Even though iPhone 5 has been equipped with top-notch components like dual-core A6 processor and 8-megapixel iSight camera, it may still not be favored for being a mobile with 4-inch display. The flooding of monster screen phones like Galaxy S3 has resulted in the fact that the increase in the screen size will help the mobile to gain bigger chance to win more customers. As a consequence, most users may more or less consider about dropping iPhone 5 for Galaxy Note 2. However, before replacing iPhone 5 with Galaxy Note 2, users need to find out ways to transfer music from iPhone 5 to Galaxy Note 2 at first. Otherwise, they will spend much time and even money collecting those iPhone 5 music songs on Galaxy Note 2.

“How can I transfer music from iPhone 5 to Samsung Galaxy Note 2?” Generally speaking, the fact that those two mobiles are powered by different operating systems has hinted that users are not allowed to transfer music from iPhone 5 to Galaxy Note 2 directly. Therefore, a common way to manage the music transference from iPhone 5 to Galaxy Note 2 is to transfer music from iPhone 5 to computer and then transfer the songs from computer to Galaxy Note 2. However, the closeness of iOS 6 has made even the transference of music from iPhone 5 to computer a difficult task. Therefore, two methods will be covered here to allow users manage music transference from iPhone 5 to Galaxy Note 2.

Method One: Transfer purchased iPhone music

As a professional iPhone transfer, iTunes allows users to manage the music transference from iPhone 5 to computer when those music songs are purchased from iTunes Store and still on sale. What users need to do is just to download those purchased music songs again to iTunes from iTunes Store. When it is done, users only need to transfer the iPhone 5 music to Galaxy Note 2 via USB cable.
