We did an update to our 2014 Edge this morning

 

Thanks - I just sent a pm. Hopefully, they can do something for us.

 

Hi HizliBullet,

Have you already tried these troubleshooting steps: http://owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-t...ync-navigation

You're welcome, SpectreH.

Thanks for sending over your info!

Kim

 

So, Kim, why does this release NOT do one of the basic things it was supposed to do - remember your audio source?

 

Any word, or rumor on if there will be an update to Sync that will allow Apple CarPlay????

 

Yeah, that's not happening. Would probably require a serious hardware update, way beyond just software.

 

I just heard 2011 not getting the update. Hope it was bad info.

 

It could be made to work on the old hardware, but then they would have to maintain two versions of the software...something I doubt they'd be willing to do.

 

Did Kim tell you that? I haven't heard back from my "escalation" yet.

 

It should be a simple update for Sync 3 since that had switched away from Microsoft and to a Blackberry based OS. All it would need to do to work with either CarPlay or Android Drive is to turn on mirroring and allow a phone to screen share with the display in the car.

 

Not from Kim - I read it over on Facebook. Someone said a Ford tech told them it's not available for 2011 models. Like I said - I hope its wrong because I would really like that update. My guess is it will probably be something we need to take in to the dealer to get it done.

 

It's supposedly for 2010-2014, I don't see why 2011 would be excluded...but what do I know. I'm waiting to hear back from Kim as well. I hope you are wrong too

 

only thing this update did was allow me to talk back to txt - now the audio source goes back to FM and when bluetooth rings my phone it flashes on and off on the display - I press the phone button and it answers but this is not an improvement - wish I hadn't upgraded......

btw - I run a htc one m8 windows 8.1.1 phone - you'd think microsoft would make it so windows phone and sync work together eh?....5

 

I'm going to just keep my March 3 2012 Gen1-V3.1. It does everything i want it to do

 

Well, at least the people who wrote the software got a clean compile.

 

Installed the update a couple days ago and got to try it out longer term today while driving in traffic. I've always had a pretty flawless experience with SYNC and my phone (HTC One M7) since day 1. Like others have mentioned, I like now that when I listen to the music on my phone via bluetooth, it displays the artist/track title on the console (I don't have a navi screen).

One thing that I was hoping would change though is to be able to switch back and forth from Pandora and my phone music using voice control. Unless I'm not doing it right, I haven't found a way to do that. For instance, if I want to stop listening to Pandora, I've pushed the voice button and said exit, which exits/stops Pandora. But then next when I say "bluetooth audio" to listen my music, it ends up just playing Pandora because it's still running in the background of my phone. So basically if I want to go from listening to Pandora to my music, I have to pick up the phone and physically stop the Pandora app. Anybody know a way around this?

 

Anybody else lose use of USB2 after the update?

 

USB working for me.

 

works for me too

 

USB and USB2 is still functioning after the upgrade for me..
