Guzzler3, you say:
This won't work if I use my Windows 7 laptop?
Thank you! I have a related question you might have something to say about. I can try using my Windows 7 laptop. The MP3s are stored on machines on my wireless network that run Windows XP. I can access those files over the network from the Windows 7 machine. Do you think this will work, or do I have to copy the files to the Windows 7 machine's HD?I don't have a W7 system anymore. Try it out on your W7 system and report back. Theoretically it should till work.
I've never dealt with "libraries" before. I just started checking it out. I'm first off going to try to set it up using the network connection. One reason is I am not right now in the habit of using this Windows 7 laptop very frequently. I may upgrade one of my Windows XP laptops to Windows 7.You can try... But libraries and network shares can be troublesome. Personally I would just copy them down to the W7 machine to get them to the phone. Leave copies on the network for 'backup' purposes.
Well, I'm not understanding this, but I think a few words from you will clarify it. When you sync, what happens? Does your phone play data right off the Windows 8 machine (i.e by wifi), or does it actually copy the data from the Windows 8 machine to it's own storage, playable later, I presume, offline, and having the ability to stop play, shut down the phone and later boot the phone and resume from the previous stop point?
