    You need to buy a usb mdi cable. It replaces the iPhone cable. Get one from eBay not from a dealer.

      As Kamold says The cable you have only charges the Iphone Buy this if you DONT have an Iphone 5

      Otherwise stick the music on an SD card and poke it in the hole in the front of the RNS

              FWIW the iPhone/iPod cable allows me to play lossless music. The SD card doesn't. I suspect the USB would have similar limitations.

              I also find it quite handy to use SIRI to play tracks by artist/playlist or album.

                If you must use a stick or similar it would be easier to use a card for which the socket is already there As far as lossless is concerned, you aren't exactly playing it in a concert hall so why worry.

                Its just background noise for me and I concentrate on the driving. LOL

                    My car came with the USB MDI cable only and not the iPhone cable. It works fine, but is easier to copy from SD to internal HDD or use my phone Bluetooth.

                        What file system is on the USB drive?
                        Has to be FAT32 for the RNS510 to read.
