Sync music via Samsung Kies
If you want to synchronize your music collection with your Android phone, Samsung's in-house sync software Kies is the perfect choice.

- To do this, simply click in the open gravel window under "View" -> "Switch mode" to "Normal mode".
Connect Android device and prepare everything
- Now connect your Android device to the PC. Windows may automatically install drivers that enable smooth cooperation with Kies.
- When the initialization of the device is completed, this appears in Kies under "Connected devices".
- Now simply click on the "Music" tab under "Library". Now you can choose whether you want to transfer your entire music library to the Samsung mobile phone or only a certain music track or a single playlist.
