BlackBerry MediaSync (for syncing iTunes to BB) Unofficially Available from RIM Servers!

BlackBerry MediaSync

** Updated: As predicted, RIM pulled the file from their servers. But you can still get the file HERE. **

A BIG shout out goes to Nanu for discovering this one... it seems the new standalone BlackBerry MediaSync application is unofficially available on RIM's servers for download. Get it while it's HOT (and at your own risk of course!)...odds are if you don't have to click through a bunch of RIM legalese to get to the file it will be pulled quick.

BlackBerry MediaSync allows you to sync your iTunes to your BlackBerry Smartphone. Just download, install and sync - all your music (including album artwork) will be transferred and handled properly by your BlackBerry. Nanu reported syncing 260 songs in 10 minutes. If you give it a try be sure to report back in the comments with your findings!

Too Bad I keep all my iTunes music on my Mac. :(

Me too. It's for syncing with iTunes, a Mac program and there is no mac version. :(

Come on RIM! Show us Mac users some love.

Down with PocketMac!!!

Up with something better! Lol...

haha!! Same here, what a bummer :(

I run Windows on a Virtual Machine using VMWare Fusion for the sole purpose of managing my Berry... (no debate needed, I do not like dealing with PocketMac and the likes when the PC is fully supported WITHOUT THE HEADACHE!)

Anyhow, I was going to try and see if my VM would be able to recognize my iTunes library on my Mac... and be able to sync! Without having to use iTunes on Windows.

Since I only use the Windows build for my Berry, that would be amazing... when I have a chance to try it I will let you know how it goes!

I use SyncTunes on my iMac and Macbook Pro to sync music with my 8330. Great app and it's free.

can anyone get it to sync the music they bought off of the itunes store? I thought this tool would do it, but apparently the itunes drm still will not allow the blackberry to play the copy protected music

Was there an answer to this? I can't figure it out either, I can only load non-purchased music and it is a pain in the neck. If anyone can help me my email is mcook@golfjmmc.com.

a good program for mac users is called itunemywalkman, i use it all the time

 
 
Posted by serpico Monday, Jun 23, 2008 1327 days ago

This program works very well with my 8330 on my mac.

Thanks for the post. I can't use the options button and also can't get it to sync. I did update the version after the installation. Any tips for getting it to work?

 
 
Posted by mscooley Sunday, Jun 22, 2008 1328 days ago

I did the update as well, and mine is working just fine. I'm just about done syncing 141 songs; it's been going for 25 minutes or so. No too bad. Keep in mind that the same time that I was syncing, I was manually moving the scattered audio files I had on my BB to my PC, so that could have affected the transfer rate.

Sweet it works I can play all my itunes music on my BB

 
 
Posted by Tooking_mcknn Sunday, Jun 22, 2008 1328 days ago

Only problem will be backing up all my music in an organized manner.

Does it take up a lot of memory? can you pick n choose certain songs? i have like over 2000 songs on there and i dont want em all to go..

 
 
Posted by Sunday, Jun 22, 2008 1328 days ago

i know some of us mac users are overly loyal pricks but some of us like myself want a phone that not just a really shiny brick but if my blackberry cant sync to my mac alot easier i might have to ......(i cant believe im saying this)......get a iphone.

By the way i would never get rid of my BB but it would be nice to get it to sync better. anybody got any suggestions.

 
 
Posted by mscooley Sunday, Jun 22, 2008 1328 days ago

...from what i can tell, you can only sync playlists. if you click on a playlist, it tells you what songs are in that list. nevertheless, i'll come back and add my .02 ...syncing my second batch. 283 songs total, 42 minutes and I have 50 to go.

 
 
Posted by mzonin Monday, Jun 23, 2008 1328 days ago

wooow ....works so easily...no problems installing or putting music on my bb...

The posted link is invalid. Upon clicking, I get a "404 File not found" error. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there another link anyone is aware of?

Is there anyway to install this on WIndows Home Edition SP3? It's telling me that I have an unsupported OS.
