Professional Nav / Media Player
Just taken delivery of an X1 23d with Professional Nav
1. The voice input for addresses seems to be disabled in the Australian model... or is it a problem with mine? It returns an error and says function is currently unavailable 2. I have loaded WMA's onto the hard drive. I have turned on RANDOM, but it seems to forget the random setting between car starts. Is this by design or a problem with my unit. Thanks. |

yes, I have voice input
i say "destination input" and it responds with "that function is currently unavailable" it seems to respond to music searches fine. |

does anyone know what the hard drive capacity for music storage is? Also, are some of the more interesting things available in australia for the professional nav system... eg BMW online? Internet access? |

It would be great. As it is, I find it rather lacking, not to have my BMW "online", and having no option to do it. |

Basically, it seems in countries other than Germany the professional nav's only advantage is a slightly wider screen and a 3D view angle??? |

The Business-Nav is really sufficient if you just want to go from A to B. I also can recommend a 250GB 1,8" Harddrive for the USB-Port. bye Darky |

Toshibas 1.8" USB Stor.E disks are rated For 500mA consumption on the USB port and therefore I have no worries connecting the harddrive to the port. The disk just works fine in the car - no fried disk or usb-port yet . bye Darky |

Got my X1 yesterday. Got the iphone snap-in module and it works like a charm, but if I try to connect an iPod Touch to the USB it wont regognize it. It charges but cant access the music on it. Read in the manual that one needs a special cord for it. Any one know any solution on just using a regular iPod USB cable?
Also, when attaching a stick with music, I had trouble accessing the music. Is there any special formatting needed for the stick or some special folder setup on the stick? |

Hi,
congrats to your new X1! Quote:

You can create folders on the USB-Stick to structure your music, you can also use .m3u playlists. Just put your mp3, mp4, wma etc. music on the stick and you're done. The failsafe test would be to put a normal, single MP3-File on the stick :-) bye Darky |

Thanks alot for the information.
Guess I am going to BMW to get one of those cable. But my iphone works perfectly in the snap-on holder. See all my music and stuff then. Got it to work with a stick. Unfortunate, when using MacOS X, OSX has all these hidden files in a folder that you normally dont see when at the computer. But when in the X1 I see them. Will find a solution to get rid of them hopefully. |

I'm confused. Does it work because it's an old iPod (5th Gen) or because of something else. |

Attach your iPod to your iTunes and select it on the left bar. On the main window in iTunes you should now see in the "summary" tab an options panel. uncheck the "enable disk use" option and your iPod will stop working in your car. bye Darky |

Unfortunately I cannot uncheck the "enable disc use" option to try out your suggestion. It is greyed out in my iTunes. So I'll happily stay with my white iPod cable until I need to move from the iPod classic. Right now I have no plans to do so. Thanks for your help. |
