How Do I Plug an MP3 Player Into My Computer?

You will need to plug an MP3 player into a computer if you wish to add files to or remove files from the MP3 player. The MP3 player's battery will charge whenever you connect the MP3 player to a computer that is turned on. The cord that was included with your MP3 player will enable you to plug the player into any computer that has a USB port.

Things You'll Need

• MP3 player cord

Instructions

1. Turn the computer on.

2. Plug the cord that came with the MP3 player into the player. On most MP3 players, the USB cord will connect to the headphones jack.

3. Connect the MP3 player cord's USB plug-in to an unused USB port on the computer. The player will be plugged into and synced with the computer.

Tips & Warnings

• Prevent the computer from powering down or entering "Sleep Mode." Otherwise, the MP3 player will no longer charge nor will it be synced with your computer.

• In order to sync your MP3 player with a software program like Windows Media Player, that program will need to be opened after you have connected the MP3 player to your computer.
