Help needed to get USB flash drive to work
After reading comments on another board about how a 64 GB USB 2.0 flash drive was useable as a music source in the USB port in the center console, I bought one, copied a bunch of MP3s to it, and now my car's computer cannot read it. The same process will work with a 4 GB drive. Has anyone had success with this size flash drive, and if so, what suggestions might you have to make it work?

I am using a 64GB USB stick since the day I got my 750 (June 2009)!
You need to make sure the file system on the USB memory stick is compatible with your car! If memory serves me right, you need to format the USB memory stick with a FAT32 file system. If the stick is currently formatted in NTFS, it will most likely not work in your car but your computer would have no problems reading it!
