No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Alright, I've never used iTunes. I've never used an iPhone either. Full disclosure on that.
But I'm having difficulty even understanding your issue. Either iTunes has some propriatary bullshit that I'm unaware of, like DRM, or you're just not seeing the obvious.
So right now, I don't understand the core concept of the issue. What is preventing you from taking a cable, plugging the cable into your phone, plugging the other end into the PC, opening the folder on your pc with your mp3's, opening the folder in your iPhone with your mp3's, highlight the files on your PC, right click, copy, then right click inside the older on your iphone, paste, and wait for them to transfer?
Me typing that out took 10x longer than the actual action, and you reading it took 2x longer than the actual action.
I don't understand the issue here.
The iPhone is stopping them from doing all that, which you'd know if you'd ever used one. The phone's filesystem does not appear to the pc as a mountable external volume for you to copy shit in and out of it. You have to move the files over network somehow, through a smb share or whatever.
They said they never used one, my friend.
Yeah exactly. So why make that comment?
Could put them on a usb drive instead then use an OTG cable to copy them off the USB drive to the phone?
Yes.
But iOS can also connect to SMB shares now, so you can just share your music folder via Samba/Windows File Sharing, skipping the need to copy onto a flash drive first.
Windows file sharing is often too much effort to get working, I'd just use a usb if I had an iPhone 😅
Why would you waste your time writing this when you don’t have any knowledge of the issue?
LLM slop would be better than your contribution.
What are you doing?
For real lol. And that last bit on their comment is pure irony. I don’t understand why anyone upvoted that because that is the exact kind of comment meant for downvoting.
