Hey, in all my other BMW's I can split the screen and have clock and local weather on right side. My new to me 2014 X5d keeps telling me "no connection". My iPhone is paired the same as M4 and M2 but it won't work.
Ideas?

It's not your phone. Looks like connected drive is not connecting due to your area coverages, expired service, or outages from BMW which happens quite frequently.

Do you have real time traffic? If so, your connecteddrive is active, otherwise its expired. BMW live exclusively needs connecteddrive option. There are hacks to disable it by coding and use phone data, but it will disable BMW assist also.

Go here for more info on Connected Drive and pricing.
There phone number is 1-888-333-6118 and with the last 7 of the VIN should be able to confirm if the vehicle has any service.

I still can't believe BMW cheaped out and gave us 3G connections LOL
I don't use connected drive either.. my iphone with unlimited data saves the day for weather updates, flickr photos, or whatever else connected drive offers
