[Q] Nexus 7 and ipod - Asus Transformer TF700

Since my laptop died I've been using my nexus 7 exclusively, things have been okay but I'm stuck with my iPod I want to add new music and remove some of the old stuff, is there any way to manage my ipod using my nexus 7 without having to store my music library on my nexus as there's too much in terms of file size to do so? Any help would be great as if I can sort this my nexus 7 will have done away with my laptop.

There is no iTunes variant for Android of any sort (I've looked for it for quite a while.). As such there is no way to manage your ipod via your Android device.
Also, this is the TF700 board, not the Nexus 7 one.

Okay thanks for clearing it up, and sorry for the post on the wrong board. Shame it can't be managed with something like winamp

I still use itunes to manage my music but I also use doubletwist to sync that itunes library and playlists with my android devices. You basically import the itunes library into doubletwist and then it is able to sync with android. I use it for my android phone and tablets flawlessly.

I don't have any Apple products or use iTunes myself but I highly doubt that you'll be able to perform a direct sync between your TF and your iPod (if that's what you're hoping to achieve) due to Apple's stance on copyrighted material. For example they deliberately disable file sharing on their iDevices via Bluetooth in a bid to combat piracy (e.g. music). Thus I would imagine there's a similar block of sorts in place with iTunes in terms of not being able to transfer stuff directly from iTunes onto a non-Apple product. Unless someone else can post a workaround of some description you might have to take a long-winded route to transfer the same stuff that's on your iPod/iTunes onto your TF.
If however you're asking about software that performs a similar function to iTunes but which is built for the TF, you could try downloading the Asus software from their website and see what it can do. I've never really used it before so I'm not entirely sure what it offers.
The only other thing I can suggest is to simply plug your TF into your computer, which should be detected as a mass storage device as long as you have the correct drivers installed. You can then simply click-and-drag your music from your chosen folder onto the TF's internal memory.
Hope this helps.
[EDIT]: Oh, 100th post .
the ipod music format will not play on the TF. If it is not copy protected (DRM) you can export to cd then load on tf. Now you see why they are so disliked. You bought the song and tbey still want to tell you what you can listen to it on.
I use iSyncr
It's specifically for getting your iTunes stuff, including smart playlists etc. onto an android device, it's two way as well. Works great and is well supported with regular updates.
Can't recall how much it was, but I've not regretted the purchase.
It's not exactly syncing with your iPod but only one step removed.
Cheers.

Does it work with the iTunes videos as well?
Thanks
Thanks jonitfcfan and Rumbleweed for ur reply. all I want to do is transfer music from TF to my iPod. I do not need the other way around. so I dont think the question of file format comes
@movingpixels: so can the iSyncr do this job? Just want to confirm before I purchase it. Thanks
Use doubletwist... I think it is free

None of this is true. The iPod music formats are mp3/AAC, both of which play fine on the TF. Even iTunes music store purchases have been DRM-free for years now. You can drag your music onto the TF (or SD or MicroSD). You can also sync your iTunes library to Google Music or Amazon and access them through those sites (or through their associated apps).

MP3 ? I thought that iTunes converted whatever audio you imported into M4A/AAC format before sending it to your iDevice?

I learned long ago never argue with an expert. Try it yourself then decide.

Airplay/Mirror to Apple tv with files from computer through Android Device

hope the title can describe what i am trying to figure out....
My current setup is this:
1. My windows machine and mac both have plex installed.
2. I can use my iphone with the plex app to airplay media from my computer straight to my apple tv, i dont need to have anything synced directly to my iphone's internal storage. It just uses the stream from the iPhone and computer
I am getting rid of my iPhone to get an android phone, but i want to keep this capability...
any suggestions?

anything based on ITunes or apple software is a pita to make work on android.
hi, just buy a cheap ipod touch 4g and use that it has the same capabilities and you will then be able to buy a high end android phone without any drawbacks
If you want to stream from android to apple tv there is an app that does so. Check http://9to5mac.com/2011/05/09/android-can-now-airplay-to-ios-devices/ for review.

