Sync with Windows Media player.. change music folder - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hi,
When i setup Windows Media player to sync with my SDcard it always sync with the folder \music
I can't find a way to change to the music folder below where all mp3 files should be for the player in the phone to find them..
Its not so fun to manualy copy everytime you have synced.
Anyone that have idea how to change what folder you sync too?

Are you saying that it copies to the music in
My Device/music
or
My Device/storage card/music
Where exactly do you want your songs placed?

It copies all files to My Device/storage card/music
I want it in My Device/storage card/My documents/my music
then the phone could find them without having to copy manualy

When syncing with WMP, it's see's the phone as a media player and will always sync to the default music location
AKA, My Device/storage card/music
Every WinMo phone I have ever used never had a problem finding music when located in this location.
What media player are you using, the program may not be looking in the correct location for your songs.

Are playlists cached anywhere?

Can't work this one out and i've searched through every folder I can find on the phone.
I noticed some old playlists were still showing in the audio manager so as I keep all music on storage card i just deleted the playlists out of playlist folder and deleted all the music so I could resync from WMP 11
Although all the music is now not shown in the audio manager all tracks in now playing and all the playlists are still listed (although not clickable and playable as they aren't on the storage card). Are the now playing and playlists cached anywhere in a temp folder which i've missed?

Sync Media Player with WMP11

I'm getting quite frustrated at the process for syncing the HTC Desire with my Windows Media Player library
I can set it up first time, to sync some of my WMP playlists automatically, and it will copy all the music to the phone just fine.
However, on the phone, the playlists I chose to sync don't appear in the playlists tab on the music player.
I have to copy the playlist files to the SD card
This would be OK if its only the once. However, whenever I update the playlists on my computer (quite often), I have to delete the playlists from the phone, unplug for it to recognise, replug and reput the updated playlists on! It's driving me mad...
Is there anything I should be doing instead? eg my old Blackberry had 'Blackberry Music Sync' which did all this automatically for me. Any decent alternatives out there?
I'm guessing the problem is that the playlists from WMP will be in its own playlist format. I think the music player only supports .m3u . Maybe try using another application, songbird with the folder sync addon works quite well!

DoubleTwist AirSync error

I had a folder on my sd card called Music. I had dumped a bunch of music into that folder and was using that to play my music as needed....DoubleTwist came out with the latest OTA sync (AirSync), I deleted that folder with the thought that my playlist in DoubleTwist would sync to my EVO and my music would be back.
After a sync, I get an error about my memory card not being seen or something like that....what would cause this? My card is fine but I have a feeling this has to do with me deleting that previous music directory. What directory does DT use?

Galaxy Nexus Music Sync

Hey guys. Im gonna buy a vzw gnex tomorrow and will be putting my music on it. Problem is, I don't want to have to manually transfer the song files back and forth from computer to phone (or vice-versa) every time I buy a new song. Is there a way that process can be automated, like syncing?
Thanks
google music?
you can sync specific folders on your computer to the cloud storage
you can access it via stream or have the option to download it to your phone

Yeah I was going to use the stock music app. So I can set up the "folder" as the itunes music folder on my mac and whenever a new song is added my phone will download it? And the option to download, where can I find that?
idk how it works with mac
i created a folder named "music" on my laptop and chose it to sync to my google music account
when you open the google music app it displays all the songs in that folder...you can stream it via wifi or data
as far as i know, you have to download the each song manually..i dont believe there is a way to sync them all directly to your phone storage
edit: you can add them all to a playlist then select "keep on device"
a less confusing way may be to set up a dropbox folder (and name it "music) on your computer and then download the dropbox app on your phone
then you can access the songs through the app and download them that way..its less confusing then google music
the benefit of google music is that its stored in the cloud and can be streamed (so you can listen to them whenever you want and yet you save space)

thank you
Yes you can tell it to sync your iTunes folder. That's actually the default option when you install the Google Music uploader on OSX.

[Q] Music playlists dissapear after reboot

Hi, I use Windows Media Player to sync music. After rebooting the phone, neither Walkman or PlayerPro list my playlists, I have to resync through WMP for the playlists to appear. Does anyone else have this problem? Or if you don't, what program do you use for syncing music from your computer (not from cloud services)?
