Transferring Files to Your Lyra Recorder

Important:

Secure music download ﬁles must be transferred to your Lyra player through Windows Media Player 10 (Windows Media Player 10 is only available to Windows XP users.) or the application recommended by the online music download service. Please visit the online music download service’s website where you purchased your content from for more details on transferring secure music to your player.

The Lyra Recorder doesn’t support copy-protected content if you are using Windows 2000.

For more information on Windows Media Player 10, visit http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/mp10.

You can transfer ﬁles to your Lyra Recorder via Windows Explorer.

If your Lyra Recorder isn’t already connected to your computer, connect the Lyra Recorder to the computer using the provided USB cable as illustrated above.

Note: Do not disconnect the USB cable during music download. Doing so may corrupt system ﬁles or the ﬁles being downloaded.

In the Windows Explorer, when the device is opened, the “Data” and “Media” views will be displayed for the device.

The Data View is used to manage data content on the device, such as text ﬁles. The Media View is used to manage media content supported by the device for playback, such as mp3 and wma.

You can copy ﬁles to / delete ﬁles from the device through Windows Explorer, but you cannot open or edit the ﬁles directly from the device. If you want to edit the ﬁles, you will need to copy the ﬁles from the device to another location (drive) in the system.

Transferring Files via Windows Media Player 10 (Windows XP only)

Important: In order to transfer protected ﬁles using Windows XP to your Lyra Recorder, you must set the USB Protocol setting to MTP in the Setup menu before connecting your Lyra. See page 52 for more information.

If you want to take your music collection with you, you can easily synchronize items in your library to your portable device. The Sync feature in Windows Media Player 10 allows you to synchronize ﬁles in categories and playlists in your library to your portable device. For complete details, see the Synchronizing content to devices topic in the Windows Media Player 10 help documentation.
