I can't get music to play on my Sony PSP?

Hey i have done everything you have said reguarding the psp and putting music on it. But i ran into another problem i dont have the file named (Music) or anything like movie or a file like it.. All i have got is a couple of file under saved data and a couple under browser.. thats it!! so i was wondering if i need to add a new file or i need to put the music somewhere else??? So please let me know what i shoud do.. PS i have windows xp-pro

What you need to do is to have the PSP format your Memory Stick, Ronnie. Be aware that doing so will delete all game saves, photos, music, etc that's on the stick (though I expect you don't have any), but then you'll have all the folders you need to work with it later. Click on "home", then left arrow to the system configuration options, and under "System Settings" one of the options is "Format Memory Stick". That'll do it!

yo is there a way to put music on to your PSP with out a MP3 player. If there is plese tell me because i tryed. the computer will say that it transfered my music but when I check nothing is there. So plese answer.

Hey i have done all that you have said.I have draged the my favorite music into the psp music folder on my PC. And I finished it all, but when i go back on my psp on the music file it just shows the little box where the picture of the album is suposed to be, and underneath it says 0 traks. So i did everything you said but it still doesnt work. please help!

OMGOODNESS! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!! U r a Savior LoL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU helped me out to the maximum!!!!!! I appreciate it!

forget everything i said. Switch doesnt let me convert the music. It keeps saying file cannot be converted plz help me!!!

nevermind i figured it out

how do you get music onto the MUSIC file(which is under the PSP file)

if you download the new verson 2.6 then you can go to system setting then go to enable WMA playback then you should be able to play WMA files on your PSP.

hOW DO YOU PUT THE SONGS INTO MP3 FORMANT

Hi. I have formatted my memory stick, logged onto my PSP in the USB section. I can transfer songs to my PSP but when I go to play them, my PSP say file is corrupt!! Any suggestion? You're a life saver!!!

There's a problem..absoutely nothing you said helps me.

i have no USB cable yet and i tried putting some songs directly to the memory stick using a card reader, and it wont display songs avalable but it uses up space. oh and the mp4 file too. thanks in advance for the help!

Hi all. To convert music into MP3 format, please see:

http://www.askdavetaylor.com/about_convert_mp3.html

You can't use MP4 audio files on a PSP either, so you might need to convert them to MP3 format.

JKluger: if you don't give us any additional details, it's basically impossible to try and help you any further... :-)

i did evey think you told me and when i get out of USB connection i go to music and memory stick and when i click it,it says that there is no tracks please send me an answer quick

How do you put songs under music? i tried and it created a new folder. i have tried just about everything! Please help me!!! ;)

Hi I understand what everyone is saying and I put music on my PSP because it takes up space but when i look into music it sata there aren't any tracks. Please help if you have an answer send to marky755@msn.com

Dave, I just want to express my thanks.
And to everyone who loads the music onto the memory stick and then can't see it in the PSP, please READ the posts before yours. All the answers are there. You have to format the memory stick, so that the PSP sets up the directories. You can not set them up on your own. (Well, you can, but seeing as you already have problems, you more than likely won't do it right.)

i tried everything, but won't play music. got to dump this junk on ebay and buy ipod. thanks a lot.

Well, me me, there are oodles of people who *have* gotten this to work, so perhaps you can tell us a bit more detail about how you've proceeded with the steps I outline in this article and where things failed to work for you?

Hey Dave!
Thanks for all the info available. On my PSP I was wondering if I can play music I have loaded onto my memory stick while I am playing a game. Some of the songs with the games are pretty bad.
Thanks!

Unfortunately, Lee, you cannot do that. The PSP can only do one thing at a time...

i need to know how to get music on my psp even though i was a 32mb memory card for my psp

omg thnku sooooo much lol i have spent ages trying to put music onto my brothers psp and i finally came accross this website which was a savior lol! thnku soo much!

I have done everything you said to do about putting music onto my psp, and I know it's on there because the free space on the memory stick goes down when I download, but when I go onto music and memory stick, it says 'there are no tracks'. What should I do?

