If I connect this usb cord to my car power plug, when I connect the AUX side to my iPhone headphone jack, will it play music?

I do not believe so. I purchased it to charge my wireless head phones. It did not work for my particular set. I would be concerned about your approach as it may damage your phone

Most USB power ports are not connected to the stereo systems cars so it will not work, and even if it is unlikely that this cord will work for it.

USB only supplies the power. The audio uses the head phones cable to connect to your AUX in of the radio

I use the Aux In connection on my Wave Radio II and it works well in terms of playing from an older iphone. You will get an alert that the connection is not fully compatible but I ok out of that and move on.

It doesn't transfer data in my case: my car audio has only 30-pin connector for iPod and I've bought this cord to plug in my Nexus instead. No data, no power - nothing...

I have only used it for the iPhones (4, 4S, and 5S) and it works perfectly. Yes it allows you to play music from the iPhone as long as you have an AUX plug available on your car stereo.

My experience is that the USB is only used to POWER the device, not to actually transfer music data. To hear the music you have to use the headphone port on the opposite side and plug THAT into a "line in" on the car stereo. If you don't have a "line in" on your stereo, this product is probably not for you. Cheers.

I have a coaxial white/red cord with head phone plug on other end. Plug it into aux on receiver and play music from any device headphone input u can purchase this cord off amazon.

Mine didn't come with a car power cord but if you had one I would imagine it would work out ok for you. I hooked mine to my entertainment center so my girlfriend can play music from her iPhone/pod/pad. Works great. Turn on your device and hit play. Pairing it up is easy too

there is no USB input, but the AUX Input will accept low level audio signals from other devices. If the device has a HEADPHONE OUT, it would likely play through the AUX input.

The answer is YES. I just did it. The power input is also a normal AUX input. You need a different cable, called a 3.5mm auxiliary input cable or AUX cable, which has male plugs on both ends. One end goes in the or3, the other in your device's headphone jack, works like a charm. (I doubt this will charge the device, though: you'll probably have to swap back to the cable they provicde to do that.)

It will play through the head phone jack via an aux cord but will not charge/play on the dock without a 30pin to lightening adapter.

It will not play the sound through your car speakers during a call, but everything else it will. Make sure your dock settings are correct as James suggested. Make sure you are plugged into both the cigarette lighter and the aux port on you car stereo.

Hi Maria. Yes, you plug it in to your cigarette lighter and then attach the transmitter to the bottom of your iPhone and set it to a fm frequency that is not used by a radio station and tune your car radio to the same channel and hit play on your iPhone or iPod. It actually charges your iPhone as well. I have one and it works pretty good. Any other questions just ask. Happy holidays&#128522;

Probably not since tthe car's "USB outlt" is probably only connected as a power source, not as a "real USB port" capable of connecting an audio source.

I have an IPod Touch 4th Generation and it plays music on my but doesn't charge it. My guess is it wouldn't charge your IPhone, but it might play music.

I don't know if you're bypassing the battery or not when you play it plugged in. Not sure what you're really asking. I have mine plugged in 95% of the time and listen to it that way. And yes, there is an aux in jack.

I would assume so. If you plug in any Apple device via 30 pin or even an Android/mp3 player to the earphone jack and hit play, it will magically make music emanate from your vehicles' speakers.
