Need to transfer a bunch of mp3s from my work PC to my iPhone 4s.
******We are **not **allowed to download and install software on our work computers. ****** So I think iTunes is out. Did a bunch of googling and all answers required some PC application download. I do not have a working PC at home.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
It’s gonna take a while, but if you don’t have software, can you email them to yourself and download them on the iPhone one by one? Or just copy them all onto a USB stick and go to an internet cafe/library/friend’s house/somewhere with iTunes.
Thanks. I think emailing 1 gig or so of files and then downloading them would take more time than I can deal with.
I will look for help.
Thanks for confirming that there is no easy way to do this. This is the only thing I miss about my android.
Looks to me like you can upload to Google Drive using a web browser. Drive is otherwise similar to Dropbox. There’s a desktop client, but I don’t have it installed (don’t actually use Drive myself) and there’s an upload button on the web page. Clicking on it gives me a typical select file dialogue box.
Can you get your iPhone on your companies’ network?
If so, you can use the App “Files” to get them on the iPhone. I’m not sure if you can taken them out of the App database and put them in iTunes, but at least they’ll be on the phone.
I concur with Gorsnak, though I am a Dropbox user to his Google Drive. Upload the file from your computer using the web site, then launch the app on your iPhone and wait for it to download.
I didn’t see that browser-based uploading was possible with Dropbox actually, but then I didn’t look very hard either. I don’t use file-syncing much myself, usually move stuff manually. It just seemed like it would be bad form to tell the OP to ditch the iPhone for a proper mobile device. 
You guys are the best. Thanks!
Ugh. Google Drive web page is blocked here. Crap.
What’s to stop you from just tossing them on a thumb drive and taking them home? From there you can import them into your Itunes (or whatever you use) library like normal.
Nothing. Don’t have a working computer at home right now.
Checking the Dropbox web page, yes, you can upload from there. The icon looks like a piece of paper with a green upward-pointing arrow.
If you’re setting up a new Dropbox, using the link below will give both you and me an extra 500mb of space.
Isn’t there a USB host adapter or memory card reader accessory for the iPhone?
Wouldn’t you know it, dropbox is blocked at work too. Sillyness. Not sure why they block most cloud or ftp sites.
Will seek the help of a friend.
Thanks all.
