NOn ipod MP3 player with windows

How do I get my iTunes downloads to my non-ipod MP3 player. I tried setting the download to the player drive but that doesn't work. Since files are downloaded with an .m4p extension I can't use that file. I'm sure the files are set up so they can't be copied but I should be able to download directly to the mp3 player.

The purchased downloads are in protected AAC format, that is ALL the store sells. The downloads can't be directly changed to mp3. In order to change to mp3, you will have to burn your purchase to an audio CD, use the audio CD to re-import into iTunes as mp3. Welcome to discussions!

Using a non-iPod MP3 player with iTunes??

i have some other brand MP3 player (not iPod). how do i make it show up in my iTunes so i can drag and drop songs into this MP3 player? or can i not? it just shows up like a hard drive on my desktop now.thanks.

Sorry, but you probably can't. Other than an iPod, iTunes has only ever supported a handful of other players, and I believe all of them have been discontinued. So unless your player's manufacturer offers an iTunes plugin, you'll probably have to use your player's software (or whatever method it uses to load tracks).

Non-ipod mp3 player for Mac?

Hey everyone,
I was just seeing if any of you guys had suggestions about getting a mp3 player for my Mac. I'm looking to get one about 4GB or so, and was wondering what ones are compliant for Mac?
Thanks in advance!

The iPod nano comes to mind. I doubt many if any others will mount unless they just mount as a USB 2.0 drive and you can drag files to them independent of a program to do that. Read the O/S required specs before you buy, but I bet they are all around the same price point, the nano works with mac/iTunes, why bother?

ITunes + Non-Apple MP3 player?

Is there any way to sync a non-apple MP3 player with iTunes?

I use a freeware app called SyncTunes with my Walkman mobile phone. The app works with any MP3 player that mounts as a USB drive - and works extremely well at that, IMO.
Which makes me believe that Apple should work on opening up iTunes to non-iPod USB-based MP3 players. More and more devices - from SanDisk, from mobile phone manufacturers, and now in portable GPS units like the Garmin Nuvi 360 - incorporate this capability. (Personally, this means the iPod's days are numbered...)

I have copied my CDs into iTunes (currently running v11) to play on my iPod. I have now bought a non Apple mp3 player to use when I am out running. How can I copy the many tracks I want from iTunes onto the new player?

Thanks

I tried Notpod but can't get it to work. Part of the problem, I suspect, is that I can't create a folder on my player (a SanDisk Clip+). I also can't do this in Windows Explorer. Whilst I can see the Clip+ in Explorer, the option to create a new folder isn't there.
The error mesag I get in Notpod is:
"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit the application will close immediately.
InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'SelctedIndex'. Parameter name: SelectedIndex"
Then, when I plug the Clip+ into a USB port, iTunes thinks it is my iPad - which is because, I guess, Notpod hasn't worked.
I can drag and drop files from the Music folder where my iTunes tracks are stored onto the Clip+ and they get converted but I'd rather synchronise a Playlist from iTunes if I can.
Thanks anyone who can help

ITunes does not recognize my (non-iPod) music player

I am trying to use a Creative mp3 player with iTunes. The device is connected via USB and shows up in Windows Explorer but is not shown as a Device in iTunes.
I have installed the latest version of iTunes (7.3.2.6).
Any suggestions?

Yes - I tried both of them - they are cheap shuffle wanna bees (perfect as they will be lost within a month) - they both have 5 sample tunes on them that I can play in media player - I would like to have the itunes available (as they are already paid for) for the kids to download as they like (there is some common music) How? and where should I send this music so I can sync the music to these 2 shuffles (which product would you advise) ? I appreciate your help - these kids deserve it!

Mp3 player with built in speaker

HI,
I am looking for a basic mp3 player with a built in speaker under $100.
I just want to listen to podcasts that I download on my macbook and then
transfer to an mp3 player. I don't need video or lot of bells and whistles - but a built-in-speaker is crucial as well as being able to marry with a mac.
Simple drag and drop would be ideal.
Thanks a lot for any suggestions.

