Getting music onto a samsung Galaxy?

Hi,
Needing a little help please! I have talked my Dad into getting a Macbook as I love mine. Now I can't figure out how to get anything onto his Samsung Galaxy. I have iphone and am technically challenged. I have managed to get the devices paired and get music onto it via blue tooth and itunes but it sounds weird so I'm guessing that's the compatibility between itunes files and mp3? So I am thinking that there has to be a way to store the music as mp3 and get that transferred onto the Galaxy? I have put the mp3 disc back in but now it won't recognise it and it doesn't come up in finder. Guessing this is because it is already in itunes? Really appreciate any help with this
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Kappy, we'll try Samsung. I have no idea if they are compatible, I surely hope so though. I have found work arounds for getting the address book and iCal synced in the discussions so hoping there is something that can be done for MP3's as well. My good old Nokia used to play music from my Mac no problem so I stupidly assumed the Samsung would to.

  • How can I get music onto my 2nd gen iPod Touch?

    My mum recently gave me her old iPod, a 2nd gen. My sister tried to upgrade it up to iOS 5 but couldn't.
    Every time I plug my iPod into charge it pops up in iTunes saying, "This iPod cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest vesion of iTunes."
    Alls well saying that, but my problem is I'm running on version 10.4.11 Snow Tiger on a MacBook Pro.
    When I go to download the iTunes it states that I need version 10.6.11 Snow Leopard.
    My mother and sister both have Snow Leopard and Snow Lion but they will not let me use their iTunes.
    What I need to know if there is anyway that I can get music onto my iPod without purchseing songs from the iTunes store.
    Can anyone help?
    Regards,

    I realized that.
    This has been an outstanding problem for many months.
    All I would like to know is if I can put music onto it atall..
    Thanks.

    Just plug in your Galaxy notepad into your computer. Open the notepad through the computer. When you see all the files on your notepad find the one for music. Then go to iTunes and click and drag the music you want into the music file on the notepad.

  • Getting music onto my Palm Zire 71

    I am very new to the Palm world, and I don't know a lot about computers, either.  Here's what I want to know:
    1. How do you get music onto an SD card?--Is there a slot on my computer where the card would go, and if so, how do I save music files to it?
    2. After I save my own CDS into a file on my compter, how do I get them onto the card?
    I have performed a hotsync, but it doesn't update the files on my palm.  So, I dont know if the cradle isn't working or what, but, is there anoter way to get music and other files onto the Palm?
    Any help would be greately appreciated.
    Thanks!

    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
    There are a few ways to get music onto your card so that it will play on your Zire.  The first way is by synchronizing with the Palm Desktop.  The Zire 71 Support Page has lots of information including a link to the multimedia guide which explains the process in detail.
    The second (and better) way is to drag and drop .mp3 files directly onto your SD card with a card reader...either one that is built-into your computer (if you don't know whether your computer has one or not, it probably does not), or with a USB card reader that you buy from any big box store ($10-20) which plugs into your USB slot.  The card should first be formatted in your Zire, using the Card Info application.  This should create the necessary file structure, including a folder called /audio where your music files would go.  You would take the card out of the Zire, insert it into your SD card reader, and your computer will recognize it as a removable drive.  Using Windows Explorer (or whatever the MAC equivalent is), you can just drag and drop the music files from their location on your computer onto the card, in the /audio folder.  (If the /audio folder does not already exist after you format the card in the Zire, you can create it on your computer.)
    Also, I think the largest SD card that the Zire 71 can use is a 1 GB plain SD (not SDHC) card.
    Let us know if this helps, or if this just leads to more questions.

  • Getting Music Onto my Charge

    I have had two Charges that I can't get music onto. I have looked at the posts that gave instructions on how to do it but my computer, or vice versa, will not recognize my phone. When I hook it up to the computer with the USB cable the instuructions say to look in the status bar and select USB connected. The problem is it does not show this option, there are no options. I have created a music folder but have not been able to get any music into it.
    I did try to take the card out of my phone and put it into the computer and download onto it that way. But again, it has not worked. It gives me a message saying I can't do it (I am sorry but I don't remember the specific message it gave as to why it would not work).
    Any help would be great. Tanks.

