IOS6 emails?

phil3103 · 09-23-2012, 05:11 AM

Has anyone managed to get the new iOS6 on iPhone 4 to bring up texts and emails on the idrive screen?

I just thought it would start working but no such luck. Anyone able to explain to a non techie what I need to do please?

I have 4 non s and I had to change settings on phone. Go to Bluetooth setting on phone. Touch arrow next to your BMW number setting and touch yes to show notifications.
I think then it show on office screen

I've got a 4S w/iOS 6, "Show Notifications" for Bluetooth is on and ConnectDrive drive has the latest update, UPD01005.

Still does not work for me...

Also turn on Notication in Settings on iPhone, also set messages and email in setting/notifications/ emails (and also in Messages & Phone) to Notifications Center ON , Alert Style to Alerts, Badge App Icon ON, Show Preview ON, and the most important View in Lock Screen ON.

Phone must be asleep (locked Screen) for emails to transfer to iDrive.

^ Thanks, I finally got it working now but when I get a new txt msg's there's no audio or visual prompt. Also, is there a way to delete the messages once they show up or do they go away after you've deleted them on your phone and it resyncs? I didn't have time to test.
