Connectivity Issue

mikejodhan — Fri, 01 Jun 2012 01:40:13 GMT

My pc companion recognizes the arc s, but it doesnt allow me to add/delete music

I switched to mass storage, and it allowed me to add my new songs...around 500mb of mp3 files

I then went to my arc s , and the music wasnt there, except for the default songs.
This has happened on both of my computerss, where i tried to transfer music
Why is my music not showing????
Also, from PC, i cannot delete pictures and also add
Please help me on this one, as i mainly use my phone for music :$
Oh, my memory card still has space remaining....so it isnt full

go to settings -> applications -> manage applications -> all -> music -> clear data -> restart your phone and check again, and the files are mp3s not mp4s correct?

Install Google Music and mobo player and see if they can find the music files

i see the music files in mobo player (google music isnt available in my country).
the files in mobo player DO NOT have the mp3 music not next to them, BUT, they have a page with some writing ( like a word document logo) next to them
But on my computer, i can play the music through the micro usb

I'm not going to comment on the legal/illegal aspect on how you got them.

I would suggest you change the format, on your computer use formatfactory (its free) and even if you think or they are mp3 change them to mp3.
