Q: QuestionCan I rip and sync a cd to my phone using this?
Asked by Jackson.
- A:Answer Hello there. Thank you for sharing your inquiry with us. We understand your question regarding the ability to rip and sync a CD to your phone using the GP60NB50 External USB 2.0 DVD Writer. The GP60NB50 is primarily designed to connect to and function with a personal computer (PC or Mac) running Windows or Mac OS. The specifications confirm its compatibility with Windows 7, Windows Vista™, Windows XP, and Mac OS® X. This drive allows you to read a CD and use software on your computer to rip (convert) the audio into a digital file (like MP3) on the computer's hard drive. Once the files are on your computer, you would then sync those digital files to your phone. The drive is not designed to connect directly to most phones to perform the ripping process. To achieve the outcome you are looking for, the typical process involves a computer as an intermediary: Connect the GP60NB50 to a compatible PC or Mac. Use CD ripping software (which is generally included with the drive for PC, or uses a program like iTunes/Windows Media Player/other software) on the computer to convert the CD's tracks into digital files. Transfer the newly created digital files from the computer to your phone using the phone's native sync software or by manually copying the files. https://www.bestbuy.com/product/lg-24x-write-24x-rewrite-24x-read-cd-8x-write-dvd-external-usb-2-0-dvd-writer-drive-multi/JXTZZLCVW7 If you have any further questions about using the GP60NB50 drive with your computer, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to assist you. —Renzo

Q: QuestionCan it read DVDs from different regions or only one specific region
Asked by Anonymous.
