Default My new GS450h. Question re. USB folders

Hi everyone. Just got a new GS450h a couple of days ago. Best car I ever owned. Sublime drivetrain and ride. Excellent build quality and comfort. Great refinement. Standard sound system very good indeed. I have one query though. I listen to my music via a 32gb USB stick. I have 4 different folders on it - General Music A-Z, Compilations, Soundtracks, Irish Music. In my previous cars ( Audi A6/5-Series) the system showed the 4 folders. Then I could go into which ever folder I wanted and select the artist/album/track that I wished to listen to. In the Lexus it seems to have merged the 4 folders together. Is there a way I can sort this? Thanks.

Hi could you plug your USB into your computer - right click on folder name- go to properties and could you put you here the full file name. Thanks

Clicking on the "Folders" tab (see image below) should get you what you are looking for.

Hi. I don't really get you - there are 4 separate folders. Which one should I right click on? Thanks.

Thanks but I already tried that - no joy. It simply showed all the albums.

probably because your albums are folders under those 4 folders and there's no music in the top level folders themselves?

I think you've hit the nail on the head! Thanks. Is there a way I can sort it so that the music is divided into the 4 different genres?
