Music files on Nokia N78 phone-help!

Andrew? Anybody?

I have a Nokia N78. I just switched out a 2GB memory card for an 8GB card. I didn't have any music files before (other than ringtones) so I don't know if this is a new problem.

When I download music files, I can't get them to automatically download to my memory card instead of the phone. It also won't let me transfer the files over to the card from the phone. Obviously this makes it virtually impossible to download music files.

Any ideas? Is there someplace (that I can't find) that I need to change the settings to allow it to do this?

When I downloaded new games, it gave me the option to download to the phone or to the memory card.

(And I think I properly formatted the memory card as the phone is reading image files that I downloaded to it, i.e. the card, after formatting.)

Do you get a "memory card corrupted" message?

If you connect the phone to your computer with PC Sync, can you access any files on the card?

This support discussion suggests reformatting the card. I'm not familiar with the N78 so I don't know if there's a missing setting somewhere that affects the default download location.
