USB issue
I had posted on here that I was having issues with my USB not reading my drive at times and sometimes not even working at all. I found out online there is a bulletin and it does mention this. It says not all drives are supported.It lists the IPODS that are not compatible but not the flash drives that work or dont work....which I find annoying. I am using Kingston Data Travellers....which are not working. I see there are users on here that have no issues. Maybe if some of you are having no problems, you can post up exactly which flash is working for you? Exact model?

Its going in to my dealer tomorrow to get looked at.We can always call tech-line and see if they have a list of ones that work/dont work. I also just ordered a SanDisk Cruzer 8gb flash off EBAY. I am hoping I get it to work when it gets here next week.
I am just using the Kingstons for other things too as they work fine in the PC. If I happen to get a list of what works and does not work,I will post it up tomorrow. But somehow I dont think they are going to know yet.

Make sure that your USB sticks do not have any pre-installed software. I know that most Sandisk Cruizers have this.
There is usually a utility that comes on the stick to uninstall the software and reformat it to standard specs.

How are you arranging songs on the flash drives? I dont have the USB but I know some mp3 players have limits on how many songs you can put in the root directory or each folder. Maybe they work at first but crash when you put too many songs in the same folder.
