Possible to let Ovi Player detect songs already on...

Well, I currently use iTunes Agent in order to sync my Itunes playlist to my phone using the Mass Storage mode.
However, I noticed that such songs do not get detected by the Ovi Player at all. I want to use Ovi Player in order to create playlists easily on my Nokia 5800 (it's hard marking individual songs to the playlist in the phone itself).
However, it seems that the Ovi Player is unable to detect songs in such a mode.
Why is this so?
I find this rather frustrating since the Mass Storage mode has far faster file transfer rates than in the PC Suite mode. Also, does this mean that if I reformat my computer or use another computer then Ovi Player would once again be unable to detect my songs on my fone?
Any help would be appreciated.

Ovi Player only supports MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) devices. This is required to ensure that the tracks are copied along with the licenses. In Mass storage mode, the files are copied on a bit by bit bases, which will not create a license on the phone. MTP is a wellknown standard for media transfers. Most of the Phones and MP3 players have MTP support and they all work with Ovi Player without any problems. 
If you transfer the songs/playlist using the Mass Storage Mode, then refresh the music library on the Phone first and then connect the phone to Ovi Player. I would not suggest you to transfer Playlist using this method as it will not work on the Phone. It will be easy for you to create a playlist in Ovi Player and transfer it to the phone using Ovi Player. This will ensure that all the songs and the playlist are copied in a proper format, so that phone will be able to play it.

  • HT4914 Is there a possibility to try and re-match songs already uploaded to the cloud?

    Some songs part of an album were uploaded the first time with iTunes match. Is it possible to try and re-match them later on?

    The most likely reason for them not matching is the versions you have are not in the store (due to remasters etc). Your results are normal.
    You can delete them from the cloud, wait a while and add them back into your library, but if they didnt match last time then they won't next time.
    Some people have had some success by playing around with the files to try to force a match. A search on here may help, but it will still not give great results, and I personally think it isn't even close to being worth the time and effort.
    My advice is just to take the results you have, and maybe Apple will alter the matching process in the future. I suspect that they won't alter them to make much of a difference though.

  • I want to add new songs to my ipod.  When I set it up with itunes years ago I had a different computer that I no longer have.  Now it will not let me add new songs to my ipod shuffle without erasing everything that is already on it.  Help!!!

    I want to add new songs to my ipod.  When I set it up with itunes years ago I had a different computer that I no longer have.  Now it will not let me add new songs to my ipod shuffle without erasing everything that is already on it.  Help!!!  Is there any way around this?

    Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me.  Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

  • Just downloaded an album, will let me play some songs, but others are asking for me to authorize my computer. When I enter Use ID and password, comes back and says computer is already authorized. Why will it let me play some songs and not others?

    Has anyone downloaded an album from iTunes Store, once downloaded, will let you play some songs, but others is asking you to authorize your computer. When I go through those steps, it tells me that the computer is already authorized, but still will not let me play certain songs??

    If just some of the tracks on the album are giving you that message, that suggests that those tracks are damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • V. 11.0 wont let me burn songs already bought. Why?

    v. 11.0 wont let me burn songs already bought. Why?

    That's the same thing! When you click on the song to play it--you'll get a box asking you to authorize your computer. You'll have to use YOUR SISTER'S ITUNES ACCOUNT INFORMATION TO AUTHORIZE this song to play under your library.
    I'm pretty sure your sister will have to do the reverse to get your songs to play in her library.

  • When I click on some songs in my itunes library it says the file is not detected.  If i hook up my ipod will i loose the songs already on it or will it retore the files to itunes?

    Before to attach your ipod.... try to find the file where you put your music.... click on that song.... itunes will ask you if you want to locate it.... from there you have to find the song(s) that is one of the folders in your PC.

  • OVI Player not detecting 5800 XM

    Hello,
    I have installed letest version of OVI suite and OVI player.I connected my phone to PC in 'Media Transfer' mode but OVI player is not able to detect my phone. Even when I connect my phone in 'PC Suite' mode, OVI suite is not able tranfer or read tarcks from my 5800. In PC suite mode I can use Windows Media Player 11 to transfer music. I have tried this on two different systems having Windows XP SP3 and Windows Vista Home Premium, but OVI player is not able to detect my phone.

    I have noticed a few random times that when I connect my phone in modes other than PC Suite mode, Ovi Suite sometimes overrides my choice and reverts to PC Suite mode. This has caused ma a few problems with Ovi Player. To check if this is the case with you, connect to the PC in media mode and then go to the connection settings a few seconds later to make sure that it is still in the mode you selected.
    If not, then check in your PC's device manager - sometimes Windows detects the phone as an imaging device (ie: a digital camera) when you connect in media transfer mode. If this is the case, you need to remove your phone from the imaging devces section in Windows' Device Manager then reconnect the phone to the PC and allow it to reinstall drivers. In some worse-case scenarios, users have needed to repeat this several times for WIndows to pick up the phone correctly.

