How to put songs on micro SD card?

Answer 1

There are various ways to send content to a device that uses microSD cards: with proprietary software utilities that either come with the device, or other editing or "ripping" software packages. This answer is for directly placing a digital file on the card from a Windows Operating System. Also, if you want to find out how to "grab" a movie from a DVD to a file on the computer first, that is a whole other answer (look up "ripping".)

If your computer has an SD slot, you can plug your microSD card into the larger SD adapter that usually comes with them, then place that into the slot. If your computer doesn't have an SD slot, you will have to get a "card reader" that plugs into a USB port (or use a player device to load it.)

Once you plug in -- if all goes as it should -- you will find that a new drive letter appears in My Computer, with a title such as "portable drive". You can now treat that as if it is a hard drive! Simply double-click on it & drag, or copy & paste, a movie file to it (some examples of formats are: .AVI; .WMV; .MOV.) It will probably take longer to save the file to the microSD card than it would if you were transferring it between two hard drives.

Now, to detach it without accidentally unplugging during writing -- and possibly corrupting the contents -- look for a new icon in the Quick Lauch bar to the bottom right of the screen. It will have a green arrow and its Tool Tip will read "Safely Remove Hardware." Double-click it and follow the directions on the window that pops up. That's it!

If your computer has an SD slot, you can plug your MicroSD card into the larger SD adapter that usually comes with them, then place that into the slot. If your computer doesn't have an SD slot, you will have to get a "Memory Card Reader" that plugs into a USB port. (or use a standalone player/device to load it.)

Once you plug in, if all goes as it should, you will find that a new drive letter appears in My Computer, with a title such as "portable drive". You can now treat that as if it is a hard drive. Simply double-click on it and drag or copy & paste a movie\game file to it. It will probably take longer to save the file to the MicroSD card than it would if you were transferring it between two hard drives.

Now, to detach (unplug) it safely from the PC, without possibly corrupting the contents, look for a new icon in the Quick Launch bar to the bottom right of the screen. It will have a green arrow and its "Tool Tip" will read "Safely Remove Hardware." Double-click it and follow the directions on the window that pops up. Enjoy!

You put your micro SD card into the adapter, and put the adapter into anywhere that supports SD cards. Then you open the card's folder, and it should have a music folder, if anything. In that particular folder, you find the songs that you want to put on there, and put everything in that folder, and wait a few seconds, depending on how many songs you're putting on there. All your music should be on there as soon as you remove the memory card. Hope I helped ya :)

SD Cards are seen as removable storage by Windows (assuming you are not using a Mac). In order to run a program (game) from removable storage you need to install the program onto the card itself. However, this may take up a lot of space on the card, especially if its a large graphical game, so it may not make sense for games like Oblivion or Assassin's Creed that require gigabytes of space.

To install a program to run from removable storage: Run the program setup (either from the CD/DVD or downloaded file), usually the setup routine will allow you to choose the directory/folder to install in. (this may also be under advanced setup options). Navigate the setup to install on your SD Card, which should be listed under the main "Computer" heading. If there is enough space available on the card, the program should install. You should now be able to run the program from an icon installed on your desktop or from the SD Card folder in windows explorer.

However, I highly recommend installing a helper program, like Portable Apps (www.portableapps.com), which is a freeware mini-program that stores only the necessary files needed to run a program on removable storage. Its user friendly and makes running stuff from cards a snap; the only downside is that not all programs will install this way and if you run into trouble, you'll be at the mercy of user forums, because the freeware won't readily be supported.
