I have the Professional Multimedia and no usb socket inside the glove compartment. How can I get the playlists to work? Any ideias? I am puzzled about organizing a lot of mp3 files on a usb stick
You may have the file locations not matching the actual locations. The iTunes export has the slashes in the other direction from what the car expects, certainly if you are exporting from a Mac.

I usually insert the USB drive before I turn anything on, and then waiting 30-60 seconds after turning the ignition on before I try to import.

Sometime the car will just not recognize the stick, so I unplug and re-plug it (while the ignition is on), wait, and it's usually seen after that.
You are importing mp3s not the apple format aren't you? Just checking.
