i. Transfer music and video files from PC.

1. Connect your Galaxy S4 to your PC using the USB data cable.
2. On your phone, a USB icon will appear in the top Notification bar. Drag the notification bar downwards and then tap on the Connected as a media device.

4. Open up your PC Windows Explorer, and you should see your Galaxy S4 shows up as a removable disk.
5. Access the phone storage via Windows Explorer. Here, you should see the Video and Music folders.
   
   
6. Simply drag/copy-and-paste your music or video files from your computer to the respective folders. On your Galaxy S4, the music and video players will automatically recognize the files.

4. Next, move to the right side and click the Sync tab.
5. Drag the music files, videos or even a playlist to the Sync list area. Note: You can drag these files from either the PC folders or Windows Media Player library.
6. Once you have all the files in the Sync list, click Start sync.
   
   
7. Now, move to the left, and click Sync status to verify if those files are successfully copied over to your phone.
   
   
8. Start playing those songs on your Galaxy S4.

2. Connect your Galaxy S4 to your PC using the USB data cable.
