So I tried purchasing an MP3 from Amazon and it downloaded fine and I put it in my "my music" folder. But it wont show up in my native Sense MP3 player. When I go in and explore the folder I see it and it will let me open it with windows media player, but it wont show up in the native sense player. Anyone else have this problem?
Also, what does everyone use for purchasing MP3's? Amazon says I need some MP3 downloader software otherwise it wont let me purchase the music? What gives?
The native Sense player has a "Purchases" section. The most far right tab I believe. Try checking there.
Yea, I just tried purchasing a song from there (its amazon), and it makes you download a .amz file and that starts your download. Unfortunatley the broswer doesnt do anything once you download it. DUMB!
This is like the first thing that has really upset me about this phone!!!! I cant download music on the go..... thats some BS!!!

What exact folder does it put the music in? It could be that it places the newly downloaded song in the program files folder for the amazon download app, which is hidden from the sense music player indexing (all of the program files folder is that way).
Well I got that part figured out, I just did one of their free songs and got everything working.
But then I actually purchased one, which downloads this .AMZ file which is suppose to initiate the download of the actual mp3 file, but it doesnt seem to do anything. When I click on it it says there is no program associated with the file.

Ok I just googled it, and the .amz file requires the desktop downloader from Amazon...I don't know that Amazon has any method to download paid songs that don't require that app or a mobile client (like android has).
Wow, I cant believe that nobody has ever used that "shop music store" function in the native player!!!!?

I get the feeling it was just never fully implemented as amazon never produced a winmo client, and I've never seen any other direct-to-device MP3 stores for winmo.
This makes me sad pandas!
I've tried to use both Double Twist and Song Bird.
The problem with Double Twist is it will not sync videos because it tries to convert them for the phone. Problem is I don't want them converted because they play fine when I copy them.
Song Bird does music well, but what about videos? I did notice when it scans my library it doesn't seem to capture all of my music.
Anyways is there anything else out there we can use for our Vibrants?

There's "The missing sync" but it seems to have bad reviews.
Why not just copy and paste onto sdcard? Also, kies might offer some sync solution

I do copy and paste currently.
I just thought with the awesomeness of our phones that somebody would have figured out something cool by now.
Any pc/mac based sync app that can handle file trees should get the job done. Rsync would work..
Isyncr in the market is amazing.
Looking for the recommended way to transfer itunes music to the N7. I don't really want to purchase any converters and I don't have any protected content. It's just that not all files are mp3, and they're in the itunes file formats. Been searching and have ideas, but figured this would be a great place to ask.

Download itunes agent, I've been using it on my incredible S for a year and its awesome and easy
Why not just go to your iTunes music folder under your user profile in My Computer and drag n drop. Shouldn't need to install anything.

I downloaded the google music computer app which will upload all your iTunes music to google music. You can then either stream or download it to your device.

Is that only in the US?
Once you download and setup the app using a US proxy, you can upload and stream the music from anywhere

So I will be recieving this beauty Next week and I was looking around but cant seem to find the answer.
I wish to stream my WMP or Itunes playlists on my tablet when I am home.
I did buy a Portable HD, but not really usefull to always copy my computer playlists over it and such.
Really looking for a streaming option.
I don't know how enamored/entrenched with iTunes you are, but once i entered the android world, I moved my music over to google music. It can be streamed or downloaded to your devices via Google's music app.

Google music will automatically import all your iTunes / wmv music and auto sync from that point forward.
Google music > iTunes
To be honest didnt really fiddle with google music. Tought it was just a player for the phone. So i can basicaly listen to it o er my computer aswell?

Yes, though you'll need to sign up with a US proxy (just for the signup, after that you don't need to worry about it).
Also, download Skifta or some other DNLA app and you can stream shared music and movies from your network (WinXP/Vista/7/8 machines, XBox360, PS3, and more support DNLA).
EDIT: See you have an S2X...Samsung calls their DNLA client for their phones and tablets AllShare, if you've used that, Skifta does pretty much the same thing.
Yeah i got skifta using it for vids. But I found that for music it wasnt great. Just managed to sync my principl plulist on google music!looks good

I was a big iTunes user and I have far too many songs to just drag and drop, Google music is a life saver... Better then iTunes

You don't need US proxy for sign up, its available in the UK now. Just upload all your music to the cloud, install Google music app, play.

He's in Canada, like me. It's not active here yet, so we still need to use a proxy for the sign up.

My only concern with Google Music is there is no offline player. If your net connection goes you loose the ability to play your music.
OK you could just navigate to the folders and play them as they are, or use something like iTunes but it kinda defeats the point

Think you missed the point. I was specifically talking about desktop support where the local hard copies of your music are stored
I don't see why it is a problem that you can play your music with any application that you would like to.
I'm confused why your desktop is even in the discussion. Google Music will let you stream music to your tablet or phone without any interaction with your desktop. You can continue to use your desktop as you do now.
If you want something that streams directly from your desktop then look into Subsonic.

What i want was to mark all of my songs on my phone then the apps download all the lyrics. I just want the app to do the job. I hate playing 2k of my music one by one just to download the lyrics on musixMatch. you know what i mean. I've downloaded pimp my music, it has the feature that i want. But it only search for some of the lyrics. Sometimes it fails to search. Hmmm. Thanks for the help @jaythenut ;
