Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to transfer music from my galaxy S4 to an external mp3 player through a usb cable..
Any idea how to achieve this would be great.
Thanks
That depends on where you got the music. Usually it's done the other way around or is available for download from whichever cloud service you originally bought it from.
I would copy or move it to your PC or MAC and then to the MP3 player. Via USB.
If you imported from CD originally, you can get it from your PC or MAC software - iTunes or Amazon's music library. I prefer iTunes because I import lossless music. (And I only have a few select MP3s on my phone; I have a 160 GB iPod Classic for my main music player.)
Again, you can use this standard software for the transfer. Makes the tagging easier so you keep all information.
If the source of the music on your phone is your little secret and you are paranoid about the Big Guys who make the software, you certainly can move directly it via USB or WiFi Direct. But only if your player has the appropriate connections. You can only sync with an iPod Classic. It has no wireless. And you cannot drag and drop. You must sync.
Depending on the player, I think you can just do it directly via USB using an app from the Play Store. Not sure which one is best.
Otherwise, use your computer to transfer the files.
Hope this helps some.
