Phonebook

Hi guys,

Just took delivery today of our 750Li xdrive. Question. I have my iphone hooked up by bluetooth/smartphone cradle. Either way I connect, my phonebook sorts by last name, first name instead of how it does on my iphone (first, last). Is there anyway I can switch it to sort by first name last name on the bmw phonebook?

Thanks,

Jblackbelt

Mine does the same; I have a blackberry curve.

To make matters worse you also have to say things backwards when using voice dialing. For example if you stored the name "Alex UK1" you have to say "UK1, Alex". I didn't see an option for this anywhere...the only thing I can think of is storing all your entries in the last name field.

I did not get a snap-in adaptor but my dealer informs me that one is available. I believe the only thing it adds is charging and possibly enhanced reception.

Dude - let me know what that snap-in adaptor actually does when you get it. Thanks.

i can tell you from my car, it essentially allows you to play your music off your phone, increases signal strength and charges the phone.

I have the same problem with my 750i and it is very annoying that it does not reflect how it is on the phone.
