Some discussion on other sites suggested I might need to use FAT32, but I was not sure how to do that.

I tried reformatting it to exFAT, the only other option Windows 7 seemed to offer. Then I transferred a few tracks, plugged it into my car, and found it was not recognized. I reformatted it to NTFS, just in case I might someday want to store a huge file on it. Then I bought a 64-GB Transcend JetFlash 820G USB 3.0 flash drive.

Because the Owner’s Manual does not make it clear that there is no way to use a portable CD player or driver with this car, I wasted a lot of time researching that approach.

Only after I committed to buy a new 2017 Honda Civic did I realize it did not have a CD player. Problem Solved: 2017 Honda Civic Does Not Recognize USB Driveĭoug, thank you so much! I have spent some time on other websites, but only yours solved my problem. I hope this helps anyone else out there looking for a similar solution. It was a bit of picking to find the process, but now that I have it it is reasonably easy. Plus, when I add new purchases, I can slip them into the proper findable order as well. Now, I can find any file by artist, rather than searching through jhundreds of artist and album folders in seemingly random order.

The example below shows me adding a single folder (Nick Cave”) and putting it in its proper place.

On to sorting the files: The forum post pointed to this file sorting utility, which overwrote the default ordering (folders pop up on car display by date modified) by letting you order them as you wish.

One thing I could not figure out was the code for shortening album titles so I could cram more info into the short car stereo display (the example in the post didn’t work for me), but otherwise it worked well. The images below show the process for renaming one of my albums, but you could do the whole shebang in one stroke. I renamed the files (once copied to the USB stick, never touching my originals) to display the album name first to group albums together within artist folders, then track #, then name. Rename the Song Files: The forum poster pointed me to an MP3 re-tagging utility.Arranging the Tracks Logically: A search on the topic didn’t really turn up the exact same problem (the reason for this post), but one Honda Fit forum pointed me to some of the solutions.That got me well under the manageable number of folders. Limiting Folders: That was a simple matter of being more efficient in how I copied music on to the USB drive, creating one folder for each artist (for the most part), and then finding away to arrange the files in order (next).This forum post showed me to use a simple command prompt.

I don’t know why Windows 7 doesn’t give the option when it is the only format some machines will read, but there you have it.

First, I had to solve the FAT32 formatting problem.

The tags in the MP3 files don’t always help, either, especially if you have a single folder for one artist drawing from several albums.

Folders would not appear in any logical order: Actually, it’s perfectly logical for folders to appear in the order you placed them on the disc, but that doesn’t help you when you have scores of folders you might like in alphabetical order.

You could play any track in random mode (I realized this when Velvet Underground tracks played even though I could not find the folder), but you couldn’t go select the tracks manually.

The car stereo would not display all of the folders: I discovered that if you have more than 700 folders, too bad (it’s easy to have that much music on 64GB.

When I tried to use a drive formatted with either of those options, the car would not read it.

The Fit (and possibly other cars) are picky about formatting: I needed to format my disk in “FAT32,” but on my Windows 7 lap top with a 64GB drive, that option doesn’t show up, only NTFS and exFAT.

Gere’s how to format a USB thumb drive for cars, the way I figured it out: There were a few obstacles to getting this just right, however, and I thought I would write about the process here in case anyone else who had issues and like me is a not a super tech-nerd but can handle some hackerish tasks. Not being an iPod owner, I use it to connect a thumb drive that is big enough to hold as much music as I can stand. I drive a Honda Fit (2009 Sport model), and love the USB connector in the dash.
