Connection to a computer
The computer does not recognize your Walkman.
Your Walkman is not attached to the USB cradle (supplied) properly.
Attach your Walkman to the USB cradle (supplied) properly and firmly. Charging will start
(the OPR lamp lights up in red) even if the connection was not made properly, but there is
a possibility that the computer has not recognized the Walkman. In such a case, remove
the Walkman from the USB cradle (supplied) and then attach to the USB cradle (supplied)
again.
The remaining battery power is low or insufficient.
Recharge the battery. When you use your Walkman for the first time, or if you have not
used the Walkman for a long time, it may take a few minutes to be recognized by the
computer, even if charging has already started (the OPR lamp lights up in red). Check that
the computer recognizes the Walkman after you have connected it to the computer for
about 5 minutes.
Data cannot be transferred to your Walkman from your computer.
If you transfer files by drag-and-drop on a computer that does not have Windows Media
Player 11 or later installed, only a limited amount of files may be transferable by drag-and-
drop.

then transfer files by drag-and-drop again. Before installing Windows Media Player 11 or
later on your computer, make sure to check whether your software or service corresponds
to Windows Media Player 11 or later. For details on usage, or support on Windows Media
Player, visit the following web site:
