Just picked up a 2007 G35X with premium audio. I would think that you should be able to download music from the compact flash drive directly to the Music box...but I either missed the instructions on how to do this, or this seemingly intuitive process does not exist for this car. Also, I bought an 8 mg compact flash card, and loaded it up...yet I only see 46 entries or albums listed when I plug it in. I take it back to the computer and I see 120 albums...so maybe card reader has a size limit that I don't know about. Any help or direction would be appreciated.

1) Can't move music from CF card to HD.
2) There is a limit on the number of songs the system will see on the CF card. I think it is 512? Most people use 2Gb card(s).

Thanks for the response. I found the music FAQ's after I posted. With so many different "inputs" for music, it seems counterintuitive to only allow one method of actually adding music to the on-board hard drive.

Where did you find the FAQ for the music? I still don't know how to use the flash drive!
