Just been given a free upgrade under insurance as they didnt have the w800 in stock.

Have just transfered all my contacts etc over and ringtones. Now i want to put music onto it. It doesnt seem as straight forward as the w800 where i could just drag and drop into the memory stick in my computer. It appears to be the phone memory that appears in my computer???

Anyway thats the least of my worries i can use the file manager for that.

When i first got my w800 and used the walkman feature it used to put all the tracks together or by artists etc. I want each genre in diff folders on the phone and then play it this way in the walkman.

Now with my w800i i created a folder on the memory stick within the MP3 folder and called it "My Music" and within "my music" within that folder created subfolders for different styles of music that i wanted on my phone. This would then appear on the walkman function with a separate folder called "my music" with my selection in there. This saved me browsing through every single audio file on the phone to get to the one i wanted to play.

Now i have redone this on the w810i and guess what it doesnt show me my folder in the walkman, and i have to browse every audio file on the phone before i get to what i want.

Is there a different way i should be creating the folder? Or has it changed now so you cant create folders and separate your music. I know you can create playlists but i dont really want to do this as this takes ages to do i just want to be able to drag and drop a folder onto my phone from pc and then play this by finding the folder on the phone like i did on my w800

You can find the folder ok in file manager on the phone but not in walkman.

Please help...
