To import a playlist
You can create playlists on your computer, then save these on your storage card. Music can access
the following playlist formats: M3U, WPL, and PLS.
1 On your computer, open a text file for editing.
2 On separate lines, enter all the music file names you want to include
in your playlist.
Notes
• The names you list in the file should be the names that appear
when you view the contents of your storage card through your
computer’s file system, not the names that appear in the list of
songs on your phone.
• Your phone will simplify the names and will not include track
numbers or file extensions (for example, .mp3).
3 Save the playlist file using .m3u as the file name extension (for example, MyMusic.m3u).
4 Copy the playlist file to the Music folder on the storage card. Follow the instructions in “To copy
music into the storage card” section earlier in this chapter.
Tip It is recommended that you create a Playlist folder inside your Music folder in the storage card
to hold all your playlist files.
