Dear Scott and all:
These directions worked very well for me. Thank you.
I figured out that, at least for me, my phone had to be connected to
my computer, or so it seemed, anyway.
But in future, I may try using something like Filer or Dropbox,
instead. I think Dropbox would be faster.
To be clear, I didn't want to use ITunes Music; I just was thinking
that I might have to since these files are MP3s. But of course, that
was not the way to go; Scott's directions were.
Thanks to all for your help, both on and off-list.
Btw, apologies for the doubled posting; for some reason, my first
message had gotten trapped as spam.
Best,
Jennifer

Hello Jennifer,
In iTunes you will need to make sure that your iPhone is
the item within the sources list that is in focus. Then hit the
tab key until you come to the Apps checkbox and then hit the space
bar to select it. Then you need to hit tab again and you will come
a list of all of the apps on you iPhone, hit tab again and you
should come to an area that will say something like Apps that can
share files with itunes.. Arrow down to Downcast and then hit the
tab key again and you will come to the place where you put the
files that you want to share with Downcast. Just hit the add
button and then add the files, once you have done this the only
thing left to do is to synche your phone and then from Downcast on
the phone you can import the files into Downcast.
I hope that this isn't to confusing, if you need more help
just let me know.
