Transferring Information From Your Computer

I bought a song through Amazon MP3 and want to transfer it to my computer
You can copy music files on your phone to your computer for use with a desktop music
player. For instructions, see "Copy Files Between Your Phone and Your Computer" on
page 92.
I copied a group of music folders from my computer, but I can't see or play
them on my phone
When you connect your phone to your computer in USB Drive mode, you can copy any file
onto your phone. However, each media application on your phone—Photos, Music, and
Videos—can display or play files in certain file formats only. If your media file is in an
unsupported format, you can't use it on your phone.
When I open the Palm Pre drive folder from my computer, I see subfolders. Do I
need to move my files into these folders?
The default folders are there to help you organize files you copy to and from your computer.
But you can copy files from your computer into any folder you want—you can create your own
folders, or just drag your files to the top level of the drive. As long as the file is in a supported
format, your phone can detect and open it.
Note
Section 4A: Troubleshooting
If you move a music file into the ringtones folder, the Music application
cannot find it.
