Ok, I admit, it's because I've only dealt with the iOS operating system before (iPhones). Android is like Greek -- no, Chinese -- to me.
Backing up a bit: you mentioned marking apps so they wouldn't ever show up in the drawer. Well, I accidentally touched the NFL mobile app, which I will never ever want to use, in order to find that switch. Now it's on my drawer (I take it that's a drawer; it looks like a home screen to me) and I can't make it go away! Help Ms Wizard!
And (2) how would I get Amazon's Prime Music app to get here? I tried to search for it in the "Play Store" and it just quits as soon as I reach the third character I type in. Oh, and the Audible app too please.
And after that, how would I connect it to my computer to download mp3s?
[i did get my micro SD card in OK. I am grateful for the hint about removing the ring before using the blue cover! However I don't like it that much, so I'll skip it, now that I removed the ring once for the SD card.]

Go to Settings then apps find the app you want to disable then press on it. From the app details screen click disable button but I also like to clear data too afterward.
You need to sideload Google Play from
apkmirror. The first time it will fail to install and you will get a popup saying it's not allowed click on the settings button on that popup that will take you the a new screen. Find the Unknown sources and press on the toggle switch by it then try again and the app this time will install. This will stop the crashing.
You need a micro USB cord like from a Kindle or another cell phone to connect to your PC to drag and drop files. I use ES File Explorer's LAN feature to transfer files wireless. So I'm not much more help than that.
