> W800i transfer of MP3 and playback problem
Bookmark topic
Got my W800i today and I installed Disc2phone on my PC and then tried to transfer across some music. I can only get maximum of 2 tracks across, tried several times and can't understand why. Deleted them and thought I'd try fresh, now when I select Walkman from the W800i I get the OPEN menu and phone locks up and only way I can get it back to life is by removing the battery.
Any ideas? Do I need to format the memory card?

Stopped it locking up now and I formatted the card using my card reader. Any tips on using Disc2phone?

Heaps of people having this problem. Tracks disappear even though they seem to have been saved. I googled the problem and found a heap of sites discussing this. A lot of people have tried various things.
One solution someone came up with was...
"Before you use the software and plug your phone in with the data cable make sure you go to the walkman, play a song and then stop it but keep it on that.
Then transfer your songs. After you have done that, before you remove the cable use the "safely remove hardware" button and stop the services."
I tried this and it worked! Before, I'd lose all but one or two tracks, but now I can transfer 20 at a time and don't lose any. It may help when you disconnect the phone to disconnect the USB end of the cable first.
I know this may not work for everyone but anything's worth a try...

I bypass disc to phone now, and transfer manually, then I play them before using the "safely remove hardware" button bottom right of your pc, 99% of the time doesn't mess up, same with videos.

Hmm... I think a cheap an effective solution would be to get a card reader and transfer using that? It should be much faster too. Just my two cents worth. =)
