A:AnswerSome people connect AirPods to Android phones/devices. I suppose this will be the same process since it runs Android 12, but Android 12 is also older. I thin Android 16 is out now. I used it with Sony XM5s.
A:AnswerHi MG,
Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, you can use Windows Media Player to transfer music from your computer to your Walkman. We do have good information and instructional video on how to create and transfer playlist to your Walkman using Microsoft Windows Media Player. Please check these links.

Note: If unsuccessful, use Music Center to create and transfer playlists to your walkman.
Additional information:
With the help of Music Center for PC on your Windows computer, you will be able to transfer music from your CD collection or music content that is stored on a Windows computer to the player. To transfer music content stored on a Mac computer, you need to install additional software. An example of additional software is Android File Transfer. For more details, refer to the link below.

A:AnswerHi Mark562,
Thanks for reaching out to us. We can't guarantee that the NW-A306 Walkman will directly integrate or accept edited information from Windows Media Player for library updates. This player creates a database in the music player playback to store and manage music library information (artist, album, track titles, etc.). As an alternative, you can transfer the edited lecture files (MP3 or other supported format) from your computer to the player using drag-and-drop method or via Music Center for PC.
Be sure to review the links (resources) below, as it tells you how to transfer content from a Windows computer using Music Center for PC as well as create and transfer playlist to your Walkman using Microsoft Windows Media Player.

- You can try a third-party tagging software such as "mp3tag or tagscanner" to see if that gives you your desired results. Keep in mind that it is a third-party software so we are unable to provide support for that.

By trying one of these methods, you should be able to transfer your wife's lecture CDs with the edited information onto the Sony NW-A306 Walkman. The Walkman will then display the proper artist, album, and track titles for the lectures. Hope this helps.
Regards,
Jess
