After too much time spent trying to get connect to install properly and working around that i managed to get it to work and updated to the latest version. Yippee finally the connect store works but its in japanese, the player actually tells you what its doing instead of sitting there for ages using cpu time for seemingly no reason, device library reading actually works at usb speeds instead of 1 byte a second! Unfortuanately i can no longer transfer files to the player. Everything i`ve tried just says "0.oma transfer failed". This is to transfer mp3`s to atrac as they are being transfered which used to work great. Updating the file information already on the player works ok too. I`d rather not have to go back to the older horrificaly slow version of connect just to transfer files . any help appreciated.
