What quit... no power? no sound? no communication from the drive to the unit? Did you check the power plug, power source, are there any lights on, etc.

This happened to us within a few weeks of starting it. We replaced the USB stick that came with the unit with another random one and it began working again.

I am not sure at all, outside my expertise. I loaded my own music (Jimmy Buffett) on a USB stick, it has been running for months non-stop.

I did not have mine long enough to get to use this option. My usb port like all the portable speakers I have gotten online all seem to get loose & disappear into the unit. I had to return mine 3 weeks into owning it & did not repurchase another one. I am sorry I couldn't be of any help on this & hope if you do buy one you do not run into the same issue. Blessings, Kristie

I run out of the Main Outs into my Lexicon Alpha USB Interface. I have had multiple boards with USB cards built in but they all really suck as USB Sound Interfaces. Love the way the Lexicon Alpha works and the recorded sound it sooooo much better. That is my solution. Even you can get the Alpha pretty cheap and it will far out perform build in USB interfaces.

My problem wasn't the power. It worked fine. My problem is that the USB3 Main input broke off inside the unit when I p=tried to attach the USB Cable and now the unit is useless. So I'm screwed. Paid $56 a couple of months ago for a useless unit.'

I brought it for my grandsons with an Behringer 302USB Premium 5-Input Mixer with XENYX Mic Preamp and USB/Audio Interface for $49 they say it works but they can't download the software to do the mixing personally I read an answer to this question that makes more sense --return it and buy a snowball usb mike. I goggled it and it is cheaper and seems less complicated to use and set up-- http://bluemic.com/snowball/

I don't think so. I don't use it for USB but when I got your question I put one in. It just started playing. I think that on the Sangean web site there is an operating manual that you can view. It might tell you more.

Interesting. I've never seen a USB sound card/adapter this small. Thanks. I'm glad you were able to fix your problem and enjoy your speakers.

I simply plugged my USB stick in, it said "Reading" for a rew seconds and started playing a song. I would suggest you try playing the music on your stick on a computer. If it works, there may be something wrong with the Axess. If it doesn't, there may be a problem with the stick or the music on the stick.

this is a bluetooth device and thus requires drivers, it will not function before the operating system loads. the included usb adapter requires a usb port or a port on a connected hub. check your operating system for compatible driver availability. short answer is "it depends on your OS."

Yes, I have tried with Ubuntu Desktop 14.0. It found the USB audio device by itself. Michael

I bought this thinking the same thing. When I tried to do this, it did not recognize the files that were on the USB. So in my experience it did not work.

I had trouble with my Shuffle on my laptop with USB 2.0, so I tried my Desktop PC with USB 1.x and could not get any recognition of the device. Just an FYI.It worked fine on another computer with USB 2.0.

First look at see if any wires are cut or sliced. Try using another USB device. If you don't know the installer personally, he'll just give you the run around. If it still doesn't work contact Autosound directly. Mine came dead out of the box. I had to return it, they replaced the motherboard on it. My USB port works, flashdrive, smartphone etc.

I am on my 3rd return of these. I have two prior that worked great. Purchased another, to load different kind of music on and have been returning now 3 times as won't turn on after I disconnect it from USB port. I bought around same time as you and wondering if a bad batch!

My opinion is, the one I bought did not work at all. It did nothing. It says its compatible with anything that has a standard USB but I couldn't get it to function at all. Had several genius folks look at it and still got nothing.

The unit has a usb and a mp3 input. If you can plug your xm head into the mp3 Jack it will work. Regardless, I would avoid this unit. Read my reviews-i had nothing but problems with multiple defective units and their repair company flat out lied to me about repairs. I had SEVERAL defective units, and I want the only person who had problems. I would pay a little more and buy a better unit with better support.

Go to B links website and download the software. I also got a error with the download though. I am using windows 7 (64). The software works, but it sometimes blue screens my computer when i plug the USB in. Good luck!
