Greg,

I always auto-sync, so I don't know if your issue is the "send to" process. I have synced not only my Clip but my Clip+ without issue numerous times in MM4. My only other thought is in your auto sync options, in the Playlist section, do you have the Destination Directory as \Playlists\?
My Destination for Music is \Music\<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Title>.

I hope you get it working.

I have tried MSC which gives empty Play Lists and MTP which give nothing, both give extra copies of the same song...
I have set \Music\<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Title>
I have set \MUSIC\<Album Artist>\<Album>\<Title> just in case
Tried "Sent to..." and Auto Sync to get them on the Clip
With the settings of "Force relative paths" and Library Playlist"

No luck on any combination? This is on Windows 7 Pro x64, MM 4.0.3, Sansa Clip 4GB, also tested on a Clip 2GB and a Clip+ 4GB...
Worked without changes to CLip of MM when I was on version 3.x.

The only thing I can think of is your Playlist destination; is it ? \Playlist\
And in Option>Auto-Sync do you have Delete files and playlists not included in auto-sync list from the device checked?

I am so surprised at all the issues with a Sansa; I must be blessed.

Tried those settings as well no luck, MM still works for my Audio Books put on the Clip but the wife has started using Windows Media Player and it works without any issues. I may have to as well, or see if I can have MM4 and MM3 installed at the same time..

You can have MM3 and 4 installed at same time, just put 4 in a different directory, such as C:\MM4\Media Monkey\

Best is to do a regular install of MM3 and a Portable Install of MM4. The Portable Install has all MM's files in the install folder including DB, ini and registry.
