Re: "Connecting to WiFi network. Please Wait"? Phone is connected

Yeah, it's an old phone that I want to use as dedicated music player and GPS for the car, so no SIM card and no network, just WiFi.

[SOLVED] "Connecting to WiFi network. Please Wait"? Phone is connected

Hi all, Trying to get a phone to sync w/my MM server. It is connected to WiFi, because I can browse in Chrome, but when I try to sync, it says "Connecting to Wi-Fi network. Please wait...". Once again, I AM connected to the WiFi network, because I can browse thru my Chrome browser. I've re...

Re: Adding Radio Drama/Audiobooks to MM 4

OK, Manage Collections worked. Still showing up as an Audiobook, which is weird, but the files are in there now and actually syncing to my phone. As always, thank you for your help, I would have thrown my computer at the wall by this point otherwise... :D

Re: Adding Radio Drama/Audiobooks to MM 4

OK, I converted them to MP3, just to make sure they'd work on all of my devices. I went into the metadata info for each file and took away the 'AudioBook' tag, leaving it blank, since my music doesn't necessarily report a genre, and it works. Still not showing up though. When I choose 'Rescan', Nati...

Re: Adding Radio Drama/Audiobooks to MM 4

Not seeing them. They are .flac files. That doesn't matter, right? Pretty sure that MM works with .flac.

The Metadata says that the artist is 'National Public Radio', but I'm not seeing that as an 'Artist' anywhere.

Adding Radio Drama/Audiobooks to MM 4

Hi all. So I have adding music down pat, but I am having trouble with my most recent acquisition. I have the radio dramas put out by NPR for each of the first 3 Star wars movies. These were on CD, so there will be a folder for each movie with from 2-6 CDs inside. Normally I add stuff and rescan, but...

Good to know. Thanks again for the help, and thanks for the other times that you have assisted me. These are great support forums, something that is less and less common these days.

Re: "Sync is complete", but it's not? Not syncing an album I replaced

OK, I think I solved it! They weren't showing in the Collection in MMW. I rescanned files just in that collection, they showed up and synced to my phone. Never had to do that extra rescan before, but that solved it. Thanks for your help! :D

Re: "Sync is complete", but it's not? Not syncing an album I replaced

OK. I created a Collection called 'mike'. I told it to look in Classification Field 1 for 'mike'. I then assign all items inside of the 'Mike Music' collection to sync to the phone. I separate names by commas in the classification field, so some songs will sync just to me, some to myself and my wife...

Re: "Sync is complete", but it's not? Not syncing an album I replaced

Oh, it syncs everything classified as "Mike", but I'll go thru those pages and see if I need to set it up differently. In the meantime, any idea if it would work for me to uninstall MM on my phone, then reinstall, let it bring in the music I already have, and then try the sync again? Is th...

Re: "Sync is complete", but it's not? Not syncing an album I replaced

No, mine's pretty no-frills. I've told it to sync to 'Mike Music'. I don't even make playlists on the server, only on the phone itself. So: I upload music to the computer I Clean up the tags, artwork, etc. with the 'Auto-Tag From Web' option I select the files, and add classification as needed I syn...

Re: "Sync is complete", but it's not? Not syncing an album I replaced

It's tagged the way that I have the rest tagged. It's entirely possible that I have this set up wrong, but it works for my phone currently as well as some other devices in the home. I have the sorting set under 'Classification'. anything tagged "Mike" in Classification should go to my phon...

"Sync is complete", but it's not? Not syncing an album I replaced

Hi all, I added an album to my MM server, classified it to sync with my phone, synced, and then realized two files were missing. I deleted the whole album off of MM on the server, and re-synced the phone to see if it would delete from there. It didn't, so I deleted manually. Now, I've copied the alb...
