Syncing playlist error message

[cozzy]

Hi,
I have MMA pro version and i'm trying to get a playlist from MMW to MMA (using USB cable) but when i try i get this error message for every song in the list:
File?:\Music\Funk & Soul ... .mp3 is inaccessible
My music for MMW is on an external hard drive but isn't plugged in when i'm doing this - could this be the issue? I can't check because i haven't got a USB hub splitter thing to hand.
have tried wifi syncing but can't get it to work.
Thanks!

Yes, MediaMonkey needs access to the files, which wouldn't be the case if the drive they're on is disconnected.

Ok, so i've now got everything plugged in and my first playlist started to transfer. Then i noticed that it is physically transferring the songs onto my phone - i don't want this to happen, i just want the playlist - the files are already on my phone's SD card. Is there a way of preventing that from happening?
Sorry for being so useless!!

No, sync syncs the actual media files. Unless MediaMonkey synced the files already on the device it will sync the media files on the playlist.
