Seeing how this is nearly identical to numerous Zune software questions, i'll just provide a link that contains other links within that regard syncing with a computer.

Account setup
1 If you want to sync content you already own, install the Zune software on your computer by going to www.zune.net/setup.
2 If you also want to add to your collection from the Zune Marketplace, launch the Zune software on your computer and sign up for a Zune account (you can use your KIN account email address). Sync with phone.  
Once you have installed the Zune software and set up your account, follow these steps to sync your
phone with your collection:
1 Connect your phone to your computer via USB.
2 Open the Zune software if it doesn’t open automatically. The first time you do this you’ll be prompted to name your phone, specify sync preferences, then link your phone to your Zune account (if you have one).

Hi not sure if u ever found a solution but I recently just upgraded to the KIN ONEm phone I also could not sync my phone with Zune and verizon even tried to help me by calling Sharp. But they didn't really help so the tech support guy said maybe u try googlingwindows mobile device center and going from there here is the direct site---> (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/953933) It shows you how to solve the issue yourself after two days of trying to figure out this phone i was able to solve the problem in 5 minutes with that site!! lolI I will probably call tech support and give them this site to help others!! Hope this helps!
