Backing Up Your Downloaded Music Files
When 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 device is lost or damaged, or if you buy a new device.
1. Use your computer to navigate to the Music folder of your device’s internal storage (that is, go to this
path: \Internal Storage\Music).
2. 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.
