Use HP Play to sync music from your computer to your device
If you have music in your HP Play library on your computer, you can sync
the songs in your HP Play library to the Music app on your device. If you
have music in an iTunes library, the contents of that library are copied to
HP Play when you install it on your computer (see Install HP Play), and you
can then sync all your iTunes music to your device from HP Play. Music
you add to iTunes after you install HP Play is copied to HP Play
automatically.
You can set up HP Play to sync automatically with your device each time
you connect it to your computer (see Set up HP Play to sync with your
device), or, if you choose not to sync automatically, you can manually
sync HP Play with your device at any time (see Manually sync music from
HP Play to your device). Playlists sync one-way, from HP Play on your
computer to your device, and playlists synced from HP Play cannot be
changed on your device.
