iPhone 5 user. Just got my Nexus 4 a little while ago from ups, I was wondering how can i transfer my songs over from itunes to my Nexus 4
On mac there is a google music manager app. I downloaded it and it will upload my entire iTunes collection to my free-for-anyone-with-gmail Google Music collection. Then you can stream it through any device including web browser or sync it to an Android device. Forgot what it is for Windows but I am sure it is not much different. Go to music.google.com to get started.
My music all are imported, And there all over my macbook pro not in a specific section which would be whole lot easier. But the hood music manager is doing everything for meDepends also if the music was downloaded using iTunes or imported, if imported just copy it to the phone in mass storage mode, if it's DRM protected iTunes stuff it may be easier to burn it to CD as a regular audio CD and then rip it back as MP3. There are programs out there to hack the DRM but obviously I wouldn't sanction this.....
i think im going to go the google android file transfer route google music is taking forever!.. Thank you for your help appreciate itYou have two choices...
1.) Download Google Music Manager Prefs pane and upload your music to the cloud (takes forever if you have a lot of songs). You will than have access to all your tunes (AIFF's are unsupported) via streaming and can toggle from the phone what tracks are kept on your phone for offline use.
2.) Download Google Android File Transfer, connect your phone via USB, Create a folder called "Music" on your phone, and simply select the tunes you want to transfer in iTunes and drag them to the Music folder on your phone to copy.

iTunes has not used DRM for many years. It's gone, has been gone, and is not coming back for music. If anyone has downloaded music from iTunes any time in the past 3 years it is 100% DRM free and will play on any music player that can play ACC files; or just convert them to mp3s. If you have DRMed music from iTunes you can even download new DRM free files.
Awesome I didn't know that! Shows how long it's been since I purchased off the iTunes Store lol
