Sync Your Palm Pre with iTunes. Again
Posted in: Apple, itunes, Media Players, pre, Today's Chili
Whether you agree that Apple was justified in kicking Palm’s Pre out of its iTunes party doesn’t matter. Whether the Pre was in the kitchen chugging back tequila shots, or whether it was engaging in polite conversation with the host’s wife in the drawing room, the result is the same. It was a huge pain for Pre users.
Now, though, there is a third party workaround. Actually, there are a few, including DVD Jon’s DoubleTwist. But Salling’s Media Sync is a simple application which eschews the social aspects of DoubleTwist and just sends music, podcasts and photos to almost any USB connected device, including the Pre.
Media Sync sends photos from iPhone or Aperture and music and podcasts from iTunes. It also replicates the whole structure of playlists and the playcounts of individual songs. The only thing it won’t do is copy over DRM’d music, but if you ever bought copy protected music from iTunes that’s your own fault.
Media Sync, like DoubleTwist, is free and available for both OS X and Windows. There is also an upgrade fee so you can enjoy “faster syncing”.
