Put MP3s on Your MP3 Player

You can listen to music on your MP3 player in a matter of minutes!

Steps

  1. Plug your MP3 player into your computer.

  2. Go on the Desktop, click My Computer, then click "Removable Disc (x:), where x is a drive.
  3. Put a CD in and "Rip" the songs on to the computer.
  4. Go to where the ripped songs were saved and open up your MP3 Player's window.
  5. Drag-and-drop the songs from the folder and drop them into the MP3 Player's window.
  6. Close the windows and eject your MP3 Player using 1 of 2 ways:
    • Windows: Go to the hidden icons on the opposite side of where your Start Button is, click the little triangle to show hidden icons, click the icon of a gray rectangle and green arrow. When the speech bubble notifies you that it's safe to remove hardware, unplug your MP3 Player.
    • Mac: Drag the MP3 Player's icon from the desktop to the Trash. The wastebasket should turn into an eject sign. Drop it there then unplug your MP3 Player.

Tips

  • This procedure takes some time getting used to, so do not be frustrated when it doesn't work at first.

Warnings

  • Do NOT just unplug the MP3 player from the computer or you may lose songs or data.
