Transferring music to my galaxy

I'm a converted iPhone/iTunes user. This is my first android phone. What's the easiest way to get my music out of iTunes onto my Galaxy?
Thanks.

If you just use google music and download the music manager, from there choose the file folder for your iTunes library and google music will upload it all. You can just use google music to stream only, or you can make it available offline and download the music

Or you can just copy and paste your music folder onto the phone.
Then there are also other sync options like DoubleTwist which is very similar to iTunes (don't use it myself but it's known to be like an iTunes for Android if you're into that sorta thing)
search for iSyncr in the Market

I just transfered my library like this, but the tags are all messed up. The tags are fine on my iDevices, just the Galaxy. Specifically the Albums are split up. They show up as different albums even though they have the same name.
Mine show up fine. Although I am pretty meticulous on editing my tags in iTunes. Could be that there are different entries for the Artist and Album Artist.
I just copied and pasted. The only thing lost from iTunes to the phone was album artwork. Which is slightly annoying but, something I can live with. I tried using kies to do it that was a mistake though.

I just switched over to CM7, and the same music folder is showing up fine. Maybe it was just the stock rom.

Yeah. I'd rather just use Windows explorer.
Thanks for all the suggestions!

Yeah windows explorer is the best way to go. When I tired kies it was.to see if I would keep the artwork. None of the tags stayed at all. So I had to delete and use windows explorer again.

I made a playlist for my galaxy in iTunes then synced the playlist to Doubletwist. It copied the playlist over minus some artwork. I've got the artwork now. All is well.

I use iSyncr, the best app you can get to sync all of your iTunes playlist (every single one off them). I also came from an iPhone and at the beginning had difficulty finding an app that would provide all the functions itunes had from the music aspect.
Try it.

Best itunes contender for our phones!?

Despite never looking back since binning my iphone (actually it got nicked!) I have missed the use of itunes on my Galaxy, and the ability to download music on the go. What music download/purchase apps are, the best? What's being used and which has the best database of tracks?!
Thanks in advance!

Why download when you can stream?
This opens the gates for things like Spotify and such.
You can try Amazon Mp3 store download from there.
I like TuneTribe here in the UK in the weekends albums 320kbps are priced at £4 in the evenings much cheaper than iTunes and better quality, the top 100 albums.

There are countless apps on the market which use sites like Kontakte to download music.
Countless apps? Any recommendations? Streaming is all good and I do use spotify, thing is I need music when I'm offline too. Maybe I'll give amazon a look...

How to sync music with iTunes?

Coming from the Iphone for many years, is there a way to use iTunes to sync music onto the Galaxy S3? I have all my music organized there so I hope I don't have to switch.
isyncr has been working well for me.

I used a program called Itunes agent...it should work as long as you can get the phone connected in USB hard drive mode. It creates a playlist in your itunes library with the device name and you drag the music you want into that playlist.

How does Isyncr work? The thing is that I don't want the complete itunes library on my phone, are you able to select?

[Q] how download music

Ok I am totally at a loss. How do I get my iTunes music down to my HTC One?
I tried:
1) HTC Sync Manager - it crashes, restarts, and repeats so I uninstalled it
2) I installed Google Music and uploaded some songs there - not showing on device
3) I connected USB and tried dragging from iTunes to drive representing device - no dice
Why is it this hard?

Get the HTC sync manager from the HTC website. It will import from iTunes and sync to your phone. No annoying middleware to install on the phone like isyncr or anything.

HTC Sync was too slow. Windows Media player was too slow. iTunes obviously won't work.
I just went to my music folder and dragged my music to my phone.
I did not find sync manager slow at all. Could be the storage drive it is writing data to is slower at writing than mine... Who knows. Ymmv on this stuff regardless.

Regardless, OP asked about getting his iTunes music on his One, not how to pirate.

Convert your itunes songs to mp3s and drag them into a file, then put that file with your music onto your one.

Easy Phone Tunes. Been using it for 3 years now, easily syncs 1000+ songs neatly onto your phone.

I decided to just drag all my artist folders created by iTunes in to sdcard/music. Don't have to deal with large sync manager or any other software. So when u add music I just do the music in to automatically add to iTunes folder, then go to the media/music folder and drag the newly created artist folder on to my phone.

Ive heard doubletwist has a good app to transfer music. However I recommend ditching all that and just use Spotify and pay for premium. ^.^
go to my music folder , copy it to the phone:laugh:

long time ago I used a app called iSyncr it sync iTunes playlist from iTunes to android phone

If its just on the ipod and not in itunes then you are going to need to get the music onto you pc first before you get it onto the android. Something like "SharePod" i think it was called will let you do that. There are others that will let you pull the music out of an ipod backup also, I had mixed success with that. One the music is out, put it in itunes and then use either DoubleTwist or iSyncr to get it onto the android.
