Transferring music files to your phone
Music plays audio files stored on your phone’s SD card, so before you open Music,
you must copy audio files from your computer onto the SD card.
Music supports a wide variety of audio file formats, so it can play music you have
purchased from iTunes and other online stores as well as music you have copied
from your CD collection, an so on.
Music supports audio files in the numerous formats, including MP3, M4A (iTunes
application AAC, DRM-free), AMR, WMA (8), MIDI, WAV, and OGG Vorbis.
To copy music files onto the phone’s SD card
1 Connect your phone to your computer with a USB cable and mount the SD
card.
For details, see “Connecting to a computer via USB” on page 66.
2 Use the computer to create a music folder at the top level of the SD card.
You can give the folder any name you want.
3 Use the computer to copy music and other audio files into the folder you
created on the SD card.
You can use subfolders on the SD card to organize your music files.
If the music files have accompanying artwork in JPEG format, rename the art file
albumart.jpg and include it in the same folder as the music files.
4 If you have created any playlists, create a subfolder for them in your music folder
on the SD card and copy the playlists into it.
5 Unmount the SD card from the computer and disconnect the phone.
Be sure to follow your computer’s instructions and those “Connecting to a
computer via USB” on page 66, to avoid damaging files on your SD card.
