How to synchronize deletions?

Post by Blutarsky »

I'm (finally) using autosync successfully, however I see that deletions (music tracks/folders deleted on the PC library) are not mirrored to the phone. Is there a way to accomplish this?

Have you checked the option to "Remove files from the device that aren't in the auto-sync list"?

Do you mean Tools->Options->Portable/Audio Devices->[device name]->Configure->Auto-Sync(-->Device)->"Delete other files and playlists from the device:"->Unselected Library files" ??

If so, yes I have selected the checkbox, but not since first full sync... and does nothing..

BTW, my playlists are being generated in the root folder with the "M3U for Child Nodes" script..... will this action wipe them out?

Playlists should be removed as well if they're not on the sync list (and they aren't as you use the Addon). However if you've delete files you may want to have the Playlist re-generated anyway.

Which version of MediaMonkey and what phone are you syncing to?

Version 4.1.0.1614 , using a Samsung Galaxy S2.
Sync works properly apart from deletion on local device....As I wrote, I have recently enabled the option to delete unselected files on the device, after the first initial full sync

1617 is the latest build. You are running Auto-Sync (it's the only option to have MM delete files of device), if I am correct?

In that case I suggest capturing it in a debug log (step 4b) and send it to support: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... f=12&t=341
