Sync Music with Nexus 4 like iTunes? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't know if this is possible but,
can I Sync Music with Nexus 4 like one can do with their iPhone and iTunes?
I would prefer it to be wireless sync

Play music from the app store, and download Google music manger on PC or use play music chrome browser app. It is goggles cloud based music service

Oh I bought Wifi Explorer Pro instead. More convienent. And only a buck

Double twist also syncs with iTunes. The free version needs to be plugged into your computer, but the paid version can sync over Wi-Fi.

Winamp can do wireless sync. You need Winamp both on desktop and phone.

But does it work with nexus? I know AirSync for DoubleTwist works great, because I am using it... On the other hand USB probably doesnt work with nexus phones, does it?

I have a Mac and it works with that, but I can't say with a PC.

Don't infect pure android with icrap stuff.

I like Google play music especially when I realized there was an equalizer . Works great.

Book from computer to Google Books?

I have some epubs and mobis on my computer that I really want to get in the Google books app. I love the way it displays text on the screen. Any help?

You can't upload your own books to Google books, that's why I use kindle
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I recommend fbreader (there are other options).
Kindle ui while reading the book is just worse than gbooks in my opinion. It doesn't use all of the screen, and the font is worse

Wonder what would happen if you loaded them into Google drive, ,maybe the application picker would come up if it detects the epub format. Just a shot in the dark

Use aldiko. Its free and reads most format. Works good for me.

I am using google music, which is pretty awesome and 100% free
iSyncr from the Play store. I've used it for a while and it works great (Mac and iTunes).

Google Now can't play music?!

I've had this problem for quite a long time and never been able to play music via voice commands in Google Now. I would say 'play "song title or artist" '. But I would just search what I said on Google.
I have a nexus 4.... Cm10.2 nightly. Canada.

I think you have to say...... listen to (track name)
Not sure though I don't use Google now.
Nope. Still just googled what I said

I have always had this problem with Google now. Would be nice if it worked and if it was part of the offline voice dictation. You could try Utter, very functional and customizable voice control. Don't really think a bump was necessary...

Then it must be the rom

Didn't work for me either. How could it be the ROM? Isn't Google Now part of Gapps?

I don't believe it even worked when I was on stock ROM. I'm thinking its because I'm in Canada? Maybe these features have only rolled out to the US? Correct me if I'm wrong

Ya i tried both listening and playing commands.
Whats worse is i get my music from online sources since i listen to djs . So the fields of name and song arent correctly filled. Why there is no simple program that can separate or fill the data in automatically is beyond me. Seems pretty easy. Thats the artist and thats the song title
wish i can just say a command and it will play a random song, and then i can give commands to go to next song vocally or something. Was looking into MotoX so i can go handsfree but seems google play needs more updates

no clue.. did not think it should use the same or sometimes more battery than slacker?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
your slacker radio is 23%, so your mediaserver is completely ok. usually, mediaserver will use more than the actual music app.
thanks.. just wanted to be sure that there was no issue.

Facebook sync?!

I have a nexus 4 running kit Kat. It's completely stock. I'm trying to get mainly my Facebook photos to sync into my android gallery without having to manually sync with apps like "my album". It wouldn't hurt to be able to sync contracts and events too.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
I'm so shocked nobody has a straight up simple app for this.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
I don't think you can with vanilla android, without an app

Try that for contacts, idk about pics though
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
I don't mind using an app, but I'm more worried about syncing my pictures than my contacts.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
I'm not sure that this is as simple as you think it is. Facebook doesn't have the same integration as Google obviously. I have not heard of a way to sync your Facebook albums with your phone.
Contact pics are easy. I have never heard of pulling albums though.

yeah it is for contacts, it allows you to pick if the person it finds is correct or not on initial setup. Which is nice in case their name on facebook isn't exactly the same as you have it on your phone. Yes I'm a Subaru guy.
Oh ok. I'm more looking for a way to sync my face book photos to my phone. Subaru for life!!

Plenty of apps to manually download albums, but none to sync.
