AppLink issues
Possible solution(s)
Possible cause(s)
Issue
Unplug the USB cable fromthe phone, wait a moment, and plug the USB cable
back in to the phone. After a
few seconds, the app should appear in SYNC's Mobile
Apps Menu. If not, "Force
Close" the application and restart it.
The USB connection to
SYNC may need to be reset.
My iPhone phone is
connected, my app is
running, I restarted the app but I still cannot find it on SYNC.
Try increasing the Bluetoothvolume of the device by
using the device's volume control buttons which are most often found on the side of the device.
The bluetooth volume on
the phone may be low.
I have an Android phone. I
found and started my media
app on SYNC, but there is no sound or the sound is very low.
Force close or uninstall the
apps you do not want SYNC
to find. If the app has a "Ford SYNC" setting, disable that
setting in the app's settings menu on the phone.
Some Android devices have
a limited number of
bluetooth ports apps can
use to connect. If you have
more AppLink apps on your phone than the number of
availble Bluetooth ports, you will not see all of your apps
listed in SYNC's mobile apps menu.
I can only see some of the
AppLink apps running on my phone listed in SYNC'sMobile Apps Menu. SYNC System Reset

the function of a SYNC feature is lost.