I really need help. When I try to place music into my "MUSIC" folder in the "PSP" folder i get an error message that says: "Cannot copy file, specify name and path" or something like that. What does it mean?

Actually, Lee, you can. I'm a bit iffy on the details, but there is a program you can download that lets you listen to your own custom soundtrack in GTA: Liberty City Stories. There may be other games it works with, but I'm not so sure. LCS is an amazing game, and having your own songs as a sountrack would be an amazing help, since, well, the songs suck in the actual game. Look it up on Google, you may find something.

I dont understand the usb connection download system you put up.

does anyone know if you can create folders under the music folder? because I put a couple of cd's worth of MP3's on my 1GB stick, and now they are now even organized to artist? ie x:\PSP|MUSIC\REM would that work????

Out of the box the PSP 32mb stick isn't formated. You are "dead on" with formating the memory stick! I found just what I needed here to make this thing work!

I've read the comments here and i'm still about ready to chuck this one day old PSP out of the office window.

So far:

- I've connected the USB cable fine.
- I've got a new e: drive
- I've saved two jpeg images in that e:drive under a folder i've called 'Photos'
- On the PSP display, under Photo/Memory stick I can see the amount of memory has gone down - so they're on there.
- however i'm told there are "0 images"

WTF?

Please someone save my sanity. I'm around all day on.

HELP!

i downloaded a song and when i went to my music and clicked memory stick it said there are no tracks please help me out.

ok ok this is very simple you guys are making this like rocket sience or something. ok this is what "I" did to get music on my sony psp. i have "Lime wire" i don't know if any of you guys have it but its a great music sharing place. all the music is free. if you want it go to www.limewire.com and "download" and "get Basic", now install it. ok plug your psp in your PC through a USB cable. and on your psp go to "Settings" and click on "USB connection" your PC should pop up with the action you wanna do. click on the folder file. now, creat a file called "PSP". ok now go in that file, inside that file creat a file called "MUSIC" now go inside that file. ok i hope u have lime wire open and ready to go. download a song and when it's complete drag and drop it into the music file and there you go, you have music on your psp

I also have the same problem as Nick, I did everything basic

i am in usb mode
mem stick is formatted

Sometimes if i'm lucky i can get the stick to be recognized as a removeable drive, but when i transfer a file ( a picture file to PSP\PHOTO)
it either stops halfway thru, which gives me a corrupted file on PSP, or it says Path or Filename Does not exist. please give me some advanced help

i have got my music on the psp---music file but i dont no wer to download the stuff plz help me!!!

Hey i have done all that you have said.I have draged the my favorite music into the psp music folder on my PC. And I finished it all, but when i go back on my psp on the music file it just shows the little box where the picture of the album is suposed to be, and underneath it says 0 traks. So i did everything you said but it still doesnt work. please help!

Hey Dave ty for the info. I figured out after u format the memory card u can get shared music and move it to the music section of the PSP. It worked and I made all of my files MP3s. Thank you tons dave!

dear dave youve helped me a lot with my psp just by looking on your web page but i have a question that i need to ask you, it says when i fifa world cup psp game in my psp i need to update my psp and i dont know how, when i bought mu psp the instruction manuel was in japenese so can you please tell me how i update my psp and what do i need to update it.

i really dont have a comment because i have a question. can u download any songs on ur psp without it costing or without a usb plug?

I can connect my PSP to my PC but I can not create a file "PSP". Unable to create the folder 'New Folder'is the error message. 0 bytes are listed for the capacity. Can you help? Thanks.

I read your instructions several times even got my wife to try the instructions...same results.

I dragged and dropped my .MP3 files into the Music folder, unplugged the cables and plugged in my headphones.

I went to the music area and pressed the X button. The PSP reads "The music cannot be played. There are no tracks available."

Of course there is nothing on the Sony troubleshooting site?

I am ready to personally fly to Sony and throw this PSP at them!

What do I do?

Is it broken? Do I return it to the store?

You are missing the following instructions

"create the Music directory under the PSP folder!

