[QUOTE="Paperm4ker, post: 6482617, member: 616807"] Hey i know this is an old thread but I just wanted to help anyone others that were having the same problems as me. Apparently I wore out the IDA-x305 ipod cable because it kept connecting and disconnecting to the point of uselessness but would still connect to my USB drive [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif[/IMG] It's a mystery... I found that you can buy another replacement USB cable from alpine's part store [URL="http://www.pacparts.com"]http://www.pacparts.com[/URL] and searching the model. Me being impatient and wanting to fix it immediately instead of waiting for it to ship, I searched some electronics stores to see if they had a similar Alpine cable and found that the Alpine KCU-440i cable which says that it's only for the CDA-105 series head unit actually IS the original cable for the IDA-x305 according to Alpine's Australian website... It also has the USB to Ipod interface cable so you are able to listen directly from a USB drive and connects and powers my Iphone 3g running 3.1.2 firmware. The link to the Alpine website for the KCU440i cable is [URL="http://www.alpine-usa.com/US-en/products/product_acc.php?model=KCU-440i"]here [/URL]. I don't know why Alpine would leave that info out of the manual AND USA website and then specify it ONLY on the australian website [URL="http://www.alpine.com.au/products/product.asp?modelID=408&search=1"]here [/URL]... thanks for making that piece of imformation extremely difficult to find [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif[/IMG].... The ONLY difference I can see in the original cable and the KCU-440i is that the original cable has a screw attached to the USB to attach to fasten it to the back of the head uint, which isn't completly necessary in my case, but so far the cable has been working flawlessly as a replacement. I found that some Best Buys carry the cable but i would call first to check. [/QUOTE]
