The real advantages to Google Music is the ability to both stream my entire itunes library, and to download playlists, artists, albums, and genres to my phone. With my 32G SD card, I would love to be able to download that music directly to my external SD card. I've seen many processes for other phones, and I've tried them out. So far, I can't quite figure out how to save that music to my external SD card on my T989.
I'm running CM10.1 (4.2.2) at present, with TWRP 2.4.1.
Anyone know how to make this work?

So I've been trying to get my playlists from Itunes onto the external SD card. It seems every app (google, Doubletwist, etc...) I've tried will read the playlists on my comp but will only place the music in the internal storage. When I try and move it to the external card and play it it get errors or just doesn't show up under the playlists anymore in the respective app. Any suggestions on new apps or any kind of help would be appreciated, as this kind of eliminates the point of buying a 32gb card. Thank you.
Not sure, I'm just grabbing at straws here, but doesn't the actual music file (mp3) also have to be on the external sd card as well?
Another words you cannot have your mp3's stored internally & the playlists stored externally. Also would moving the app itself to the ext-sd card help? Just throwing some ideas out there.
I am a Google Music user and since I have a capped data plan I can't stream like I want to. I have to save music to the phone from Google Music. I have a 32 gig sd card that I can use if I am rooted and link a folder on the sd card.
I would actually like to go completely stock(for corporate email where I work I can't be rooted) but also want to save music from Google Music to my external sd card. Is there anyway to do this without being rooted?
Ok, I am trying to make new a playlist that will stay on my device (razr m). I have tried to make one on the device, but you cant move the music around to make a specific list. Then, when you do take the time to do so - when the sd card is removed, you loose the playlist. I have tried windows media player and I keep getting errors of it not being able to sync several songs, which are already on my device.
Very frustrated!

I, too, have struggled with the same concept. for whatever reason, this app best works by creating your playlist online, and then syncing it to your phone - in turn, it will download your songs and place them in the internal storage. you'll notice that the size of this app increases as a result.
the app still recognizes songs stored on your external sdcard though.
my only other thought would be to use other music apps like winamp.
edit: just found this, and I'll try it tonight. http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...e-all-google-play-music-external-sd-card.html
update: this process worked for me! I was now able to free up more than 1GB of space on internal storage by moving my songs to the external sd card.
I have my music stored on the external sd card. The music plays fine. When I copy a play list from my computer, only some of the songs are listed. Amy ideas?

Same here,i also have a problem when i set alarm music that was stored on external sd card randomly alarm was set to default,so i transfer just that song to internal memory and problem disappear,i guess that if you copy all music to internal memory,problem will disappear ,but i wonder if there is any other solution...

Might be a stupid question but are you guys able to save your music and playlist to somewhere, so that if you change your phone or sd card, it just downloads to your new phone or sd card? If so what are you using?
anyone?
