samsung sgh-j600 trouble playing mp3 files

gally56

Hi everyone I have recently got this phone and I have put a 1gb memory card into it I have put some music file onto the memory card by going into my computer then the going into removable drive I and putting the files into the music directory but when i try to open the music player and get the files from the moemry card it wont do it is there a special way you have to put music files on the phone.
Thanks in advance

have you tried formatting the memory card from the phone?

Yes I have and thank you for the reply. I formatted the memory card and plugged it into my pc where it is recognised as removable drive I. I then clicked on the removable drive I icon and was given the basic folders videos music pictures etc. I have then basically cut and pasted my mp3 tracks into the music folder which go on no problem so I assume they are pasted onto the memory card as there is no way the phones internal memory can hold that amount of mp3 files.
Now when I open the my files section and then go to memory card the mp3 fiiles are listed and i can play them all be it individually throught my mp3 player.
But if i open my mp3 player first and select get files from.... and select memory card it says "NO FILES"
Now when I looked this problem up it says the mp3 player can only detect mp3 files in the root of the "music" folder so what is the root of the music folder because when i try to drop all my music to the phone's music folder from the memory card it say FULL after about 4 songs depending on the length of songs.
So if anyone has this phone and knows what I have to do advice would be great and thanks heaped upon.

If it's anything like the e250 you go to phone settings, USB settings and select mass storage. Mine has an annoying habit of reverting to the Modem setting which means you can't access the card.

Thanks for the advice I have tried looking for USB Settings on the phone but cant find anything in regard to it does the phone have to attached via the USB Lead to obtaing this setting? If not can you give me directions lol sorry to be such a clot