MP3 players come in a range of options and prices. iPods are probably the best, but are also among the pricier. You can see a bunch of options here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Audio/iPod-MP3-Players/abcat0201000.c?id=abcat020100 0&searchterm=mp3%20player&searchresults=1
Since this is an iTunes Forum, please be aware that the automatic sync option for iTunes only applies to iPods, and does not work with other players. You can however use your MP3 tracks both in iTunes and in your portable player.

Mp3 player with movie

can I sync my mp3 player with itunes and download movies with no problems.

Assuming your MP3 player is an iPod with video capabilities, then yes, it is quite possible to sync with iTunes and download movies. That's exactly what iTunes is designed to do, and I do it frequently.
However, I doubt if anybody here would know, better than you, if you can do it with no problems. Have you tried?

Is Creative going to make a mp3 player with the 24-bit Crystaliz

I have dropped my Zen Touch 20 GB a few times (I know, I'm clumsy), and the most recent drop really damaged it. It still plays, but I can only scroll down with the touch pad (scrolling up goes down as well), and rarely the song skips forward randomly (progress bar does not skip forward though, this has happened ever since I got much Touch, but it happens slightly more frequently now).
I've tried pushing in on the touch pad as some have suggested, and resetting the Zen Touch did not help.
I was considering investing in a Zen Sleek Photo, but I think I will stick my Touch since I mostly use Shuffle play anyways.
However, has Creative announced any plans to create a mp3 that uses the 24-bit Crystalizer from the X-Fi soundcard series? I have a X-Fi Fatlty edition, and the sound is absolutely amazing, it blows standard CD and mp3 players away. If Creative made a mp3 player with the Crystalizer, I would buy it no questions asked, death to the iPod!
... That's IF Creative makes one, so does anyone happen to know? It may not even be technically possible, but heck if I know

Yes, it is technically possible and Creative will incorporate the X-Fi technology in its future MP3 players.
This was confirmed by Creative CEO, Mr Sim Wong Hoo when Creative announced its quarterly earnings about a month ago.
At that time, Mr Sim also said that the earliest we can see the X-Fi technology on Creative's MP3 players might be early next year.
But as Creative will be releasing a yet-to-be-announced product in Paris tommorrow (8 dec), i'm not sure if we will get to see it earlier than expected!
Just keeping my fingers crossed, but what ever new product Creative release tmr, it will definately make my xmas more merry!

Using the mp3 player with various comput

Hello,
I was wondering if I can use the mp3 player with more than one computer, that's to say, not only with the first one. I'm in the USA now but I li've in Italy, so if I buy it here and use it here to download songs, then will I be able to use it in Italy too? Meaning, will I be able to use it with another computer and download others song on it's
And another question, concerning the battery, what happens when it dies? Because on the mp3 player homepage I read something about replacing it but I would like to know more about it. The battery is a big concern because I'm choosing between Ipod and this one, and on the discussion forums of Ipod, it wasn't very reassuring. While I had heard that Creative's battery is good.
Thank you very much. Please answer soon.

Lithium Ion batteries last on average 3 years at peak performance from date of manufacture. More here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net.

HT1460 Where can I find a dockable MP3 player with no games on it?

I understand factory pre-loaded games can't be removed from an iPod. Apparently they serve some vital purpose. Who sells a dockable MP3 player with no games on it? I would gladly trade in one or more of my iPods for something like that.

fabulous, thankyou. The flashplayer is great. P7 thing looks
brilliant
too - good to know it's there if I ever need it. Thanks
again.

Will my ipod classic work with windows 8

I am finally updating my Windows XP desktop to a Windows 8 laptop. Will my ipod classic work with Windows 8? I've seen a ton of problems from other users with regard to compatibility.

Do yourself a big favor. Switch to Windows 7. (Or buy a Mac.)

Will Ipod Touch work with Windows 8

Will IPod Touch work with Windows 8? Why is that not even a listed option in the help feature?

Apple has just not got around to revising the documentation to reflect Win 8. Just use instructions for Win 7
