Hi,
I just transfered my itunes music using isyncr. It was simple enough and I am not a teckie. But I noticed that it only shows 100 songs. It did the same thing when I synced using the itunes agent. It shows that 300+ songs synced and 70 didn't because of drm issues. I am just using the stock music app. Can anyone help?
I use iTunes Agent because it's reliable, and of all I've tried, worked.
With that said, the iTunes DRM problem is there becaused you purchased music from the iTunes store at the cheapest price. The file is meant to only be played on Apple's devices. Since then, Apple has added iTunes Plus. Add a few cents more, and you get the music DRM-free.

Coming from an iPhone I'm looking for something to repalce iTunes. A wireless sync program would be perfect, but wired will work. It also be nice if it could sync with a backup program to make full system backups like the iPhones does.

double twist is free and it works great BUT it doesn't do over the air and I don't know of a service that does this for free. the next best thing (actually better than double twist) is something called missing sync.
Froyo will include ota music as part of the Simplify Media team.
Doubletwist is a great program and I would recommend it to anyone. However, if you don't mind spending a few bucks you can get The Missing Sync which will sync your music right from iTunes through it's own worm whole.
I dont mind getting rid of Itunes...always was a laggy pos.
TuneSync. It's awesome if you're an iTunes user and don't want to re-home your library. It's a background app that will sync playlists over Wifi. Has OSX and Windows versions.
I'm really happy with it. Free version is limited to 20 songs per playlist. I bought the full for like $4.
It will also reverse sync any mp3's bought from the Amazon store on the handset. That's a pretty nice feature.
EDIT: Missing Sync looks cool, but it's $40. Syncs a lot more than music, but if you just want to sync music, TuneSync is your app at 10% of the price.
doubletwist always freezes on me. I use Songbird to sync.
I use isyncr straight from iTunes

I've been using double twist which is almost as much of a dog as itunes is on my machine, but tune sync looks good, I'll have to check that out.

sjwaste beat me to it. I use Tunesync. Syncs with whatever playlists i want form iTunes wirelessly without me doing a darn thing.
drag and drop doesn't work for you?
I haven't bothered to sync a bunch of music, I am mostly using Last.FM android app, but I recommend mediamonkey, just set it up as generic usb device
tho if you have lossless files, on the fly conversion requires the non-free gold version.

I like to lower the bit rate. What I play on my home stereo and my EVO are two different things.
Windows Media Player can sync music as well.
But there's nothing easier than just drag&drop.
Screw iTunes.
iSyncr. Love making playlists on my PC in iTunes, easy to organize songs I want/don't want by checking/unchecking in iTunes. Isn't free but is very easy to use.

Amen.. Free from the beast!!! If only my shuffle could find a reliable replacement to sync music..
Yes, I use iTunes as my music player. Just stuck on me.
Anyway, I can sync iTunes with my EVO easily using iTunes Agent. I can't do this with my Galaxy Tab 10.1. I tried copy pasting the music files from the EVO into the Music folder of the Galaxy Tab 10.1, some work then I get a constant message saying "Cannot copy, device is either disconnected or is not responding."
There has got to be a simpler way to do this, and I'm getting really frustrated.
I used DoubleTwist, and it works somewhat, but it won't import my purchased iTunes songs.
Doubletwist
agreed, doubletwist is pretty cool
I use isyncr.

Ewww... iTunes?! Ugh!
iTunes is the worst... just drag and drop.
The best way would be to get all your music the hell out of iTunes and into the Google Music cloud.

That will never happen and it's not Google or Samsung's fault.

I still use iTunes because I really like the Smart Playlists. That said, I also use iSyncr because it maintains my Smart Playlist play counts no matter whether I listen to music from my GT, my Droid X or on my PC. I also sync iSyncr via wi-fi so no cables needed. Gotta love it!
Let me re-phrase it:
Is there any FREE way of syncing ALL my music from iTunes?
LOL
Dragging and dropping won't work for me. It only works for like 20 minutes, then I get a message saying "Device has been disconnected or has stopped working."
I think iSyncr is $2.99. I would recommend biting the bullet and breaking out your wallet...

Rephrasing won't change my answer. You will NEVER be able to sync songs purchased from the Apple store that are not DRM free with a non-Apple device.
You will have to convert each one of those songs from DRM coded AAC to clean AAC or clean MP3. Right click on songs in iTunes that you purchased and see if this option is available to you. It will will vary per record company (or at least it used to - it's been years since I've bothered with this).
I play purchased iTunes music on my Android phone and via Google Music all the time.
Apple went DRM free over 2 years ago. If you've built your iTunes purchase collection in that recent time frame then it can be dragged and dropped onto Android phones and the Google Music cloud.
If you bought tracks from before then then they can be "upgraded" to DRM free versions (typically with higher bitrates to give you something for your money) for around 30 cents per track. If you've invested heavily in iTunes purchases before then, then that may be a nasty dent in your wallet, but if you just have a few then it's not that bad to upgrade them.
The only issue I've run into is that I still have 3 albums that they never offered me to upgrade that have DRM on them, but the vast majority of my iTunes purchased music was upgraded to DRM-free over the past 2 years.
Well you can burn the DRM albums to a cd and then rip the same cd in itunes again... I did that when i had a couple of albums in itunes that also was not offrec to be upgraded to drm free...
Here where i live it is a gray area to do that but i cant speak about the laws other places in the world.
(When i say gray area it is because it have been proved in court that removing DRM is not iligal if you need to do it to play on your devices. (The ruling was about playing dvd's in Linux tho but the same apply for my music now here))
Google music searched my pc and placec all my itunes music in the cloud for me
Hi There!
I am looking for a legit way to purchase music from my Android phone in NZ that has a decent selection of music, or at least charts music.
Ideally it might also interface with my iTunes music collection in a simple easy way.
Music purchased from iTunes has been DRM-free for some years now. They should play on any Android device.
For syncing, take a look at DoubleTwist. It is like iTunes for Android. It uses iTunes as a database for syncing music between iTunes and any Android device.
this may work where you are

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.

Syncs play counts.
Auto sync at specific time everyday if required.
There is a consolidate library feature in iTunes that will put all music and stuff in iTunes folder.

doubletwist works perfect for me. Give it a try...
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

Hi all, anybody know of a music player that will syce between multiple devices including a pc? I usually use the Amazon music app but they've discontinued music uploads. Amy help would be great thanks.
Google play music is not without its flaws but it will at least do this (as long as you can live with uploading only from the PC or by using workarounds like a cloud storage synced folder).
I never noticed Amazon had disabled uploads for non-paying customers - there were things I liked better about the player, but the free storage limit was too small to be useful to me anyway.
if you use iTunes you can use iSyncr and sync your playlists to your android devices and use Poweramp or a music player of your choice. Poweramp is a top notch player with a high quality EQ btw. I used to use Google Play Music from time to time but it is lousy at syncing from my computer to the cloud and to the phone and tablet. it adds the same albums like 4 times over in the playlists and gets them all screwed up. So i gave up.

This is googles sync tool, point it at your music folder on your PC and let it rip. Songs will be streamable from the Google music app.
