I seem to recall having to wait a while for it show up in the list. Maybe you have a lot of files on the USB drive.? Try again when you're going for a 20 minute drive. Just an idea.

Initially (when it worked) it had only 1 album. Copied about 5Gb from PC to USB stick (in artist / album folders), and no luck.... Thought maybe its the folder structure, so moved all the files to the root of the USB....No luck again. Tried just copying 1 album (again to root of USB), and still no luck...... All of the above was with the car ignition on (but car not running)... I will try doing it during a drive (after the cars been running a while) and see if it makes any difference. The strange thing is, the message comes up so quick, it like it hasn't even tried to read it (although it could just be it is this fast). BTW...the USB drive works fine in the console....so I know its not the USB. Any help would appreciated, this is really starting to bug me now. |

I've imported folder structures from USB onto the HD, no problem there.
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. |

I don't think it's an issue with car 'seeing' the drive, it does that part fine.
It's just when I try to do the actual import, it comes up with the message 'no corresponding data available on USB device' what ever the hell that means. |

I tried to export a playlist as explained above, but with no result. What am I missing? I put the .m3u file on the root directory of the usb drive of the central armrest, and also tried .3u8 and .xml versions but nothing works. 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 |

See my thread for a full guide on using a USB drive, with full tagging, playlists and everything else you can get on an iPod apart from the apps of course. I use a standard HDD, with no problems. No need for an SSD in my experience, much cheaper and works really well. It may not last 10 years, but neither would an iPod. I've used hard drives in cars for year, and this one has been in for the last 10k miles/3months within skipping a beat and that's on plenty of awful potholed backroads.
