i'm coming from and ipod touch (and don't ever wanna go back lol) and i was wanting to know is there anyway i can sync my music with itunes as thats where i keep my music library? i use poweramp as my default music player because imo it has the best sound quality period. i have a 32 gb card where i keep all my music and movies and i use the internal for games and apps and such
I use this.

I also come from the iTouch then sold it for the Galaxy Player 5.0 I love it! Best switch.
wow i recently had an ipod touch and i sold ( so glad i did) it . You can either just get a new sd card , or put the one you use directly into the gplayer!
Have fun and welcome the forums!
I use double twist on my pc to read and sync my itunes library to my 5.0. I have been using the double twist player on my 5.0, just havent found a player i like better yet. but i did find that my playlists didnt sync to the double twist player on the 5.0 but the stock music player had them.... so i had to make new playlists on my pc in the double twist program, i just created new playlists with the same names right next to my imported itunes lists, then copied and pasted the music into them, and then the playlist showed up in the double twist app on the 5.0.... I have now uninstalled itunes and removed all traces of apple from my pc.... I couldnt be happier..lol
I don't use it I tunes, but Airsync by double twist is meant to be good.

You could always just go into the itunes folder and drag into the music folder. Simple but works.

Player Pro does this.
Agreed +1 on player pro (current player with sense skin)
Also use the folder option as well...so that option won me over entirely
I think there is like one more player that offers a folder option (trust me I went through them ALL) but cant think of it to save my life...might of been miui player??? idk?? dont hold me to it...
I think Mixing had folder option as well. I started using Player Pro a couple years ago and never looked back.
It's good but i prefer poweramp

It has a nice interface, but messing with the EQ too much causes it to hang. And if music is playing, you can't control it in any way, the only solution is to force close the app.
I usually just use Amazon MP3 to play music. The stock Blur player leaves a lot to be desired, and Google Music doesn't (seem to?) differentiate between cloud and local playback. With Amazon MP3 it's real easy. Plus, I buy music from them and I've ripped and uploaded my CDs to their cloud (and to Google's, it's nice to have options, heh). It isn't a great player, but it's reliable. And while I enjoy music, I don't play it on my phone often enough to need a fancy player.
But, thanks for the link, it was fun to try out.
I wanted to ask the community if they could recommend an app for al my .mp3 tracks. Something that would organize my tracks, or allow me to do so, and possibly display cover art.
Free apps that are great are:
Zimly*
WinAmp
DoubleTwist
Paid apps that are awesome are:
PowerAmp*
PlayerPro
* = my choice of that group
What ROM are you on? HTC music is nice, it's what I use. I know that there are better music apps, but HTC works well. I used IDTag to make sure all the tag information and it shows up fine.
Poweramp

Try HTC music or Google music? Those are already on your phone (well, google music might not be).
Otherwise...

Thanks for the replies. I am currently using HTC music, but I would drag and drop a folder of music on the flash card. The folder is from the same music group, but the artists are different. In turn I have a mess of tracks, when I would originally like to have it show the folder, and the option to play the entire contents of the folder.

not sure if I understood right but if you want drag and drop UI like how you would put music on a ipod with itunes then definitely try out DoubleTwist. It was a Windows client that emulates itunes.

I have once used an Apple product; Ipod...and then gave it back the next week. I'll give it a shot if it makes my .mp3 experience easier.
Hi, just recently switch from IOS to android and loving it. The note is so wonderful. One question, how can I transfer all my music, playlist, play count from iTunes to my note. I have about 7 gigs of music on iTunes and have no clue how to transfer the file over. Please help!

Try double twist or isync on market. U ain't saving them play counts though
Easier way:
Go to itunes and consolidate files (search Google on howto)
Then go to that file directory on your computer (perhaps C: >iTunes>media>music)
COPY AND PASTE THE MUSIC TO THE MEDIA FOLDER OF YOUR ANDROID PHONE
Or if you have an external sd card (which I highly suggest you get) just copy and paste with no orginization
That's IT.
When you buy new music from itunes (which in practice it only makes sence to buy it from Google now) repeat this process!
NOTE: CONSOLIDATING YOUR MUSIC WILL ADD MEMORY TO YOUR COMPUTER. NOT A BIG DEAL WHATSOEVER BUT I THOUGHT ID TELL YOU.
P.s.: don't use doubletwist its a pain in the ass unless you want 2 programs doing the same thing
Playlists function the same way except you must copy the music first onto your phone. once that's complete you have to export the playlist from itunes
(Right click playlist>export>search>choose file directory [wherever your music/media is])

Go to music.Google.com.
You can open a Google music account for free and download " music manager". (It will give you this option when you register). It will automatically add your entire iTunes library to Google server and you can then listen to your music anywhere on the stream with Google play music app. Might take a while to upload everything depending on the size of your library. And you can set it to automatically upload any files you add to your iTunes library from this point forward. It works flawlessly.
A gamechanger.

I use iSyncr. I let it automatically sync to iTunes every night at 12. It also syncs playlists too.

You can go onto Samsung Kies, Then connect your device Scroll down and then there's an option for back ups find your itunes iPhone back up and Convert it
Sorry That I can't go indepth my Phone is rooted / new rom So I can't connect. x)
There are many options(almost too many), but your best bet is google music. My wife has an iPod and every time she gets a new song it automatically uploads with music manager. You can't go wrong with this option because you never have to worry about it again. If you have no need for your iTunes account anymore then you can start buying all your content from google from here on out. Another plus is no space is taken up on your sd.

