How To Put Music On To An Android Motog2 Phone

[countrykid]

I've never needed music on my phone but am walking the Pennine Way soon(268 miles), so some would come in handy!! A lot of my CD collection is on my laptop (some in Itunes and some in Windows Media Player??). Is there a way to transfer songs from the laptop to the phone? Also is there a reliable/trustworthy app that enables tracks to be downloaded off the internet to be played without the need for an internet connection eg downloaded to the phone and stored on it as most of the time I will not have phone signal etc. Ideally I don't want a subscription service as my needs are short term re music on phone, although having said that, I might get used to it and add to it. I'm not that tech savvy so needs to be simple process!!! Thanks

I don't have an answer but looking forward to see if anyone can help, I too have all my music on laptop, I used to put it on my new Nokia's at a time, now these smart phones, androids are in, I don't know how to get my music onto the phone, still walk around with the old Nokia just to see old videos and listen to my music

Plug a cable in to your laptop USB port and the other end in to your phone charging socket.

The phone should appear as a device icon your laptop.

On your laptop open the icon to the phone which shows all the folders on the phone. Find the "Music" folder on the phone.

Now find all the music files on your laptop and just drag (copy) the music files across from the laptop to the phone folder.

Then unplug the cable and play the music on your phone.

Thanks gilbert53. That does sound simple. I'll try it tomorrow. There are a few songs I don't have on laptop. Any help/ recommendations for an app/site to download from will be appreciated
