I had the chance to buy a pretty much mint condition Lumia 925 for £25 last night, so I didn't hesitate at that price.(to use as a media player) However, this phone only comes with built in memory. This is where I'm having a problem. I wrongly assumed that I would simply plug it into my mac and transfer my music across, but it seems not to recognise the phone. Anybody had this problem, and is there a solution ? Thanks in advance.
Have you downloaded windows phone connect ? http://allaboutwindowsphone.com/features/item/21192_How_to_Use_Microsofts_old_Wind.php or http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/35607/windows-phone
The first link is way beyond my capabilities, the second doesn't exist any more. Thanks for trying though.
Download a Windows emulator (VMWare Fusion or Parallels), then plug your 925 in. Windows 8 or 10 should auto recognize it.
I found a way to get my photos and videos across, I just googled Nokia photo transfer, and the first on the list worked ! Still looking to get at least some music across, but I'll get there.
