    How do I do this from a laptop?
    Community Answer
    Music can be put on a 3DS by removing the SD card and loading the music files onto it manually. If your laptop has an SD card port, it can be inserted there; if not, use an SD card adapter for a USB.

    You'll need to use a port, which your device should have. You can get a blank SD card from a tech store.

      Warnings

      • Don't delete anything from the 3DS SD card, besides music or photos. Should this happen, you may unintentionally mess it up to the point of it being unplayable.

      • 3DS systems only have 2GB of space maximum, and there will be less storage to use if there is a lot taken up. An XL system has 4GB. To get many, many songs, you will need to delete photos or buy an SD card compatible with the system.
        Thanks
