Can someone please tell me how I can download music to my Samsung music app? It goes to HLM1 and then I can't figure out how to get it to my music app. I don't know if this is the result of one of the updates but I'm getting very frustrated with it. Thank you.

I'm not sure how to use a file manager app.

Open the My Files app on your phone and locate the HLM1 folder.  Locate the music you downloaded and select them by long pressing on one file name and selecting the rest by tapping on each one.  On the bottom of the screen will be a menu with the option to move the selected files.  Select "move", and when you do that a new screen will  overlay with options across the top for places to move those files to, make sure you are in internal storage and you will see a list of folders, select your folder and tap "move here" at the bottom of the screen.  Once your music files are in the music folder, your music player will see them.

My options for moving were chrome, hlm1 viewer and Samsung print services.

You should have more options than that.  Since your phone does not have an SD card, all your files should be contained in the internal storage, in which case, it should  have brought up a list of folders in internal storage to move the files to.  Can you post a screen shot?  I may have left out a screen shot.  When the new screen comes up, and you see the top row, where it shows what folder you are currently in, if you tap that, it should bring up your folder list in the file manager.  

 

Otherwise, I would delete the files from the device, and then resend them either via wi-fi or USB through the file manager, where you should be able to pick the folder that they transfer to.  To transfer via USB, you need to make sure autoblocker is off on both devices.  You can also upload them to cloud storage (Google Drive/OneDrive) and then transfer them from cloud storage through the file manager.

That is not the right screen. You are using the share option, not the move option in the file manager.

You must open the file manager, on the device where the files were transferred to. The file manager on Samsung phones is called my files, and if you do not have it on your home screen, search for it in your app drawer.
