The media managing tool supplied with all new Sony Ericsson phones, Sony Ericsson Media Manager, has been updated to version 1.1, and this includes many new features and enhancements. Earlier on, the application was quite slow when converting songs and transferring files to the phone - it even displayed the wrong memory amount on my K850! It wasn’t that stable either. Now all of this has been fixed, and it works quite fast.

One of the best added features, however, must be the support for converting videos. In the release version, you’d have to upgrade to “Pro” to get this ability, but now it’s free.

The new version can be found right here!

    Other information about Media Manager 1.1 : it works not only with A200 phones but also with A100. I’ve tested it in K770 and W880. You should choose “File Transfer” mode on your phone to recognize by this software.

    Ive just installed version 1.0. (Just finding out where to find the version information took a few minutes, Its hiding inside the settings tab under an about button.)

    I think SonyE MM should win the gold-medal for non-intuitive sw.

    I have tried in vain looking through all the functions and browsing through the use-less documentation to find out where your photos end-up when you synchronize your photos.

    Just look in the help and try to find where the photos on the camera will end up on the pc. The help is embarrasly bad, but I guess the actual sw that the help is describing is even worse.

    In the end I had to go to the SonyE web and look under FAQ, where I found the following on how to transfer photos from the phone to the pc:

    How do I transfer a picture from my phone to my computer?
    “To transfer a picture from the phone to the computer by USB, follow these steps:
    Connect the USB cable to the computer and the phone.
    In the phone: When you attach the USB cable to the phone, you are prompted to choose between Phone mode, Media transfer, Print and Mass storage. Choose Mass storage and press “”Select”".
    On the computer: Open My Computer. Your phone will be visible as a removable disk.
    Double-click the removable disk.
    Here you will find specific folders (depending on your phone model) where your pictures are stored.
    Drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste the picture from the appropriate folder to a folder on your computer.
    Disconnect the phone from the USB cable.
    The picture is now transferred to your computer.
    You can also transfer pictures via Bluetoothâ„¢. See the user guide for details about this.” Visa mig!

    Nowhere is the MediaManager mentioned.

    Actually most of the references to photos in the SonyE MediaM help is how to delete them!! both on your PC and on your phone.

    I guess the best solution for SonyE MediaM would be to just delete the whole piece of software and all the source code that go along with it.

    I now installed version 1.1.

    Its definitely a step forward. Synchronization nowhere to be mentioned in the help, the function is actually removed! And it’s now comprehensible how to transfer items from the phone to the PC.
    Well done!!
    (Could it be that someone who actually cares about what the application contains started to work there?)

    What happened to the video conversion ability?

    Over 400 quid for the phone and then they want another 15 quid to go PRO?

    Robbery.

    I downloaded the 1.1 version of Sony Ericsson Media Manager and liked what I saw.

    I then followed the online prompts via the “GO PRO” tab and purchased Sony Ericsson Media Manager PRO.

    I received the email with the serial number, but no further instruction.

    What exactly do I do now? It’s nice to have spent my money for a serial number, but how does that help me upgrade?

    Any assistance?

    There are 2 different types of serial. I will tell you where you have to enter it.

    Both PC Suite and Media Manager tell you to assign your USB connection to “phone mode”.

    It works for PC Suite but the phone doesn’t show up on MM. Tried Version 1.0. Upgraded to 1.1 - it still doesn’t work.

    Piece of Crap.

    Congratulations to Sony Ericsson for making the clunky Nokia PC Suite look totaly smooth and Ferrari-like.

    This has to be the worst software I have ever used connects to the phone takes 20 mins to find files takes just as long to transfer songs to the phone. Took it to the shop where I bought it and they had the same problems
