MrBlonde71 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 try using a file explorer program, search on the market for "Astro File Manager" and this will move files to anywhere you want them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogin Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 tried that... still cannot move the music to music files... Half the problem is I have plugged it into the computer and it askes for drivers... ok I didn't get a disc for it, also tried to download off the net no luck.Sodding thing!!!

Nogin Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 Down loaded the drives etc got most sorted but still won't transfer the music across! Aggggghhhhhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Does it matter if its in the music folder as the phone should just pick it up anyway! I use es file explorer which is pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogin Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 That's what we thought, but it won't pick it up???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Is it in the wrong format? My phone uses the same software and picks them up no matter where they are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Yeah....my HTC Desire just picks the music files up and plays them no matter where I dump them..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogin Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 I've got all the samsung software on the computer and the music is on there but for some reason it won't put it on the phone! Annnnoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 so you cant get it to go on the phone? its not that its on the phone and wont see it? if you cant get it to go on the phone connect the phone to the pc with the cable and connect it as a mass storage device the pc will just see it as a external drive then open my computer and open the new mass storage drive usually the last letter E or F etc then open a new window and find the file you want right click copy then paste it in to the file on the mass storage drive (phone) and thats it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogin Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Yep thats what I thought Stu...But what happens is if you just move the music on to the phone is stores it as a file and I cannot use it as music.So I have downloaded all the Samsung Kies for the phone, that does all the updateds, music etc.It sees my phone, connects to my phone, loads up the music and the button that says "Transfer to device" is not working.???????????????????????????????????????????????????

Tango Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Has that phone got a MicroSD card as memory? I take mine out of the phone and put it into a card reader and load the files to it directly. Just shows up on explorer as another drive. Copy and Paste my music into it....then put it back in the phone and fire it back up.......Robert's your father's brother.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Tango that would be exactly the same as using a cable and choosing mass storage device! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Tango that would be exactly the same as using a cable and choosing mass storage device!It don't seem to always work that way Stu. I've not hooked my HTC up to my laptop, but my old Nokia always insisted that I use the Nokia software to transfer files to it....which was a real pain. But removing the SD card and putting it into a card reader worked just fine with Explorer and copy & pasting files into it.Anyhoo....that works for me and saves loading a host of other stuff onto my already creaky laptop....

Stu Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 you dont need no software i have the HTC desire HD and when you plug it in it will ask what you want to do HTC synccharge only mass storage and i think there is another one i forget for mass storage you dont need and software and it will just act like the card reader you only need the software for HTC sync but its crap i use a different one for that give it a try it might save ya a few seconds of your life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
