How to Transfer Music From iPhone to Mac or PC
August 31, 2008 | Apple | 18 CommentsHere is the quick steps how to transfer music or files at your iPhone to Mac or PC. Both of them have different way. Because Mac is one of Apple products, you can transfer it without any sofware. And here the steps how to transfer music from your iphone.

1. Transfer Music/Files from iPhone to Mac
Before you transfer the files, please make sure your iTunes has been closed.
- Connect your iPhone to your computer via USB cable. After done, the files names will appear in the Device list.
- Open the library list that you want to export files, and then check the file(s) you want to export in the file list.
- Click the iPod to Mac button to start exporting files. Otherwise, you could also choose the Import to Mac option from the Action menu, and then export the files from your iPhone to your Mac PC.
- When iPod to Mac Transfer is started, it will modify the automatic synchronization of music/video to manual synchronization between iPod and iTunes.
2. Transfer Music/Files from iPhone to PC
There are many sites which give you transfer files like mp3 from iPhone to PC but with Winamp (free software) you can do it without spend money. Here is the steps:
- Close iTunes – if it’s running – and launch Winamp
- Plug your iPhone to the computer with the USB cable.
- Winamp displays a small window called “transfer of metadata.” When that window closes, the iPhone music library will appear on the Winamp Media under “devices”
- Now you can freely copy songs from the iPhone to the computer by selecting the files on the iPhone list and selecting “copy disk drive” in the context menu. Synchronization also works the other way: select the files to your library and transfer them to the iPhone by selecting the “Send” in the context menu.
- When you’re done, eject the iPhone Winamp. Now you’ll have to force the iPhone to reload the song database (otherwise it will use a cache one). Simply launch the application iPod, then press the Home button for about five seconds, until you return to the home screen. Then launch the new iPod tool and your new songs will be transferred there.
