Whether you’re preparing a Christmas playlist for a family reunion or for your ears only, recovering your Christmas music must be your next step.

Loss of audio files can be caused by an SD card corruption, failed Android update, or even accidental deletion. Luckily, there are two simple ways you can recover lost Christmas music. We have rounded them up for you, including a detailed step-by-step guide to guide you throughout the process.

Part 2. Recover Christmas Music with Google Drive

If you have taken the time to back up your phone regularly, that’s good. Google Drive is handy for people who are extra careful with their files and even for those who simply want to free up space in their device’s memory. You can also access all files from the cloud as long as you have your e-mail address, password, and an internet connection.

But if you haven’t used that yet, maybe it is high time to start doing so. Simply start with registering for a Google account. If you already have one, you can simply access Google Drive and sign in. Once logged in, you can now upload your important audio files. The next time you encounter problems with your phone or you accidentally delete some files, you no longer have to worry.

Here’s how you can download your audio files back from Google Drive.

1. Open your Google Drive app or access it via browser at https://google.com/drive.
2. All uploaded files will be displayed. You may also use the Search box and type in the name of the file to look for your audio files faster.
3. Once you have found them, click on them and select Download.

If you have not backed up your Christmas songs, don’t freak out yet. There’s another way you can recover lost Christmas music. The second method that we are going to present is actually easier and more flexible. Read on to know why.
