i have an 8gb usb drive and when i connect it, it does not show up in the headunit. i also do not see the light on the drive light up. is there something i am overlooking? my ipod connects with the adpater via this usb connection, so i know it works. any ideas what the problem might be?

 

Do you have anything else on the drive beside music?

Erase everything on it, reformat it and try again.

 

It must be formatted in the FAT32 file system, NOT NTFS.

 

reformatting it worked. thanks for the suggestion.

 

You're welcome
