Setting up Apple music on Echo dot

You Can Now Ask Alexa to Play Apple Music with Amazon Echo Controlling home by voice is going to be a lot of fun. Amazon Echo, a nine-inch black cylinder, is such a smart speaker that connects to the voice-controlled intelligent personal assistant service Alexa. You can use Amazon Echo to do certain things like play music, set alarms, make to-do-list, order items from Amazon, and control a smart home. To play an audio? It becomes extremely simple when having an Amazon Echo. Instead of tapping here and there on the phone, you only need to hook up your account to the Echo, then simply ask Alexa to play whatever you want. Unsurprisingly Echo includes Amazon's own music services, as well as some others such as Spotify, Pandora. So what about other streaming services such as Apple Music? Does Amazon open to have Apple Music on the Echo? Is it possible to stream Apple Music to Amazon Echo? The post would answer these questions and show you how to play Apple Music on Amazon Echo by asking Alexa.

Apple Music does not come to Amazon Echo

Amazon Echo is capable of playing music from other sources and streaming music from various services, including Spotify, Pandora, iHeartRadio, and Amazon Music. How about Apple Music? Unfortunately there is no support for Apple Music at the moment.
When will Apple Music come to Amazon Echo? According to a report from Bloomberg, Amazon's Dave Limp was quoted as saying, "We'd love to have Apple, but they're not super big." Perhaps Amazon thought Apple Music is not quite big enough to consider integration even though Apple Music has already racked up more than 20 million paid subscribers in two years since announced in 2015.

Use the Amazon Echo as a Bluetooth speaker to Play Apple Music

Although Apple Music is not native supported by Amazon Echo, Apple Music subscribers can still stream songs through the device, it's just that they'll need to pair their iPhone or iPad to the Echo and stream it from their phones instead. For people who also want to play music from iTunes library with Amazon Echo, they should also make it via Bluetooth. In this way, Amazon Echo is used as a Bluetooth speaker which does not make it unique.

Here are the steps to stream Apple Music on Amazon Echo via Bluetooth:
  • Go to Settings. Then, tap on Bluetooth and toggle the button to the on position.
  • You'll now see your Amazon Echo device listed under My Devices. Tap on it and it'll pair with your phone or tablet.
  • Navigate to your Music application where your Apple Music are accessible and start playing them.
Now, Apple Music songs should be heard coming from your Amazon Echo device instead of your mobile device speaker.
Link Apple Music to Alexa on Amazon Echo Pairing your device with the Echo using Bluetooth and selecting it as the audio output is an option to stream Apple Music from your iPhone. It is not a bad solution. But if what you intend to do is get Apple Music on Amazon Echo by using Alexa, then uploading Apple Music songs to Amazon is a great way. You can upload your Apple Music collection to your music library on Amazon and then stream the Apple Music through your Alexa device.
Before importing Apple Music to Amazon, we still have one thing to solve. That is, removing DRM from Apple Music or the songs from Apple Music could not be recognized and uploaded to Amazon successfully. Here we use Apple Music Converter to convert Apple Music tracks and playlists to plain DRM-free MP3 to walk you through.
$39.95 Buy Now (Mac) $39.95 Buy Now (Windows)Click the + button on the top or anywhere on the center to open the Add window. The Apple Music converter detects the whole iTunes music library automatically, so that you could simply select any playlist you saved or any track you prefer, then press OK to confirm.

The chosen Apple Music songs are displayed on the main panel of the Apple Music Converter. Click the Gear button on the top right to open the Preference window where you could set the output format, audio quality, conversion speed and the way to organize the output file. For example, choose MP3 as output format, 320 kbps as output audio quality and 20x conversion speed.

After pressing CONVERT button on the bottom, the Apple Music songs are being converting to MP3 at a very fast speed with high quality one by one. The output folder destination can be found by History > Folder. The songs from Apple Music are now DRM-free and could be able to upload to Amazon for playback via Alexa.

Skill to Stream Apple Music on Amazon Echo with Alexa

Upload the converted Apple Music songs to My Music on Amazon from your Mac or PC, when finished, you can ask Alexa to play your Apple Music songs on Amazon Echo and control playback with simple voice commands.

  • Run Amazon Music app on your PC or Mac and log in your ID.
  • Drag and drop files from the folder where stored the converted Apple Music songs into the Upload selection.

