Hi
I have just got the Xperia z1 after having a iPhone 5. All my music is organised through itunes as i have apple tv as well. I was wondering if someone can tell me if their is a desktop program that will sync my music and music videos to my phone. I have tried double twist which is excellent but for some reason where i have a folder that is songs and music videos mixed it doesnt sync the music videos, is their a program that will sync the both in one folder.
thanks

Might want to look at Sony's PC Companion software! It seems to have stuff to transfer and sync music across different platforms!

Hey all,
Has anyone found a way to sync their iTunes/Songbird/Whatever playlists to thier Nexus One?
I can make songbird sync up my music, but I can't build a playlist on Songbird and have that same playlist show up in the music app or in Cubed.
Thanks
.m3u playlists that most pc mp3 players use work on the nexus.
these also come with most of the downloaded albums.

So I dump the files on the devices, make an m3u and put cut that m3u onto the device?
Ok, so the last 3 phones I have had, I just hooked up and opened windows media player, dragged over a playlist and loaded to the phone. Now with the Captivate, I load a playlist from windows media player but the phone doesnt see the playlist, I now have to browse music by Albums or Artist. This is really annoying when some playlists have various artists, it makes a bunch of new playlists for each artist Is there a way around this, or a better music player. I have about 4K songs on the songs, a few hundred are all seperated now instead of being in their respective playlists. Im not gonna sit there and create playlists
I see a Playlists folder with the lists I loaded frmo windows media player, but I cant access these Playlists through the stock app
You posted in wrong section. Thiis is for Developement for Captivate not general questions or help questions about getting something to work.
try the stock player for the android, I know that recognizes the m3u's or try doubletwist
Sorry about the wrong section, but yea I tried the stock music player on my Captivate. Didn't recognize the playlists.
This is a known issue - many people are using alternate music players that do recognize playlists. The Captivate seems to store its "phone created" playlists in a DB somewhere.
What else do you recommend other than double twist.

Media Monkey is a great PC solution - I like it much much much better then Doubletwist - but you need a player that supports M3U playlists - most music players do.
i've had my Thrill for 3wks now, and I'm going nuts now trying to transfer my music to the phone and keep the iTunes playlists and songs I HAD CHECKED TO SYNC but not the songs UNCHECKED i didn't want on my iphone...
Doubletwist doesn't sync the to sd micro card, only built-in memory, itunes agent was unsuccessful... what do you guys use, if not iTunes, to sync your music w/tags and album art and all? i don't put every single mp3 i own on my phone, so i don't want to hand pick individual mp3s out of my over 3000 songs to redo the album art and sync them one by one.
i love the 3D of the Thrill, can't get enough - but android and no useful way to transition music, photos, and videos is making me think about switching back... PLEASE HELP.
Try winamp it can import from itunes and will keep playlists, and sync to sd card.

Google Music
Download Google Music to the same machine that has iTunes on it. Upload the playlists that you want to have on your phone into Google Music. Install google music on your thrill. Select the playlist you want to keep available on your phone (rather than streaming from the cloud) and check the box that says "available offline" while you're connected to wifi and let it do its thing.
It works great for me, and also makes it so that I have 20000 of my songs available on every android device (or other computer) I use.

I feel bad that you've had to get used to iTunes. I've done it in the past and absolutely refuse to do it again. Such a pain the ass that program...
Google Music is very nice as it does most of the hard work for you as far as albums and renaming itself. It's also a lot easier to transfer what you want to a droid device. It's also very easy to dump off the device when compared to an iPod or iPhone.
I have an 80 iPod classic. I've never used a phone as a music player besides the occasional Pandora.
i use spotify on pc
I just got a Lumia 920 and I absolutely hate the music players they have on it. The Nokia app is only a little better than the stock Xbox music app. For one thing, you can't specify where to look for your music, so it adds any MP3 file on the phone to your music list, which makes doing shuffle a pain. And for some reason, it is impossible to get a playlist on the phone unless all the songs are in the same folder. Anyone know a decent music player, or at least a way to get a good playlist on the phone? I tried using Mediaplayer from the pc and no luck.
Thanks for any help!
yeah and i cannot see all songs now playing (album tracks), only one. I cannot see how many songs in album remains and cannot select another. It sucks
I have found really nice alternative music player. It is simple, but usefull: Album flow
here is link: http://www.windowsphone.com/pl-pl/s...26b-0d29-4e6a-849f-0fd6b8fc10dc?wa=wsignin1.0

Disagree totally. On my Nokia Lumia the player is pretty nice, does what it's supposed to. Has an equalizer with presets and manual, suggests Nokia MixRadio channels where locally played music can be found (great to find other good music) and shows background images of the playing band from the net. It's actually a very nice player.

Just if you compare it to a stone. if you compare it to a decent music player it sucks. but in regards of your other postings i sense you dont care about the rest anyways
I ended up dumping my 920 and going back to Android on a Samsung S3, and much happier now. Not just for the music player (though PowerAmp is awesome!), but for the horrendous lack of basic features. Too bad, I really wanted to like my Windows phone.
I also don't care for the music player apps available on the Lumia 920. I keep hoping for a Rockbox port - mostly because it supports all the codecs I have.
Great alternative for music player on wp

I play mostly local music stored on my phone. And for those uses musictastic is by far the best player I have found. Its free, reads playlists I create on my desktop from windows media player, looks great, shuffle fun too works as it should, and displays album art correctly. Definetly worth a try.
Hi
My girlfriend has an android tablet that she wants to play music from, the music is on my NAS.
I use iTunes on my computer for editing audio files on the NAS , even my girlfriend thinks it's easy to use iTunes when you can have playlists and it is also easy to just select an artist or an album.
I have a lot of MP3 files and she does not want to listen to all of them.
So I need an app that plays MP3 songs from my NAS and you should be able to create playlists.
I have search google play and read many forum threads but found nothing.
My NAS is a LaCie CloudBox 4TB
Make suggestions and i will I test them
Nothing?
Have i put the thread in the wrong category?
