Part II - Windows Media Player by Tha Mp3 Doctor

The instructions in these pages, which are largely links, pertain to Windows Media Player 10 and 11 only.

Windows Media Player is made by Microsoft. The general help page for Windows Media Player is:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/default.mspx

Through this link, you can enter a variety of search terms that will help you find what you are looking for (exs.: “add files to my mp3 player”; “delete files from my mp3 player,” etc.)

Important Vocabulary:

The code word for “mp3 player” in Windows Media Player is “DEVICE” or “portable device”

The code word for adding files is “SYNC,” “syncing,” or “synchronizing”

The code word for copying files from CD is “RIP,” or “ripping”

The code word for files stored on both My Computer and my Mp3 player (when it is connected to the computer) is “LIBRARY”

To add files (SYNC) to your mp3 player using Windows Media Player 10:

To delete files from your mp3 player using Windows Media Player 10:

To delete files from your mp3 player using Windows Media Player 11:

My Directions:

1. Connect your mp3 player to the computer

2. Open Windows Media Player

3. Click on the icon of your Mp3 player on the left-hand side of the Library

4. Click on the Songs, Tracks, or other Music Folder

5. Find a song or songs that you want to delete

6. Left-click the song once to highlight it

7. Press the “Delete” button on your computer’s keyboard

I have a Sansa c250 and a comp. with Vista. Recognizes player and can add files but
when I go to the WMP 11 it claims the player has nothing on it.

Sansa c250
SanDisk
1.8GB

1.1 GB remaining
Sync list> etc

I just want to delete songs from it without formatting the whole player (something I
can do from the player itself, actually). How do I get these songs to display
on the WMP 11 pane so I can delete them? (And I do think they are all mp3 files)
thanks
(When I go to the left pane and click c250 it says There are No Files on this Device

I should add that before, I was able to do this via Windows Explorer (go to Computer
click on F: and see files. THIS is where I was hoping to delete files from.

also I actually have a c250, let me look to see if there's a category here for that. oops!

problem solved--someone on the Sansa forum said there was a way I could show
hidden files --I should add or delete tracks right from the F: drive rather than
Windows Media Player! It works...
