View Full Version : Help! Can't sync music content to storage card in Vista!

I upgraded to Vista (obviously), and now in WMP I can no longer see the Storage Card under the list of syncable devices. I see the Q (with a whopping 26mb free space), so I know that it's connected properly. Also, I can see the Storage Card through Windows Explorer, so I know that Vista sees it.

BTW, I use Yahoo Unlimited, so I can't just copy the files to the storage card - I have to sync. I have the same problem in the Yahoo application - I can see the Q, but not the Storage Card.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

I found only one thing that would work - disabling the "Advanced Network Options" as described here:

It's slow as molassas, but I don't add songs too often, so I leave it on unless I am loading up some new songs. There has to be a better solution!

There is now a hotfix for this:

I haven't tried it out yet, though.

I gave it a try, and it works as expected now. Only took 6 weeks!

I would have guessed that this was firewall related. Anyway, glad you got it running.
