Hint: get a list of the mp3 files (look at File.listFiles(), then copy them one by one. You can't do them in bulk the way you're trying to do it. — Brian Pipa, Mar 03 '17 at 14:58
and use FilenameUtils to check if it is the extension you want to copy or skip it — Zeromus, Mar 03 '17 at 15:00

You can do that using.

Files.copy(src, dest, REPLACE_EXISTING);
