Has anyone got this cable work (select songs though iDrive)?

Nope! Online answers suggest to me that the BMW software is to blame. My car is a 2008, so maybe newer cars have updated software.

I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble. I have purchased this cable a few years ago and I am still using it with no issues at all. Perhaps you should try contacting Mediatbridge and let them know you are having difficulties.

This cable only works for mini connect but not to play music and display the album art due to obsolete Mini Software... Mini needs to make an update in order to run with iOS7. Regards!

Sorry, no. I plugged in an external 1TB hard drive with a single cd on it just to see and it said "Either the cable or device is not recognized by MMI". So I'll just continue to use my iPod or I also have a blue tooth adapter that uses my phone.

Hmmm, I've not had this issue. Generally I use the usb plug on the unit and then can use its (somewhat primitive) menu via the tv/monitor. It works through all the channels for me. I suppose if you're looking for a 5.1 or 7.1 situation then it would depend on the audio file type. I hope this helps...

This is a toslink cable, if your Aux interface is not digital toslink type, it will not work.

I'm also having problems with the sub. It worked initially but now it doesn't. Nothing comes out. I've tried a different cable and different sub so I know its the receiver. Did you ever figure out what was wrong with yours?

I bought this a few months ago but have so far not been able to connect as it has no RCA connections. Should get XLR cables soon, so if you are not in a hurry, I can give you some feed back shortly (next 2 weeks)

It's always possible that you got a defective cable. Try contacting Pioneer.

I have had this cable for about a month and use it with the older iPod Classic. When I hit the forward arrow on my steering wheel (or on audio controls), the current song stops and a new one begins. Hope that helps.

I think it requires a different cable. I plugged an auxiliary cable into it, and it would not play sound through my subwoffer.

I have never tried that combo as I used the cable for outputs rather than inputs however it stands to reason it just might work if you trace it back the othe way... I suspect it might be a mono connection though...

This cable does not work. PERIOD. Research it. I found my answers to this affect after making the purchase, and trying to troubleshoot what else could be the problem. Sorry for the bad news. I do not know how anyone has gotten it to work for them, or in what capacity.

No, the USB cable does not work. The radio display says "cable is not compatible"

I never had luck with APEX. I agree could be for an update or try another cable. Even if cable is new, doesn't necessarily mean they work.
