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.

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.

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 page 205 for information on transferring pictures and videos from the built-in camera to your computer.

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.
