Wifi Music/Video syncing?

Has anyone found a reliable, free (or cheap) solution for syncing content to their desire?
Ideally I would like to share the SD card via wifi but I know that might not be possible.
Next best option would be an app that runs on the PC (win 7 64 bit) and an android app to sync the content.
Nearest I have found is Missing Sync but they want $40 (£28) for it which is ludicrous!
I have tried searching but not found anything.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Although it doesn't do this over wifi, doubleTwist syncs all that.

For down/uploading files to sd card from/to your pc there is one called web sharing, great app.

you could use an ftp server like swiftp on your phone and a client on your pc like filezilla. they're both free btw...
you would have to get yourself an app that rescans the sd card and adds the new files to the music library, but if i'm not mistaken there's a free one for that too

I'm using NextApp WebSharing Media/File Sync to do this. Try the free version first, the full version is $2.99 and honestly is excellent.
Gives the person full access to your SD card through any PC/laptop using WiFi. I transfer movies and files this way daily. All protected.

iTunes Agent is a small program which enables you to synch your iTunes library or single playlists to any storage device. I don't know about videos and images, but it works great with music. Assuming you are using iTunes of course.
/edit: this is only one way though..

Does this work over wifi?

I've been trying to get a program call aFileSync to work.
it syncs through ftp via wifi with many sync options.. (looks good)
but I'm having trouble getting it to connect to my ftp (im not that ftp savy, I'm using filezilla server )

HTC Sync v3.0xxx will do this...currently seems to work and released only for Wildfire. It actually syncs with your iTunes library (one-way only though and sadly on Wifi neither - PC to Desire, don't know about Mac version)...

tunesync is my option of choice, over wifi, syncs selected playlists from itunes automatically when you are on the same network as the pc.
there is a demo on the market too.

I've just given this a go.. it works pretty good.
but it has also reminded me why I hate iTunes, its a pig of thing..
It would be nice if they could make it work with out itunes, it doesn't need to be any over the top, just a simple folder tree of all your artists and albums and check box next to each folder.
I've just found androsync which is similar but it can work from a simple m3u playlist file. I'm going to give it a go now.
and I also have to uninstall iTunes and plethora of other virus like apps it installs with it..

Sync Playlist on Mac

I am using a Macbook and had managed to sync playlists/songs/podcast to SGS after 2 weeks of seaching. Everything went a-ok but the music player in SGS was not able to recognise the playlist.... which has an extension .m3u. Any advise?

What did you end up using to sync your iTunes library?
I have a Macbook and iPhone but am going to be switching to the Galaxy S. I don't use Playlists on my iTunes.
How did you sync all your music to the phone?

salling media sync does a really nice job of syncing anything you have in iTunes to your GS, works on mac and pc. Double twist also does the job.

I use doubletwist, does a good job.

Does it sync playlists to Samsungs inbuilt player?

There are quite a few FREE choices out there, but if your willing to spend a few bucks here is what I'm using.
First off you need a Google account.
Then on your Mac, you can sync Contacts into your Google account by going into the Pref's in Contacts and adding your google account.
Next up is iCal, I use BusyCal, it works very well with Mobile Me and the Cloud, can download a fee trial to see, but it does the job to get the iCal info to and from the GS2.
Finally is Media, I've tried several ones and found that the Missing Sync does the best job to sync iTunes Music and Movies as well as a great job to sync iPhoto.
You will have to have NON-DRM music to get it on the GS2, use NoteBurner to strip it.
What I like about The Missing Sync is that I can plug in the GS2 and it will place my new photos or home videos right into iPhoto without me dragging or dropping anything, works like as if it were an iPhone. I installed an app on the GS2 called AutoMount that does what it sounds like, plug in the USB cable and it automounts the SD card, then auto syncs with the missing sync and then auto disconnects and keeps charging, its great.

SyncMate, the free version will do wonders for PIM, the premium one even adds media syncing capabilites.
If you stick with the free version, you can try using doubletwist for media. Alternatively buy Tunesync or a similar app in Android Market and go on using iTunes.

Just get a PC.

Thanx for the information.
How can i put Office and PDF files on the SD card? My iMac does not see the SD card.

You can also try iSyncr, a very nice tool to sync with iTunes.

Emails - Should be synced to email account...
Media - sync to your pc, it should be in the itunes folder of your pc
I am not sure how to do the others, if I can get a hold of my mom's iPhone I'll see how to do the others.

Does this not work?

Mind you, it looks old.

The google music software is really good for getting your iTunes music onto android. Just download the software and choose the folder where your iTunes music is stored and it uploads it all to the cloud (I think you can have 20,000 songs) then if you get the google music app on your device you can then either stream your tracks or kitchen download them to your phone.

I just want to sync my music

Simple stuff. I am looking for a program that can sync my music everytime I plug in my S4...
All it literally has to do is sync music. It doesn't have to play it or even edit the music tags or information, it simply needs to sync to my S4 external SD card. I just point the program to the folder I want to sync to and it adds everything that isn't on the SD card. just like an iPhone
Any recommendations?

I use isyncr and itunes (blasphemy I know).
But it works well for me, I have it wireless sync on a schedule both ways (playcounts, ratings, playlists). Or you can have it sync over usb (gets annoying everytime I plug my phone into the computer though tbh).
You can use whatever android media player you want - needs to be itunes on the pc though.
