Loading pics into the screen on a 2012 FX4
Hi guys. I'm looking for some help on loading pictures onto my truck's hard drive. I havea 2012 FX4 with navigation, Sony sound system and I'm looking to put some picture in the drive.
I did a brief search here on the forum and I couldn't find anything. Can anyone help me?
Thank you.

The left side of the screen will
display an uploaded photo or the
map screen. The right side can also
display the uploaded photo. The
upper right panel will only display
the current audio settings. The
lower right panel displays the
vehicle’s climate settings (if
equipped), the visualizer or the
hybrid fuel economy (if equipped).
Press on the bottom of the display to access the settings screen for the left or right side.
Loading pictures
Your system allows you to save and view up to 32 photos. To access:
1. Ensure that you are on the Home Screen. (Press at the bottom left of any screen to access.)
2. Touch the left side of the home screen to initiate the left screen photo display and saved photos screen.
3. Select the ‘Add’ button on the touchscreen. The following disclaimer will appear, “Please confirm the supported photo formats”.
4. When the pop-up dialog box with the disclaimer appears, press OK and ensure that you are using the proper format.
5. Insert a CD-ROM which contains your photos as jpegs.
6. Press OK. The photos will be listed on the right half of the screen.
7. Select either ADD or ADD ALL.
The photos are now saved to the hard drive.
Photo display limitations:
• The file must be 1.5MB or less.
• The extension of the file must be one of JPE/JPG/JPEG.
• The CD or DVD must be ISO 9660 format, UDF format is not supported.
• The file path must be 255 characters or less.
• Up to 256 files or folders can be displayed in one folder.
• Not compatible with discs written in Packet Write mode.
• Only the photograph(s) which meet these conditions will be displayed.
Note: When burning a CD, ensure that you ‘close’ or ‘finalize’ the disc when the CD-burning process finishes (you should select this option before you start burning). Consult your software manual or the program’s help files if you’re not sure how to finalize the disc. Also, write the audio data into the first session of a multi-session CD as audio systems won’t be able to sort through other sessions to find more audio tracks.

Wow platinum that's detailed!! Thanks for taking the time out to post that. I was under the impression that you could upload images from a memory stick. Guess not, I'll give this method a shot. Thanks again.
