Help! Change WMP file structure sync

sonus · 03-12-2008, 08:16 PM

How do I change the folder that my pictures are synced to?

I'm not a Zune owner, but I figured if anyone could help it would be you guys. I sync my the media onto my Windows Mobile phone's SD card via WMP11. Problem is WMP11 syncs my pictures directly to the folder "Pictures". I need it to sync the pictures to "DCIM\Media100\".

I know this is kinda OT, but I'm a forum member over at XDA-Developers and they aren't Windows Media Player specialists like you guys. I really need help as my phone's photo album software won't read pics in the Pictures folder (I already tried editing just about every registry entry on my phone to get that working w/o any luck).

I've never really tried on a phone or a Zune, but I have tried syncing with my zen. Have you looked through the options for sync folders?
If they show sync folders, just change them to what you want.

Personally, when I did it, I didnt come out to well.

I had to delete anything that was on my WMP library that didnt want syncing to my zen. I no longer use it to sync.

Thread moved. Anyway, are there any other folders there? When you go to sync list, it should let you add it to the folder you want if you click on it.

If you know where your pictures are, than you can just plug the SD card into your computer (assuming you have a card reader) and then copy the pictures directly from the folder, to where you want them on the SD card. When WMP syncs pictures. It doesn't do anything but copy them from your computer to your device, which is why you can do this.
