Devices are showing up late, or not at all ..
« on: December 27, 2012, 05:02:20 am »

Is there a way to do an F5 search function. It can take ages before my handhelds show up  under 'Drives & Devices'. Only iPods show very quick. But my Playbook, Cowon or Archos can take more then an hour to show.

And yes, I can see the players in the explorer within MC (18.0.103). I have seen this issue for many versions already. Also versions like 17, 16 and older.

It would also be very useful if it would be possible te see a list of configured devices. When configuring a new device or adding a device that will not show anymore it's easier this way.

Just a suggestion for better control ..

I don't think we have any of those devices available for testing, but we can check out other devices when we're back in the office on Monday.  How many files are on your devices?

Hi JohnT,

My iPod has a 240GB drive with almost 60GB of free space. It mostly shows very QUICK.
My 64GB Playbook has about 35% free diskspace. It doesn't show anymore. Solution is to add it again. Then it will recognize it again.

The other 2 device are equipped with 500GB and 160GB and I think about 20% free space. They show up within several minutes up to half an hour. And it takes a lot of time when you want to see all the songs. then it will scan the device.

The problem I'm talking about is not the scanning of the music, but merely seeing the device.

Thanks .....
