3.8 Locking the Gmini™ Buttons

You can prevent the Gmini from executing unintended functions by locking

the buttons. To lock the buttons, hold down on the MENU button until the

“lock” icon appears in the top-left corner of the screen. Now the buttons are

disabled, but you can still use the navigation joystick to change the volume.

To unlock the buttons hold down again on the Menu button until the “lock”

icon disappears.

Putting Music onto your Gmini™ XS202

Your Archos™ product is a certiﬁ ed PlaysForSure™ digital device which means that wherever

you ﬁ nd music for sale on the Internet with the PlaysForSure™ symbol, you can be certain that

they will ‘Play for sure’ on your Gmini XS202. Please note that the Gmini XS202 does not currently

support subscription services. Check the Archos website to see if there is update software that

will provide for recognition of these services on your device. For additional information on ‘Play

for sure’ and download services, check out the web site www.playsforsure.com .

The Gmini XS202 is designed to work seamlessly with Windows Media

Player (WMP) versions 9 and 10. The

Windows Media

Player software is used to download digital media content from the Internet to your computer

and organize it. You will also use it to synchronize (copy) the contents of your Windows Media

Player media

library to your Archos™ device.

4.1 Synchronizing Music from Windows Media

Player (WMP) to the Gmini™ XS202

Windows Media

Player (WMP) allows you to synchronize music between your computer and Gmini XS202: That

means, it will add music ﬁ les to your Gmini XS202 so that you have the same digital media on your Gmini as you

have in your Windows Media

Player library. The synchronization is one way, that is to say, copying music ﬁ les

from your computer to your Gmini, but it will not copy ﬁ les from your Gmini to your computer. You can choose to

sync only certain songs or to sync your entire library.

4.1.1 Synchronizing Music from Windows Media

Player (WMP) 9 to the Gmini™ XS202

music library (saved on your computer) and on the right, the ﬁ les and folder on your Gmini

XS202. Check the ﬁ les you want to copy to the Gmini. Make sure you have selected the folder

on the Gmini into which you want to copy your music. In the top right corner of WMP, you will

ﬁ nd the Copy button which starts the synchronization process.
