Music transfer? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General

Hi Guys,
Loving my transfer from iphone to the Gnote, i find android impressive but i have a question, how can i transfer music to my Gnote? I have tried Kies but i can only move 1 song at a time.......totally leborious!!
Help!!!!

Just drag the files to the sd card in mass storage mode

Or maybe create a playlist in windows media player and then import it using keis?

In the android world, its very simple... Forget about Kies.
1. Connect your phone to your PC using the USB Cable.
2. Mount your SD card so that your SD card appears as a D: or E: or any other drive in the My Computer section of your PC.
3. Copy all your songs to the SD card. Create a "Songs" folder if you like.
4. "Safely remove" your device / Unmount the SD Card.
5. Enjoy your music on your Android Phone.
By the way, you can do this on any PCs. So, if you have some songs on your laptop & not on your desktop, you can connect to the laptop & still be able to transfer your songs from there. You don't need Kies... or other softwares. It works very much like a pen drive really...

i just create a playlist in windows media player and sync that playlist. but for some reason, the playlist wont appear in my note. when i did it with my old atrix, the playlist would appear in the music player.

slow mtp
Hello everyone,
just wondering if anyone else is experience pretty slow file transfer speeds? I'm getting it both with Kies, and with drag and drop (on my macbook). I'm just putting about 29GB of music straight onto the SD card. It's a class 4, so nothing special, but the whole thing seems to take quite a long time. Maybe I'm just too used to filling up a usb stick in seconds, but I'm sure the SGS was faster in this front.

If you are simply transferring files, you are better off putting the Note into mass storage mode: Menu > Settings > Wireless And Network > USB utilities it should be faster that way.

There is a less annoying way to do this.
Plug the GNote into a USB port.
Open the notification bar and touch the USB notification line.
Sends you to the same place but you don't have to tunnel through options.

media player won't recognise storage card

Hi
I have just bought a san disk 2gb mini sd card for my mini s and after a few teething problems I can put items onto it.
I thought brilliant so i loaded on 300 of my fav songs. For some reason windows media player when updating the library notices the files although it doesn't add them to the library so I can't play a list of songs I can play one and then what ever is in the library.
The library only adds from "my deivce" and not from the storage card.
Can someone help me as I really like my music and can't listen to it properly because of a fault.
If not can anyone suggest a music player that works on the mini s/wizard.
Yes people are having a problem with 2gb cards on the wizard - there seems to be a bug.
Some people find it works ok if over half full - is yours?
Second people reporting success after reformatting the card on the device (backup everything on the card before you do this) use storage tools or my fav sktools
Hope it works - i love my music too!
Microsft needs to pay for all the high blood pressure that Windows Mobile devices cause.
1)Don't format your 2GB card to FAT32. Use FAT. It appears the PPC is still living in the 80's. If you use FAT32 it might appear to work fine but everynow and then you'll get currupted files.
2) Get Windows Media Player 11. You can then happily disable the aweful media sync feature in activestink 4.x. WMP11 will recognize your card as long as your PPC is synced.
3) I don't have this problem in WMP11 but in WMP10 if your WMP in your PPC is open, it might not sync your new playlist even though it appears to be doing so.
It appears Bill and the boys at MS are taking mobile media seriously even though they are a decade late. But I'm optimistic :wink:
Does not really solve your problem as such, but Media Player is a real dog and a waste of time IMO. Get TCPMP for video (the best and free) and a good music player like Mort, GSplayer or Pocket Player.
I'm having the same problem. I'm using WMP11 and it does not see my 2 gig SD card. I used this set up before with WMP10 and it would always see my SDcard. Ant help on this would be great. It I just plug my sdcard directly into the computer then WMP11 sees it.
Thanks

Anyone success with 2G Card in FAT32 sync with MediaPlayer 11?
Same Problem
I have a 1GB miniSD card in my Cingular 8525, and windows mobile Media player fails to load any of the songs that are on the storage card into the media library. I CAN play any of the songs one at a time. It's just that the library won't load or recognize the files.
I've tried everything. I've selected "update libary" , I've sync with activesynk...
I don't think this is a size issue. I've tried a few files, I've tried many files.
I don't think this is a storage size issue, as you guys are having the problem with 2GB SD cards, and I'm having the problem with 1GB miniSD cards.
I think this is probably a Media player bug. Do any of the other media players support a library like function?
i have a 512mb card and i don't have WMP11 working either. i am starting to think that it is a activesyc 4.5 beta problem but now sure. also i noticed that my new contacts are not in outlook either. it says it has synced them but when i open outlook on my pc they are not there. oddly enough back to music i can sync music through yahoo music engine perfectly. it shows my storage card and my device.
I have the same problem. I'm using a Cingular 8525 with a 2GB micro sd card, WMM, and WM11. This worked for me: create a playlist in WM11 and sync to 8525. Then, using WMM, use the open file command under menu to find the file you created (mine is located in: file system/storage card/playlist) and open it as a playlist.
It didn't solve the real problem, but at least you can play more than one song at a time.
I hope this helps .
P.S.
I see little red asterisk on the storage card folders in WMM, what do they mean?

okay this is what I have tried with no success in both the test 3.3 rom and the cingular 3.3 rom.
i have deleted all those folders /music /msmdata /wdrm.
I have even formated(slow and fast) the SD card from sk tools, and I have gone into the windows registry(pc) and deleted all sync devices.
no matter what I do I cannot see my storage card in wmp11 in windows vista. on either my hermes or my wizard.
if anyone can help me out i would really appreciate it.
I'm the same, can't find my storage card anywhere! Help!
I had the same problem with my 2 gig corsair... What i did for mine to work for me is I deleted everything on the card than instead of just puting files on the card i made folders(my music, my videos, programs)... Sounds crazy but i haven't had problems ever since.
go http://www.eggheadcafe.com/software/aspnet/28840468/wmp11-and-windows-mobile.aspx and you'll be satisfied.
It works for me and I am quite sure it will work for all of you.

