Synchronizing Information With Your Computer 95
5.6 Synchronizing Music and Video
If you want to carry your music or other digital media along with you while
you travel, set up Microsoft® Windows Media® Player on your computer to
synchronize music and video with your device.
Other than selecting the Media information type to be synchronized, all
media synchronization settings must be set in Windows Media Player.
Before media can be synchronized, you must do the following:
• Install Windows Media Player 11 on the PC. (Windows Media Player 11
works only in Windows XP or later versions).
• Connect your device to the PC with a USB cable. If your device is
currently connected using Bluetooth, you must end that connection
before media can be synchronized.
• Set up a sync partnership between your device and your PC’s
Windows Media Player.
Note Use Windows Media Player 11 to properly transfer digitally protected music
files from your computer to your device. If you do not use Windows Media
Player 11 to synchronize the files, you will not be able to play them on your
device.
For more information about using Windows Media Player on your device,
see Chapter 12.
