“USB preference” (for advanced users)

Your preferred connection mode will be used every time you connect the 

ARCHOS to a computer. The connection mode determines how your device inter-

acts with your computer:
Mode 1: “

”: Recommended for users of Windows Media® 

Player (WMP) version 10 or higher. When set to this mode, the ARCHOS uses the 

Media Transfer Protocol (MTP). It allows you to charge your ARCHOS and transfer 

files onto it at the same time. Your ARCHOS will be locked only when it is opened 

in Windows® Explorer. You will be able to synchronize your media library auto-

matically every time you connect your ARCHOS to your computer. When your 

file transfer is finished, simply unplug the cable from the ARCHOS, and your de-

vice will update the ARCLibrary (Music/Photo libraries).
Mode 2: “

”: Recommended for users of Windows® XP with Windows 

Media® Player 9, Windows® 2000, Me, Mac® OS X or Linux. The ARCHOS will ask 

you if you want to charge it or connect it as a mass storage device (Hard Drive). 

Choose to connect it as a mass storage device (external hard drive). When con-

nected to your computer, your ARCHOS will be locked. Disconnection: when the file 

transfer is over, safely unmount the ARCHOS (See: 

Disconnecting) and your device 

will do a quick ARCLibrary update (Music/Photo libraries). May not index all files.
Mode 3: “

”: Same as mode 2, but with a full 

ARCLibrary update (Music/Photo libraries) at disconnection.
