Hi my g/f has just got the 5500 sport :frown: we won't go there ok.....

We have tried to work out how to get some CD music tracks onto the memory card but there is nothing about this in the useless manual..
Can anyone tell me
a, what file formats are supported ? ie MP3 WMA ?
b,what is the best format to convert to on the PC
c, What software can I download and use to rip the music CD's
d, how do I best transfer the music files to the memory card ?
we have a PC memory card reader but would it be best to download to phone from the PC using the USB data lead ?

So many questions sorry . 😉

a. mp3 and aac for sure. But go to Nokia site, and search on 5500 page what kind of formats it can deal;
b. PCSuite;
c. PCSuite;
d. Again PCSuite or a card reader.
