smartphone and click Eject.
On a Mac computer, drag the drive representing your smartphone to
the Trash. The Trash icon changes to Eject.

Use HP Play to sync music from your computer to your
smartphone
If you have music in your HP Play library on your computer, you can sync
the songs in your HP Play library to the Music app on your smartphone. If
you have music in an iTunes library, the contents of that library are copied
to HP Play when you install it on your computer (see Install HP Play), and
you can then sync all your iTunes music to your smartphone from HP Play.
Music you add to iTunes after you install HP Play is copied to HP Play
automatically.
You can set up HP Play to sync automatically with your smartphone each
time you connect it to your computer (see Set up HP Play to sync with your
smartphone), or, if you choose not to sync automatically, you can
manually sync HP Play with your smartphone at any time (see Manually
sync music from HP Play to your device). Playlists sync one-way, from HP
Play on your computer to your smartphone. Playlists synced from HP Play
cannot be changed on your smartphone.
Install HP Play
On a Windows computer:
1 Open your computer's browser and go to hpplay.com.
2 Click Download the installer and double-click to install, and then
click Run.
3 If an “Unknown publisher” message appears, click Run to continue.
4 Click Install, (optional) uncheck Launch HP Play to stop HP Play from
opening immediately and then click Finish.
