Angry alternative sync method for WM5 device?

Hi

I've never liked Windows Media Player, and I hate it even more
now that I've inadvertantly deleted a whole lot of media files (radio recordings)! Is there an alternative method of synchronising media files to my XDA mini S?

Many thanks

Connect your XDA and choose the explore device option in activesync, in the window that opens just browse to the location you want to copy files/mp3's to and drag 'n' drop them in from your PC

Re: alternative sync method for WM5 device?

Well I find windows media player pretty good at syncing media files, just have to get use to how it works, basically when you sync stuff to your device it will create a sync list in media player for that device, even when it is unplugged, if you delete that list or anything form it then it will do the same for the media on the player..,likewise if you add anything list it will sync it to the player upon connecting it, why not try the new windows media player 11 beta?..., if syncing DRM content then media player must be used..., but like the other guy said always sue drag and drop....

hmm... just wondering if you have a memory card, if so does the memory card port on your phone still work?, mine died 4 months after i bought it...still not got round to getting it fixed...
