How to Download Music on a PSP Without a USB Cable

The Sony Playstation Portable (PSP), unlike the other hand-held seventh-generation gaming consoles, allows gamers to listen to music on their device. Usually, music can be transferred from a PC to a PSP by connecting the two devices with the PSP&'s USB cable. If you do not have your PSP&'s USB cable, there is still a way that music can be transferred to your PSP: by using your PSP&'s memory stick as an intermediary.

Things You'll Need

PC with memory-stick slot
Memory-stick DUO adapter

Instructions

- 1
  Remove the memory-stick DUO from your PSP and insert it into your memory-stick DUO adapter. Insert the adapter into the memory-stick slot on your PC. If your PC does not have a memory-stick slot, you will need to use a memory-stick USB adapter. This adapter will accept your memory-stick adapter and will connect to one of the available USB ports on your PC.
