I just googled "itunes playlist android". Apparently This app should be able to do what you need: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.easyphonetunes.android.app&hl=en

Music playlists

so, in which format does it save the playlists i create and where? i'm guessing there's no way to back them up without root, right?
any way i could transfer the playlists from my laptop and Hero would actually recognize and use those?
creation is hard enough without music sync app, going thru it after every update/reset is a total bicht :/
Hi,
I have used mediamonkey to transfer the albums and playlists. Once you configure, it saves the playlists correctly in sd card.
You can find the instructions here:

[Q] Music Transfer. What are people using?

With my X10i, i got use to using Media Go.
Arranges folders etc on the SDCard under a folder caused Music.
Obviousley i copied this filde from my SDCard onto my S2 Sdcard.
Im still using Media Go for now, but have to manually refresh/rescan in Poweramp eveytime.
Anyone else having this issue.
Back on topic. Whats people using to transfer music? I like to make sure they have covers etc, and to continue putting them into the SdCard/Music foldr, into relevant artists foldr etc.
I'm not sure about the relevant artists function but I use doubleTwist because it pulls the playlists from itunes and syncs all the music with your phone in a folder called music on your sd card if you want. I think if you wanna use poweramp you have to manually re-scan your library every time new music is added, not sure about that though.

[Q] looking for something to replace doubletwist?

it's awful and can't handle it when you have an sd card as well as internal storage. every time i transfer new songs onto the phone my playlists show up as empty and i have to remount usb, remove the doubletwist folder and dismount one drive before the other, then wait ages. if i dismount in the wrong order it doesn't work
any music player that can handle playlists that you can make on the PC and not on the phone?
if you're able to create a playlist with relativ filepaths it should work.
But as i know most players use the absolute filepath and this wont work on your phone.
Try a app called MUSIC FOLDER PLAYER. I don't know.if it's available from google play but you'll find it in Samsung apps. It's got some nice features a decent equaliser and plays each folder from where you left off. PS it's got a different name tagging feature so It may sort out your problem.

I too am on CM7 and put all my iTunes music on my X2. Unfortunately, I don't think there's a way to make your phone and iTunes sync directly with each other. What I do is I make a folder on my desktop and name it "Music", then I highlight all my songs in iTunes and drag and drop them into that folder on my desktop. I then plug in my phone and just copy that entire "Music" folder onto my phone's sd card using the simple drag and drop method. After that usually whatever music app you have can find the folder easily.

I have had issues transferring music to my phone as well. I've used windows media player, drag and drop and dropbox. Still won't play the music. It says it doesn't support this type of media. It seems it will only play mp3 files and not wma. Also I lose all of my album info and the songs show up as filenames and don't display the artist.

Yea very few media apps will play .wma files.
Give PowerAmp a shot, I think that will work. I know there is a paid version, not sure of there's a free version though.

Google Play Music Option?

Hi there, I have a lot of music downloaded into Google Play, but I was wondering if there was a way I could go into the settings with a computer to find the files and copy it from there, and put it into the music folder? Is there a way I could do that? So I could delete the google play app, I don't like that it will automatically edit the music on the phone if you did it on the computer.
Another reason is that I like the music widget, and I want that to appear for all my songs, not just in my phone. So I want to move all my music that is downloaded to google play music to my phone. Does that make sense? And is there a way to do so?
Google Music songs are stored online at "Google Music"

I know that, I downloaded it to my device so now it is stored on the phone memory in the app itself. Is there a way to transfer that into the music folder?
Easiest way is just to download it onto your computer then transfer across.
When you say you downloaded it to your device, did you do it through the app and select songs to keep for offline listening? If you did that, then the files saved aren't actually the music files. I'm not sure what they are, but they are only readable by Google Music.
What you can do (to build off of madflier's post) is go to the Music Manager on your desktop, and there will be a tab to download some or all of your music from Google Music onto your computer. You can then move the music into a folder on your phone and listen there.
