A:AnswerNo. There is no driver or program for the player to play through the car stereo and the stereo speakers. A portable CD player is needed; there are ones that will play through an aux port, USB port and Bluetooth in the car. The USB port in the car must be capable of transmitting data not be just a charging USB port. Some of these players that use an aux port may need power from a USB port (then power-only USB is okay). There are many that use an aux port that use batteries or are rechargeable. Some of the rechargeable players can't charge while the USB supplies power. I have not found one of these players that have a slot for the CD; the lid lifts up. There are many out there. There are Portable CD Players for Factory Stereo. These play through the car stereo and have a slot in the player as does a CD player that comes built-in with a car. These cost about $200 on the low end and most are close to $300 and over $300. These CD players for Factory Stereo are car specific in many cases; so, they may not work in another make or model or year. Check the length of the cables for either type of player to ensure that the player can be located where desired.
I know I provided much more information than necessary to answer your question but it may be quite helpful in shopping for a CD player.
A:AnswerSounds like you have old devices that have advanced since you bought them. USBs have changed and are faster. If you google this problem I'm sure it will pull up connectors that will fit. I'd look in the Specs and see if your device was compatible with this device as that's why you would look at the specifications. It will list which devices are compatible and will fit.
A:AnswerI have this plugged into my 2007 white MacBook running solely Linux Mint and have no issues with it. Linux just throws an external burner/reader driver at it.
