Tips & Warnings

• While synchronization is on, pay attention to the items you want to prioritize. The Media Center PC synchronizes items beginning from the top and continuing till the bottom of the list. You can use the up and down arrow keys to prioritize the items. Ranking will allow you to synchronize items.
• The first synchronization will be slow. However your future synchronizations will be much faster as Media Center will automatically prepare the new content for transfer to the portable device.
