I'm trying to sync playlists on my Windows Media Player 11 to my GoGear. I have added the playlists by dragging and dropping the playlists to the Sync list and also right clicking on the playlist and choosing to "add to sync list", and clicking the Start Sync buttong. It synchronizes but doesn't put the music on the player as playlists...it just puts them into individual folders by artist. Any suggestions??? Thank you for your help.
Have solved this problem on GoGear syncing with WMP 11 by going to options on the device itself, then go to the "settings" option, scroll down to "PC Connection Preferences", from here you will select the check box saying "MTP" then back out of options and connect your device and go back to your WMP 11 and drag your playlists to the syncing area and resync your device. You should then be able to see your playlists under the playlist option in music along with the "playlist on the go" playlist.
Hope this will help!

I've called Philips twice on this. The first time, they told me I could save a playlist to my desktop, then drag it to the Playlists folder. But this didn't work. When I called just now, they told me the only playlist I could make is the on-the-go one that you can do only on the unit itself. Lame.
I have the same issue. My work around is to copy MP3s into folders and drop them on the player. Selecting the folder will then play only the songs in that folder. Poor Person's playlist.
You cant do this on your computer you have to select a song on the player then press the playlist button on the top of the player a screen pops up "add to playlist on the go" hope this helps
A letter i received from the Phillips Consumer Care:
We understand that you were unable to sync the playlist you created to
your Flash audio player. Please be informed that this unit is unable
to support playlist created on the computer. The playlist must be
created on the device. Please click on the link below to access the
user's manual:

Please refer to page 10 for information on what buttons to push to add
or delete currently playing song to list. Please refer to page 17
which shows how to to view songs in list.
TO Alovercast: "Selecting the folder will then play only the songs in that folder." How is this accomplished? Playing one song in that folder via the Folders view does not play all in that folder. Play repeats on that one song selected. There is no All Songs/Shuffle All option at top of list as there is in the Music option. thx
I don't think that the SA3245 mp3 player is capable of syncing the playlist itself, only the songs. The only playlist you can make is the playlist on the go. I'm not sure how true this is. But it seems to be the same way on my Philips SA3245 player.

I have a philips GoGear SA3245/02. I have just the same problem. My son tried for me using WMP 11 in exactly the same way he moves playlists from his laptop to his Creative MP3 player, but no joy. The files moved over, but still the playlist menu on my player insisted there were no playlists.
How do I sort this out? (I have WMP 10 and am not up for installing MS Service Pack 2)
OMG i have the same problem with my Phillips SA3245/37. tried it all. even downloaded new software, searched online, and the manual was useless. I have come to believe too that this particular player (SA3245/37) will only let you have one playlist, the "playlist on the go" and you simply have to add your current songs to it. anyone out there know any different? maybe we should just call a Phillips tech and ask them!!
Hi
A particular mp3 album folder don´t show up in the LCD display. I´m using existing folders and dragging them usin Windows Explorer.
Thanks for help
I have a similar problem, i tried adding songs by the sync list, now all i get on all screens on my mp3 is " file format not supported " I cannot add anything or play anything.
I have the same problem. It's really annoying how Philips encourages us not to use Vista and Windows Media Player 11 to transfer files to their audio and video players.
i have the exact same problem. so i guess there's just one playlist? then philips shouldn't have put the hot button for PLAYLISTS if we can't put playlists!
So how did you make copy MP3's into folders and drop them on the player?
