#47 of 58 Mp3 Aux Jack Causes Mp3 Player to Reset by ccantore

Oct 20, 2007 (11:01 am)

I have a 2008 Prius with 6 CD mp3 player and an auxiliary jack. When I plug in my mp3 player (Creative 30GB), the player almost immediately resets and rebuilds its hard drive, and it continually does this making the mp3 jack useless, and perhaps endangering my mp3 player. This is unique to the car stereo, as I hook the player up to my home stereo, computer speakers at work, etc., with no problems. I figure the car stereo is sending some electric current into my stereo, rather than passively accepting the audio, but whatever it is I'd like to know if anyone has suggestions?

I have a 2006 Prius and want to have the display screen stay in audio mode displaying the mp3 information longer than the 20- 30 sec's it does now before defaulting to the main screen. anyone know if this is possible and how.

My BlackBerry 8130 Pearl works perfectly as a phone.
How do you set up the music player.
The 2004 Prius does not have an AUX music input jack.

#51 of 58 AUX Jack 2006? by captainron042

Dec 16, 2009 (7:14 pm)

I don't see too many people posting that they just bought a USED prius. Maybe that's a good thing, Maybe not? Makes me wonder why the one owner before me got rid of it, lol.
 
Anyway, I just bought a used 2006 prius. Don't know what package. Is there any way to tell?
 
Also, I was under the impression that all 2006's had the AUX jack? I'm a huge audiophile, and being chained to regular radio is driving me nuts. I do not own an ipod (for god sakes, there's better things out there than those things). Can anyone tell me how I can find the AUX input if there is one. I looked all over and inside the center console and dash, but cannot find it.
 
If I don't have one, is there a way I can hook one up directly to the factory radio, besides the FM modulator route.

#52 of 58 2010 Prius IV Bluetooth Phone Problem by bioman

Sep 24, 2011 (9:53 am)

Our 2010 Prius and our 2 HTC Incredible phones were working perfectly until yesterday. Now, when we try to make an outgoing phone call, using dial by name or dial by number, the process begins and then suddenly cuts out and the radio comes back on. Receiving calls have also stopped coming in to the car. I have tried pairing and re-pairing both phones and the problem is the same. The problem is not the phones, for each one works just fine on thier own. Any hints as to what is happening? Has anyone else had this problem? If yes, how was it resolved.

i just purchased a 2011 prius and am trying to put the my cell phones contact list onto the system. I was told that without the nav sys i would have to do it one contact at a time and there is limited memory. Is this the case? if so, hoe do i load 1 number at a time?

#54 of 58 2010 Prius USB Audio, Flash Drive Limit by gem4skis

Jun 08, 2012 (2:26 am)

Might there be a secret compatibility or size limit USB Flash Drive on the 2010 Prius? I was able to load and play from one brand's 1-GB drive, but the system never read any data from another brand 4-GB drive. Thanks!

#56 of 58 How to play MP3 CD on 2006 Prius? by carl90

Dec 03, 2012 (11:30 pm)

I have a single disk CD player that came with the car. The manual says it should play MP3 CDs, but when I insert one, nothing happens. How do I get it to play?
