I have an IPhone X. I plug my USB in to my truck and it says "This media cannot be used" however, it still charges my phone. What can I do to fix this? I have cleaned the port with rubbing alcohol and checked my settings and everything seems to be normal. I even did the most recent update after it started doing this.
