I've had the same problems...sometimes going into the fuse box and unplugging the SYNC fuse works. One time it didn't, I've been told to unhook the negative side of the battery and that helps with the SYNC. I haven't done that yet though. I've had way too many issues with the Ford SYNC, thier software is far from good.
Didnt work . Ford Kuga USB stick flashes red light on USB stick. Using an adapter for cigarette lighter the same issue. BUT using a charging lead to a phone WILL charge the phone. Car doesn't seem to light USB sticks
I have a 2013 Ford Edge. My USB stopped working. I did a Master Reset through the System Settings. I've read you need to wait five minutes or 30 minutes. I didn't try it again that soon after the Master Reset, but it did work again when I started the car the following morning. I also removed SYNC from my phone's Bluetooth Connections.
I’m having the same problem with my 2016 for the USB stopped working and doesn’t charge and the media button doesn’t work and I just bought this and it’s really frustrating
I'm driving a Ford for the first time and trying to get the phone set up. Nope. None of these videos are helping. Fords support section is TERRIBLE. Sync is the worst design I have ever seen.
same problem i was having with my mustang took it to the Ford dealer it was there a day and a half,when i called to see about my car the service person told me the mechanic tried the usb and was charging his phone,i asked if it was completely working because it wasn't reading my ipod device,he tells me my ipod might be the problem i knew it wasn't because i play my ipod on any dock and it worked,i tried different devices,cables still kept saying line in,went on a few forums this morning sunday a dude says disconnect neg battery cable for like five minutes and lo and behold the thing works again,save me time and money from another trip to the dealership,sometimes devices and electronics do freeze,like computers and phones i guess Ford sync is no different.
I've basically given up on using voice commands in my car. It doesn't work worth a shit. Neither does the USB connection other than charging my devices. Bluetooth can stream music though thank god
I have a 2010 Ford F150. Mine was working fine with my ScanDisk sport; but, I made the mistake of updating my Sync Software. Since I updated the software it is not working. Same thing you are getting. No USB found. Mine always says charging.

Whoever programmed sync, I question their ability and I am an idiot. The worst programming period.
I have same issue , did you figure it out? Please let me know. Thanks
Try unplugging the fuse and plugging it back in on the sink it works for me.
I have the same problem on Ford Edge 2019, did someone found the solution?

fucking sync, cant make a decent device in 2012, this is absurd
What name and year
Change usb format from NTFS to FAT32.... Thank me later
How do you do that!?
Hi, I am experiencing this issue and was told about fat32.... there is music already on my USB stick, if I format it, will it erase it all?
I have two working USB Thumb drives one with NTSF and the other with FAT32 and no difference.
Don’t chew gum while you are doing these videos
Get a life kid
He can do whatever he wants.
sync only reads one kind of format the old fat
Helped me a lot . Thanks
What kind ?

Through that piece of crap away and go dig out you old cd's or mp3.
Or just use Bluetooth. DUH
