I tried my partner's iPhone 4S with the red cable and it works fine, but a pretty old iPod Nano didn't work at all.  The media system said it was connecting the device and then nothing happened.  I take it the red cable is only good for Apple devices after a certain point in time?

Keep trying with the nano. Sometimes my phone says device not compatible but either reconnecting it or just leaving it a few mins makes it work. I find the lead temperamental but when it works it's pretty cool.

I am using a 5th generation (Sept 2009-Sept 2010) ipod Nano that my wife had before her iphone came along. That works fine in the Golf but I don't know about anything earlier in the Nano series. We have an even older ipod Classic 4th gen (2005) in our XC90 so I will try that one later and report.

I cant get artwork to work at all with my sd card

Im using a mac and finding software is hard to come by, the radio logo's worked a treat.

On an SD card all of the individual mp3 files need to have the images embedded in them, a max size of 400 x 400.  Images will not show if they are seperate files to the mp3's.

I take it your music is all in iTunes?  If so there's a script for embedding artwork on a Mac here:

I've got my iPhone connected with a red lead and my videos display on the media unit. Very cool
