If your car has the media player function when you connect to the usb drive it should automatically play the music from your iPhone. I don't store music on my phone but every time my daughter connect her phone to charge using the usb it plays her music. Hope this help.

Hi Sandra,If i understood correctly...you do not have in your radio a hole to stick in the auxiliary wire to listen to music. If that is the case i has same issue... This device plugs in to your car cigarette lighter outlet and that is it! You can listen to your iphone music! There is a auxiliary hole in the transmitter cup, and it comes with auxiliary cord to plug your phone into it.Since you and i had common problem, and this is the only device i found that doesnt break and has auxiliary outlet!I strongly recommend getting it. I had mine for almost 4 months and this is the best thing ever! Hi Sandra,If i understood correctly...you do not have in your radio a hole to stick in the auxiliary wire to listen to music.

Hi Brian,1st of all I don't have an iPhone 5 but when my friend connected his iPhone 4s it did not transfer the phone audio just the music. All notification does sound through the speaker so it some times gets annoying because it cuts your song for few seconds.

Yes. On my Iphone 5, it lowers the music volume for a second when I go over speed, or it gets hit by a cop. But the music keeps right on going.

If your car has an usb slot, and you correctly install your car files & download your music onto that file it should work. But just downloading music and plugging the drive in your car wouldn't do anything

I have only used it for the iPhones (4, 4S, and 5S) and it works perfectly. Yes it allows you to play music from the iPhone as long as you have an AUX plug available on your car stereo.

Yes you can play music from your iphone or ipod; however it will not play thru your car radio.

(update) On some cars, it will instantly play, no download or software configuration needed.I primarily use this drive for photo, documents, and on-USB programs, but it will play music. Make sure to get a small loop and lanyard though, it can be hard to take out of ports without one.

This uses a battery, so starting your car has no effect on it. Unless the device your using to stream the music from is dependent on the car's power, then likely that device will stop playing. I stream from my phone, and has no effect when the car is started. Hope that makes sense

It will not play the sound through your car speakers during a call, but everything else it will. Make sure your dock settings are correct as James suggested. Make sure you are plugged into both the cigarette lighter and the aux port on you car stereo.

It doesn't connect to the radio it plays through the car sound system by sending the music feed to the car radio using an FM signal. It does play music from my ipod very well. The radio/ cd player etc play independently. This product is very well made plus it charges my ipod and my phone simultaneously while in use.

It should play music from any device that has an earphone input jack. I use it primarily to listen to podcasts taken from iTunes, but it ill play music on my mp3 player. I suspect it will work with any car that has the 12 volt cigarette lighter or 12 volt input which everything I have ever owned does.

I've have not experienced first hand hearing phone audio through the device. I primarily use it with my macbook. The device does not differentiate music with my mac and plays all audio. I would suspect it will be the same with your iphone 5.

I don't understand this question. If your car only has CD capability and you want to play a CD in your car you'll have to use CD recorded music. If your car has Bluetooth capability or a 3.5 mm cord adapter auxilary input and you'll play music from your cell phone, this memory card will suffice to store and play music from your cell phone.

I have an iphone 4s. as long as you have the media audio input enabled, every sound from your phone will go through. gps, music, text tones, etc. yes, your navigation on your phone will go through the car speakers.

This cable works with 3 different iPods in our 13 CTS. Once in a while it needs to be unplugged and plugged back in to get it to work. Since you are using an iPhone for music I can't say for sure if it will work. From what the dealer tech bulletin tells me you need to put the iPhone in airplane mode to get it to play.
