USB + WiFi = TWO phones...??

deveds2 · 19th December 2010, 20:32

If I sync using Wifi, it works GREAT! BUT, when I sync using USB, Winamp thinks it's a different phone and syncs it in an entirely different way (tracks get deleted, etc.).

Any way to fix this?

WinAmp tries to use ID3 tags to rename (!) your files -- sounds like exactly why I moved away from iTunes... Anyways, make sure that after you are sync'ed, preferences under:

Options - Preferences --> Media Library --> Portables
Options - Preferences --> Media Library --> Portables --> DeviceID
Options - Preferences --> Media Library --> CD Ripping

have filenaming conventions that match your PC.
