I have all my music and audiobooks on my PC in iTunes. Normally, I just connect a lightning cable and drag over what I want. Sometimes, it will let me connect to my iPhone via wi-fi but it often doesn't see me phone (currently, it's not seeing my phone over wi-fi, possibly because I upgraded my PC recently).

Not too long ago, my lightning port on my phone stopped working reliably. I've tried cleaning it out but nothing has worked. I am hopefully going to get it fixed soon but the nearest Apple store is a bit of a drive and I'm not sure I can trust the local iFixit shop. I can charge with a magsafe charger, but I can't figure out a way to get my stuff from iTunes to my iPhone. Any workaround? I would prefer to get it onto the right apps on my phone (Music and Books), but if I have to use some other app for now until I get things fixed I'm open to that as well.

Thanks!
