AMI USB Issue
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hello All
I have a 2007 A8 with AMI installed , the car originally came with no cables so i purchased a AMI to USB cable of ebay ,plugged it in and everytime i plug a usb stick in (tried all different format options exfat,fat32 ect) i get the message displayed in the attached photo.

Has anyone seen this issue before , im not sure if it is refering to the AMI operating system or the files on the usb stick.

I think that i may need to run the MMI update and update the AMI software , can you just update the AMI on its own ??

Thanks as allways

Never seen that one... There is an AMI update available from Audi, might be worth putting it on your USB stick and see if it updates itself.

Have you put music files on the stick? Maybe it's confused with being given a blank one.

Tried the AMI_Update_080423.bin but it says its not compatible?

There was music on each USB but just keep getting the same message(usb was blank except for bin file when trying update)

After a quick google.. There's a suggestion that you may need to run through the Update CDs for the MMI system.

What size is your USB stick? Might be that it doesn't like over 32Gb sticks.

I have tried 2,4,8gb ,looks like i need to do the cd MMI update to make the AMI compatible with USB!

Hmm.. Do you have a portable HDD that you could plug in to test?

Mine worked with the iPod and USB HDD straight away.

Mine is working with a 64gb memory stick. Aren't there different cables with different colours on the sockets. Could it be a non compatible cable?

After updateing my MMI and associated modules to 5570 my AMI is working with USB sticks , looks like it was my version of software on my AMI was too low to support USB.
Thanks All

May I ask which make of memory stick you are using? I tried a Kingston 64 gb stick, and it was hit and miss, more miss in fact. I'm now making do with a 32gb...

IM using just a standard 8gig stick at the moment but when i get home on friday i will be trying other devices to see whats compatible
I will post up my findings over the weekend to let you know how i get on.