OMG! Thank you so very much Leblan. This worked for me too. I had to delete my music folder, so I lost all my sync music. But who cares, now wmp is reading my storage card again!
thank you
I have an 8525 that did the same thing. Here is what worked for me.
Remove the Micro-SD card. Open Media player and click on menu. Then click on Library. Click on menu again and select the "update Library". Let it run and find the updates. After it completes close Media Player and insert the SD card in the slot. Now open Media player again and click on Menu. Click on Library, click on menu again, click on "Update Library" and let it run. It should see the card files and add them to the library. After it completes open the menu again open the library and look for the Storage card. It should now show up with all of your songs. (mine has 346 songs and it found them all).
how to fix this problem.
On the storage card, delete the following file Storage Card\MSMETADATA\XMEMediaLibrary.mlb You may have to tap & hold in the File Manager window on a blank area and choose "Show All Files" in order to see this folder. If this XMEMedialibrary.mlb isnt in that folder, just delete the whole folder, that worked for me. Also delete the file: Mobile Device\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Player\XMEMediaLibrary.mlb

How to transfer/watch movies on HTC Touch HD

How do you transfer a movie to the Touch HD and get it to play?
I've got an .avi movie.
1h 32m
647MB
720 x 576
192 kbps
I've tried Syncing it using Windows Media 10.
Only about 5kbs transfers to the phone!?
I've tried copy & pasting via USB but nothing seems to happen.
Looks like it's transfering but taking an age and the progress bar doesn't move!!!
Is the file too big? Does the file have to be converted to another format?
Smaller .avi files play.
Any help here please?!
What playback software are you using?
Hi
When you connect your phone you usually have an option to do only a file transfer and not a sync.
I suggest you select that , then copy and paste your movie file to your microSD card.
I suppose its slow because the phone is syncing and transfering the file at the same time.
Hope This Helps
Jay
YUP agreed. All you do is select data transfer after connecting your phone via USB to your computer. Then go to my computer go to mobile device go to storage card then either drag and drop or copy and paste.
You can use a CardReader: in my opinion it is better solution if you must move big files.
D'rath
Big Thanks to everyone! It was doing my head in!!!
Waiting for your help, I continued to play around with the Touch HD.
Seems that when you connect the HTC Touch HD to the PC via USB, there's an option to choose between...
ActiveSync
Disk Drive
Internet Sharing.
When I tried to look at Mobile Device in My Computer (on the PC), I thought I'd somehow wiped the storage card . Looking again, I'd somehow chosen the Disk Drive option, and then in My Computer, another drive - Removable Disc (L) appeared holding my Touch HD storage card data.
I copy & pasted the movie (.avi) files from my PC hd to the (L) drive and the files transfered in the usual way.
Thanks again to all who took time out to advise. Hope my little guide can also help folk in a similar position!

hook it up via usb to your laptop, pull down the notification bar, hit the usb notification, press mount... after that it should show up as a removable drive in your "my computer" folder... typically windows also uses the autoplay feature so that you can choose what you want to do with the mounted sd card

just drag and drop.how do the files get to the right places.my sd card has partitioned to run a Hero Rom
the phone automatically searches for both music and pictures in your sd card.. you can drag and drop and store them wherever you want... if you're OCD like me, put pictures in the DCIM folder which is where pictures are stored after you take them with the camera or camcorder application... music can pretty much go anywhere

help please

i have a sandisk 16 gb microsd
my hd2 is in disk drive mode
i want to copy music to my hd2
this is the problem every time i try i can play 3 or 4 number from an album , the rest is unreadable or something like that
i tried mp3,wmv files
nothing helped
my card is fat32 formated
format through pc and hd2
nothing helped
try using activesync mode
settings->menu->all settings->connections->usb to pc->active sync
then go to my computer find your phone go to storage card and copy the files, perhaps this will make a difference.
The way I copy media files is by connecting via ActiveSync as jfmckenna says, then using Windows Media Player on the PC to sync my media files. This is easy if you use Windows Media Player as your main player on the PC.
After connecting your HD2 via ActiveSync, just whack up Windows Media Player and click on the 'Sync' tab near the top of the program, then just drag your music/media from the library on your computer to the 'Sync' column.
If you have files which aren't already in the library, just drag them from Windows Explorer into the library of Windows Media Player. The best bit is usually Windows Media Player will convert the file on the fly when syncing if the media file isn't compatible with your phone.
Hope this helps!!
personally i've had nothing but trouble using active sync or media player to copy music. the only way i transfer it now is by connecting in hard disk mode then drag and drop directly.
just goes to show what works for one doesn't for others.

[Q] Photo & Video Transfer

When I transfer my Pics and Videos in camera mode, Windows wants to transfer my whole SD card, and wont transfer the videos I've taken. Any ideas why?
I'm using auto-play transfer on Windows,

I am pretty sure within windows - while the transfer is happening, there is a way to click on the transfer icon and change the parameters of what is transfered - but the way i remember it, if the transfer is quick, you can't get to these options.
For me, i don't ever use camera mode. I use Media mode, then click on the phone under my computer and browse to the DCIM folder (on card, or phone) and move files manually. But i usually don't even do that. I let dropbox sync it all automatically. It is free and i don't lose anything because i forget to transfer.
I have the auto play settings all set up. It seems to only do this with android. My wife's iPhone and our camera transfer right.
I like the way windows renames the files and puts them in dated folders.
