Banjoman Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I have an 80GB archos jukebox that I plug into SYNC via USB. It worked fine for a few days w/o incident, but lately, everytime I startup the MP3 player, sync will start playing a song from it and then reboot. After that, it plays fine. Unfortunately, it takes a few minutes to do that reboot during which my center screen is blank / unusable. Is there a particular filename SYNC is seeing that makes it think its a ford SYNC update? Or just a size / incompatability? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banjoman Posted November 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 I didn't find a solution for Sync rebooting when my USB player is connected. I did, however, buy a 64GB SD Card and copied my music collection onto that. No reboots using the SD Card and no need to carry the MP3 player around.

ls973800 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Do you have navigation on your 2013 that you are now using the 64GB SD card in? If so, are there 2 SD slots like the 2 USB slots? One SD slot has to be used for the navigation card. I don't recall off hand seeing 2 SD slots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banjoman Posted November 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 I do not have navigation, so the SD slot is ideal for holding my music. I'm pretty sure there's only one SD slot. There are two USB slots and I tried both with my MP3 player, but had the same results with both of them....SYNC would start reindexing and then reboot with a maintenance update message.

flyinlow007 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Only 1 SD slot, if you have nav its used for that. You can always take your nav sd out of the slot and put music in there, but then you lose the nav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellbine Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 I used to have this problem as well with my 80GB iPod. I ended up changing the usb cable to a new one and that seemed to resolve the problem. It only happened during the last version of MFT for me though. The reboot would trigger for me when I would navigate to search by playlist. I organize all my songs in playlists and select what I want to hear that way. As soon as I hit the playlist button, or navigated there by voice command, it would freeze and then reboot. After that I could use the device with no issues. Try changing your usb cable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Mediabridge & StarTech make some good quality, decent priced USB cables. I tried the cheap, noname ones from EBay/China, too fragile. So, back to BezosMart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