You can see uploaded music, and music that's uploading, by clicking the Uploaded filter in the left navigation sidebar. Once the Apple Music songs are imported to Amazon Music, you can play them on Echo or Echo Show speakers with simple voice command via Alexa. Speak "Alexa, pause" or "Alexa, next" and the music will pause or skip to the next song. You can also ask for Alexa to play music by genre, decade, mood, tempo, activity, and even lyrics. Amazing!

Downloading

Your computer is full of potential free ringtones for your Samsung T229 (also known as Samsung SGH-t229, T-mobile t229) :
By Bluetooth:
The Samsung t229 is Bluetooth-enabled. Bluetooth is a wireless system which lets you connect your cell phone to computers, headsets, car kits, etc. If your computer is also Bluetooth-enabled, simply establish a connection between both devices and transfer your music files from your computer to your Samsung t229.
Simply record sound directly:
Since your Samsung t229 has a sound recorder (also known as "voice memo"), a very simple technique involves simply placing your phone near your computer's speakers, playing whatever music or sound you would like as a ringtone, and recording it -- you can even use your voice, your child's voice or even your cat's "meow!" Record it with your mobile and there you go! Unless that function was specifically blocked on the Samsung t229, you should be able to navigate to the ringtones section and choose your new recording as a ringtone. Of course, the quality will not be ideal but, after all, it's free!

Downloading using the phone
NOTE: MegaTones, HiFi Ringers, and Voices & Sounds are stored at Menu > Fun & Apps > Files > Sounds > Sounds. To download using the phone, perform the following steps: 1. At the main screen, select t-zones. 2. Scroll to and select Music & Sounds. 3. Scroll to and select HiFi Ringers, MegaTones, or Voices & Sounds. 4. Scroll to and select the desired category. 5. Scroll to and select the desired tone. 6. On the preview page, select ACCEPT. 7. After the tone downloads, select Play to preview the tone. 8. Select Set as. 9. Select one of the following options:
  • myFaves ringtone: To set as a myFaves® ringtone. Scroll to and select the desired myFaves contact.
  • Default ringtone: To set as the default ringtone.
  • Caller ringtone: To set as a caller ringtone. Scroll to and select the desired contact.
  • Alarm tone: To set as an alarm tone. Scroll to and select the desired alarm. Turn on the alarm and select the desired time and date.
10. Select Save.

Downloading to a zte c79

i JUST bought this phone, and got very frustrated trying to download music into the music player. Drag and drop your music files from your pc into your "my music" folder. They DO NOT show up right away, this is why i got pissed. I figured I was doing something wrong. I had the card in my phone, and my phone plugged into the usb port. They finally showed up on my phone after I took the card out and put it back in. As far as saving them for ringtones, I am pretty pissed that I can't do it. I am thinking Metro wants us to pay for them. That is such b&*%$#*!

Playing music on my ipod classic

I'm pretty sure you can't do this. At least, I haven't figured out how.

One thing you can do is make a playlist in itunes and drag several albums into it. Then your ipod can play the whole playlist. But this requires some forethought, since you have to set up the playlist on your computer.

Another thing you can do is create an on-the-go playlist right on your ipod. Here's how:

1. from the main menu, click music, then albums
2. scroll to the first album you want in your playlist
3. press and hold the center button until the highlight blinks. don't go into the album; you're pressing and holding on the name of the album
4. scroll to the next album you want in the playlist
5. repeat step 3 until you've got all the albums in your playlist that you want

Now, go to the main menu and press music, then playlists. Scroll all the way to the bottom and notice that you have a new playlist called on-the-go. If you go into it, you'll see that it has all the songs from all the albums you selected.

If you scroll past all the songs, you also have options to clear or permanently save the playlist.

Now you can play all those albums by selecting the playlist.

Again, it requires some setup, but it does enable you to play multiple albums without interruption. A nice side-effect of this method is that you can choose the order, whereas an automatic next album feature would play them in alphabetical order.

(FYI, you can add individual songs to an on-the-go playlist as well.)

And one final option: If you go to Music - albums - ALL, you can press play and it'll play your entire iPod in order. You can scroll to any song you want to start on, but you can't really scroll to the exact album you want to start on -- unless you know where to find the first song on that album.


I know that all three options are available in the latest iPod software. If something's not working for you, you may need to update your iPod's software through iTunes.
