Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi relatively new to PH. Recently took delivery of a Cayman GTS. Wow what a car - better than a 991 Carrera -you bet?? My query/cry for help has to do with the transfer of my i-Tunes library to PCM jukebox. Although I can find details on the net on how to transfer i-Tunes to an external source (i.e. Jukebox) via a USB stick - it appears that in transferring details to the USB I may loose the use of the music inventory on my Mac. Am I correct in this assumption or does i-Tunes remain workable on my Mac? If I am right has anyone any experience of successfully transferring i-Tunes whilst retaining it on their Mac & if so, how? Any help would be gratefully received but please keep any instructions simple as I am strictly an end-user of computers, with limited knowledge of jargon. Cheers all Incidentally, this forum seems much more friendly & civilised than some I've come across on PH!!

Hi Welcome to the forum. You can't directly transfer your itunes from you iphone to the jukebox. I connect the phone to the USB port via the iphone cable to use itunes, anything else I have I convert to mp3 and put on USB stick and import to jukebox. To be honest I think the PCM jukebox isn't that good as you can't even save a CD you put in the dash to the jukebox which you can in BMW for example. Ian

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Mad Ferret, Many thanks for prompt reply. I suspected as much - but hey ho thats life, I suppose. I have done as you have, i.e. connected the phone direct to PCM before with my other Porsches. That route is ok but a pain to have to connect each & every time one uses the car. Thanks again, Cheers Rob

POST 4Original post

In the car I test drove, I was able wirelessly to stream the music from my phone once paired, with no need directly to plug in the phone. I was not aware that this required special kit beyond being prepared for phone.

POST 5Original post

I have recently done this for a Macan, but from a windows pc. Go into my computer and find the iTunes folder where the artists and music are stored. Copy and paste to your memory stick. Plug it into the car USB port and ensure PCM is on Juke box. It should read the stick automatically and one of the options is to copy to the hard drive.

POST 7Original post

just a thought, does PCM support .m4a files? I didn't think it dd but hope to be corrected?

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi again, Whey ay! I think I'll try that as well. Thanks again everyone. Rob
