if you upgrade the software to 5.5 it will work without dongle. hope that makes sense

Only if you've got the hardware upgrade, as per Chris's earlier post.

will pass it on to him  :thumb:

We sell them in the Abarthisti shop, slightly discounted from RRP and you get to help the forum out  :thumb:

If it works already there isn't really any point, but you can do the update yourself just by following the link and the instructions available there, no need to go to a dealer.

looks like my chassis is 505263, so hopefully has the new hardware.
I'll need to see if my Ipod Video works on it as I've just been using a 4Gb USB stick for playing music up until now.

Nothing, old saying goes: if it isn't broke, don't try to fix it.

Hi,

Just got my A500 and am still learning the functions. I would appreciate some help if possible!

Paired my i phone without any issue today. What do I have to do to use my ipod touch? I connected it to the usb socket in the car but nothing. Would the b & m adapter sort this issue out?

Thanks for any feedback.

Greg.

Going back through the thread, depends when your car was made.  Earlier Fiat Group cars need the dongle.  Go back in the thread to check, not sure what the date is but anything 09 or earlier defo needs the dongle.

The Fiat.com website unfortunately still says:-

Quote
Software update for Blue&MeTM NAV is under development and will be available as soon as possible.

Edit:  Scratch that.  If you go to the new Blue&Me website:-

http://www.blueandme.net/blueandme/index.aspx?brand=fga&lang=en#/support/download/

Change the second of the two pull-downs to "Blue&Me Nav", then click "Blue&Me Updates".  Click somewhere in the wall of text that appears below, and it starts a download of something looks like the 5.5 Nav update.

However.  Very Large Disclaimer: I have no idea what this is, have no way of testing it, and couldn't even say if it'll be in Italian or English.  Install at your own risk.

So, how do you install this update? Doesn't really tell you on the fiat website :( Is it just a matter of unzipping the download and copying it onto a usb stick?

The warranty could have definitely helped the brakes, if you were careful.
