Problem for Sony Walkman Video NWZ-S616F MP3 Player

Cant transfer a playlist to my sony mp3 player

By sos dar on Mar 25, 2008

" "

sony mp3 model nwz-s606f tried everything including exchanging the walkman. when i create a playlist and then sync it transfers the music to the library only. when i select playlist on the mp3 play i get the message "no playlist available. please connect to compliant software or device and transfer playlists".i have followed the instruction bulletins from the readme file on the sony media manager and also on the windows media player. had the same problem with both mp3 players. is there a problem with this option on the mp3 player?? It has just been released for sale is my understanding. very frustrated.

thanks

- i can't create playlists
and it doesnt make any sense to reformat the player every time you have to create a new playlist
is there any other alternative- neeraj491987

i found it out myself (no thanks to sony online chat support)
simply, i had to reformat my player, sync ONLY 1 playlist at a time, and then sync all my other songs. really lame way to do it, but it works (did it to mine 5 minutes ago)

Use Mediamonkey to transfer playlists. Go into the synchroize options/configure, select your device and then select all the playlists you want to transfer. They will all transfer in one sync and you will not lose any songs that are repeated on other playlists.

http://code.google.com/p/walkmanmtp/downloads/detail?name=WalkmanMTP_0.4.2.0.zip&can=2&q=This

Download WalkmanMTP from the above link and unzip. If all your files are already on your mp3 player, just create a new playlist, select the songs you want, and sync. If you already have it all on your PC, it will upload the files as well.

If the above link is cut off, this is the entire on one line:

The first thing you must do is format the player and add a playlist like mazeofmyster said. Afterwards, you can freely add new playlists or individual songs.

I've been having the same problem for years with at least six different mp3 players. I'm going to attempt the solution Anaguma suggested.

try using mediamonkey to sync playlists. the only problem is you can't sync 2 playlists with the same songs cuz one of them will lose the repeated songs

So what you mean is that I have to erase everything in there and then transfer a playlist with the media player normally and it will work this time????? that doesn't make sense, I don't want to fill it all over again

How do you 'format' it? I am not tech savy (shocker) could someone post a step by step?

Media Monkey works great with the Sony Walkman.

Same exact problem.. I can't use WMP in general, so I've been trying to move playlists to my NWZ-S616 using a program called winamp, but every time I move playlists I create on winamp to the player, it doesn't move the actual playlists- it just puts whatever songs were in it in my library.. pretty annoying. i can't figure out which folder i'm supposed to be transferring these playlists to or what

have exactly same problem with Sony NWZ-A818 mp3 player

Comment by Dee_22, posted on Apr 02, 2008

mine is also nwz-s616F. i have the same problem. i tried the media manager walkman but it won't transfer my mp3 files and says that it doesn't support my files. and then i tried windows media player 11, i was able to transfer the files in the music folder (the same thing happens when i drag the files using windows explorer) but when i open the sony mp3 music library the albums or the mp3 files doesn't appear. what's wrong?
