Transfer non-purchased music from iPhone 6s to SE I have an iPhone 6S with music from my ripped CD collection as I don't really buy music online. Spent all my money on CD's and cassette tapes years ago. Anyways, I would like to get the music off the 6S and put it on an SE. How can I make the iphone operate like a normal mp3 player or an iPod? Is there a way to make it so I can drag and drop music as I please? The problem I am experiencing right now is that when I have Music open I am not able to drag the songs off the phone and into the music player app on the SE. I can drag music into and out of the shared files option no problem, and into 3rd party music player apps. When I search online there are 3rd party apps availabe but all the websites seem kinda sketchy. Any suggestions? Am I the only one on Earth who would like to do this? Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thank you.

How to upload music to a new iPhone I have an iPhone 6s and just upgraded to the X-R. I have about 6000 songs I want to get on my new phone. Many are from old CDs so not downloaded from cloud. The library where my music is stored is on an old computer running on windows vista. (We are about to replace it) Therefore I cannot download a new version of iTunes to transfer the music. I really don’t want to lose my music as I have cultivated it over decades and have really serious playlists. The music is the whole reason I’ve stayed with iphone at all. how can I get my songs from old phone directly to new phone? Please help!

You need to download itunes on your computer and then sync your music to your phone.
