Gracenote Update?

Just tried this without success. I'm assuming this is for all models; I have a Touring with standard radio. Anyone tried this? I followed Mazda's instructions, but when I (6) "Press the down arrow to scroll down for more options." the arrows don't cause the menu to scroll down, so I cant's get to (7) "Touch Gracenotes Update."

Oh, sorry then. Thought that update applied to CX-5 when I was going through the compatibility and clicked on 'gracenote update'. Guess I was wrong, sorry for posting wrong information :(
 
Gracenote update

That's the wrong update file/site. Looks like site got updated but it's wrong. This update file is 239megs, this is for the new Mazda Connect inside Mazda3 2014, not CX-5

Read the other thread for the proper url, you can access it here too: http://www.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/displayPage.action?pageParameter=bluetooth
or: www.MazdaUSA.com/USB
The one that is compatible with the CX-5 is only 18 megs.
Or here: http://www.mazdahandsfree.com/download.php?file=mazda/na/update.package

Those links no longer work. Does anyone have a current link for the update.package file? All the ones on the Mazda website is .up files
 
I was finally able to update the gracenote database using the above file. The update is under phone and then setup. It seems like it updated something. I have a 2015 GT.
 
It is the database needed for the voice activated system for the Ipod/USB etc. When you use the 'voice' button and ask it to play a particular artist, the database voice will repeat and confirm your selection. I think the update adds more functionality but I don't use it that often to see what is different since I updated it.

just got a CX-5 Touring and the Gracenote version is 5. But it doesn't list tracks on CDs like it should.

Any easy fixes for this?
