Phonebook not uploading - i phone to MY 2016
Last night I noticed that an incoming call in the car displayed the number rather than the contact name, then this morning when trying to make a call the phonebook wasn't available at all.
Previously this has worked faultlessly, but I have just done the latest IOS update (the security one they have been on about).
Does anyone else have this problem or know if there are any hidden settings that may have been changed with this IOS update?

Is the same number in your phone book twice under different contacts? ISTR that was one issue I've had a various times with differing systems.Mark.

No, but it’s the whole phone book won’t download so I can only call out by typing/saying the number rather than selecting a contactJoined the BMWX5 45e group

After the latest update on iOS I noticed the same, but it rectified itself after a hard reset.

You now have to allow access to the phone book ... used to do it automatically
Easiest way .. delete old pairing .. search again .. pair and it will ask you if you want to sync your contactsG4 Gone ...but not forgotten

by coincidence ( ? ) my android phone needed both the code for the D4 and the "allow" box ticking this morning. I don't think it's run any updates but it did die very suddenly yesterday evening ... battery went from ~8% to zilch in just a few minutes.
