Solve : Mp3 player and windows media player?

Answer»

I have a sansa clip mp3 which keeps all my music on it. I don't want to put the music onto my computer hard drive because I don't want to USE up the space. So when I listen to music whilst I'm on my laptop I plug in the mp3 player via usb and play the songs through windows media player.

This works but not how I would like it to.

If I open up windows media player with the device connected, I can view the device is connected on the left hand pane where it says Library, music, videos, pictures it also says Sansa clip. I can click on the device and it opens up and I can browse through the music as if it was an ordinary library on wmp but I can't play any of the songs. I can see the songs but when I click to play them, nothing happens.

Up until know, I've been opening the mp3 USING autoplay and play using windows media player. In this case I get all the songs in the right pane under the play tab of the play/burn/sync categories and I can browse the songs under this playlist but this is not ideal for searching songs. I want the songs to be playable in the main middle pane.

I hope I have been CLEAR.
Thanks.After years of using Windows, I have given up on Windows Media Player.
My choice is classic WINAMP. Free, and it asks if you want to do the library. Just say no. You can play all the songs on your MP3 player with WinAmp.

Do not buy anything. Do not use the add-ons. Ignore the free other stuff. Just download the free WinAmp player. Works good .

There is a folder location for saving or copy/pasting music files to achieve this task. Usually it is in the Users folder/Public/Sample Music. No removable device of music files contents is automatically ADDED to the library or playlist. They should be residing in the Hard drive specified location on WMP. Even if you use Winamp and create a playlist, the location should not be removed as Windows looks for the path of the saved items when using the saved contents.
