SYNC offers significant capability beyondthe previous system such as dialing acontact name directly from the phonebookwithout pre-recording (for example,“callJohn Smith”) or selecting a track, artist,album, genre or playlist directly from yourmedia player (for example, " play artistMadonna).
The focus of SYNC is tocontrol your mobiledevices and the contentstored on them.
My previousBluetooth voicecontrol systemallowed me tocontrol theradio, CD, andclimate controlsystems. Whycan I not controlthese systemswith SYNC?

Reset the Bluetooth on your phone byturning it off and then turning Bluetoothback on. If you are in your vehicle, SYNCshould be able to automatically re-connectto your phone if you press the "Phone"button.
There is a bluetooth bugon some order versionsof the Android OS thatmay cause apps thatwere found on yourprevious vehicle drive tonot be found again if youhave not turned offbluetooth.
My Androidphone isconnected, myapp(s) arerunning, Irestarted them,but I still cannotfind any apps.
Unplug the USB cable from the phone, waita moment, and plug the USB cable back into the phone. After a few seconds, the appshould appear in SYNC's Mobile AppsMenu. If not, "Force Close" the applicationand restart it.
The USB connection toSYNC may need to bereset.
My iPhonephone isconnected, myapp is running, Irestarted theapp but I stillcannot find it onSYNC.
Try increasing the Bluetooth volume of thedevice by using the device's volume controlbuttons which are most often found on theside of the device.
The bluetooth volume onthe phone may be low.I have anAndroid phone.I found andstarted mymedia app onSYNC, but thereis no sound orthe sound isvery low.
Force close or uninstall the apps you do notwant SYNC to find. If the app has a "FordSYNC" setting, disable that setting in theapp's settings menu on the phone.
Some Android deviceshave a limited number ofbluetooth ports apps canuse to connect. If youhave more AppLink appson your phone than thenumber of availbleBluetooth ports, you willnot see all of your appslisted in SYNC's mobileapps menu.
I can only seesome of theAppLink appsrunning on myphone listed inSYNC's MobileApps Menu.
