    yes a usb, which ive connected...erm the phone is a LG town GT350...thankyou
  • did you get a user manual with it?
  • If you have copied the songs to media player, then they are stored as a WMA file format. You need a ripper to create mp3 versions to use with the phone.

    Once that has been done, you can simply drag and drop when you have connected the phone by USB. Do not use the LG software as it's a bit flaky in connecting. The PC should see the phone as a removable drive when you plug it in, and you simply choose the folder you want, and then copy the files into it.

    Is that the booklet you look for two days later in the recycling bin as you don't know how to turn your phone on?

    Not necessarily, you can tell it to rip it as WMA, MP3 or WAV
