Okay, as a middle aged computer illiterate, I need to know if someone can tell me what to do. I bought mp3 music from amazon.com to download (?) onto my mp3 player, but can't figure out how to do it. I've got some amazon cloud thing with the music on my desktop, but haven't the least idea how to get it to my player.
Is this a no brainer for anyone here, or am I out of luck until dh comes home?
TIA!

its not an IPOD right? ipods you can import the music into your itunes (mine does mp3 files automatically) and then you can sync your ipod up to add them.
If it is a generic mps player, usually you can connect it, go to the start menu and open up the removable storage and drag and drop the mp3 files into it.

Generic? Has it gotten to that point where anything but an i-pod is generic?
Bullcrap.
One can log their mp3 player into any source (windows) that is compatible with their device.
If you don't want to pay their monthly fee (usually around $15 per month) for millions of free downloads, then just rip the CD to your computer, then transfer it to your device.
i-pods, schmi-pods. Apple-core - baltimore.....
I have nothing against apple, but this attitude that if you don't have an electronic device that has a logo of a piece of fruit with a bite out of it....
Whatever.....:smoochy:

You need the MP3 shaker bottle and the MP3 funnel attachment (both sold seperately) ! :duh:

Apparently, if you click around enough, you're bound to click on something that will help.
Thanks all!

Libby,
What kind of device do you have? Perhaps a link would help.

Never had a problem getting music from computer to Ipod. Try getting all the music from your Ipod to computer after you reload Itunes and it dumps everything you had in there. :banghead: But....there is a way. Itunes never put that capability in, but if you look online there are several ways to copy the files back into your computer so that Itunes recognizes them.
