If you're using the 64-bit version of Media Center 25, you might need to use the 32-bit version instead.

Otherwise, this might help: https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Sync_Handheld

What is the mp3 device?

Brand and Model. Link to website would be even better.

Thanks for your response,
My MP3 device is a Pyle PSWP14BK.
It is a waterproof MP3 player for swimming and works great!
I contacted Pyle to find the correct driver, waiting for them to get back to me.
Any advice is welcome.

Ah. Most MP3 devices don't need drivers these days, or just use standard Windows drivers, and appear as a drive letter in Windows Explorer just like a USB stick.

Although the User Manual doesn't say much, it seems that the PSWP14BK does need a driver to work. So you are pursuing the correct path by contacting Pyle to confirm you have the correct driver. However, if it appears in Windows Explorer as a drive, MC should see it. The manual says it supports Drag & Drop, which would imply it is seen as a drive.

Does it appear as a drive?

It's pretty unusual to implement an MP3 device that way these days, as there are standards for connecting USB devices.
