Sync your Nokia with Windows Media Player

Posted in Handsets, Music, Nokia 5800 XpressMusic by user on March 20th, 2009

Open Nokia Music (you download it from music.nokia.ie) and select the ‘my music’ tab.

Drag any music you have on your computer into ‘my music’. Don’t click the option that lets Nokia Music search your computer for music because it could take your iTunes in the wrong format.

When you drag your music into ‘my music’ it will automatically sync it with your windows media player.

Open Windows Media Player

Connect your handset to the computer via USB and select Media Transfer on your handset, (It works when you select PC Suite too)

When your phone is connected a sync tab will appear along the top of Windows Media Player. Click on this tab.

When you click it a sidebar will appear that says ‘drag items here’

Select all the tunes you want to put on your phone and drag them into the sidebar.

When you’re finished selecting your music click ‘start sync’ (at the bottom)

A window will then appear with the status of the sync. (It could take up to an hour if your putting on loads of music).

When it’s finished syncing, disconnect your handset and open your music player (on the handset)

Go to options and select refresh and your music player will find your music!