[Q] Play ITunes on Adroid

I have been reviewing many of the posts here and could not find any solutions to my problem. I am having trouble getting my iTunes over to my Note 10.1. Long story short, I got a iTune gift card some months ago as a gift thinking that I was going to get the new iPad 3. However, I ended up getting the Android instead. Now I want to use that iTunes gift card to get a book for my Android.
I saw some post about how one might can do this but there was really no real details instructions as to how I can make it work which is why I am posting this.
Here's where I am so far:
1. I have iTunes on my Windows 7 pc.
2. I have DoubleTwist on my Windows pc
3. I have DoubleTwist on my Note 10.1
4. I have downloaded a book already from iTunes onto my Windows 7.
5. I opened DoubleTwist on my Windows 7 to view the download but it doesn't show up.
Per #5, I cannot seem to get DoubleTwist to see the iTunes book I downloaded.
I also don't know how to get the book to my Note 10.1.
I know pc enough but seriously I am clueless when it comes to the tablet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I Think it is And news for You. Apple has a proprietary DRM protection on books that has not been circumvented (as for as I know) That makes reading it on anything Other than an apple product , a- no - go. If it Was music you can simply copy It to a directory on the mate and. away you go but a book is different.
personally I never buy booksfrom Apple If you buy from Kobo or Kindle or.B&N they all have good readers or A ldiko & Bluefire Can read epub book with adobe DRM. BN and Kindle are also both proprietary , but have both been circumvented.

[Q] REMOTE CONTROL APP for Galaxy Note 10.1?

Hi,
I'm new to the forums, so bear with me if I'm not following any rules in particular.
I've had my Windows 8 Phone for a while now (Nokia Lumia 920) and I like it. I got a Galaxy Note 10.1 recently (not the 2014 edition) and like it a lot as well. I teach dance classes, and play my music from my tablet. The thing is, I have to explain dance moves etc. in the class every so often, and have to start and stop the music every few minutes. The tablet has to be connected to the sound input for the overhead speakers in the room, which is in the corner of the room. I have to stand in the middle of the room to explain all these things. Walking back and forth just isn't working out, because I have to start/stop the music several times in an hour.
I was hoping to the able to control the music on my Galaxy Note 10.1 using my Lumia 920. Is that even possible? I'm really hoping there is a way to do this. All I would need is to be able to play and pause the music, and pick songs if possible.
If there isn't a way to control music on the note 10.1 using my Lumia, is there any kind of other way to control music/other content on my note 10.1?
Thanks guys.
Try Vectir...
Infrared (IR) is out of the question as the Note 10.1 can only transmit, not receive.
There might be some bluetooth app with which you can control it but the range is limited to about 10 metres.
Another, and the best bet, might be using wifi remote control.
Check out Vectir Wifi Remote Control.
Connect your two device to the same lan or you can set up an ad-hoc wifi connection.
Install the app in windows phone play around to get it working.
I don't own a windows phone so i can't tell you the exact steps.
All the best!!
Sorry...it is only for controlling Windows PC/Laptops
Maybe try Teamviewer.
Use splashtop!

What he wants is this.
Note 10.1 running android 4.1.2 is the server.
Nokia Lumia running windows 7 or 8 is the client.
So I don't think Splashtop or Teamviewer will work.
So far my findings are all remote controls are either to control Note 10.1 from desktop or control the desktop from Note 10.1 only using wifi.
There is a team viewer host edition for android, so TV is indeed a possible solution. The navigation is still a bit wonky from using another phone as the client, but for simple button toggling it should work just fine.

Search before asking. Someone has likely already asked.
Spell your words completely, and use punctuation. It confuses people when you use "u" and "ur" and "dat", or when you wrongly use "there/their/they're/your/you're".
Be nice. Don't be rude, just move on to another post without leaving a comment. We are not 7 years old.
