I though well maybe it's the iPad, so I tried it with my brother's iPhone 4s and doesn't even recognizes the phone. Same with my sister's iPhone 4s. We don't have BMW assist in Brazil.

Why would there be a need for this cable? I am a bit confused. What I am trying to do is get BMW Apps to work trough the iPhone on my 6.5" Professional radio/screen. My Galaxy S3 works, connects to BMW live and everything, activates the bluetooth tethering automatically when needed, but Android doesn't have the BMW Connected (which gives all Apps) etc ... frustrating as the S3 has great integration with this system already.
I will assume you ordered BMW apps with your car. Try the white iPod / iPhone cable. Start BMW connected while pad/phone is connected to car and BMW apps running. There is also a diagnostic mode in BMW connected with simple instructions. Should that not work, you need the iPhone snap in adaptor with BMW app support. Note they have 2 versions of the snap In adaptor, one with and one without BMW apps support
