Windows 10: How can I sync the music in my Windows 11 Media Player to another device?

I cannot find a sync option anywhere. When I connect my MP3 player, it charges fine but it doesn't show up automatically in the Media Player like it used to on my old PC.

Windows Media Player 11 in June

Although we have to wait for the new Microsoft Vista OS, new version of Windows Media Player 11 will be available before the end of June. The XP version won't have all the features of its Vista successor, but the company won't say which features will be excluded. I guess we have to wait for a public test version and see what's included. With the new media player, consumers will be able to "reverse sync," meaning they can send content from a digital device to a PC. Another change is the ability to alter protected music and video files to change their quality level. With the new software, protected Windows Media files can be converted to smaller file sizes for playback on mobile devices. The biggest no go is that Windows Media Player 11 won't allow conversion of purchased Windows Media Songs into Apple iPods. So songs bought from a Windows Media store still won't play on the iPod.

Windows Media Player to only sync music

Hi,

We'd like to ask the following to determine which pictures are syncing:

• Have you sorted Windows Media Player to show Music only by clicking the
  File tab, then select Manage Libraries and selecting
  Music?
  
• Are you manually syncing files by dragging music tracks from the Windows Media Player music list on your PC to your Sync list pane, and click on
  Start sync at the top of the screen only when all the tracks you want have been added or are you automatically syncing by clicking on the
  Finish button?

 

Syncing Windows Media Player

After following the directions given by the ActiveSync software I am unable to sync my Media Player on my phone with the Windows Media Player on my computer. Any ideas?

These instructions don't work:

Note Synchronizing music, video, and pictures is available only on Windows mobile powered devices running Windows Mobile Version 5.0 software or higher.

If you want to take your music or other digital media with you, ActiveSync works with Windows Media Player to synchronize music, video, and pictures with your device.

Other than selecting the Media information type in ActiveSync to be synchronized, all media synchronization settings must be set in Windows Media Player. Before media can be synchronized, do the following:

• Install Windows Media Player Version 10 or higher.
• Connect your mobile device to the PC with a USB cable. If the device is also connected using Bluetooth or infrared, you must end that connection before media can be synchronized.
  
• Insert a 32 MB or larger storage card in your mobile device.
• Set up a sync partnership between the storage card and Windows Media Player.
