FWIW it isn't just Squeezebox Touches that this issue occurs on. I have about a dozen USB sticks floating around and I regularly find USB ports on PCs that one or more of them won't work on. Admittedly most of them are very cheap and nasty ones. -- andynormancx Yes, it will. Yes, all of them.

That's further than two of my USB sticks ever got. Touch's server won't even recognize their presence (automatically or manually selecting "start server"). On the other hand, another USB stick and a 160gb Iomega eGo USB HD work flawlessly with Touch's server. It's just a USB crap shoot. :) -

As far as the Touch is concerned the filesystem type does not matter as long as its one of FAT32, NTFS. EXT2 or EXT3. How that relates to Macs I have no idea. My guess is to just use whatever works with the OS on the computer. As far as putting files on a USB device over the network goes, any i

Some USB sticks and HD's simply will not work with the Touch. I have a brand new (purchased retail 90 days ago) PNY 2gb USB stick that works flawlessly with every device I've ever connected it too. Except the Touch. :( I'd suggest you try a very small folder of music on any USB device, see if T
