Here's a short help page on how to send the debug package. please send us a debug package from your PC by holding down SHIFT while right-clicking on the doubleTwist icon in the System Tray and selecting "Send log files…". If the cloned playlist still isn't syncing completely. Then try to sync that cloned playlist to your device. What you can also try is to create a cloned version of a playlist that isn't syncing completely. That was my experience anyway.I'm sorry that you're experiencing problems with syncing.Īre you getting any errors during the sync? Those other programs may be fine on a PC,(I wouldn't bet on DoubleTwist though), but on a Mac, for less than the price of a Starbucks, Isyncr cannot be beat. ![]() From downloading the App until I was listening to my music on my Droid was 10 minutes tops. It just pulls up a list of your playlists off of iTunes, you check the ones you want to sync, press sync, and that's it. The Isyncr interface is sleek and simple. When opened, the App gives simple instructions on mounting your Android device to your computer and opening the Isyncr program. Literally I downloaded the App, opened it in the Droid. Had I known it would be so easy, I would have gladly paid 5X that much 3 days ago just to get back the hours I was fooling with DoubleTwist and Songbird. Out of desperation, and based on others comments in this thread, I paid $2.99 for the paid version of Isyncr from the App Market. I opened up my music player, found my songs, but alas no playlists. I did install the FolderSync add-on chose my playlists, I synced the playlists I wanted, it loaded the music on my Droid. The first problem I encountered on Songbird for the Mac was that the add-ons Searayman said I needed in this post, MSC Device Support and MTP Device Support, are not available for the Mac version. Songbird seemed sleek and smooth initially, much better than DoubleTwist. So I uninstalled DoubleTwist and based on comments in this thread, installed Songbird. Forget that Doubletwist was buggy on the MAC, that it kept getting hung up, that some iTunes playlists didn't show up in DoubleTwist on the Mac, the main problem was that after syncing 6GB of songs were all in the Droid but the play lists are nowhere to be found. ![]() I spent a total of probably 4-6 hours trying to get DoubleTwist and the Songbird to transfer playlists. Maybe DoubleTwist and Songbird work well on the PC, but the Mac versions are, frankly, awful.Īll I want to do is transfer playlists to my Droid. I have got to concur with the previous recommendation on Isyncr. Meantime, people seem to really like MediaMonkey.Īnother Vote For Isyncr, especially if using a Mac I plan to give it a year or so and hope it will work then. It's such a pretty program, and I love the "Artists on Tour" addon. My phone was only able to find about 1/3 of my music, and no metadata, whereas with drag & drop, it could read everything. Plus when you try to set the options to organize the music into nice folders as you transfer it onto the phone, it says it will do it, but doesn't. Folder sync just copies the source file, but without metadata. Even when I choose "Sync all music, videos, and playlists," Songbird appears to think it has synced everything in the library, but in reality, NO files have been transferred to my Droid. There's been all this talk that once you download Songbird 1.4, the MSC Support add-on makes it possible to sync with a remote device. I've also gathered 3 is a pretty good player - sadly, not compatible with Incredible yet.Īfter much, much, MUCH tinkering, requests for help on the Songbird site, and a lot of research on every available workaround, I am uninstalling Songbird. but maybe that's stuff most people don't care about. It doesn't give file info: bit-rate, file size, file type, sampling frequency, bit-depth, etc. Automatically downloads artwork, reads tags properly, suggests music based upon user's library, allows you to choose between internal and external storage, scrobbles to last.fm. Anyone used/like MixZing? Much better than native players. Fails to pick up full codec support on device, however - only mp3 - meaning that Songbird refuses to sync all other (device supported) filetypes.ġ.8a (nightly): Fails to see both storage areas on device. Who knew? Back to Songbird:ġ.43 (current): doesn't recognize onboard storageġ.71a (stable nightly): recognizes storage - both onboard and SD - though it does mix them up. ![]() So far, I'm actually having my best syncing experience with WMP12. I pulled a couple Songbird nightly builds, and reported bugs accordingly.
