USB does not work

[MrMegadeth]

Ok, I did the leg work. M4a is not supported. Need to re encode.

If you choose M4A due to iTunes it should be able to reencode as mp3, IIRC.

Actually I just got back home and that's what I'm going to try right now. I re-read the manual again this morning and saw that. At my dealership they insisted only format is M4A.

If you want lossless go FLAC. All of mine are in that format and it works great.

MP3 done and works. Told my dealer

OK here's the solution I have come up with and it works flawlessly:

1. turn the bluetooth off on your phone.
2. put the flash drive into the port on the dash console (Not glove compartment) and push the start button once, but do not hold it down..... do not start the car.
3. wait for the flash drive to either appear or press the MEDIA button on your dash.
4. once it is loaded and working, then start your car and turn on the phone's bluetooth

I hope this helps!
There's some type of conflict with bluetooth and the usb port

So can I take my ITunes library and copy to a USB drive and possibly load it via the USB then to listen to tunes? My phone IOS and my iTunes revision still running on Win 7 don’t like each other or I would just play from my iPhone. The few songs I purchased direct from iTunes from my iPhone work just fine when played in the car.

There's a list of all the supported formats and bit rates. For example, FLAC is supported but not at all bit rates.

well this solves a problem I was having

Per my dealer, alleged problem with USB port. Replaced once, still very hit and miss with no consistency playing tunes off of my I-phone, very annoying. They are gonna replace port a second time. Will stop mid-tune, switch over to radio, when you push MEDIA button, reads "no device connected" despite either an I-phone (or thumb drive) plugged in.

I can't see your history or profile, but surely you've replaced your cable with a new, quality cable?

Fwiw I have a Hi Rez player from Hiby their R3 Pro that plays any and all files ex: DSD, Flac basically anything the player can decode in this case all. And plays through the Bluetooth connection easily and I keep several mini drives to feed it. I also can play Spotify through my phone vie Bluetooth.
