No downloads my computer shows I have no songs and I am not able to transfer songs to my device at all. this just happened recently.

There are 3 possible ways in getting the album art for your music album.

1. Album art may be obtained from the online Music CD database that Windows Media Player uses.
   Note: Not all music albums have album art available in the online CD database.
2. From the online music store where you purchased your songs or albums, the album art may be downloaded along with your purchase.
3. You may also create your own album art by transferring your favorite jpg photo into the selected album folder and rename it to Album Art.jpg.

To download album art from the online database and transfer to the player.

1. Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet.
2. Launch Windows Media Player.
3. Go to Tools> Options> Player.
4. Make sure the "Enable picture support for devices" check box is selected.
5. Click the Apply, then the OK buttons.
6. Select the "RIP" tab on the task menu bar.
7. Insert your music CD into the CD drive of your computer. The Windows Media Player will take a few seconds to show the content of the CD on the display.
8. Click "Find Album Info". The Player accesses the database hosted by WindowsMedia.com and displays information about the album in the Album Information pane. The album art will be shown if available.(Note: For some music CD, album art may not be found in any of the online database.)
9. Click Finish to update all the information about your album and show it in the Rip pane.
10. Connect your Device to the computer.
11. Select the tracks that you would like to rip by clicking in the check b ox next to the track.
12. Click the Rip music button to start ripping the music CD.
13. Once the tracks are finished being ripped to the library, go to the Media library and select the songs that you have just ripped.
14. Add them to the sync list and transfer them into your Device. The album art will be transferred along with those selected songs.
15. Disconnect the Device from your computer.
16. Make sure that the option in your Device has been selected to display the album art on the device, at Settings-> Album art.

1. In Windows Media Player , right click on the song you want to update the album art of.
2. Select "Advanced Tag Editor" option.

if you are using usb jack, connect onit, click my computer, check if removable device under E or F appears.
select storage device in your player, that if your player has. select songs and transfer to, my music of the player. and make sure this music is mp3 compact.
you cant transfer may be your memory is full.
if no indication is showing on your computer, than check your usb cable.
also check if you are able to down load music from player to computer. if you can than your computer is seen your player.

Yeah, the songs are in the wrong format for your player.There are some DRM-protected songs that allow you to play the song on your computer, but they won't actually play on an mp3 player even though they appear to transfer. If you download ALL of your songs in mp3 format, you will never have this problem.

-Tha Mp3 Doctor

Try to reboot your PC. Leave mp3 player off when start Sync (if button lights up this time).

Don't transfer playlists - only transfer individual songs

In your windows media you will see the device name listed..you have to make sure the device is under MTP mode..then click on the player and you will see all the songs...you can just right click on the songs and delete them..if you dont want the device to sync automatically you can click on sync and then click on the device name and click on sync setting..there you can modify if you want it to sync automatically..
Should you have any questions..let me know..
P.S.Please rate accordingly...
Thank You
