I can drag a playlist to the Sync tab and it will properly sync the music. With the SGP5 in Media player mode, I can connect the SGP5 with WMP12 already open and WMP12 will properly detect the internal and external storage. I can drag a playlist to the Sync tab and it will properly sync the music however, it will not add the actual playlist to the SGP5. With the SGP5 is in Mass storage mode, I must first connect the SGP5 and then start WMP12 in order to WMP12 to detect the internal and external storage. Here's what I've experienced so far when syncing music and playlists using Windows Media Player 12. I'm not sure if this next part is necessary, but the filename by default seems to include the type of sound, e.g., if you have a ringtone named "abcde.mp3" it calls it "abcderingtone.mp3" or "abcdealarm.mp3" etc. Oh, and one more helpful tip is that to also transfer your ringtones, you can move them to MEDIA->AUDIO->RINGTONES, or for alarms same path MEDIA->AUDIO->ALARMS, or for notifications same path of MEDIA->AUDIO->NOTIFICATIONS. Finally I am free of freaking itunes! (I just had to use itunes one last time to export the playlists.) Just thought this would be helpful to others. It didn't work, but then when I went back into the music player program and looked under playlists, I found that all my playlists showed up and functioned! I found out that apparently the phone creates its own playlist filetypes (called ".pla") under the "PLAYLISTS" folder that already existed on the phone but was previously empty. But I went to the file manager on the phone and attempted to open the playlist files directly. At first, the playlists did not show up as available. Then I also put my playlists there under the same MUSIC folder (m3u or pls standard playlist filetypes, exported from itunes). I just moved my mp3 files into the folder MOBILE->MUSIC.

On the motorola photon, with gingerbread, etc., I just discovered I can drag and drop music and playlists without using any software like itunes, motoral media, or anything else.
