importing to mp3 player

by Lethrneck4 Feb 21, 2011 9:21AM PST

ok, being new to this mp3 player, had a question. i got a sylvania SMPK4083 mp3 player..i am putting songs on it fine but..can i , once those mp3 are on the mp3 player, browse them by artist? i have put on 4 albums so far, draggin the albums to the mp3 player. all 4 are on there, but in order for me to get to say , the 4th album, i have to hit NEXT about 35 times. this cant be the only way to navigate. if i put 10 albums on here i am not gonna push NEXT 100 times to get to that 10th album, know what im saying? how can i sort by artist/album folder on the mp3 player and pick what i wanna listen to? all it does when i pick MUSIC, is start with the first track on the first album listed everytime! only way to advance is hit NEXT , this seems crazy if i have 100s of songs on this thing, Thanks!

Sounds like your player...

...has only a rudimentary user interface, a lot like the Apple Shuffle. It doesn't understand folders. It doesn't look at album titles or artist name. I just plays the music files stored on it.
