1: Split-screen off
2: Split-screen on, arrow mode 3: Split-screen on, entertainment details. 4: Radio, Station WFAN from Presets list. 5: iPod, Play Last Position 6: Nav, Route Information 7: Nav, Cancel Guidance 8: Nav, Start Guidance Home Buttons 1-3: I do a lot of driving with the nav and like to have a quick ability to toggle between full screen and the two most important split-screens. Buttons 4-5: I like having one-push access to instantly start one of the three input modes. Prevents the need to hit "Radio" and then scroll down to "Satellite" or "AM". Same for iPod. Buttons 6-8: The three most important navigational commands. Shortcut Keys that can't happen (yet should): iPod Playlists, Traffic Alerts. BJ Last edited by boltjames; 11-14-2012 at 09:51 PM.. |

For all of you with the 'Navigate Home' option...how did you do this? I entered my home address, then hovered over the 'Start Guidance' option, and then held down my hotkey. This logged 'Start Guidance' to the hotkey, but it doesn't seem to be associated with that address. It will just toggle start/stop guidance for whatever current address I have in there, rather than my home address every time. Any help is appreciated.

For example, I wanted to program TPMS to a button. So, I brought up the TPMS display screen and pushed and held the memory button. iDrive says it can't memorize that screen; Huh? So I brought up the Vehicle Info and turned to the TMPS item on the menu list and pressed the memory button thinking it would at least remember this menu screen so I could then select TPMS later, but it ended up remembering the TPMS screen as I originally wanted. Then I realized how BMW designed it and the rest of the things I wanted memorized were easy to setup. |

Have you tried just highlighting the address line and then pressing and holding the memory button? |

Also, if you touch (not push) and leave your finger there, a message will pop-up saying "Long press to store". |

i dont think i ever saw that... unless you have the premium i-drive, which i dont have Quote:
isn't External device the same thing as USB drive? what about Auxiliary cable too ? and did you know that pushing on the "Audio" button above the i-drive round selector, selects alternatively the Radio/External/USB drive option/// so technically, you dont have to lose those 2-3 programmable button space for it.. you can just use the "audio" button.. just saying

Yeah, with NAV you can go from day (white) to night (black). Just a nice quick way to have day/night settings.