I had problems before and basically gave up, but then on a whim i tried to connect my psp to my comp to get some music and pics, and it worked. it was so frustrating before and then it worked. then two minites later i wanted to add another song, i plug my usb in, 'does not recognize usb device.' what the hell?

i have down loaded songs on my psp but it only shows 1 song how do i find and play the others it shows my memory getting smaller so i know the songs are going somewhere

I have exactly the same problem as Nick and Steve. I have managed to copy music files before but now i keep on getting the message "Path or Filename Does not exist" I am copying the files to the right folder and i have formatted my memory stick many times to make sure i have all the right files. What is strange is that i have managed to copy files before and now i can't. PLEASE HELP DAVE!!!

Dear Dave,

G'day Dave. I bought a PSP 2 days ago, and everytime I slide music, video, or picture files onto the formatted removable drive (into the correct folder), the file either becomes corrupt on the PSP, or an error message comes up and file paths. Please help. :-)

From my comment above, the error message the appears when sliding files across (that appears most of the time, if this message doesn't appear, the file becomes corrupted on my PSP). The error message is as follows:

"Cannot copy *insert file name here*. Cannot find the specified file.

Make sure you specify the correct path and file name."

I'm stumped!

I'm trying to download music onto my psp, but my computer doesn't recognize the USB cable. I have the right cable, my PSP is in USB mode, but it doesn't say removeable disk or anything. I got Get Connected USB cable that set-up MAX Media Manager on my computer. The manual with it said windows 98/98SE said that the USB cable will not be recognized so it told me to download a program to make it get recognized, but it didn't work. I am ver frustrated what do I do?

You are the best. I have been thru 2 computers(1 that was ancient) and now this one. Countless useless help searches and finally you were the one place that helped. I just downloaded my first song to my 9 year olds PSP. I will never search for help again anywhere but your site.

Hey, I was having trouble downloading music to my psp, then I figured it out that I hate windows media, so I used music match and I got all the music that I wanted, then I couldnt figure out why
I couldnt listen to the music while I played a game, then I went to www.psp.com and that was crap, and I came here and that saved allot of time, I would have spent allot of hours trying to figure out that PSP you can only do one thing at a time. Thank you so much, I wish I would have known about this site before I was troubleshooting how to transfer files
Thanks again

Mr. Dave, you say the psp can only do one thing at a time...(playing whilst listening to music etc etc...) then, why good sir, do two of my games ask me if i would like to search my psp for music files to add to the in-game playlist? If i have misunderstood something i am sincerely sorry for the waste of time. i have music on my psp to listen to but how can i integrate it into the game when prompted? I have tried folder after folder, but to no avail. so Mr. Guru, who is admittedly better at this than i am, what do i do?

What games are you talking about, Drew? I don't have any that do what you're asking, so there's no way for me to test things out, unfortunately. :-\

When I put certain mp3 files into the music folder on my psp it comes up as "corrupted data" on my psp. WHYYYYYYYYYY MEEEE?

DAVVVVE! I need yor help! Will you please answer me? Is having a windows XP home edition the only way to connect your PSP to your PC, I have windows
ME, can I connect my PSP if I have Windows ME? PLease answer me dave I need a lot of help! I searched this whole site!!!! I even plugged in the USB cable and fallowed all your directions! I am in danger,Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah, thanks so much...I've had this for a year and have been trying to put music on here and it wouldn't show up lol...
I know it's sad but now it finaly works...
Lolz
xDD

Hey, I downloaded music on my PSP, i know because it used up space on my memory stick, but when i go to listen to it, it says "there are no tracks."
Why wont my music play?

Hi Dave,
I think my problem is that the music I purchased is from MSN music. The switch program can't convert it because it can't open the file. The PSP also seems unable to get past authorization for the file. I'd rather not have to purchase this music again from Sony (I already paid for it from Microsoft). I can get the music to play on my regular MP3 player but not on the PSP

Can music be downloaded from the PSP's internet ? If not then why?

Can you tell me step by step please how to get free music downloads onto my psp.I got a window xp please and thank you.

From my comment above, the error message the appears when sliding files across (that appears most of the time, if this message doesn't appear, the file becomes corrupted on my PSP). The error message is as follows:

"Cannot copy *insert file name here*. Cannot find the specified file.

