How do I put music into my new phone with MP3 player in it?

Question

My daughter just gave me this wonderful new phone. It's so high tech and has all the bells and whistles. I'm more than a tad behind the times here. Guys please help me out with the music part. Thanks.

I have the new LG 8300 by Verizon

Answer 1

I'm not sure what carrier you use, but with Verizon, you have to insert the MP3 card in the phone. It should automatically ask you if you want to format the card, click yes. Once the card has been formatted, insert the card into a scan disk reader (usually around $20 at staples) insert the reader into your computer and drag your music files into the card reader. After you have put your music on there, you just have to reinsert the card into the phone and use the front buttons on your phone to navigate to which song you want to play.

Answer 2

Congrats...nice phone.

I have a Virgin Mobile Slider Sonic, and I plug my USB cable into the computer and just drag what i want to it. Mind you, that you are using a transflash or a Micro SD card, you can put whatever you want on the card, it might not (or in most cases, will not) show up on the phone...

Your phone comes with a USB cable that hooks to your phone. while it's hooked up, your phone is off and in file transfer mode. Most likely, you need to be running Windows XP on your comp to use it, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to do cool things with it. (I think you can send people songs from your phone, but read the manual to be sure!)

By the way, be careful with your card, and try not to remove it from the phone too much if you don't need to. If you have to transfer it to a card reader, be careful, because Micro SD cards are VERY sensitive.

Enjoy, and I hope this helps alittle.

Well first it depends upon the kind of phone you have. I have a Sony Erricsson W600 and to put songs into the phone, all you have to do is just drag and drop music files from your computer into phone. After you plug the usb cable into the phone and attach the other end to teh computer, just copy all your music files into the removable section of the computer, which is named Sony Erricson.
Then listen!

I do not know which carrier/make/model you own. But I would suggest looking through the owners manual or calling corporate. They both should be able to help.
