Guest NX5 Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 wot u mean drag album art across?? its not working on my sp5, i can't see album art on phone but se it on pc media player.. wot could be problem here? plz expalin step by step thankx <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have no problem with album art on the C550, I just drag the folder across to the phone and the art displays on WMP10 on the phone. Im guessing here but it may have something to do with hidden files on the pc. Make sure you have the show hidden files option enabled on your PC before you copy the folder to the phone.

Guest pd.ryder Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Has anyone seen the C550 review in Stuff magazine this month? Quote: "We were excited by the presence of WMP10 and support for protected WMA files but the process of loading it with tunes made us want to put it in an oven and watch it melt. Our review models had big problems syncing with WMP10 (and Napster To Go), although we have been assured that the pre-production Activesync problems have now been rectified." Mmm, reassured by who? Orange try to deny the existence of any problem or simply "don't support the feature". If they do acknowledge there's an issue, they direct the customer to MS for advice they know does not exist. Stuff goes on to say: "Having taken 3 years off my life expectancy trying to get two C550s to sync with three different PCs, I gave up and used drag-and-drop. Orange assures me that the Activesync difficulties have been sorted." Another mmm, a long wait......... :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pd.ryder Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Ok. Now I'm confused. I've opened WMP and asked it to check for updates. It's returned information stating it is the most up to date player (and it's components) and refuses to update. What now? Should I visit the MS site and just download WMP again? Can't see an alternative, so here goes..... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest s_cox_99 Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Didnt work for me I'm afraid. Exactly the same behaviour. And my wmp version is definately updated. So which version of activesync are the people who have it working using? Also have you installed the windows update for drm players available on the update site? (I have installed and activesync failed at both 3.8 and 4.1) Ok. Now I'm confused. I've opened WMP and asked it to check for updates.

Guest pd.ryder Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Got .3802 and ActiveSync4.1 on board now. I'll try a sync later today and post the result. I'm not going to hold my breath though.... Oh, and I'm using XPsp2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dronkula Posted December 28, 2005 Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 I've just tried it again with the new version of WMP10 (.3802) and it still doesn't work properly. It seems to sync the music over, but when you try and play DRM protected content, it just skips over it - and that's all I want it for - to sync over the DRM stuff that I've legally bought online from sites like MSN Music. I've got Activesync 4.1 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