Make sure you specify the correct path and file name."

I'm stumped!(reposted from above)

I have this same problem. I was easily able to drag and drop files onto my PSP from a computer at work that ran SP1 (I run SP2 Home). So it isn't the cables, the memory stick format or bad files. But I cannot find any info on this, I'm Stumped also!?!

The latest system software version for psp supports AAC files ripped from CDs by itunes (not the protected AAC format that you buy from the itunes music store), so no need to reconfigure itunes to rip to mp3 format anymore.

it has all the artists, but likw wen i click on it it says that there are no tracks.. ever time i try to "drag and drop", it says disk is full and what not...

DAVE, I REALLY REALLY NEED HELP.. I AM SO CLOSE TO JUST BREAKING THIS PSP AND GETTING AND IPOD NANO.

I see that a lot of people have the same problem as me- After putting music on PSP it says "no tracks" How do you fix this? Thanks

i keep trying to download videos through the internet to my psp and it says it downloads but when i chech videos theres nothing there..am i supposed to format the video files or something??

My son has a PSP and we have put music on it. The music will be there - sometimes - but when it is, a song will never play all the way through. We have formated the memory stick - through the PSP and there is plenty of room on it. We are also using MP3 files. Any suggestions??

Never mind - I got it working. All this time it was a bad cable. We were using the one that came new with starter kit - therefore I didn't think about it being the cable to start with. It was really flimsy and on a retractable device. I noticed we could sometimes get songs on and sometimes not. Also sometimes the PC would recognize the PSP and sometimes it would not. We found another cable in the house and tried it and the songs went on great.

download the new firmware version 2.6 or late then you can go to system setting then go to enable WMA playback this option willconnect to the internet to enable the wma playback then you should be able to play WMA files on your PSP. copy your mp3 files to psp/music folder. Solucionescompu@aol.com

Hi Dave,
I'm about to pull every hair on my head out. I bought my 11 year old a PSP for Christmas. He loves it, BUT now he wants to download mp3 tunes to it. He is relentless about getting his iTunes (I'm the computer guru, he says--so the pressure is on) transfered onto it. We purchased some songs from iTunes, and didn't know that they would come in anything other than mp3 format. I tried to drag them to the PSP Music folder, and while it looks like it's doing something, when we open up the music folder, it is empty. After reading your tips, I found that the songs are ALL in M4P format. I read your advice, and downloaded SWITCH, but it won't allow me to convert the files to MP3. It comes up with an error and says it can't convert.
I've spent hours trying to figure this out. There has got to be an easier way.
I'm not a computer guru, and I'd really appreciate any help you can give.
Thank you!
Michele in Montana

Get yourself a 4 gig memorystick, then get the psp media manager software, it converts files for you...or get pspmaxmedia manager from datel- it's easier and free than media manager, and update your firmwire, or get devhook 3.03 firmwire even has visualizers :D, that matches color wit ur existing theme, or random colors :D and 4 or 5 styles :D

I have media player version 9 i think, so how do i do it on 9

i can not download anything onto my psp

Hey Dve, wen ever i drag anytyped of files onto the PSP. I get an error saying "Please correct path or file name" and it wont save onto the PSP. Ive called Sony and Microsoft and HP. But they dont know whats wrong with it. PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!

hello im having a problem ith my psp how do i get the songs to come up it shows the name but underneath it says zero tracks?

yo dave i formated my memory stick but still when i check on removable disk no folders show up

He wants free songs on his PSP thank you

I have a problem with playing music on my PSP. All my songs on my computer are in mp3 format. But the problem is, my PSP will only play SOME of the songs a put on it. I'm at a loss as to why it's only playing some MP3's!!

I use Music Match to convert my CDs to MP3s.

All the albums my PSP won't play have a little box for the album cover, and when you click on it it says there arent any tracks. Even though I can play the tracks from my PSP memory stick. And they're all definitly MP3s!!

Can anyone help? It doesn't make any sense as to why it plays some of my MP3s!

Thanks,

Nadia.

