A question from a technically-inept one - don't have an IPod so how can I get the sessions onto my mobile (a BlackBerry) so that I can use that ?

I've got an Android phone and I downloaded them as podcasts onto my lap top and then transfered them to my phone in the music app

I downloaded them onto my laptop then added them to a micro sd card which slots into my phone.

good luck :)

I reckon you're at an advantage not having an iAnything as you don't actually have to go through iTunes! - just download to your PC. After that, i think you'd need to get your phone software working - I put my C25K podcasts on my Zen MP3 player which has its own software to do the download; I'm sure Blackberry must have the same sort of thing. Or perhaps it just works like a USB stick if you've got it attached to your PC.....

Do you know any teenagers? If so get them to do this for you!

I have children in their twenties - but they just roll their eyes and sigh - where do u think the expression "technically inept" came from ? My darling son......

I used to have a blackberry bold. What I did was download the podcasts to my laptop, then connect my phone to my laptop using a usb cable. I would then open the folder Downloads that contained the podcasts. Then, if you go to My Computer, you will see an icon for your blackberry. Click it and then open the music folder option. Drag and drop podcasts from your Downloads folder into your blackberry music folder.

I really hope this helps!

Thank you - this sounds like something I might be able to do.
