Downloaded Double Twist for Mac. Installed it successfully.
Goal is to transfer iTunes music to my DNA.
Then I plug in my phone to my Mac and see a prompt to download HTC SYNC.
Download appears complete and successful.
But....I cannot find the HTC Sync app installed on my phone. Anywhere.
Somehow I missed a step or setting on my phone?
Where is the download for HTC Sync app?
Any help would be much appreciated.

the HTC sync can either be downloaded from the HTC website or if you open up a file explorer on your computer, you should see a 'disc' for the htc sync app when you plug in your phone.

Yes.....it is there.
But after I download HTC sync to my phone from the HTC site.....it is not on the phone.
The download for some reason does not transfer to the phone.
I know that there is a very simple answer as to why I am not getting the download.
I'm so confused.... Just use Google music. 20,000 songs per Gmail account completely free.

Don't like to start a post and if I get an answer somewhere else just never follow up.
Somebody (non intuitive like myself) might be curious as to the answer.
After being here a bit I realize that this forum is not for the 'beginner'.
At any rate for anyone who might care about this query the simple answer is to forget Double Twist and Music Manager etc. etc. and just download an app called "Easy Phone Tunes" to both your android and Mac or PC.
The transfer is as easy as answering a phone call. Even for me.
As to the confusion to the above poster as to why not just go to Goggle Music Library and find 20,000 songs there?
Why would you do that when with on click you can transfer 1500 or any number of songs to your Android set from iTunes?
Am I going to start from the beginning and search for those 1500 plus songs in a new OS?

I just came across this just now. According to Droid Life, there is a new google music apk when the test market was accidently released. I was curious if anyone has gotten sync to work? Possibly using titanium to remove the HTC music app then installing the new google music apk? I'm currently tied up at work and school and unable to test this out.

Look over in the development forum. I posted a copy of the leaks. The music app works without uninstalling anything.
Thanks!

Under Accounts & sync, click Google. You should now have a 'Sync Music' option.
I tried this last night and never really got it to work properly. I have like 10 gigs of music on my phone and it continued to sync all night and through today. I finally chose to shut off the sync option and run with what's on my phone. Not like I'm running out of room with this monster sd card lol. I'll let them get it officially up and running first. I just clicked on the instructions link in the other thread. They're easy to follow, all seemed to go smooth. Dunno. Maybe it does work, and I should have chose to test with just a few songs instead.
What applications are you getting to work for the vtab?
I can get yahoo messenger to work but cant download the plugins for video
I cant get the buttons to show up for skype.
Trillian says its loading and signs me out of yahoo but doesnt finish.
I use trillian with google, facebook, and msn with no issues. I also use the new google voice+sprint for texting/chat.

How did you get Google voice working? When I install it, I go through the setup process, and when I get to the section about setting up voicemail (which obviously won't work) I get an error.
I believe the choices on the error are "cancel" (which let's you try again, to no avail obviously) or "skip". When I press skip, it just dumps me back to the same page of the setup I'm on (voicemail), but both the back and forward buttons are greyed out...
Now, the funny thing is that Google Voice is now running! If I get a text, it pops up in the notification bar. But if I want to go into Google Voice manually and write a text, I can't because I can't get past the setup process...very annoying.
I also use Google Voice on a real phone (HTC Magic on t-Mobile) using the same Google account....would that make a difference?
someone did a mod to the voice .apk, I don't remember which forum I got it from. I will put it on my dropbox and post the link here in a few. The modified .apk allows you to skip the phone settings part where you got stuck.
update:
I didn't think I would find it this quick on my computer. I uninstalled google voice then reinstalled using this one and it works like a champ

Thanks, that worked perfectly! I wasn't able to uninstall the old version (said it was a system app, not uninstallable), so I installed the new one right on top of the old one, no trouble.
You can also just upgrade to the current Google Voice in the market. The skip button works fine in it.

sweet, then I'll pull my super secret dropbox version off.
does someone was able to sync apps from phone with Appbrain? me not! any hint? thanks in advance
I got it to work...
So, I installed Appbrain on both my Evo and Flyer under the same email address. Sync both devices to Appbrain.
When i log on to appbrain.com, both the Flyer and Evo are listed as my devices. I click on my Evo and place checkmarks next to all the apps I want to copy over to my Flyer.
Then, I click on Add to List and select my My Flyer.
Once done, sync your Flyer to Appbrain and presto! You can execute your installs. Mind you, if the app cannot run on this version of Android, it will not install nor show up in your list for the Flyer.
Still doesn't work. Is showing sync, but it doesn't... I' ll try another version

Hi,
Did you properly sign in on AppBrain in the app first? Are you using the default browser (some alternative browsers cannot handle the Android intent model properly and prevent you from signing in).
yes! I use default browser!
L.E. ....aaaaaaa ok. Thanks bro! I got it! I fix it. My mistake: on computer I sign in with google account, and in my device I create another account.

Still does not work for me. I have signed in to the computer, Phone and Flyer all with the same account. It shows an app being downloaded with an option to cancle the install but the app never shows up on the flyer.
Hello
I am trying to sync Itunes with my Xperia S. I am trying to use itunes agent as i have on all previous phones but when i try to select the folder on the phone to copy to (music folder) i cant.. its grayed out..... i believe this may be due to needing to change the usb connection mode but i cannot do this on the phone...... Any idea?

I use notpod, its excellent
Search the Google Play store for "itunes" and you'll get tons of results, like the excellent DoubleTwist...
I installed "Sony PC Companion" from the phone and after that I updated the components including "Media Go" and with that I added my iTunes library from my PC to my phone.
With Media Go you can also connect other Android phones/tablets and upload music, movies and podcasts.
I tested it with my LG O2x.

Yup, Sony gave you the software already.
I'm surprised how many people complain without actually trying stuff.
I mean, if I had NOT installed PC companion, the first thing I would do is search the android market for "itunes" or google "how to sync itunes with android".
I know about double twist and I have installed the sony software already and of course I have looled elsewhere for help First.
But I still prefer itunes. The problem seems to be the phone wont let me change the usb connection mode so I cannot use itunes agent.
Does anyone know how to overcome this
Problem ?

@ James: I'm dealing with the same problem (I can not change the usb connection from mobile device to removable disk) and was wondering if you've fixed the problem in the mean time since your last post...
I wanted to know if there was a computer software out there somewhere that would allow me to view and arrange my apps on my phone like you can do with iTunes with an Apple device?
You can do this if you have a HTC Phone with HTC Sync Manager

Well there are many third party options which you can probably find online.