My problem is sorted :o)

Three days I've had this problem for and have just stumbled upon a website that had the solution... straight after I sent this post no doubt!

Anyway, the reason some of my albums didn't play was because the songs where within a folder of a folder!

This website shows a diagram of the problem, notice the cross on the folder within a folder of the Music folder.

Once I moved the folder with the actual mp3's in it up to the Music folder, my songs were playing... yay :o) My PSP is brilliant now... I can surf the net, play films, play games, play movies, and even read PDFs.

Nadia.

Oh... I forgot to post the webaddress of the site that helped me, its http://www.us.playstation.com/Support/PSP/Music/s_psp_mu_SA.html

how do i get my psp to play music it says that i have to enable my WMA player

help dave !!!! lost my psp cd that came w/it when i bought it i dont know how to download anything w/out........ what do i do, please help!!

I did everything your website says, but every time I try to go to my music it says no tracks are avilable and music cannot be played.

Help!!!!!!!!!!!! I took my memory stick out of my psp and put it in my computer and put music on the memory stick and put It back into the psp. It said memory space taken, but they is no music on the psp.

Okay. I figured out why sometimes you can't see the tracks you put on the PSP. You have to save the tracks directly under the Artist's folder. If you put another folder into the artist's folder(for me One-X(Album name)inside three days grace folder) and then the tracks inside of the Album folder then the tracks won't show up. Copy the tracks directly under the Artist's folder.

thank you so much it really works!!!

Err.. Thanks, but how come when I download the song (it's in mp3 music file checked like 5 times) and when I play it on my PsP is skips to the next song and when I check the last one I was on, it says the file has been coruppted and cannot play. What's going on?

i did everything u said i dragged to music files and made psp file. i know it is somewhere because it uses my memory stick on my psp. i go to music but it says no tracks. how do i get the music to come up? please help dave?

Thanks, i listened to you, switched USB ports, and it worked. Thanks to you.

i tried everything you said to connect my psp to the computer but it still wont work. i've tried every port but it wont reconize my psp. my computer usually never has a problem with connecting devices. please help me.

my problem is that the pc gives me a copy.exe problem when trying to open my psp... i even went to gamestop to buy a cd to send saved games, movies, pictures, music etc and nothing what can i do? any thoughts send e-mail to lestat666alucard@hotmail.com i dont know if upgrading it to 3.80 would be helpful (i don't think it should matter though)

hey i have two questions. first i have windows media player so i hooked up my psp to my usb cord and tried to download music and it worked except that when i go into my music on my psp it says the artist names but it says i have no songs. if u could return my email it would be great.
my next question is you know that i told i have windows media player, well how do i get a mp3 folder, and after that how do i copy my windows media player music onto my mp3 folder?

is there sposed to be a music file in the 'psp' folder? because if there is i dont have it!

Hey,
Alright I got the music on my PSP.. Your instructions work great. But now I'm stuck. No it doesn't say corrupted file.

I go to music, and my songs are there and I go to play them and this message comes up
" WMA playback is not enabled.
And I did enable it and it still doesn't work.
All I want to do is play my music. Please help. Thank you

I was having trouble with this myself, but then I did two things that appeared to make the difference:
1) I had one of those combination power/data cables, so I unplugged the DC power connector (yellow part)
2) I switched off the wireless antenna.

If you're having trouble, maybe try one (or both) of these.

i put music on my psp and it takes up space but it says theres no music.i know im doing it right because i did it on a different memory card before and it worked.how do i fix it?
please answer

OK. i got it. for all of you who format your mem stick. do the usb connect. accept the WMA playback. if you plug your psp in to your cmp and you use programs to load the music onto your psp. persay windows media player. well what it does it make folders in your music file. well it should work in a sense but for some stupid reason it doesnt read any music in the folder. so the simple fix is to just put the exact file in the music folder. make sure its not under any artist folder or anything. heres a great example of how you should see it. just change (psp) with the removable drive it shows up as
psp:music
for me it shows up as I:music/
just drag the exact file under music and presto it will work. now can somebody figgure out why the heck it wont play any music under an artist folder? cause its stupid as hell
