Hello to all,
I am new to the Mac, I was wondering how to get my iTunes music onto my Victor Reader Stream. On Windows, I always treated it like a flash drive, with multiple folders. I am assuming it works the same way on the Mac. I'm not sure where my media files are, or how to access them to get them onto my Stream. Any help is appreciated. Thank you,
Kayla

Your iTunes music is located in your home folder in the music folder. In the iTunes media folder, there should be a music folder, where your music should be sorted by artist.

Before you do this, however, you need to convert music files to alternate formats, as the Victor Reader does not support iTunes natively, to the best of my knowledge. To convert a song, select it and choose file>library>create AAC version, which I believe is supported by the stream.

Thank you. I accessed the files in another format. Now all that's left is to actually get the files into the music folder onto my Victor Reader. I'm assuming it's just a move to or copy to option, but I don't see it in the minu. How do you get the files into the other folders?

To copy a file, navigate to it in the music folder and press Command c. Then, navigate to your Stream's music folder, typically mounted on the desktop, and press Command v to paste it.
