I have a number of media files that do not show up in the media library despite being on the sd card and can be played on my laptop from the sd card through the phone.
Any ideas?
Exchange phone only reads some tracks on two SD cards.
Is it a format and reload all y music? I hope not.

When we set up the active sync on windows vista, the programm creates a shortcut to a folder named "My dox on HTC2". This folder on the phone is resident in the main memory. And this is not good
I'd like to have all my 2GB files (excel, word, Acrobat, power point) and my 7GB Musics and movies to automatically sync in the 16 GB SD Card bought for this simple reason.
How to setup the programm to move and sync the files in the SD including all the messages, notes, contacts and bla bla bla.
I don't know why but with my old Nokia E71 I needed to check a box to sync the files in the sd card.
I have a big problem with my Trinity...
I've flashed it with a WM6.5 ROM (dont remember which, just that the rar is named WM_06.5.21857.rar) and I'm an active user of the sync features, both ActiveSync and the sync in Windows Media Player.
The problem is when I try to sync music to it through WMP12 (I've got Windows Se7en) it transfers a couple of the songs and then stops. No error message or anything... And there is plenty of space left for the music on the miniSD...
And I cant transfer the files manually as I've made an automatic playlist with a couple of rules and a 200mb limit, so I never have the same music on the phone...
Has anyone of you had this problem before and how did you solve it?
Cant find any information about it anywhere on the net (spent the last 3 hours googleing for a solution)...
All help is appreciated!

same problem here - use WM5Storage as workaround
I experienced the same problem.
Now I use WM5 Storage on my phone to map the microSD card directly to my PC (as if it was in a card reader), instead of via Windows Mobile Device Centre.
With this set-up the sync is much faster and does not stop after a couple of songs.
Thanks! Never thought of that :O
Will try that to se if it works smoother
EDIT! Just noticed that WM5 Storage wasn't in this ROM, but will try Card Export
EDITEDIT! It worked VERY well using Card Export
Music folder structure on SD card
Do you also have your music synced into the microSD/Music folder?
In my case I can either tell WMP12 to not set up any folder structure, I which case all my mp3s get simply dumped in the microSD root.
Alternatively, I can have WMP to create a folder structure, in which case I end up with getting Music/Artist name/Album name, which is more than useless.
I'd prefer Music/Album name.
ANybody knows how to get this?
i made some changes online to my photos on picasa and deleted some directories but they are still appearing on my phone.. does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
If I recall I just turned my phone off and when the media scanner checks they shouldn't appear any more.
Actually unless I'm bonkers, when you mount your SD card I think it forces the phone to do a media scan when you unmount your SD card from Mass Storage mode.
Hello,
I was wondering if there is an alternative to sync songs from my itunes to the external SD card on my phone. I am using Airsync with limited success. The problem I am having is that it hardly connects with my Mac. I remember finding an alternative program that I used on the Windows side but canot remember the name of the program. If anyone has suggestions for an alternative way to sync music to the external SD card from iTunes playlist please list them.
Thanks,
I have an extensive mp3 collection and I'd like to sync to my phone when I plug in USB. On my RAZR, I could use Musicbee, which synched the songs by USB complete with album art, directly to the Music folder on my external SD. But the S5 connects to my PC as a phone, rather than individual drives. I can sync the music to the external SD, but it filters to a series of nested folders relating to my PC username.

Two ways, depending on your current setup. I have my collection stored in Dropbox and I just use dropsync which is essentially a selective sync to mirror my Dropbox music folder on my SD card.
The other way, and admittedly something of a pain in the ass, would be just to physically mount your microSD using an adapter, in your laptop, and then use a desktop sync program.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have ~30GB music, and don't really feel like paying for more Dropbox storage
I've been transferring to the SD directly, but it's a pain and would rather just have it sync automatically.
Any other suggestions out there?
