没有直接的方法可以将音乐文件从Windows计算机发送到Apple设备 - iPhone、iPad 和 iPod touch。您需要使用 iTunes、云存储服务(cloud storage services)或第三方数据传输工具。
我们将向您展示如何使用 iTunes 和云服务将音乐从 PC 传输到 iPhone。即使您是 iPhone 新用户，您也会发现这些步骤非常简单。
使用 iTunes无线传输和同步音乐(Sync Music Wirelessly)
此方法需要在两台设备（PC 和 iPhone）上都有互联网连接，最好是Wi-Fi 。(Wi-Fi—on)从Apple 网站(Apple’s website)或Microsoft Store安装最新版本的 iTunes，然后按照以下步骤操作：
- 选择菜单栏上的帐户，然后选择(Account)登录(Sign In)。
- 在对话框中输入您的Apple ID 电子邮件(Apple ID email)和密码，然后选择(password)登录(Sign In)。当 iTunes 同步并显示您的音乐库时，继续执行下一步。
- 必须在 iTunes 上启用 iCloud音乐库(Music Library)才能使此方法起作用。因此，选择iTunes 菜单栏上的Edit并选择(Edit)Preferences。使用Ctrl +逗号(comma)( , ) 键盘快捷键可以更快地访问。
- 前往“常规(General)”选项卡，选中“ iCloud 音乐库(iCloud Music Library)”框，然后选择“确定(OK)”以保存更改。
- 在菜单栏（左上角）上选择 File 并选择Add File to Library(Add File to Library)。或者，按Ctrl + O打开“添加到库”窗口。
- 选择您要传输的歌曲，然后选择打开(Open)。
- iTunes 会将歌曲上传到与您的Apple ID关联的所有设备上的(Apple ID)Apple Music资料库。选择搜索栏旁边的移动圆圈图标以查看歌曲上传/传输进度。(moving circle icon)
- 在侧边栏的“库”部分中选择“最近添加(Recently Added)”以查看音乐库中的歌曲。
打开 iPhone 的音乐(Music)应用程序，前往图书馆(Library)选项卡，然后检查“最近添加”部分。您应该会在列表中看到您上传到 iCloud音乐(Music)库的歌曲。
使用有线(A Wired)连接传输音乐(Music)
此方法不需要互联网连接。您只需要一根USB数据线和 iTunes。诀窍是使用中介应用程序将歌曲发送到您的 iPhone。
通过有线连接发送音乐的一个主要缺点是歌曲不会同步到您的 iCloud音乐库(Music Library)。因此(Hence)，您无法在 iPhone 上的Apple Music应用中播放它们。
使用USB电缆将 iPhone 连接到Windows PC ，然后按照以下步骤操作：
- 点击iPhone 上的允许(Allow)以授予您的 PC 访问媒体文件的权限。
- 启动 iTunes 并在授权提示中选择继续。(Continue)
- 接下来，解锁您的 iPhone，点击提示上的信任(Trust)，然后输入您的 iPhone 密码。
确保(Make)不要跳过第二步和第三步。否则，您将无法将文件从计算机传输到 iPhone。下一步是将您的Apple ID或 iCloud 帐户链接到 iTunes。如果您的帐户已链接到 iTunes，请跳至步骤 #。(Jump)
- 选择媒体选择菜单旁边的iPhone或移动设备图标。(Mobile Device icon)
- 选择侧边栏上的文件共享(File Sharing)，然后选择将充当 PC 和 iPhone 之间中介的应用程序。
您可以选择任何应用程序，但我们建议使用媒体播放器作为中介或文件共享(File Sharing)应用程序。歌曲将添加到 iPhone 上媒体播放器应用程序的音乐库中。我们将使用VLC 媒体播放器(VLC Media Player)作为本教程的文件共享应用程序。(File Sharing)
- (Drag)将要传输的歌曲拖放到[ App] 文档([App] Documents)部分。
- 选择完成(Done)以完成音乐传输。
iTunes 会将歌曲作为音频文件传输到您的 iOS 设备。使用“文件”应用程序(Files app)或第三方媒体播放器访问 iPhone 上的歌曲。
- 打开媒体播放器以访问歌曲。或者，打开文件(Files)应用程序，前往浏览(Browse)部分，点击在我的 iPhone(On My iPhone)上，然后打开应用程序的文件夹。
假设(Say)您选择Chrome作为文件传输应用程序（在步骤 5 中），请在文件应用程序中打开(Files)Chrome文件夹以访问歌曲。
使用云服务
您还可以将歌曲上传到云存储服务，然后在 iPhone 上远程访问它们。仅当您要发送几首歌曲时才使用此方法。不建议使用云服务来传输您的整个音乐库。当然，除非您有无限的互联网计划。
另一个缺点：您无法在Apple Music应用中播放通过云服务传输的歌曲。您可以在云存储应用程序中播放它们或通过第三方媒体播放器在本地收听。
我们将向您展示如何使用Google Drive 和 Dropbox(Google Drive and Dropbox)将歌曲从Windows PC 复制到您的 iPhone。
