I have never put music on my iPhone before, or even ripped a CD. We have a birdsong CD and thought it would be good to be able to play tracks from it when out and about.
I don't know how to do this. Everything I google talks about connecting to iTunes. I don't much like iTunes on the PC, it being to me totally incomprehensible, complex and seeming to need updates and internet access to log in every six seconds at the PC end.
I imagine (wrongly?) on the phone if I launch IOS iTunes with no signal, likely in the outdoors, it will give up because it will want to log in? Even if there was signal I guess would be using gobbets of mobile data? I'm assuming here that iTunes on the phone CAN actually play my own tracks anyway - it seems to want to connect to some store or other at the moment on launch and sell me stuff.
I just want to be able to rip the CD on the PC (not sure how) and get the tracks into the right place on the iphone, wherever that is (not sure how) and play them usng some simple music player on the phone whilst probably having no signal (not sure how).
Any help appreciated. Be happy to be told iTunes is easy and works, stop fussing, but I'm not going to learn how to use it and put all the effort in if it won't do what I want simply.
