Need more detail. Is the card out of space ("won't let me save more")? Or does the head unit not see some of the tracks you put on the card? The most that the car will recognize is 512 tracks per CF card.

Check that the tracks are in supported manual and check the directory structure per manual.

i believe he's talking about the file type of the tracks. mp3...mp4 or what have you, just check it with the manual.

yep, sorry about the brain fart earlier. Unsupported file format is the only reason I can think of to prevent displaying the tracks on the head unit.

All of my music is in MP3 format. Also I don't have any folders set up.

Not fonts, character sets . I have the same problem on both my CF card and iPod, have to rename some of my tracks.
