Thanks for Bleg Response
Thanks for everyone who tried to help me with my bleg for help on my issues transferring .mp3 files to my Treo 650.
The winning answer came from SlimGuy, who wrote:
Here’s the information from the Palm Customer Support Tech Library
Note they talk about the files having to be in the “audio” directory.
Have a treo650 myself with a 2gb card, but I use it mostly for photos
Hope this helps.
It did.
SlimGuy noted online documentation that said other subdirectories were supported, including SD_Audio and RN-Audio. But for someone who had to create their own subdirectory, as I did, only the Audio subdirectory did the trick. Now I am typing this as I listen to randomized songs from 24 different albums — and I’m only using about 75% of my card. Awesomeness defined.
Thanks again to SlimGuy.
Glad it worked for you, I experimented with it for a while but for some reason my RealAudio player on the computer will not recognize the Treo hooked up to the sync cable like the documentation says it should. Yes I have realplayer app on the Treo running as required, but the computer is not recognizing the player and I was successful with using a card reader for manual transfer which is much quicker for large mp3 lists.

Gentlemen, nothing will ever beat my Hipster PDA.