OK, but...
Please correct me if I am wrong, but one big downside I see to Google Music is that you are streaming (and not syncing) all your music, correct?
I don't mind putting another copy of my library in Google Music, but it would be much more useful to me if it had some sort of iCloud/iTunes Match functionality where the local library on the phone was automatically updated when on WiFi, etc.
I have "unlimited" data, so I really don't care, but I never liked the notion of streaming my music. I would prefer to have it local.
If there is an option to sync within Google Music and not a 3rd-party app, I would really like to hear more.
Thanks!

It is absolutely that. A cloud service that stores all your media online. There is a way to make songs available offline on your phone, but I've never used it. I absolutely love it. Just download music manager to your PC or Mac and it will do the rest. Download the google music app to your phone(not a third party app) and all your iTunes songs will be there waiting for you.

To add to your good post, u select what songs u want available offline, and it caches em to your sd card. in case u have no or slow data somewhere

Very nice to know. I assumed it did just that, but never tried. Thanks

Is there a setting that just automatically downloads all songs locally to the SD card though? I have tried manually making select songs available, but that isn't the point (for me). I want more automatic, iTunes-like syncing. If you have ever used iCloud or Match you would know what I am talking about.
I don't mind using iTunes to manage my media, I just want a way to sync all my devices (iOS and Android) and keep them in automatic sync. I don't mind downloading the song once, but I am not interested in streaming. I put 32 or 64GB SD cards in my devices because I want the content local at all times.
If anyone has a more automated workflow for that, I am very interested.
Thanks again!

I use tunesync because I buy my music from Amazon, but still use itunes to manage my old jokes and ipad.
I also have a central sound system connected to my netbook, so the iOS remote app comes in handy.
Tunesync lets you automatically upload songs purchased from your phone to iTunes, and maintains play counts in itunes as well.

Hi All,
Having moved over to an S3 from a iPhone... and leaving Apple forever... I'd like to get access to all my iTunes music. Don't care about playlists and stuff... just want the music.
Questions...
1. Is there a way of getting all the music out of iTunes and into another desktop replacement for iTunes?
2. Obviously I ultimately want to get all my music onto my S3... so bearing that in mind, what the best way of integrating my phone with a desktop music player?
Ultimately I want to completely uninstall iTunes and remove Apple from my life totally!!!
Many Thanks for your advice
Either find you itunes folder and place on device or upload to Google music And store it in da cloud

There must a good way of transferring all my music from iTunes to a different desktop player which will integrate with an Android device?

if you use a pc than you can use the windows media player to synchronize your phone with your local music library. since the galaxy s3 mounts as mtp device media player will recognize it when plugged in (while media player being open) and ask you if you want to sync your stuff onto it.
another method would be installing samsung kies onto your system. i think it can sync your media files to the phone as well.
if u want cable usb tranfer
winamp is ur best bet, its a bit buggy but it works.
if u want wireless tranfers. u now have 50gb+ on dropbox, buy dropsync from store.
it amazing. it only syncs what u need, do it over wifi, to save money.
Samsung Easy Phone Sync
I think this is what you're after
http://easyphonesync.com/
There is a desktop & phone app that does exactly what you need.
Recommended by Samsung when they released the S3 as a way of getting people off iphones when their main reason for not switching was "all my songs are in itunes"
I used it myself, worked perfect although depending on how much stuff yo have you may need an extra mem card:silly:

If your on windows then open the music folder and click folder properties and unhide all files. After you done that a folder called iTunes media will appear, Click it and all your songs are there.
If you're on mac then in the search preferences click unhide all files and click it, after that go to your music folder and find the iTunes media folder and drag all the music into your s3..
i use the app iSyncr from Google Play Store, it lets u sync your Playlists, albums, last played it also supports ratings and play counts.
there's also a wifi sync support.
Their is a thread possibly a sticky for moving from ITunes but it might be in SGS2 forum .

I am a long time iTunes user and have my music library dating back to 2006. I currently have the iPhone 5 but am really considering getting the GS4. The only thing holding me back is the fact that I use music on my phone so much and rely on it everyday. I just love how iTunes and my iPhone 5 sync perfectly in order of all my songs from the date they were added, going back to 2006. I know there are many music syncing apps out there but do they really sync perfectly in order as they would with my iPhone or iPod? If anyone has been in this situation and can give me some feedback I'd appreciate it as this is a key factor in my decision of switching over. Thank you.
Well you can just drag from iTunes to your phones music library and if the mo3 tags for you're songs are correct it should show up nicely on the phone. You can always edit them too with the right music player app, I personally use poweramp and have never looked back.

I-Syncr is another great synching app. I have it so when I plug my S4 into my computer, I can select which playlists, artists, or albums sync. The app is paid, but a free trial is available.

You can always use Google music. That is what used when i switched. You can upload 20,000 songs for free, and stream them for free from browser or android app. It works great. I'm not sure if you can chose to download your music to your SD card or not. I have unlimited data so I only stream my music. That's why I haven't looked into that. I'm pretty sure you can upload music with DRM with no issues as well.
