Hey there,
I have an iPod Nano 8GB and a lot of PodCasts. I arrange all of my Music and PodCasts with iTunes and now would like to sync them as easily on my HTC Kaiser (TyTN II) as I can on my iPod.
I found a lot of software capable of reading RSS feeds I add manually but I want to use my iTunes. On the Mac there's "The Missing Sync" which syncs my iTunes Playlists including my PodCasts on my Windows Mobile PDA. Is there a solution which works the same on WinXP?
Regards,
NiTeSHiFT
OK, Think I found a solution:
Freeware: iTunes Sync:
http://www.binaryfortress.com/itunes-sync/
Will give it a try tonight when I'm back from work.
My Phone doest show up as a drive letter, so iTunes sync wont work has anyone else found a solution?

Alternatively Is there anyway of making a winmoble device appear as a drive letter in windows XP

WMP10 PLAYLISTS / SYNCING / BOOKMARKS AAARRGGHHHHHH!!!!!
:evil: Sorry people but I'm F*%@!ng! fuming over this. The reason I like Winamp is becuase you hear something you like and all you do is "Add to Bookmarks", couldn't be simpler, and easy to copy and backup and replace, I wonder if Pocket Music is this simple? probably.
BUT WMP10 what a frikin knightmare!. I've tried the Windows Media Player 10 Mobile help sights, tried some of the SYNCING things, it did sync 29 things??? but still hasnt transfered My Playlists looking in the WMP Library on the XDA. SO in frustration I copy "My Playlists" from My Docs on my main PC to my PocketPC's Docs AND Storage Card to a folder called My Playlists, I Open WMP10 on the XDA, then using File Explorer in XDA to find the My Playlists then try to open them that way, oh no of course it isn't going to frikin work is it!! Playlists for WMP aren't associated with WMP10 eh!??? WTF!!! Why can't they make it simpler!!!??? AND I cant "FIND or SEARCH" the "My Playlist Folder" associated with WMP10 in my XDA, for the life of me someone please help me out.. :roll: sorry for the rant but I cant be the only one having this problem.
Welcome to M$ !!!
They way I use it:
- Check that all your music is in the WM10 library on your PC.
- You need to have all the playlists you want to sync in WM10 on your PC.
- WM10 (again the PC side) has a "sync" tab, which you need to use for synching to get your playlists to your PocketPC. Check the playlists you want to sync in the sync settings, hit "sync"
- You're done!
If you are using another music player and DON'T want to use WM10, you're out of luck....
Please excuse my noobness.

ok I just went to the Library and found My Playlists with the Radio Stations I like, clicked on Sync, found the folder on My pocketpc to send to, picked one and ticked it on the PC side, highlighted it, hit the green Start Sync button.. ERROR the player may not support the file... tryed a few more , same thing.. please excuse my noobness, I like to stream radio stations off the net, How do I "Add Bookmark" as it were into my own folder say My Playlists? I was able in version 9 but not 10 it seems. i'll keep trying, and thanks I'm getting closer.
Went into Sync settings
Went into Sync settings, ticked all the radio playlists, found My Playlists in My Documents on pocketpc & storagecard..
ERROR the player may not support the file...
tried a few more , same thing.. I made sure the player wasnt playing at the time, I have had no problem with active sync so far its the latest version, firewall is ok in program controls, and it's a very recent ROM, I have been able to stream 32kbps streams using a neighbors wifi connection but can't even manualy drag drop some playlists.
I feel your pain. I gave up on the sync thing with Windows Media player. It never worked right.
Been using Yahoo's music service and it works as advertised. Click sync and your done...no playlists though & it costs money. Still, good audio quality and its easy.
Thanks inbox7
Thanks inbox7, I am using www.radiofeeds.co.uk for UK radio listening links.
Also one work around (can't believe I just said that Microshaft!) I am saving the .asx links as Favourites. works anyway.
Slightly off topic, has anyone reading this managed to stream an MP3 stream using there XDA and a WIFI connection?, What is the maximum bitrate you achieved? I'll start a thread on this unless you can point me to one.
cheers all choppidge.
Im trying the WMP10 sync now.... 20% complete.... keeping my fingers crossed that itll work without a snitch... thanks!
Im done syncing two playlists.. took a while to complete but when I checked my universal, couldnt see the playlists there... What did i do wrong?
I synced WM10 to save the Playlists to the storage device but couldnt find anything anywhere. My Playlist folder just shows Now Playing.. help! thanks!

Hey Folks,
I have a windows mobile touchscreen device (Omnia) and I am interested in getting my subscription Zune music to play on it. As most of you may know this music is DRM'd since I technically don't "own" the music and only get to play it as long as I pay my subscription fee.
Anyway, I found in an article that if I sync my Omnia via ActiveSync, it shows up in the "Sync" tab in Windows Media Player. From here I can drag albums over to my Omnia and they will play in Windows Mobile Media Player, s2p, etc.
Here is my problem: For some reason, a large portion of my Zune music has a little error next to it saying "No Sync Rights". There doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason as to what I can and cannot sync. I believe the Zune pass allows the music to be synced to up to 3 devices. I only have one zune, so there is no reason I can't sync with my Zune and my Omnia. One thing I did notice, if I sync to my phone, then I do a hard reset, the music I had synced now has "no sync rights". It's like WMP doesn't know that data was removed.
My question is:
* How does WMP and the Zune software know what songs are and arn't on my Zune?
* Is there anyway to prove/reset my sync count so I can sync more of my music properly?
* Any other Zune+WinMo users out there have any success stories to share?
Thanks a lot!

"3 devices" means 3 Zunes.
Microsoft doesn't support syncronization outside of Zunes.
However, some users have said that their Zune Pass music works on their phone. Idk how, I have the same "problem" as you. Microsoft needs to integrate stuff better though.
I guess I'll just post this, then do a double-post and tell you the problem, because the site isn't letting me post anything.
EDIT: I'm tired of windows media player half-assing all of my music, and stopping the syncing at 23% (I have a micro-sd card that's well big enough to hold what I'm putting on it, so space isn't the problem.) Can anyone recommend another program to sync my music with? (I don't want to do it manually, too much music to do it.)
I use iTunes (I know, right?) to manage my music on my pc. first I fix the id2 tags using mp3tag v2.6a from http://www.mp2tag.de (great program that will let you fix your tags and download album information from several sites on the internet and change the file names based on the tags and the tags based on the file names (use it and you'll see what i mean). then i add the music to iTunes that then finds all the album art automatically.
after that, i use a little program called iTunes agent from here http://ita.sourceforge.net/docs.html, to sync the music directly to a folder on the storage card (you can either take the storage card out and use a usb adaptor to connect it to your pc or you can set the phone to connect to the pc in disk mode, it doesn't work when connected for active sync)
the way it works, you create a playlist in iTunes and create a device in iTunes Agent with the same name as the play list, and add your music to that play list and itunes Agent will syncronize the play list to the folder you selected on your storage card when you setup the device. you can setup multiple devices too...
i hope this helps.
I just read an article about double Twist for music syncing.
I'm not comfortable with a program that connects to the internet and shares my information, but then again, that's just me.

I've had a look on google, and can't see anything that will let me pay my itunes podcasts streamed onto my phone. I have a bunch of podcasts that go to itunes on my pc, but my ipod is dying, It would be handy to be able to stream across the content, like I can with other files , anyone know of anything that lets me play itunes podcasts remotely?
The google search I did, shows a lot of software that doesn't seem to exist anymore.
Try doubleTwist. Its import all your iTunes library and organize it in your phone in a great way.
