The Synchronize button in Windows Media® Player is a one way ‘sync’ button. It will add

The second method is to use Windows® Explorer to copy and paste your les
from your computer to the Video, Music or Pictures folder of your ARCHOS.
You cannot copy les larger that 2 GB to the ARCHOS due to the FAT32 le
system constraints. For advanced users: in “PC Hard Drive” connection
modes (mode 2 and 3), the maximum size is 2 GB for .AVI les and 4 GB for
any other type of le. See: Storage Settings.

cally updates the ARCLibrary (not in USB mode 2 “PC Hard Drive”), so that the
