Close the auto play window, if it appears, by clicking [Cancel] or the Close icon.

If you click [Finish] instead of [Cancel], the entire library data of Windows Media Player is automatically copied to the player. If the library data size is larger than the available storage space on the player, the copy process will not start.

You can open the [Device Setup] window at any time. To open it, right-click [WALKMAN] on the left side of the Windows Media Player window, and then click [Set Up Sync].

Click the [Sync] tab on the Windows Media Player window.

Drag-and-drop the desired songs to the Sync List on the right side of the window.

The songs are added to the Sync List.

Click [Start Sync] to start synchronization.

When synchronization is complete, a message confirming you can disconnect the player appears on the Sync List. After completion, close Windows Media Player, and disconnect the player from the computer.
