Put Music Onto a PS3

If you have a PS3, you probably want to know how to load it with some of your favorite music. Using an MP3 player and your computer, you can easily copy songs onto your device. See Step 1 to get started.

Steps

  1. Get your MP3 player or memory stick
  2. Insert it into your computer.
  3. Download the desired songs onto your MP3 player or USB memory stick
  4. When finished, take out your MP3 player/stick.
  5. Insert your MP3/stick into your PS3, (use the right hand USB port on a 2 USB port model)
  6. Go to the 'Music' tab
  7. Go to your MP3 player in that tab (or USB device..if there is nothing but playlist then use a different USB stick)
  8. Press 'triangle'
  9. Go to display all.
  10. Then, copy all of the songs that you want to put onto your PS3. To do that, press 'triangle' on your selected song(s) and press 'X'.
  11. When you've finished that, go back to the original 'Music' tab.
  12. If you want to put them into a playlist (group), go to 'playlist' and press 'X'
  13. Go to 'Create New Playlist' and press 'X'.
  14. Enter the playlist's name.
  15. When you have done that, put all the songs that you want into the playlist. To do that, go to the song(s) you want and press 'Triangle'.
  16. Press 'Add to Playlist.'
  17. You're done!

Tips

  • If there is no device under music except playlist, use a different memory stick. I tried an Adata C803 4GB stick and it was unrecognized, but a cheap old 512 MB Dane Elec worked great.

Warnings

  • MP3's are allowed on all PS3 systems. But WMA files are only permitted when you have the internet.

Things You'll Need

  • PS3
  • MP3 Player/memory stick
  • Some sort of MP3 song downloader(USB cord for MP3 - Internet or anything that has a USB connecter)
  • Internet (optional)
