AppLink Mobile Applications: When I select"Find Mobile Apps," SYNC 3 does not find anyapplications.
Make sure you have downloaded and installedthe latest version of the app from your phone'sapp store. Make sure the app is running onyour phone. Some apps require you to registeror login to the app on the phone before usingthem with AppLink. Also, some may have a"Ford SYNC" setting, so check the app'ssettings menu on the phone.
AppLink-enabled apps are not installed andrunning on your mobile device.My phone is connected, but I still cannot findany apps.

SYNC™ 3

General
Possible solutionPossible causeIssue
SYNC 3 only supports four languages in a single module for textdisplay, voice control and voice prompts. The country where youbought your vehicle dictates the four languages based on the mostpopular languages spoken. If the selected language is not available,SYNC 3 remains in the current active language.SYNC 3 does not support the currentlyselected language for the instrumentcluster and information and entertainmentdisplay.
The language selected forthe instrument cluster andinformation and entertain-ment display does notmatch the SYNC 3language (phone, USB,Bluetooth audio, voicecontrol and voice prompts).
SYNC 3 offers several new voice control features for a wide range oflanguages. Dialing a contact name directly from the phonebookwithout pre-recording (for example, “call John Smith”) or selecting atrack, artist, album, genre or playlist directly from your media player(for example, "play artist Madonna").
SYNC 3 System Reset
The system has a System Reset feature that can be performed if the function of a SYNC 3 feature is lost. This reset is intended to restorefunctionality and will not erase any information previously stored in the system (such as paired devices, phonebook, call history, textmessages, or user settings). To perform a System Reset, press and hold the Seek Up (>>|) button while pressing and holding the RadioPower button. After approximately 5 seconds the screen will go black. Allow 1-2 minutes for the system reset to complete. You may thenresume using the SYNC 3 system.
