Copy files to your device

Use the latest version of the desktop Player (Windows Media Player 10 or later) to synchronize digital media files to your device (instead of dragging a file from a folder on your PC to a folder on your device, for example). Using the desktop Player ensures that licenses are copied with protected files.

Always synchronize the files to a storage card that is inserted into your device. Do not synchronize to a storage card that is inserted into a storage card reader. In addition, do not synchronize to the internal storage location (RAM) in your device.

To synchronize content to your device automatically

1.On your PC, start Windows Media Player.

2.Insert a 32 MB or larger storage card into your device, and then connect your device to your PC.

3.If you have not set up synchronization between your device and PC, the Device Setup Wizard opens on your PC.

4.In the wizard, click Automatic, select the Customize the playlists that will be synchronized check box, and then select the playlists that you want to synchronize.

5.Click Finish.

6.The files begin synchronizing to your device. The next time you connect your device to your PC while the desktop version of Windows Media Player is running, synchronization will start automatically.
