Currently using an MP3 player to listen to music in my truck (no CD player). I plug in to the USB port on the console. Would this work the same way?

Maybe it would, but it never worked right for me under almost any circumstance.

I plug my external USB drive into the computer. Not sure if it would work like an MP3 player. I think there is a driver on the MP3 player that allows the music to play.

Hi Jane,The USB option is really meant for computer-to-device communication. You could use the output jack, which is used for headphones for your car, and maybe buy an adapter for it.

Yes you can in the back should bee a connection called aux input if you using a portable CD player you gonna need a cable called 3.5mm Jack to Red and White RCA Aux Cable.... Hope this helps

The only way to play your music would be with a AUX connection. USB will not work with iPhone or iPod. I wasn't happy about it.

I was able to control the music with my phone when I hooked it up to the head phone plug. I havent tried it with the usb. I used a usb drive for music and it works great. If you used one of those shorty ones it sits nicely like It's part of the stereo.

If I understand you right, you have a car stereo that has a USB port but no audio input. If that's the case you can can connect your Walkman in this device and play it thought FM Radio. The USB port in this device is another input.

USB plug on the front is useless, does nothing, purely ornamental. There is a 3.5 mm auxilliary plug on the back. I've used 32 pin, lightning, and 3.5 to 3.5 and had no problems. it's a nice little unit if you still listen to cd's. I'd get some else if your getting it primarily for MP3. cheers

I think the USB only charges the unit. I have only successfully played sound with the aux

Yes I connected an sd card with MP3's through the usb and tested it with an MD player on the aux and both worked. I'm using a Pioneer radio....remember the cable is only an extension cable and the head unit needs to be able to connect to whatever is attached to the cable.

No, this device is a power source only. You need an iPhone/iPod to play the music & if your vehicle doesn't have a iPhone port, then you will need a FM transmitter to transmit the music through your FM radio. A device like this will do the trick: Belkin TuneCast II FM Transmitter for MP3 Players (White)

Hi Jovon, THis product only work with the help of the 12V Connection and by tuning to an FM SIgnal will play MP3 contained in the SD Card or the USB Port. kind regards, JQ

If you have an auxilliary jack on your car stereo system, you can play any portible mp3 player on your car stereo. You just plug one end of the cord into the headphone jack of your player and the other end into the auxilliary jack of your car stereo. Then you set your car stereo to AUX. My husband had this kind of stereo installed in my truck for me. Works great! I can listen to anything that's on my mp3 player and not have to carry CD's around.

You can use the jack to plug in an iPod or MP3 device. The CD player itself doesn't take the MP3 format. I hope this helps.

Yes that's correct. Use mode "Line". But mine is broken. Connect the aux cable in with my MP3 player, have to wiggle the plug to work. Other second unit works fine. I think the best use as MP3 player with micro SD or USB card.

Hi, this Sony Portable CD player doesn't have a USB port. However, you may use the headphone jack (3.5 mm jack) to connect on your car stereo AUDIO IN (if it supports it). -Ely

Yes and no depending on the specifics of your question that I'm lacking. It can play a "burned" CD-R. If you are referring to playing music off a CD-R that is in data only format, it cannot. There is no USB port on this system. Hope this helps.
