How do you play music from a playlist on an iPhone without using WiFi and iCloud?

I travel in a RV and frequently park in campgrounds that do not have WiFi. I've been told I can copy iTunes playlists (selected from my copied CDs on my Mac) onto my iPhone 5S. I can then, using a mini stereo jack go from the output on the iPhone to the aux input on my DVD player and thereby play my playlists of copied CD music on my RV sound system. All well and good except I tried my Music app on my iPhone and could not find a play function. I found the iTunes Radio but that only seemed to work with a WiFi connection. What am I missing?
As you can tell, I am not experienced with the iPhone although I've used a Mac for years. Is there a basic tutorial on how to accomplish my stated task or at least use the basic music function? I've tried to find something on the Apple website but haven't been able to find anything yet.
Thanks in advance.

Chris -
Those 2 playlists were a total of 498 songs. I have just been using the default rate when I load a CD and click on import into iTunes. Is there a better way? My second 2 playlists have about 330 songs plus about another 20 I'm going to load today and then stop and see about syncing them on my iPhone as well. I've gotten about half of my CDs imported. This is obviously a do-as-you-get-time task that will take quite a while. Not so much importing the CD, but listening to at least a couple bars of each song to see which I want to put on a playlist.

  • How can I transfer music from my iPad to my iPhone without using a computer/iTunes?

    Disclaimer:  I am actually asking this for a family member, but I don't have an answer for her either.
    My family member has an iPad with music on it currently.  This music is music bought from iTunes and music bought from other sources.
    Her computer died a few months ago and she does not intend on replacing it.
    She just bought an iPhone and would like to copy the music from her iPad to her new iPhone.
    I had originally thought that iTunes Match would work for this, but the Apple Support article regarding iTunes Match (iTunes Store: Subscribing to iTunes Match) suggests that it requires a computer w/ iTunes to do the initial update.
    I'm willing to consider approaches from either, Apple or third-party.
    If it helps, her iPad and iPhone are both running iOS 7.

    The answer is, "you don't".
    Music other than that purchased from the iTunes store had to be synced to the device using iTunes on a computer. The media should still exist on that computer. She can use the computer to sync the music to the new device.
    An iPad or iPhone is NOT a backup device. In order to set it up to sync to a new computer were she to replace hers, the media on the device would have to be erased before anything could be synced to it. Media synced to the device can not be synced back to a computer (without purchasing 3rd party software). Without a computer and iTunes, it's not possible to transfer media from one iDevice to another, even with 3rd party software.

  • How do you transfer music from iTunes to someone else iPhone

    I have music in iTunes from my iPhone, however, I want to transfer or sync this music to someone's iPhone - can this be done and how?

    It cannot be done (legally), as you own the music, not the other person. They will have to buy the music from iTunes, the same way you did.
    Unless, of course, it is not music purchased from the iTunes store. Then you could have them copy the music file to their computer and sync it to their iPhone from their computer.

  • HT1351 How do you sync music from pc to ipad

    How do you sync music from pc to ipad pc saying 10.7 version and asking ipad to update itunes but saying no update available

    If you are trying to sync them to the iBooks app on your iPad and they are in your computer's iTunes library (if not then you should be able to add ibooks, PDFs and digital-rights-free epbs via File > Add To Library), then you should be able to sync them via the Books tab in a similar way to how you are using the Photos and Music tabs to sync those items. Is that not working, and if not does your computer's iTunes give the impression that they are copying over ?

  • How to set alarm on iPhone 5 to play music from a playlist?

    I'd like to set alarm on my iPhone 5 to play music from a playlist or from a album in Music, i.e. when alarm goes off, it will play more than just one song like songs in a playlist. This setting option was present in my old iPods (iPod Classic and iPod 5th generation), but is not present in both new iPhone 5 and new iPod Touch. Or, does anyone know how to work around it? It would be nice to be woken up by one of my favorite playlists rather than having to listen to just one song over and over. Thank you. piamsakp

    Tell Apple to add this ability:

    As far as the app goes, I don't Know, as I don't use it. Just know you need an app to do playlists.

  • I want to play music from my playlist when I am using slideshow of my pictures in Ipad,  but I can only choose ONE SINGLE song, and it continuously repeates itself.  Is there a way to play the complete playlist while showing my pictures?

    You can start the playlist playing in the iPod app and then switch into the Photos app and start your (non-music) slideshow - as you've found out you can currently only select a single track in the Photos app. Whether that will change in iOS 5 I don't know, but you could try leaving feedback for Apple : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • How do i play music from internet

    how do i play music from the internet

    As roaminggnome said, you're question is a bit vague, but I'll try to help. If you've downloaded a song from the interent, proposing it's a legal way, the song will be saved in your downloads folder. You can take it out of your downloads folder by dragging it to another location, I presume you know how, but you might need to change the file format so it will play in iTunes. For this, you can use a third party audio convertor. One that is easy to use on the internet is http://audio.online-convert.com/convert-to-mp3
    Since we are trying to put the song in iTunes, we nned the mp3 or m4a format. At this website, you can just upload the song, don't change any of the settings, and click convert! Then you can download the converted song and drag it into iTunes like you would any other file. Hopefully this is sort of what you meant by playing downloaded songs from the internet...
