How long does it take to search for songs on a
memory card?
Search time depends on the size of the memory card,
how many songs it holds, and how much information
each song has. Searching a card can take anywhere from
15 seconds to 5 minutes.
Why is there a playlist called *ringertones?
This playlist contains the preloaded ringtones for
your phone (so the music player does not play them with
the rest of your music). You can edit the ringertones
playlist to add new ringtones, but you cannot remove or
rename it.
Why can’t I see all my songs in different categories
(artist, album, genre)?
When you load a song, information about the artist,
album, and genre is loaded into your music player’s
Artists, Albums, and Genres folders. Sometimes this
information is not available, so your phone loads the song
as Unknown and that song does not appear in the folder.
However, all songs are listed in the Songs folder.

Why doesn’t my computer recognize the phone’s

Your computer may be unable to recognize a removable
memory card that was formatted by the phone. When
the computer prompts: “Do you want to reformat?” Click
“Yes” to continue. Be aware that formatting the memory
card erases all content on the card.
