Hi Bert,
Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. I do not have a
notebook computer, my computer is a full size with a monitor and a hard
drive on a computer table.
I have over 4 GB of music, if I burn all of the music to CD's that
sounds like a lot of CD's to me to buy and a lot of hours to make copies of
the music. Yes I have the ability to burn CD's and have done that lots of
time.
Wouldn't it be better to put the music on a USB flash drive and save it
that way? I can buy a 4 GB and possibly a 2 GB USB flash drive which
would give me more space if I want to add more songs to my collection.
What do you think?
Thank you
Cindy

Hi Cindy,
Place the memory card into the notebook and copy all the files to a folder
on the desktop. This is actually a form of backing up. The music files are
in more than one place now.
The safest way to backup the music files is to burn them to a CD and move
them to a safe place, or two. Do you have the ability to burn CD's with
the Dell 4700 notebook? And if so is there burning software installed?

I need some help please. I have over 1300 songs in Dell Musicmatch. I
know I need to back them up, but I have no idea how to do this.
I use a MP3 player, and I have put music on the 1 GB memory card that is
with my MP3 player. I was able to that, but I have never worked with a
USB flash drive.
Do I buy a USB flash drive and copy all my music to it as a backup?
If so....I have no idea how to do that. I have a Dell computer Dimension
4700. There is a slot in the front to insert the flash drive. I made
the mistake of not having a DVD slot put on the computer, I have only a
CD slot as I knew I would not be watching movies on my computer, I
know..... a big mistake.
Thank you for any help. It is much appreciated.
