has anyone else had this problem or found a resolution?

I have this same exact problem IrishGuyJay. Any luck with finding an answer?

This is what I found: the 3G iPhone will work with your car's Bluetooth and download your phone book and utilize the hands-free car controls. If you plug the phone into the usb port with the adapter, it becomes just an iPod mp3 player and apparently disables the phone and will not charge it while connected.

Phone: Iphone 3G
Bluetooth: working
USB charging: working
USB integration: working
Everything still works when plugged into USB

Device not compatible fix:
1. Remove bluetooth connection profile from prius (phone section AND audio section)
2. Remove bluetooth connection profile from iphone
3. Restart iphone
4. Plug iphone into USB and integration should work (you still have normal yes/no popup)
5. Re-add iphone to prius (do not re-add bluetooth in audio section, just phone bluetooth)

thanks for this summary. i'll try it and hopefully it will work. now...if we can just get the airplane mode pop-up fixed...

Sadly, the airplane mode popup is here to stay, unless toyota makes a 'works with iphone' certified version. Hardware manufacturers must certify their devices and pay Apple a fee to put a Hardware authentication chip inside the device, otherwise you get the pop up.
