2007 G35 Music Box by sprinkler13

I am wondering if anyone here can help me out with this. I saw on the Infiniti website that there is a way to find the missing titles for songs that have been recorded to the hard drive. I guess I am supposed to transfer the missing songs to a CF card and then use a program on my computer to find the song titles online and add it to the CF card. The problem is that for some reason I can't seem to access the menu item on the car that will "transfer the missing songs". It is there, but it is greyed out and I can't select it. Just like how certain features are greyed out while driving. However I was parked and the engine wasn't even on. Is there a step that I am missing? Do I need to download anything to update the music box software itself? Any help is appreciated.

Go to infiniti.com and go to the owners site. You have to put in your VIN number to register. Once there, under the "G" section, they have a link to download an application that will update MP3 information for files on the CF.

Yeah...I already have that software, my problem is that the option that would transfer the titleless songs to the CF card is always greyed out. I think it has something to do with the actual songs. Maybe some info that goes with the tracks was lost in the transfer between putting it in itunes and then burning a cd to put it on the hard drive. Hopefully it's just for those couple of albums...I can input info manually, but I certainly don't want to have to do that everytime the disc isn't recognized.

Gracenote ONLY works for retail stamped CD's. you can't burn a CD and have it rip to the HDD. A retail stamped CD has a special key or code that's read, like a UPC code on a cereal box. every CD has a unique code and that's what's used by gracenote (and all services i.e. itunes) but nothing will burn you a CD with that code (at least not to my knowledge)
 
The only way you can get names on the musicbox for burnt CD's is to either burn the CD with full CD text, which I beleive the musicbox can take the text from that. or to manually edit them.
 
your starting to experience the issues with iTunes that I think are going to be the end of iTunes in the near future. people are looking to put their music on more then just their PC or ipod, and unfortunately iTunes in it's current stat with it's proprietary format lock you out of what you've rightfully paid for. I have a couple hundred iTunes songs which are all useless if you want to copy them to the CF card, another device or just play over a media device (i.e. media center PC or xbox360) all itunes songs are unplayable. And not to mention that iTunes files are of fairly low quality when compared to MP3's at a medium rate of 192.

Parking Brake? by robkane

It has been awhile since I've done it...I think I remember something about the parking brake having to be on. Also, I think I recall occasionally having to hit the AUX button multiple times before the videos would appear. Have you tried those?

is it really true that you cannot random play the hard drive? Thats kinda strange... I was hoping to use a compact flash card to fill it with MP3's and looking forward to random play. Can you create playlists?
