Both of these devices will work with the WMDM plugin, though there are some cases where the Generic Portable/Audio Device plug-in may be preferable for USB Mass Storage devices. To use the Generic plugin:<br /> <br /> # Install the USB Mass Storage Plugin: http://www.mediamonkey.com/addons/browse/item/usb-mass-storage-plug-in/<br /> # Start MediaMonkey and plug in the device.<br /> # Go to &#039;&#039;&#039;Tools&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Options&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;gt; &#039;&#039;&#039;Portable/Audio Devices&#039;&#039;&#039; and check whether the device has been detected by MediaMonkey&#039;s WMDM plugin. Uncheck that device.<br /> # Select the &#039;Generic Portable/Audio Device&#039; plug-in and press &#039;Configure&#039;<br /> # On the &#039;Device Configuration&#039; tab, enter a Drive Letter, Drive Label, or USB Device ID and press &#039;OK&#039;. Once this is done, when the device is plugged in in the future, it will be recognized by the Generic Portable/Audio Device plugin instead of the WMDM plugin.<br /> # Proceed to [[{{WebHelp:Links|MTP Devices}}|Configure the Device]].<br /> {{WebHelpFooter}}</div>
