Indexing is the way SYNC® categorizes the music it finds on your media player. By indexing the music,  
SYNC can play selections by track, artist, album or genre categories. SYNC automatically indexes your music 
every time a media player with new music on it is connected to SYNC through the USB port. This may take 
only a few seconds, but if your player holds thousands of songs, indexing may take longer to complete.
