set the quality level for audio files copied to your phone. For more 

information, see the desktop Player Help.

•   The desktop version of Windows Media Player 10 is only available for 

computers running Windows XP. If you are not running Windows XP on your 

PC, use the Copy to CD or Device feature of Windows Media Player 9 Series

the desktop version of Windows Media Player 9 Series does not support 

automatic synchronization, synchronization of playlists, synchronization of 

album art, or synchronization of TV shows recorded by computers running 

Windows XP Media Center Edition.

•  For more information about the Copy to CD or Device feature, start the 

desktop version of Windows Media Player 9 Series, and then press F1.

Play media

To play media on your phone

Use the library to find and play songs, videos, and playlists that are stored 

on your phone or removable storage card.

1. 

If you are not on the Library screen, select Menu > Library.

2. 

If necessary, on the Library screen, select Menu > Library, and then 

select the library that you want to use (for example, Storage Card).

3. 

In most cases, Windows Media Player Mobile automatically updates 

the library. However, you can manually update the library to ensure 

that it contains new files that you recently copied to your phone or 

storage card. Select Menu > Update Library to manually update the 

library list.

4. 

Select a category (for example, My Music or My Playlists), select the 

item that you want to play (such as a song, album, or artist name), and 

then select Play.

Note 

 To play a file that is stored on your phone but is not in a library, on the Library 

screen, select Menu > Open File. Select the item that you want to play (such 

as a file or a folder), and select Play.
