    Copy to mp3 player
    « on: September 03, 2008, 04:33:20 AM »
    Hi guys, I have an mp3 player and I'd like to copy some files to my mp3 player. It is a normal mp3 player (not an iPod  :P) and it like an usb stick. The only problem is, in my computer I don't see a drive letter assigned to the player, but only a name (sansa bla bla mp3 player, it's a mp3 player from sandisk).
    Which path should I use to copy my files to?
    Everybody knows you can't click here. But I know you will try it :)

    What happens when you double click the name in My Computer?

    It should be just like moving files in and out of a Flash Drive. Drag and Drop. Copy and Paste.

      Here is a screenshot of my My Computer:


      You will notice there is a '(E:)' next to my Memory Stick Name. That would be the drive letter.

      Copying files to it should be something like this:
      Code: [Select]
      copy "C:\documents and settings\username\desktop\picture.jpg" "E:\picturefolder"

          the problem is your device is set to use MIP (multimedia interactive player) standard its set there by default, the new version of windows media player ,version 11 allows you to recognize MIP , but thats by default, look under the USB setting by default its Auto and set for MIP , there should be two or three MSC mode MIP mode and MTP mode play around with them till you see a drive letter

            Thanks for the response, the solution was indeed configuring usb player to another modus, :-)

            Thanks for your help guys :)
