Hi, my partner recently got her S3 so i thought I would have a try at transferring some files with s-beam. I go ahead and set up both phones exactly the same as described, i have managed to transfer pictures and a video but i really cant work out how to get music to transfer across. I have tried and tried but when ever i press to transfer, all it does on her phone is load the play music hub on her phone. Ive tried transferring while the selected song is playing and when its not but i get the same result each time. Ive tried selecting a song through many different file managers but with the same result each time.
Am i doing something wrong? With the video transfer, I started the video, put the phones back to back and once prompted I pressed yes to transfer. It was the same with the photos, load it up, pressed the phone together and selected to transfer. I try this with the music and all it does on my partners phone is load up the music app but does no transfer.
Any help would be much appreciated.
 
Hey.

I tried doing this with my girlfriend when we went on a trip together. We had a few songs we wanted to share. It should work the same way the other files send. Once you open the song, put it back to back with the other device. This will prompt the transfer. I tried a few different things and I don't think you can transfer entire playlists - it has to be one song at a time. Hope this helps.
