In the past I've used iSyncr to handle iTunes transfers over to my Galaxy S2.
Will this app still work with the Nexus?
If not, how are you guys getting your iTunes playlists/music onto the Galaxy Nexus?
I use iSyncr WiFi, works fine

My Sync is said to work well too. Though I have not personally tried this function on it. I use it for WiFi backup.

+1 on that Google Music is what made me pull the trigger on buying a 16gb nexus. I no longer need tons of space on a phone to hold all my music!
I just gave up on iTunes syncing. I hated Doubletwist, so now I just drag and drop. I also spend less time with my music library because of Spotify. Also, check out Salling Media Sync. Its available in the Mac App Store. Its expensive, but I've heard good things about it.

Same. Been using for months. Its awesome.
Can't use Google music in the OK. Very dissapointing!
i use subsonic on my linux server instead
Just to add my tuppence
Being a recent convert to the Android fold (brand new GN - still awaiting update ), and having used iTunes/iPhone for too long, I felt the need to find an app that would let me sync iTunes playlists.
I tried a shed-load of apps; doubletwist was pure crap (IMHO) and not worth the effort, WinAmp might "really whip the llama's ass" but didn't "really know how to sync a playlist" well enough to warrant me keeping it.
I then found iSyncr and the WiFi plugin and these did exactly what they said they would, seamlessly and effortlessly. The free version would only sync 30 tracks per playlist so the paltry price they were asking for it seemed worth it to me.
As for the Google Music point... not available to UK users yet but there is a very simple workaround, just waiting to set this up on my phone.
I second the Subsonic recommendation. It's been around for a while, use it on my phone, browser, wife's iphone.
It does what Google Music does, but you have more control and I believe it does video too. It definitely isn't as easy to setup and use as GM though, so a big caveat there.
iSyncR WiFi sync didn't work for me. I then used DoubleTwist Air Sync to sync. Worked well. The playlists are recognized by PowerAmp, so all is good (as I dislike the DoubleTwist player).
hey, i used iSyncR too, but a lot of songs in the playlists are missing (not only the bought ones) and some pictures are not at the right songs. that really sucks. you may have an alternetive for me? in germany google music is not available now;( besides you always need a good connection for streaming.
thx for answers
Hey guys,
So I know the GN is MTP only for now and that's the way google want it, but I was wondering if it might be possible in the future to make a mod that allows it to be mounted as a disk drive? A lot of computer applications (such as the ones that allow syncing music from iTunes, and many more) do not support MTP. In fact, most things don't. Even saving things from the web or extracting things, I have to copy them to my desktop first then to my phones storage. It seems only Windows has such support.
So, could this be possible in the future? And does anyone fancy having a go at it!?
Cheers
I personally use DLNA to transfer music from my collection on nas over wifi. Works well.

Is there anyway to manage your music on your galaxy Nexus using your PC? Could you use Windows media player or real player in any fashion?

Use the website, https://play.google.com/music/listen
I believe that they're in the works in making a windows application, not sure when that'll be done.
On another note, have they allowed a way for us to upload music from our phones to Google music yet? I don't have a PC and all my music is stored on my phone.

Nope. There isn't Google Music API either.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...on-allow-apps-to-integrate-with-google-music/ saw that the other month though.
Still waiting for a day that Google releases API, MMS, and emoji for Google Voice texting too -.-
Hi guys,
First time poster here. Great place to share the love of this fabulous phone.
I need some suggestions on a music player. I was using Winamp Pro on my GN as i also use this app as my music player on my laptop.
I need a music app to tied me over until Winamp is patched for JB
Any ideas?
Stock GN with 4.1.1
Thanks guys.
There are tons of threads about this if you do a search.
I use Google Music. It gives me access to all of my music on my laptop, GNex, and, starting in two days, my Nexus 7. This is great because only about 40% of my music is stored on this laptop, and the other 60% was lost when I reformatted the hard drive on my last laptop and moved to a phone without an SD slot. The Google Music app works great, and even though the widget is kind of crappy, I've found that all music players have crappy widgets.
try Cloud Skipper its a great alternative. Completely free, includes a built-in equalizer, and has a nice and simple widget
Is there a way to get Music Play (I have forgot what it is called) on to Paranoid Android as I don't like the style/function of Apollo unless there is some other good alternatives as the Winamp seems a bit hoggy.
As a side question since updated to PA I have been getting crashes on my computer using Winamp while syncing music to my phone.
Sorry if I posted in the wrong place but I cannot directly ask in the Paranoid Android thread,
If you're talking about play music, then you can download it from play store.