使用 Google Drive 将音乐从 PC 传输到 iPhone(Transfer Music from PC to iPhone with Google Drive)
从App Store安装Google Drive应用程序，使用您的(Google Drive)Google帐户登录，然后按照以下步骤操作：
- 打开您 PC 的网络浏览器，登录您的Google Drive帐户，然后上传歌曲。
- 在您的 iPhone 上启动Google Drive 应用程序(Google Drive app)并打开包含您从 PC 上传的歌曲的文件夹。点按一首歌曲即可在Google 云端硬盘(Google Drive)应用中播放。
- 要将歌曲下载到您的 iPhone(download a song to your iPhone)，请点击歌曲下方的三点菜单图标，然后选择(three-dot menu icon)打开(Open in)方式。
- 点击操作菜单上的保存到文件。(Save to Files)
- 选择您的媒体播放器的应用程序文件夹，然后点击保存(Save)。如果您没有媒体播放器，请将文件保存在新的或预先存在的文件夹中。
使用 Dropbox 将音乐从 PC 传输到 iPhone(Transfer Music from PC to iPhone with Dropbox)
如果您的Google Drive 存储配额已用完(Google Drive storage quota is maxed out)，Dropbox是一个易于使用的替代方案。在您的 iPhone 上安装 Dropbox(Install Dropbox) ，如果您没有Dropbox帐户，请创建一个帐户，然后按照以下步骤操作：
- 在 PC 的网络浏览器上访问您的Dropbox帐户，然后将歌曲上传到您的首选文件夹。
- 在 iPhone 上启动Dropbox应用并打开歌曲文件夹。点击右上角的选择图标(select icon)，然后选择要传输到 iPhone 的歌曲。
- 点击导出(Export)并在操作菜单上选择保存到文件。(Save to Files)
- 等待(Wait)Dropbox下载歌曲并将它们保存到文件(Files)应用程序中的首选文件夹中。
将音乐导入您的 iPhone
请记住(Remember)，iPhone 支持以下音频格式：MP3、M4A、M4R、M4B、AAC、WAV和AIFF。如果您的 iPhone 无法播放歌曲，则可能是歌曲格式不受支持。将歌曲转换(Convert the song)为兼容格式并将其重新发送到您的 iPhone。
要将音乐从 iPhone 复制到 PC，您需要Xender(Xender)等第三方文件共享应用程序。有关全面的说明，请参阅有关transferring files from iPhone/Android to PC的教程。
How to Transfer Music From PC to iPhone
There’s no direct way to send music files from a Windows computer to Apple devices—iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Yoυ’ll neеd tо use iTunes, cloud storage services, or third-party data transfer tools.
We’ll show you how to transfer music from PC to iPhone using iTunes and cloud services. Even if you’re a new iPhone user, you’ll find the steps pretty straightforward.
Transfer and Sync Music Wirelessly with iTunes
This method requires an internet connection—preferably Wi-Fi—on both devices (PC and iPhone). Install the latest version of iTunes from Apple’s website or Microsoft Store and follow the steps:
- Select Account on the menu bar and choose Sign In.
- Enter your Apple ID email and password in the dialog boxes and select Sign In. Proceed to the next step when iTunes syncs and displays your music library.
- It’s essential to have iCloud Music Library enabled on iTunes for this method to work. So, select Edit on the iTunes menu bar and select Preferences. Use the Ctrl + comma (,) keyboard shortcut for quicker access.
- Head to the General tab, check the iCloud Music Library box, and select OK to save the change.
