    The instructions on eHow suggest

    Connect Kindle.
    Open Music Folder on Kindle
    Open Music Folder on PC
    Copy music with copy/paste from PC to Kindle.

    It says your music files must be mp3s - take it you've double-checked that they are?

    Which bit isn't working?

    I thought I'd finally managed to get some MP3 tracks onto my KIndle but it is still telling me there are no MP3 items on it !!

    I've copy/pasted from my music folder to my Kindle music folder and the tracks are showing there but just not on the device.

    What am I doing wrong??? It's probably something really simple that I have overlooked!
