Deathlok Report post Posted September 9, 2009 I was told this by the dealership who got in touch with FORD. Apparently, there is known issues with the iTouch & the USB port in the 2010 Fusions. Mine was giving me a connection error/see dealership. SO they checked & reset it but contacted FORD. So until further notice, FORD recommends that you DO NOT use an iTouch in the 2010 Fusion USB port! FORD is working on a solution. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We do not get Sirius real time traffic alerts & all the other real time stuff. Are there certain USB drives that work with FORD sync? I tried one I got at BB. It had some word documents on it & 5 Mp3s, but once I plugged it in, it said there were no files it could recognize or something like that. Any ideas? I also went to the syncmyride web site & tried to download the program that will tell you what software you have on sync & it would not download. Here is what I get: Step 3: Install Files in your VehicleDownload Status: We weren’t able to download the following files: * SYNC Traffic, Directions & Information—Update 3.0 *** Perhaps it only works in USA.

mirak Report post Posted September 16, 2009 Why even hassle hooking up your iTouch? I just put all my music onto a USB jump drive and leave it permanently plugged in. And I don't think SYNC will recognize an mp3 unless it contains metadata identifying the artist, album, song, and genre. This might be your problem. There is a free app available at syncmyride which automatically goes through your library and fills in all the missing metadata. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should be able to download this no matter where you live. I had the same problem. My guess is your computer has Internet Explorer 8 which doesn't like the syncmyride website which needs to be updated. If indeed you have IE8, next to the "refresh" button in the toolbars is a "Compatability" button. It looks like a blue piece of paper with a horizontal zig-zag on it. Click it and this will allow you to perform your downloads successfully. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