- Select File on the menu bar (in the top-left corner) and select Add File to Library. Alternatively, press Ctrl + O to open the “Add to Library” window.
- Select the songs you want to transfer and select Open.
- iTunes will upload the songs to your Apple Music library on all devices linked to your Apple ID. Select the moving circle icon next to the search bar to check the song upload/transfer progress.
- Select Recently Added in the “Library” section of the sidebar to view the songs in your music library.
Open your iPhone’s Music app, head to the Library tab, and check the “Recently Added” section. You should see the songs you uploaded to the iCloud Music library on the list.
Transfer Music Using A Wired Connection
This method doesn’t require an internet connection. All you need is a USB cable and iTunes. The trick is to send songs to your iPhone using an intermediary app.
One major downside of sending music over a wired connection is that the songs don’t sync to your iCloud Music Library. Hence, you cannot play them in the Apple Music app on your iPhone.
Connect your iPhone to your Windows PC using a USB cable and follow the steps below:
- Tap Allow on your iPhone to grant your PC access to your media files.
- Launch iTunes and select Continue on the authorization prompt.
- Next, unlock your iPhone, tap Trust on the prompt, and enter your iPhone’s passcode.
Make sure you don’t skip steps two and three. Otherwise, you won’t be able to transfer files from your computer to your iPhone. The next step is to link your Apple ID or iCloud account to iTunes. Jump to step # if your account is already linked to iTunes.
- Select the iPhone or Mobile Device icon next to the media selection menu.
- Select File Sharing on the sidebar and select the app that’ll act as the intermediary between your PC and iPhone.
You can select any app, but we recommend using a media player as the intermediary or File Sharing app. The songs are added to the music library in the media player app on your iPhone. We’ll use the VLC Media Player as the File Sharing app for this tutorial.
- Drag and drop the songs you want to transfer to the [App] Documents section.
- Select Done to complete the music transfer.
iTunes will transfer the songs to your iOS device as audio files. Use the Files app or third-party media players to access the songs on your iPhone.
- Open the media player to access the songs. Alternatively, open the Files app, head to the Browse section, tap On My iPhone, and open the app’s folder.
Say you chose Chrome as the file transfer app (in step 5), open the Chrome folder in the Files app to access the songs.
Use Cloud Services
You can also upload songs to cloud storage services and then access them remotely on your iPhone. Use this method only if you’ll be sending a few songs. Using cloud services to transfer your entire music library isn’t advised. Except, of course, you have an unlimited internet plan.
Another downside: you cannot play songs transferred via cloud services in the Apple Music app. You can play them in the cloud storage app or listen locally via third-party media players.
We’ll show you how to use Google Drive and Dropbox to copy songs from a Windows PC to your iPhone.
Transfer Music from PC to iPhone with Google Drive
Install the Google Drive app from the App Store, sign in with your Google account, and follow the steps below:
- Open your PC’s web browser, sign in to your Google Drive account, and upload the song(s).
- Launch the Google Drive app on your iPhone and open the folder containing the songs you uploaded from your PC. Tap a song to play it in the Google Drive app.
- To download a song to your iPhone, tap the three-dot menu icon below the song and select Open in.
- Tap Save to Files on the Action Menu.
- Select your media player’s app folder and tap Save. If you don’t have a media player, save the file in a new or pre-existing folder.
Transfer Music from PC to iPhone with Dropbox
If your Google Drive storage quota is maxed out, Dropbox is an easy-to-use alternative. Install Dropbox on your iPhone, create a Dropbox account if you don’t have one, and follow these steps:
- Access your Dropbox account on your PC’s web browser and upload the songs to your preferred folder.
- Launch the Dropbox app on your iPhone and open the songs folder. Tap the select icon in the top-right corner and select the songs you want to transfer to your iPhone.
- Tap Export and select Save to Files on the Action Menu.
- Wait for Dropbox to download the songs and save them to your preferred folder in the Files app.
Import Music to Your iPhone
Remember that the iPhone supports the following audio formats: MP3, M4A, M4R, M4B, AAC, WAV, and AIFF. If your iPhone fails to play a song, it’s likely in an unsupported format. Convert the song to a compatible format and resend it to your iPhone.
To copy music from iPhone to PC, you’ll need third-party file-sharing apps like Xender. Refer to this tutorial on transferring files from iPhone/Android to PC for comprehensive instructions.
