How to Download Music CD's from External Hard Drive to a Flash Drive on a Lap Top with Windows 10

Hi Carolyn,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. I will surely help you.

To understand the issue better, let me know where exactly the Music is saved on? Is it on the CD's or External Hard drive?

Step 1:

If it is on the CD's, you may have to copy it the computer first and then copy it the Flash Drive. I suggest you to refer the article to know how to copy music from CD's to computer.

Note: Applies to Windows 10.

Step 2:

After copying the music to the computer, to move it to the Flash Drive Follow these steps.

• Select the required songs and
  right-click on it.
• Select copy.
• Go to the Flash drive and right-click on Free Space.
• Select Paste.

Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of the issue so that we can assist you further.

 

Music CD Burn controls seem primitive at best ....

Hi,

I understand the inconvenience that you are facing with burning music onto a CD.

Please try the methods below and check if the issue can be fixed.

• 
  Rip (copy) the music to your hard drive.
  
  Before ripping your CD, change your burning quality to the highest quality: Click Organize, choose Options, click the Rip Music tab, and change the Format box to WAV (Lossless). Click OK.
  
• 
  Insert a blank CD into your writable CD drive.
  
• 
  In Windows Media Player's Navigation Pane, click the Music category and choose Album to see your saved CDs.
  
• 
  Right-click the newly ripped album in your library, choose Add To, and choose Burn List.
  
  If your Burn List already had some listed music, click the Clear List button to clear it; then add your CD's music to the Burn List.
  
• 
  Click the Start Burn button.
  

Now, for the fine print. Unless you change the quality to WAV (Lossless) when copying the CD to your PC, Windows Media Player compresses your songs as it saves them on your hard drive, throwing out some audio quality in the process. Burning them back to
CD won't replace that lost quality. If you want the most accurate duplicates Windows Media Player can handle, change the Ripping Format to WAV (Lossless).

If you do change the format to WAV (Lossless) in order to duplicate a CD, remember to change it back to MP3 afterward, or else your hard drive will run out of room when you begin ripping a lot of CDs.

Reply to us if whether you are able to burn CD after following the step above. We are happy to help!
