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

nicely done..

great find

thanks

Thanks for the find

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?

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

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

...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.

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

I clicked on the link to download, and a tab comes up and says File not found.

I took 3 tries to get the correct palylist to transferred after that it has worked great. Sweet download

I tried to grab this gem but I am gettitng a 404 error?

lately my love for my baby (crackberry) keeps getting sweeter and stronger....Don't you just love your Crackberry.
Plus I just add my google reader on viigo...OMG!!!

We appreciate the share.

I tried to access the download but I think it has already been pulled back. Dorn!!!

I keep getting an 404 error. Did they remove it from their site already?

Guys
The link in the story is down, but Bla1ze was good enough to up it.

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?

it look like RIM took the Linc down.

Got it off RapidShare...thanks!

http://www.eonlinenow.com/20080623/blackberry-media-sync-available/ has download available.

Too Late.

Looks as though the page is not accessible- page cannot be found message.

Thanks very much Bla1ze!!! Good Lookin' Out!!

Is this link still active? Anyone managed to download?

Thanks for the re-up!!

I was a bit slow on the uptake this morning...the link is dead :-(

Thanks much for uploading to a universal server so we can have despite the BB link being dead. Kudos!!!

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

this program is gonna Completely change how use my bb! but the link that is posted just leads to a blank page maybe the program has been taken off?

Link no longer works

Link is dead, but it is on RapidShare. Look up this post for Bla1ze's link to it. Thanks!

I downloaded from the RapidShare site and the program is incomplete. It will not allow me to check off which playlists I want it to copy. I ran the update as well. What seems to be missing is the rectangular bar above the playlist area that has the Select Playlists check box in it. My doesn't show that box.

I'll wait for about 30 minutes and download it again.. as it says I have exceeded my free downloads for the time being. This would be nice if it worked.. .I have a feeling this is not ready for prime time by any means.

Will this allow music that I have purchased from iTunes to play or just music downloaded from CD's without protection? If it doesn't get the protected music, not sure what the gain would be.

Still no love for us Mac users huh?

When I downloaded again from the RapidShare site I got the first version which showed the Select Playlists check box. When I did the update the Select Playlists check box went away. I have a feeling the update is a ruse and kills the program.
So far this is totally useless!! RIM has a long way to go before this is ready for the general public.

Its here...try the link mentioned in the update to the post..not the original one...

http://www.eonlinenow.com/20080623/blackberry-media-sync-available/

i downloaded no problem...but it won't recognize my BB. it keeps saying connect a BB, even though mine is already connected and shows my PIN up top.

any suggestions?

I downloaded it, no how do I initialize it LOL

Ive got to say that this works amazingly well. Although when it gave me the option to update, I didn't. I figured that it may be a trap... lol

Darn the luck...I can't get the thing to download on my 8330 or on my PC. I get an error message saying unable to find page. :(

This is awesome. Its working great on my 8320 running 4.5.0.44.

Works without error with my Curve (8300) with 4.2.2.89. If anybody needs help I will tell you how i got it to work. Just let me know

personally i'll wait until it's official

Worked great the first time.

I downloaded this last night and tried to install it this morning with no luck...until I realized that I hadn't clicked on the setup icon. Once I figured out this minor detail, I opted not to do the update (as several have noted here) and it works just fine. I already had my music on my 8830, so I am only using this for podcasts right now.

One warning, once you sync new files and disconnect, it takes a few minutes for the music to pop up on your phone.

This would be so much cooler if it didn't try to overwrite songs that are on my curve every time (just add one song, copies the whole list again... takes forever)

this software apparently does not work with the 4.5 software on the 8310. any fixes for this yet ?

This is fast and easy to use. Got all my music onto my blackberry with no trouble at all!! great find and thanks for the universal link.

It will not sync the songs that were purchased via itunes..if anyone knows how to get around this please let me know....thanks

Does anyone know how to get the files converted so my BB 8820 will play the songs

please assist...

Any workaround for not recognizing the itunes? I have re-installed the file without updating it, so now I have the select playlist button working but is says to reinstall the itunes. I even update my itnues to the latest version with no success...

I downloaded this program and it works great Thanks.

I want a mac verison

Here is the official Blackberry download page for Media Sync, Mac & PC. Mac is a "Preview" version.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/media/mediasync.jsp#tab_tab_downlo...

Mac version-

- Downloaded, installed, performed the required a reboot of the system. Running the app, it found a test playlist in iTunes, it found the Blackberry Curve, and it even Synced. When I looked on the Blackberry, no music was present. It was just smoke n mirrors.

I guess the label "Preview", which is not otherwise defined on their site, must be defined as, "We at Blackberry will Allow Users to Preview what it is like to install and use our software, but it will not actually do anything that it is advertised to do. Nor will we provide any obvious means of support, nor did we provide guidance in advance of the installation that this is a waste of time. We hope you have enjoyed your experience, seeing as how Blackberry loves U2 so much that it will not play U2's music unless you manually drag and drop the files onto your Blackberry storage disk, obviating the need for a Sync App to begin with."

This must be some form of Canadian marketing and communications that we unenlightened Americans simply "dont get" because we live too far south in a country full of violent gun toting thugs.. oops that was my outside voice.

PC Version- Not unlike the Mac version, it also does not work. A major distinction is that the site claims this is a fully functional software application, a "gold" release version.

On Vista64, which the site claims to support, the iTunes feature is very broken. I can either choose to sync my entire library of 5000+ titles, or the 90's built-in playlist, or none. My custom playlists are greyed out, along with other built -in default lists.

Workaround- Windows Media Player can be selected in Options. However, if you took time to build playlists in Itunes.. you will be peeved.. since you will now need to rebuild them from scratch in Windoze Media Player.

Having been forced to use the media player on Windoze.. I actually find it runs more smoothly, using less system resources than the itunes TSR apps that live in memory on the off chance you run itunes at some point.

Yet, I am still forced to use iTunes since my AirPort Express Network only streams from iTunes to my stereos.

Rating of the software: "D" for Vista.. since it doesnt sync to iTunes on a practical level, "F" for Mac, since it does not do anything at all to Sync your media.

These companies have been hyping for years all the fun things you can do with these expensive toys. At the end of the day, owing to their territorial marketing schemes/scams, the user is left with a only a partially functional device that simply does not live up to the hype.

They should rename this app.. "Time Sink".

Well I have tried this a number of times and I have started up the Desktop Manager and I then go into Media and then click on Blackberry Media Sync and it then comes up with
Media sync has stopped working.

To be honest I just don't think that the Blackberry is very good anyway and was really disappointed with the look of the interface. The fact that the batter is shite, the fact that it can not use any spam filters or have any personalized mailbox folders as you would have in Outlook. It is the first and last Blackberry for me I am afraid. Next up the Iphone, far superior.
