Open Google Play. It's the orange triangle-shaped app with a white music note in the center. It's in the top-left of the screen. This takes you to the main page of your Music Library. So far, so good. But what happens if you want to download all the music you own on Play Musicmeaning every song you've ever uploaded and every song you've ever bought? Clearly, the method we just explained isn't suitable. It would take an untold amount of time to download every album and playlist individually, and that's before you worry about accidentally overlooking some of the files.
Instead, you'll need to revert to the web app and follow a workaround. The Play Music web app is available at play.
The workaround involves creating batches of playlists, with each having 1, songs. Unfortunately, Play Music does not allow playlists with more tracks. Give your playlist a name for example, "Temporary 1" and, if you wish, a description.
Drag the first 1, songs in your collection into the list, then repeat the process. Don't worry about mixing artists and genres; the files won't be tied to the playlist when they eventually arrive on your phone. Once you've got all your music in playlists, return to the Android app and repeat the download process described earlier. Now you have downloaded a copy of all your music onto your Android phone. But what's next? Happy Listening! Learn more. Spend less time waiting and more time doing with Intel-powered desktops that range from pocket-sized devices to high performance towers.
