Synchronizing Windows Media® Player Library Files
Use the Sync feature in the desktop version of Windows Media Player to transfer your
Windows Media Player library files from your computer to an expansion card or your Treo.
Your library can include digital music, audio, video, and playlist files. Using Sync ensures that
your Windows Media Player library files transfer correctly.
During setup, Windows Media Player selects the sync method (automatic or manual) that
works best for your Treo:
Automatic: If you’re using an expansion card that is larger than 4GB and your entire
library can fit on the card, Windows Media Player automatically syncs your entire library
when you connect your Treo to your computer or when you change sync settings. You
can also choose which playlists you want to sync automatically.
Manual: You indicate which files or playlists you want to transfer each time you update the
digital media files on your Treo. To remove files from your Treo, you must delete them
manually.
Note On a Windows XP computer, Windows Media Player must be installed on
your computer before you install Microsoft® ActiveSync® desktop software.
You can install ActiveSync desktop software from the Getting Started CD for
Palm Treo 800w smart device that came with your Treo. Windows Media
Player 11 is already installed on Windows Vista® computers.
Note The pictures and videos you create with the camera on your Treo are not
part of your Windows Media Player library. See “Synchronizing Your Media
Files” on page205 for information on transferring pictures and videos from
the built-in camera to your computer.
