Verizon doesn't let you do this. It will transfer the files but you can't do anything with any files that weren't purchased from the verizon music store.
You have to hack the phone's firmware to get around it.

:/ oh welll i guess i have to live with having to open the phone to listen to the songs and not being able to fast-forward. better than not having it on there right. well thanks for your help
well in comparison to my last 2 phones, the V and the enV. It is 100x better. its got a very solid feel, amazing features, i got used to the phone in less than a day. the fact that i CAN send files over bluetooth makes it that much better. and when it vibrates it doesnt make any noise like the V or the enV did. If you want a solid phone with a qwerty keypad and you liked the old enV i would say def buy it
Do you have a card reader? If you do just insert it and put all the music in the "music" folder. Its really easy. If u dont have a card reader...then get windows 
The mac won't recognize the phone, atleast from what ive tried (with my env and vx8700). Im just using windows under vmware. It's so much easier.

I am so buying this when my contract is renewed this August!! For my Chocolate i had to use the SD adapter for my microSD and put the MP3 files in the Music folder.....I had to put the card in the phone first, so that it would create the folders itself and then added the MP3's myself...but they have to be MP3 format...

well i was able to send files via blue tooth already but i cant put them into the music file b/c of the phones firmware. so my windows IS recognizing the phone, first phone verizon taht is computer friendly with bluetooth.

what do you mean by sd adapter cuz i have a card and all that stuff, but idk how to put the files into the music folder? would u be able to explain that in detail fo what i have to do cuz that is basically exact what i need
Ok if you have windows just plug in the phone using the USB cable and the computer should recognize it. then just put your mp3's in the folder that says "music"
Well my microSD came with an adapter to make it a regular sized SD card....then use a card reader to transfer the music.... I used my Nikon D50 since i have no card reader hahahaha
I got it to work!!!!
I just got an ENV2 last night after upgrading from a crap RAZR. I was able to hook up via bluetooth, transfer an .mp3 from my PB to the phone, and it plays fine! I moved it from the phone to the microSD card and it still plays. I have SW version VX910V03.
edit: the phone automatically put it in the music folder when I sent it over. I haven't tried .m4a files yet, but the mp3 works.

I can't wait to upgrade from my even worse LG Chocolate first gen. It randomly calls people and the touchscreen quits working sometimes haha.... EnV2 is in my future....
interesting update...
The first song I loaded worked fine. that was when I posted. I moved a second .mp3 over later, and it got put in the sounds folder not music. Haven't had time to research why it happened differently, they were both mp3's, but I'll post again if I come up with something.
