Reg Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Hello, Here is a question(s) that I would really appreciate answers to or advise on. First: New Explorer/Sync. I have downloaded songs from my iTunes, with the embedded meta data on an 8gb flash drive. -- does this USB flash drive HAVE to be formatted FAT32? My songs are all arranged as: Title, Artist and Genre. There are many cases where one Artist may have several songs listed. When I say play Artist X, will all tracks appear? Can one song be selected or will it play all the songs by that Artist? Can I embed track numbers? This system seems all well and good if you only have one song per Artist. Does putting them in an album help somehow? And whats the diff between an album and a folder to Sync?? Any insight would be helpful, Thanks, Reg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadMaxetc Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 1) Yes, FAT or FAT32. 2) Yes, when you say play Artist X, all songs by that artist will play. 3) If you only want a specific song, do as stated above. "Play Song X". When you press the SYNC button, you should see the options. 4) SYNC works off the meta data, so folders don't matter, they just help so you can browse easier. Also file names don't mater ether (as long as there are no funky characters.) You could name the files, Song1.mp3, Song2.mp3, etc... as long as the embedded meta data is correct, SYNC will not care. Once you have the drive formatted and working, you will get the hang of it. Remember, SYNC can't read your mind so you have to give it info. johnsonplaid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