    Here is the easiest way I have found to move music to your phone or remove it from your phone.  It is the way I do it.  You should know that I use Windows XP SP3 on my laptop.  Here goes...
    START:  On your Charge phone go to Settings>Applications>Development and click on USB debugging so the red colored arrow is lit up (it shows).  You can reverse this after moving your music to the phone.
    Using the cable that came with the Charge connect it to a USB port on your PC.. You don't even have to turn on your phone but you can turn it on.  If a Windows screen comes up choose TAKE NO ACTION to close it.  You will not need it.
    Next, on your PC go to Windows Explorer to see all your folders and files.  In the left column go down the list and near the bottom you will see "Removable Disk G" (that's your phone) although it could be E, F, G, H, or whatever on your PC.  Click on the + sigh to the left of Removable Disk G.  A bunch of folders will open up.  Look for the one called MUSIC.  Finally you now can drag and drop songs that are already somewhere else in your PC to this folder on your phone.  When you are done close out everything but read my note below. 
    NOTE:  You don't have to but before unplugging the phone I suggest that you look at the ICONS at the right side bottom of you screen.  One of them will say "Safely Remove Hardware."  Click on it and you will get a massage or screen that it is safe to remove the hardware.  This always is the best way to remove a removable disk.  Now unplug your phone.
    Now you can use the APP Music Player already in your phone to play the songs on your phone.
    Also, you can now go back to START (above)  and un-check the USB Debugging you originally checked.
    BTW, page 68 in the manual will tell you how you can divide up these songs into unique Play Lists.
    Anytime you want to you can return the the folder MUSIC and add more songs or remove some songs.
    I type very slowly so if you REALLY like this please toss me a KUDO.  If it's not that good please forget it.

  • How do I get pictures from my iCloud account onto my samsung galaxy mega?

    I just got a Samsung Galaxy mega and I used to have an iPhone 4 so now how do i transfer my pictures from my iCloud account onto my samsung? Is there an app for the iCloud that I can use or is there some other way that I can retrieve them? I have little knowledge of iPhone and Samsung so if there's something I'm not doing right please let me know! But I have a whole bunch of pictures on my iPhone and I want them onto my samsung and I have no idea how to get them there! Thanks for your help!

    The easiest way to get them into your phone is to use Google Drive. I would assume that this is on the phone, and if you have a Google email account you have access to the drive. If you don't, it's free and will also get you sign-in to the Google Play Store for apps.
    There is a application for Macs for the Drive, but I would recommend avoiding it as it's been known to cause trouble. Just go to the Drive from your GMail webpage and upload the photos. Then on your phone open the Drive and download the photos.

  • Can I use iCloud to get songs from my iTunes onto my Samsung Galaxy 3?

    I just got a Samsung Galaxy S 3.  I have iTunes on my PC laptop. Can I use the iCloud to get my songs from my iTunes library onto my Galaxy?  Thank you!

    I'm not sure... is that something I would look for in their app store?  I am not too familiar with apps/widgets.  I tried looking in their (Google's) app store but couldn't find anything that seemed related to my question.

  • Can't get music onto iphone

    I have a whole library of songs on my itunes library. I got them all on my ipod ok but I cannot get them onto my iphone.
    Please help

    Have you sync'd your iTunes library with your iPhone? Most of the time music etc. is grayed out for the iPhone/iPod if you have it set to automatically sync. The only time it's not grayed out is if you've checked the option to "manage music manually". That may be why it's not letting you move it over manually. However if you've already sync'd it I don't know why you'd be trying to move stuff over manually anyway.
    You can also transfer items you bought on your iphone (like your iBook) to your iTunes library. Just click "File" then click "Transfer items from iPhone".
    Good luck!

  • How do I get music onto my ipod with the new itunes?

    I have a new ipod, and the new itunes. I cant find any itunes version information, but it downloaded on the 27/9/13
    The old itunes showed your library and ipod icons on the left, and I could simply drag music onto the ipod icon.
    With the new itunes, there is no ipod icon to drag music too.  I certainly dont want to put all my music onto ipod, or have it pick songs randomly.  I have way too much music for itunes, I basically drag some albums to itunes, copy them to the ipod, then delete them from itunes.  I have to do this for 2 reasons, one is that my music is spread over various places, and usually when you plug in an external drive it gives it a different letter, so you "lose" music, and secondly because much of my music doesnt have correct tags because I ripped it from my CDs before there was internet databases (yes I’m old).
    Any ideas how I get an album from a HD onto my ipod?
    Does anyone else find itunes inexplicably unintuitive?

    Hi hobbss,
    It sounds like you may want to show the sidebar in iTunes.  You can access it again by following this:
    iTunes 11: Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
    Show Sidebar - Choose View > Show Sidebar (this feature will display iTunes features on the left side of the application including Library, Store, Shared, Genius, and Playlists).
    Also, here is an article with information on how to sync media to your iPod:

    Thanx.

    You must use iTunes to "rip" your Audio CD and store the resulting files on your computer. Once you see the music in the iTunes Music Library, you use iTunes to transfer the music to your iPod.
    The process and information is contained in the iTunes Help files.
