It is very easy to do. When you are in Sync mode in Windows Media Player just drag and drop the name of your playlist to the player. Click Sync.

Jess, This task is a slam dunk with Fuze. I barely know how to run my computer, but transfering my playlists was instantly easy. Buy it. bill

Jess, I agree with the karibbeangirl, I had have no trouble whatsoever synching specific playlists from WMP11 (or 10) to my Fuze. I have had other problems with subscription services for a while, but no troubles at all with WMP, simply by synching in Microsoft's recommended windows and manner.

Patricia, Not sure as I only use this for downloading overdrive audiobooks from my library and they automatically get placed either in nonfiction or fiction under the genre button or in unkown. I have not created my own playlist for this. I know there is a section that stores all your songs as I have seen it on my walkman. I would suggest going somewhere that you can check this out and play with all the features for a bit in a store first such as Best where they have display units out if you can. I know Best Buy displays these sony walkman's out on dispaly. For more info check out the reviews for this on Amazon.com and Best Buy.com and you may find what you are looking for. Hope this helps.

I used to convert all my .wma files to .mp3 using Windows Media Player. Apparently, the Microsoft gods have now eliminated that feature. I do own NERO 12 but I'm a novice NERO user. I did a little research (before writing this response) using GOOGLE and NERO 12 is indeed supposed to be able to do this conversion, according to some users. I would suggest you ask someone with more experience. I bought NERO because I used to use a stripped down version of ROXIO. Recently, I had to reload my WINDOWS 7 OS and all of a sudden ROXIO would not work with the reinstalled WINDOWS 7. Hmmm? Go figure. That's why I went to NERO. Still learning NERO. Sorry can't be of more help. As an aside, these media packages (ROXIO and NERO, and others) have gotten too "bloated". They try to do too much. Users get lost easily. We just want the basic stuff, done cheaply. I'll climb down from my soap box now.

How ever you can drop and drag your music. I buy tunes from amazon then export them to windows where I can sync the Sandisk and drag the music I want to it.

Hey Deanna, I purchased this item on Sept 9th, and I am still using it. I am happy to share with you my experiences thru which you will find the answers to your questions. Firstly, I would care to let you know why I purchased this item. I love to listen to my favorites musics on the go. I had used transmitters of the other so-called brands, and ended up using a tape adapter, but I was not satisfied because they died earlier. So, I purchased this device. Secondly, I tell you the good things about it. Whatever channel you choose, the transmission is 100% clear with no intercession with the others. The transmission goes widely to a point that another car can stick on your musics with no interruption. It reads everything mentioned, and even a flash drive. It plays alphabetically, so you can choose what music must be played first by naming the music with an A...or a number 1..2..3... I can't tell about the MP4, because I don't have any file in that format. Overall, I would just suggest that you give it try...and then...tell me whether or not my answer was reasonable to you. Thanks!

I have had no problem creating a playlist in windows media player 11 and copying it to the Sansa player from Windows Media player. That is the only way I found to get a playlist. You can't create it from the Sansa player

You can transfer the music that you have imported into the Windows Media Player from the CD. How to transfer music: 1) Start Windows Explorer 2) Copy and paste the music data of the corresponding to WALKMAN's music folder * Digital Rights Management content (DRM) can not be imported in Windows Media Player.

I am having problems getting songs to load from Windows Media to this card. Is there some sort of conversion needed to have this work in my Sansa Fuze?

If you want to put together a playlist, what I do is a look in the device itself for each song I want to add to the playlist and then I press the bottom part of the control pad and then press the second option option there: "Add to playlist," and then press the center pad and that's it. Not difficult at all! I couldn't find a way to do it in the computer and then transfer it to the mp3. Good luck!

While I have not used this feature, I think that you can make your own playlists. You would use iTunes to create the playlists I believe. But, my adult children have many playlists so it must be possible.

The manual says that you can synchronize playlists created with Windows Media Player 10/11 but I have never tried this. Another option is to create a folder for each playlist as the iAudio 9+ has the ability to play only from a folder. I would download the user manual before buying it to make sure the player will do what you need it to do.

You can have it organized into folders, or just a long list. You can put songs into playlist for quick play. (That's what I suggest)

I have thousands of songs on my WMP 11, can't I just use that to sync? And if I have to "import" all of it to Zune's software, will it still be on my WMP too?

So based on replies so far, "yes definitely" and "no it does not" :) I wish I knew the answer as I'm looking to purchase this but it needs to be able to support syncing Windows Media playlists.

WalkmanMPT worked just perfectly on my NWZ-E344 to satisfactorily create playlists, agree with Boldwyn amazing that new Sony's software not even imports playlists! I struggled over 2 hours to figure how to successfully sync the playlists using Windows Media Player 11 with the device... whenever I sync'd the device in, it just only copied the files and didn't create anything but folders not playlists, that's was exactly what I didn't want. Thank you all.

If you're talking about from one drive to another. Copy works. No need for special tools. But, consider exporting your important playlists to the XML format (under File maybe on windows? not sure). that way when you move things you can re-import them and not lose anything.There is a technote on Apple's site about moving windows itunes files around.(trimmed because it's huge) http://tr.im/m4AkMore info there if you search for (moving iTunes files on Windows computers)Also, before you do the copy, be sure to deregister the old PC. It's under the Advanced menu I think. Otherwise it'll take up one of your 5 registrations for any DRM music you still have. If you're talking about from one drive to another. Copy works.

How do you exactly copy the playlist over? I have WMP11. Tried using Sync, songs got transfered but not playlist. Then I tried copying the playlist file .wpl manually on to the device, and it still doesn't recognize the playlist. Not sure what I am doing wrong?------------Never mind. I figured it out - I was in MSC mode. Switched to MTP mode and everything works.
