How do I download songs to my MP3 player?

I purchased an MP3 player for my son and wanted to surprise him with his favorite songs downloaded from iTunes. The MP3 player is a Phillips Model # HDD082/17. It says it can be used for Windows Media Player and comes with software for this, but I am wondering if I cannot use iTunes for downloads. I don't know how to do this, though. I have purchased the songs and have them in my library, but I don't know how to get them into the MP3 player. Any suggestions? Thanks

It really depends on whether iTunes works with your MP3 player. Some players come with 'plug-ins' that add to iTunes. It's most likely that this won't be the case resulting in the following options:
a) Try using the MP3 software that comes with the player - if it works with Mac. Under this circumstance you'd only use iTunes as a means of buying the songs and ripping to Audio CD.
b) There's also lots of Mac software available for managing MP3s outside of iTunes. Have a look at versiontracker.
For example, you may find that Thrupp suits your needs:

c) Really a last resort: Drag and drop the MP3s from your iTunes library into the MP3 player. Most MP3 players will appear as a hard disk on your desktop. Provided that you comply with the way the player expects the music to be filed this should work.

    You made a mistake already.  If you want MP3s, it is better to avoid the iTunes Store altogether, and buy songs in MP3 format (e.g. from Amazon Digital Music or other source).
    But all is not lost.  First check whether your MP3 player can play songs in AAC format.  If yes, continue to next step.  If not, convert your Purchased AAC files to MP3 per this guide:

    Once you have them in the right format, add them to the MP3 player.  iTunes is not capable of automatically syncing a non-Apple device.  However, for most players you can connect via USB, highlight the tracks you want from iTunes, and drag them into the player.

  • How can I download songs i made with my ipod on my pc ?

    How can I download songs i made with my ipod on my pc, i tried to share them with iTunes but it never worked i don't know where the file goes and iTunes doesn't seem to have the file...

    Many thanks Illaass for your help. Everyhing was perfect till I selected "iMovie" in the list of Apps on the left and NOTHING (no file) appeared in the box on the right.
    I can watch the whole movie in my iPod (from inside the application) perfectly, and in fact is the only file I made with that app.
    I already have it in my "Camera Roll", too. And I can watch it perfectly from there, too. 
    Another thing that perhaps you must know is that I tried to "export" it from the app, and a pop up said "Unable to Export - This project contains video clips which have been deleted from your photo library."
    Pleeease help me! I need to get that video out of my iPod!

    itunes will only sync with an ios device.
    On the other hand, if you have a usb cord for your mp3 player, and you know what FOLDER your itunes music is located in (and for me its located at C:\Users\YOUR NAME HERE\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media  )
    you can just select that folder and copy it to your mp3 player.
    typically when you first plug in something like an mp3 player you get a windows alert asking if you want to view the contents of the device- say yes. copy your itunes folder to the music folder on your mp3 player.

    How can I download songs from Glee and American Idol?

    You can search for those on the iTunes store from your computer.
    If the iTunes store sells them, then you can purchase them and sync them to your iPod.
    Open itunes on your computer.  Go to the iTunes store.  Search for whatever you like.  If you find it, then you can purchase it.
    Then sync it to your iPod.
