Backing Up Your Downloaded Music FilesWhen you purchase and download a music file from the Sprint Music Store, you get two versions of the song: one to download and play on your device (file type: AAC+), and another to download from http://musicstore.sprint.com and play on your computer (file type: WMA). The AAC+ files downloaded to your device can only be played on your device and on your account, and once they have been downloaded, they cannot be downloaded again without being repurchased.

Sprint recommends you back up your AAC+ music files to your computer so you can access the files in case your microSD card is lost or damaged, or if you install a new microSD card.

To back up your downloaded music files:

1. Connect your device using the USB Sync cable.

2. Use your computer to navigate to the microSD card’s Music folder.

3. Select and copy the music files to a folder on your computer’s hard drive.

Note: Although you can store AAC+ files on your computer, they will only be playable on your device and on your account. If you copy the files to a new microSD card, you will need to create a folder on the card called “MUSIC” to be able to play the music files.
