Help needed with an LG KC550

I am trying to transfer music from my pc to my LG, but everytime I do it, my pc says "not enough storage is available to complete the operation". I know this is not the case as I only have about 5 songs on my phoned and I bought a new 2gb sd card. The only way I can do it, is to transfer the files from PC to my old nokia and then from my Nokia to my LG.

I don't have a data cable as I have always been able to do it via my bluetooth.

Any ideas?

  • I have a different phone and via bluetooth there are 2 "drives" one is the internal phone memory the other the SD card. I have to pick the right card (the higher letter) to put material into the SD card not the (small) phone memory.

    Hope this helps.

    Sounds like the BT transfer is sending the files to the memory on the phone rather than the sd card.
    There maybe a setting on the phone to change the default location to the card. If not, what about a card read/writer and just drop the file on the card from the pc ?

    Jon - this is what I thought. I have searched the phone to see if I can say always save to the bigger sd card but can't seem to find it. Yes the other alternative would be a card reader, I was just hoping to set it up the same as my Nokia.

    Tell you what I have found that's different. On my PC (which runs Vista) my Nokia in properties is set up as a 'mobile', the LG says 'cordless phone'. Then when I select to see what the services each has the Nokia has lots of ticked boxes one of which is music files. The LG dosen't have this. I have tried to re-pair them so that the LG is showing as a mobile but I can't seem to get it to change what the type of device it is. Any ideas?

    I have this mobile but the above is wrong....
    you DONOT have this option with LG KC550.
    By default whatever you xfer goes into phone's memory which is barely 14mb.....

    what i normally do is, i've got a memory adaptor i use that to plug in to my pc and xfer the music into the songs folder.

    Hope this helps.

    Baldude - can you change to the sd memory as the default, as this is what I am wanting.
