We just got a hand me down tablet I think it is a 'chrome book'? It is an android system, whatever that means.

I want to load music on it and mount to my bumpboxx.


I don't understand how to get a MP3 file on it. If I hook the USB cord to my PC computer, it will charge but doesn't know there is a device plugged in to drag files to.

Anyone know these things? Does it have bluetooth? I have an itunes account and a lot of MP3 files on my PC I want to load on it.


How?


Thanks!

There looks to be a slot for a mini SD card but there isn't one in it. I will have to see if I have something laying around to try.

Joe, if you connect the tablet to your pc with the usb cord whilst switched on it should give you the option on the tablet to switch to usb mode. You can then load either the tablets own memory or the inserted micro sd card with your tunes.

Usually the tablet is connectable with WiFi or Bluetooth....

Or you have to implement it in the existing network. Maybee you have a access point or a router where the pc is already connected
So then look in the adjustment from the tablet. I find per WiFi is my preferred choice.

or you connect it to the mobile phone. But only when you use no iPhone. These both operating systems are not compatible.

I couldn't find this option anywhere..... then I noticed the USB symbol on the top left of the tablet screen and I dragged it down with my finger and that's where the USB mode option was. Right now I think I am copying some files over, I will update if it worked. I just opened the MP3 file folder I had on my computer, copied the files, and pasted them in the tablet 'music' folder.

Looks like it holds about 430 songs before it tells me I need more space.

Dont forget if it has a micro SD card slot you can bang a 32GB bad boy in there and fill it up, this will give space for 1000s of songs. Something like this:
