itunes songs onto diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Does anyone know the easiest way to put songs purchased through itunes, which means they are copyright protected, onto the diamond.

hhmmm apple don't copy protect songs anymore all stuff is unDRM utunes plus these days
I use coreplayer as player because some other players have problems with some m4a files not sure why
I use itune agent to sync itune libs to my sdcard adds album art and that stuff too
and they also offer free converts for older DRM procted stuff one already have

itunes aac files - how do I play them?

I have some education audio clips I downloaded from an Emergency Medicine website that I want to play on my Tilt.
I tried using TCPMP 0.71RC but says I don't have the AAC codec. I did some searching around this forum and there was mention that version 0.81 has the codec I need but is grossly slower.
SO, what is the standard everyone uses around here for itunes/aac file playing around here?
Thanks!
Mmmm.. maybe this one?

thanks that worked... now I just have to get this damn playlist thing figured out
I recommend PocketMusic v5.0. It costs a few bucks, but I think it's worth it... Has support for AAC, OGG etc..
Yes.... I use it as well

iTunes stuff on Tilt w/WMMP
This may help some of you trying to use playlists you've created in iTunes that you want to be able to use to play aac files with Windows Mobile Media Player on your Tilt. It took me a long time to get this figured out; hopefully I can save you some.
I have roughly 120gb of music files in iTunes, all of which are aac formatted. I don't want to mess around with converting any of them to another format (and be creating dupe files) so that WMP can see and play them, which is a necessary step if you want any sync capability with your Tilt - without drag copying the files and then having to manually create playlists a song at a time. The playlist thing is the key though. Many of us have spent HOURS developing playlists in iTunes only to be stymied when trying to use them on a ppc (or a Treo like my old 650 for that matter running Pocket Tunes).
Thanks largely to the excellent support people at NormSoft (makers of Pocket Tunes, which is a great, great app), here's the solution I've cobbled together. First, get this: http://www.3ivx.com/download/ - you can try it for free, but the version you need beyond that is less than $10. Install it on your pc. Now open WMP and tell it to add your iTunes folder to the library. You should start to see all your aac files show up - not necessarily with album art and all the tags, but that's another, less important issue, at least to me. You also won't be able to do this with protected (drm) files.
Now dload Playlist Creator from here: http://www.oddgravity.de/ and open it after installing it. Open iTunes. Select a playlist in iTunes. Select all the tunes in that playlist and drag them over onto the Playlist Creator window which will populate it. Tell Playlist Creator where to put the playlist(s) you're about to create (you can create a new folder I think) - I made one I call "My Generated Playlists". Give the playlist a name and make sure you save it as a m3u playlist (not pls.). Click the "Create Playlist" button. Go back to WMP and tell it to add your generated playlists folder to the library. Now it'll show up as a playlist in WMP that you can select and play tunes from. Connect your Tilt. Drag the playlist to the Sync List sidebar. Hit the start sync button. Voila. The songs AND the playlist(s) are now on your Tilt. I haven't done this with huge playlists yet, just 20 song or so ones right to the Tilt's memory (not an expansion card - I'm waiting for delivery of one), but it seems to work.
Hope I got this all right and it works for you too. Enjoy.
The zip file in post 2 worked a treat on my old XDA II. Thanks Laurentius26!

Audio and Browser Questions

Please be patient, I am new to HTC and WM6 and I'm hoping to get some recommendations
I have about 4GB of music on my micro SD that I copied off my iPod, so it's in acc format which the audio manager doesn't recognize. I downloaded TCPMP and the acc plugin and it plays the music but its doesn't show the song info (title, artist etc) till you open the song.
Also you can't search by artist, or genre like you can in audio manager
Can anyone recommend a good audio player or someway to get audio manager to recognize acc files
I really prefer opera mini over IE but I have to go into the java app first to select it, is there anyway to get an opera shortcut onto the start screen
I really appreciate any advice or tips for the newbie questions
Opera Mobile is designed for smartphones and should give you a regular icon to load it with, mini is made primarily for regular phones with only their crappy build in browsers which is why it works only in java.
iTunes music is the most annoying on planet earth. You can convert it to mp3 or delete the DMA off of it to allow it to play properly but its time consuming and annoying. I dont know of any plugin for Audio Manager that will allow you to play the iTunes music, only what other people have created for other players.
Now if these songs were once full on mp3's or cd's that you copied into iTunes you would be better off copying / ripping those files over to the sd card.

Yeah most of it is CD rips, I was hoping to avoid having to rip them again
When you initially ripped them did you tell iTunes to connect to the net and pull the information and creat an id3 tag for it? If not then thats why none of the track info is pulling over. iTunes will read the title / cd / artist name off the disct but when you use them as mp3's or in other players I have heard of some issues with the information not being read properly...
All my music is in mp3, ogg, FLAC and other formats on my computer, if my wife wants anything she pulls it over. She has bought some things off iTunes but they are such a pain to use elsewhere that eh.
You should have set ITunes to only rip to MP3 for compatibility reasons such as this. I'm not too sure what/if anything can read aac files on Windows Mobile. I know their is a way to get Opera Mini's icon as well as a way to have it function as your default browser (that is clicking on hyperlinks in e-mails, sms, ect) bring you to Opera Mini. There's quite a lot of info on that if you search.
As far as Opera Mobile, yea it may be designed for Smartphone, and yea it may be better than IE, but it does not in anyway compete with Opera Mini in terms of speed and website rendering.

[Q] How to play .mp4 audio files (iTunes)

I have converted from an iPhone to the HTC Fuze. I still have some audio files that are .mp4. I am interesting in playing audio more than video. Can I get the stock player to play these?
If not, what is the best player to download (for free) for playing audio .mp4 files?
Thanks
If they are DRMed, you'll have to search on how to un-DRM them (I wouldn't ask about that here though). If they are not DRMed, you can play them in Windows Media Player.
I know about the DRM thing, but last time I checked, Windows Media does not play mp4. Am I wrong?
With regard to audio files from iTunes (m4a/AAC/mp4 or whatever you want to call them), they will play just fine via the music player interface in Touch Flo 3d. The only problem I've encountered is that for some reason the audio manager will not sort songs in track order. As yet I have not found a fix for this (and no one else seems to be asking about it either). Still, at least I didn't have to convert my iTunes library into MP3 files ; )
Purchased tracks will not play (in fact they will not even be visible).
Digital Rights Management (DRM) is a coding/decoding algorithm mainly used by iTunes to protect the artist and to ensure that the artist gets money for his work since you as a consumer ay have purchased a song or album online. All your own CD's which you may have read-in (ripped) through iTunes will play without any problems.
DRM files, though they appear as MP4 files, cannot be played without the appropriate decoder (iTunes for example).
Ways and methods HOW to bypass this mechanism MUST NOT be discussed here in the forum, do a google research if you interested in.
BTW same issues may happen if you go from iPhone to iPhone or transfer files from PC to PC even if you backed up your iTunes license.
You may bear an Apple store a visit or call Apples cust. support they can provide you with a special key that you do not have to purchase all your songs again.

Track sorting seems to be a general problem of the TF3D player. If you for example have an album which contains two CDs the TF3D player is not able to sort it correctly. It's stupidly sorting:
Track 1 CD1
Track 1 CD2
Track 2 CD1
Track 2 CD2
[...]
Therefore I'm using Pocket Player instead.

Is there a way to launch Pocket Player from TF3D in place of the in-unit player?? I have been searching for an answer for a week here and found not a clue. Any help with this would be appreciated, otherwise I will just launch from programs as I am now doing, but it seems a waste to have a nice tab wasted!

No, I don't think so. Unfortunately the only think you can do is completely disabling the TF3D player by removing it with AdvancedConfig.
I wonder if it's possible to at least get the Audio Manager to play tracks according to file name. At least that way if tracks were numbered 01, 02 etc that would get around the problem of it not seeing the track number in the tag.
Trouble is I can't work out how to do this.... I've been rumaging in the registry under HKLM\software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng but there doesn't seem anything obvious to me. Maybe a key could be added? Anyone got any ideas?
How about mp4 video?
It took 20 minutes to load a video mp4 file onto my microsd card, but it's there. Windows Media Player won't recognize it. The video player app portion of the camera will actually play the file, but it takes several seconds to launch and is generally choppy after that. It's a shame, too, because the video quality is great ... it's just very choppy.
Is there Windows Mobile player out there somewhere that plays these mp4 files SMOOTHLY? I knew the Tilt had issues with the driver not playing video smoothly, but I didn't think it was a problem with the Fuze. Sure would like to watch some quality video in mp4 mode on my Fuze rather than my video ipod.
I love this forum, alot of smart people here (usually).
To talk of disabling software or this drm would be wrong. But Itunes itself posesses a way for you to back up your music. Its totally legit, and a common problem out there. (itunes not playing on winmo or other devices).
So if its a totally legit way of using the itunes program itself, to simply create a backup of your songs... why is it so horrible to discuss?
No one is suggesting hacking or disabling the drm, simply getting the music they paid for to work.

iTunes Music with DRM, how to play?

I have a lot of music from iTunes store (DRM protected). So I transfer music on Internal Storage, but Diamond not play this musics... Is it possible to get it work?
http://www.pocketmind.com/pocketmusic.htm this one got a addon which cost
which let you play acc drm stuff
but you do know that apple removed drm right?
you can convert all old music with DRM you bought to
unDRM m4a files for free
so it seem a bit silly to pay for a program when you can just
convert for free
many free players play m4a files
I tried convert on Mac but no any app convert... Every time show error...
on pc I just right click the DRM acc song and choose convert to whatever it's called
maybe create acc version
Ok, I'll try. Thanks or help.
How to play iTunes videos and music on Xoom
Apple was reasonably generous with its DRM restrictions–allowing you to play your purchased movies on up to five computers, burn it to CD, and play it on an unlimited number of iPads, iPods and iPhones–but what if you’re playing with an Android slab instead of an iPad?
You can still put the iTunes movies or music onto an Android tablet, but will be told by your tablet that it can not play them due to protections.
So if you want get your iTunes Videos and music ported over to the Xoom, just remove DRM portections with a DRM remoal software. PavTube recently released iTunes Remover and Converter Software called ChewTune, You can have a try.

Remove drm copy protection and enjoy video and ebooks freely
Hi, because of drm copy protection, you can't enjoy them directly. To edit and remove DRM from protected video and audio files, so that you can easily enjoy DRM movie and music in iPad, iPod and other portable devices, download a DRM Removal to complete all the work. Get it from: drmremovalfree.net

[Q] can i play apple lossless in m7

i once was using ios devices and ipod, so i use itunes, and i have created a large music lib by itunes, with a lot of apple lossless format music, so i am wondering is there a way to play apple lossless files on htc m7
Any solution?
why wouldnt there be? im pretty sure pretty much every smart phone supports files like flac
I have a similar problem.
I can't drag my flac file directly to the device and I can only sync my flac file with HTC SYNC.
Any solution?

that would be a way but i have already got so much of apple lossless .m4a files, and i samply dont want to convert the files into other format, i mean that work is useless, and the lost of the sound quality is irreparable, cause i dont have the orginal cd copy anymore.
thx any way.
I have a flac file on my HTC one, dragged from PC to internal storage. It plays fine with power amp.
You can use iSyncr ( I think that's the name? ) to Sync you're phone with iTunes, it's handy. I use it since lots of my stuff ( mainly podcasts ) are on stinking iTunes.