  • Can not transfer songs via Ovi Player to Nokia X6

    Hi there....
    I plug my nokia x6 in computer and select media transfer option in connection options.
    Then I run Nokia Ovi Player on my PC. I used to transfer songs via it, but now when I right click "Transfer song to Nokia X6-00", progress does not begin and it says:  " None of the tracks you are trying to transfer will fit on your device Nokia X6-00". And it says like 7,5 mb required, but 0,0 kb free, but I have 12 gigs free on mass memory and 130 mb on phone memory.
    Sometimes progress starts and after a minute it stops and all songs I tried to transfer have on left side yellow triangle with exclamation mark in it. It says smth like transfer could not be completed, or transfer has problems...
    Don't know what to do... Really I would like to transfer few more songs on my phone. I have 12 more gigs to fill up.
    Do you think any reset ( soft or hard) would resolve the problem, or should I take it to the Nokia service?
    ( sry for my bad english )
    Thank you.

  • TS1424 why wont my itunes 11 on my macbook pro, let me download the songs on my iphone 4 without erasing any music on my phone already?

    I just added songs to my library but when I connected my iPhone 4 to my macbook pro, iTunes wouldnt let me take those songs and put them on my phone. I've clicked the sync button but it seems to say that it'll delete all my existing songs on my phone then put the other songs on it in replace. Unless I'm reading it wrong, can anyone help me?

  • Is it possible to make multiple playlists and set itunes so that it will not let you add a song to more than one playlist?

    I have a veryl large Itune library and want to make multiple playlists so that for example when driving long hours in the car I can change to another playlist and not have songs repeated.  I do realize if I noted down every song that was put in a playlist I would be able to accomplish this but it would be nice if there was some setting that I am unaware of that would keep track of this for me.  Any suggestions?

    To Clearify  for example I am wondering if their is a setting so that Itunes won't let me add a song to playlist A if it is alread on playlist B.  Any Suggestions?

  • Problem with the new OVI player - no access to com...

    Yesterday i've done the forced update to the new OVI player - now for the second time. Two weeks ago i deinstalled the new player and returned to the old Nokia Player by reinstalling, but this doesn´t work any more. This time i have the same problem. The new player seems to run fine - much faster, but when i try to download (comes with music) a song the download doesn´t start. The symbol of the button is changing to the the dots but nothing happens. My account is ok, because download of songs with XpressMusic 5800 is possible.
    I tried already a lot of things and now i'm going now a bit mad. Reinstalling the Ovi Player, reinstalling the whole Ovi Suite, reinstalling .NET Framework, checking and updating all OS components - I am using still Windows XP.
    Is there anybody out there who has the same problem or anybody of the software developers that can help?

  • Flash Player Detection

    I am trying to implement flash player detection using the
    Flash Player Detection Kit - the actionscript way ie. using
    the 'flash_detection.as' and the 'flash_detection.swf', (not
    forgetting the 'update_flash.html' file also! )
    I put the swf onto my 'index.html' - it being the first page
    that is accessed when anyone goes onto our site - and I altered the
    .as file to direct users once they had installed FPlayer8 to a page
    called trueindex.html ( which was a copy of index.html without the
    flash_detection.swf on it )
    All that happened when it had installed flash player 8 was to
    keep going back to index.html over and over again!
    Because of a desire to sort out flash player detection issues
    previously, I had already changed the code on index.html to include
    the java script stuff to check for version 8 ( you could look at
    the source code on the index page )
    I'm just a little clueless as what to do now - my main desire
    is to let the un-initiated install the flash player ver8 without
    having to restart their PC or do a lot of messing about!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Ovi Player Keeps Crashing

    Hi,
    I've downloaded the newest version of ovi player, and it always crashes when importing my songs. When it reaches the 565th song, it says "ovi player is not working". Also when I open ovi player and drag the program, it crashes. Same thing when double clicking the top bar to maximize. Any ideas? I already deleted the database file and it keeps crashes.
    I hope I get some help soon.

    nokia ovi player does not play any music at all, downloaded, from my original cd collection or from the existing files that i've transfered from the window media player. It was working fine until 3 days ago.
    A fault message came up once saying something along the lines of code has been compromised contact nokia support to correct this.
    well here I am!. unfortunately I cannot afford the 20pence per minute phone conversation with NOKIA as have just had operation and do not get any pay. so please can anybody help? I need this to get away from all the football comments etc that are being pushed out of my stereo speakers( as you can gather do not follow football),

  • OVi Player does not allow download music with prox...

    Hello,
     i've noticed that OVI Player deos not allow to download music when I am inside the firewall or under a corporate proxy. ANy idea if this is a restriction from Nokia Player or is it specific to my connection ?

    Dear svenks,
    If you scroll down the discussion topics, you will realise many other users are facing music download problem after upgrading from Nokia Music to Ovi Player.
    Same for me, whether I connect my WinXP Prof 32-bit notebk behind my company firewall or at my home's ADSL broadband with Windows Firewall off, antivirus off, http://music.ovi.com set as trusted site, the downloading still fails.
    Per advised by Nokia careline, I have already sent them a log file and now waiting for their investigation.
    I wonder if anyone in the world is currently successful in downloading songs using Ovi Player. If yes, I would really like to know what PC configuration they are running under.
