vcor----GREAT tips (I tried them last night and this morning and they worked! Thank you. And thank you everyone for your help. I found an old USB from several years ago that I used back in 2017 in the car. I stopped using it probably back in 2019 or so because the icon stopped showing up and...

EV--how does the Apple Music app work? I am wondering if this is along the lines of what my daughter is thinking about where it does not involve the USB. I don't know how my songs are saved on my computer-----my daughter did it many years ago and loaded it on my I-pod. I-tunes does sound...

EV--yes you are 100% correct. The center console and not the glove compartment. My plugs are in the back wall closest to the back seat in the center console.

Thank you for all the information above. It is greatly appreciated. I will have my daughter read it, and I am guessing she will see the way to go is with the USB option. One last question---once the songs are on the USB, I then plug the USB into the plug in the glove compartment----then what...

Is there a specific USB or USB format I should look in to? I seem to recall years back when I 1st got the car folks were talking about a fat something USB or fat something format. Your feedback above regarding the USB seems like an easy answer. Would I be able to drag to songs to specific...

What is the best way to get songs I have on my computer to play in the car (2017 S)? My daughter will be doing this for me, and she wants nothing to do with a USB. I do have an i-pod if that helps. Or should I get something else? Thank you.

I loved the Zaino. Like you folks, I used it on my corvettes (except my last one----2015 Z06 with 625 HP, which I had Expel put on 100% of it). Initially, I found the Zaino instructions and multi step process to be extremely confusing, but after the first application it really did become a...

Resist, the PPF under the ceramic held up fine, but the ceramic coating itself didn't hold up. There were two problem areas about the size of a half dollar. The 1st one the installer blamed me for not knowing how to properly clean a dirty smudge type blemish on a car---it was a bird drop[ping...

PS----forgot to mention. One PPF installer added a ceramic coating over the Xpel. I did not ask for this 'extra' they gave me free because I was a good customer...........and I found it defeated the purpose of the self healing PPF (the ceramic scuffed, etc. and did not self heal). I had them...

Had Xpel on 3 sports cars before we got our Teslas and loved it. I never liked washing, waxing or polishing my cars-----hated when I was young and hate it today (also too old to do it today)----think it goes back to when I was about 15 and my brother went away to basic training. Every weekend...

EV---think I recall your name from the 'old' Tesla Forum where you were always extremely helpful. I just asked my wife, and we both 'think' it was the Sentry Mode" we couldn't turn off. I seem to recall a little red light would go on went Sentry was on, and no matter what we tried the light...

We do not have the dashcam USB in either car (S and a 3). We tried it when this feature was 1st offered to us, but it was just a pain (recording everything and no easy way to view the relevant pics). The final straw was when we couldn't get my dashcam to shutoff-----no matter what we did it...

I am on the elderly side, so I am asking for your patience. Up until last week I was able to get my USB to work the last few years by unplugging it, waiitng 10 seconds, and plugging it back in. The USB icon would show up and I woud be fine for that day unless the car was off for more than an...

It sounds like a new thread should be started by the OP praising Tesla's service and how they stepped up and fixed his car. Maybe the post heading could be along the lines of "Another example of great customer service from Tesla."

I have the exact same issue as SedonaGerry. It started about 3 years ago---also lost my streaming favorites at the same time----guessing one of the updates messed things up. I now have to remove the USB for 5-10 seconds, then plug it back in. After about 10-30 seconds the USB icon shows up...
