Default Music on a media card.

Please Login to Remove!

Still new to BB.
I loaded a number of songs onto my media card. My problem is when I go to music on my BB, then to all songs nothing is there. Plugged my BB into my PC and all of my music is on the media card.
How do I listen to it?
Thanks!

Did you put them in the <music> folder on your media card? If not, that might be it...

Yes they are in the music folder.
I also loaded a few songs onto my BB not the media card and they work fine.

If they have DRM on them, they won't play.
Also, if they are VBR instead of CBR, they might not play. I have had mixed success with Variable Bit Rate MP3s and I have had no problems with Constant Bit Rate MP3s.

is there a way to convert them? because i have a lot of songs on it and mine are actually .m4a and they play but they only show up in the all songs category.... they do not show up when i go looking for them in the artist sections but when they do play they say they are from that artist... anyone else have this problem or know how to fix this?

mmm I use aac... acc? aac hehe. It works fine! It saves space, so for every 4-5 songs, I can throw on another one, for free!! (as if it cost anything ^^). I use iTunes to convert all my music to aac.
