TRANSFER AND SYNCHRONIZATION OF MEDIA DATA

摘要

Improved methods and systems that facilitate transfer and synchronization of data, namely, media data, between a host device (e.g., host computer) and a portable media device (e.g., portable media player) are disclosed. By coupling the portable media device to different host devices at different times, media data can be transferred between the different host devices. Synchronization of media data between a host device and a portable media device can also take into consideration one or more user synchronization related settings.
