Question re using iPod in CLS
Guys,
The questions are starting to acculumate as i decipher how to use this car.
Here goes with the first one!!!
I am trying to use my iPod by plugging into the auxiliary usb port in the center armrest. When I do so, I can use the rotary knob of the COMMAND system to select an album off of the iPod, but it plays one song then goes to a random song next. What I am trying to say is that the system won’t play all of the songs on an album in order, nor is it recognizing the playlists on my iPod. If I start with track one form any album, it plays that song then goes to some other random song. Anybody have any pointers?
If I try to use the iPod to select the music, as soon as I plug it into the car, the display on the iPod flashes "Do Not Disconnect" inside of a circle with a slash across it and I cannot input any commands. If I unplug the iPod, then I can once more use the controls on it no problem.
Anybody have any pointers for a non-tech savvy newbie to figure this out???
Thanks in advance guys.

I know that Command has a separate shuffle feature (it'll say "Mix" on the bottom of the screen) that you might have to turn off. That's my only guess.
