iTunes v 10 - DoubleTwist 3.0.0 -
OS is Win 7
DroidX
From the descriptions, I never expected synching music and podcasts from iTunes to the Droid to be as difficult and time consuming as it apparently is.
When I first downloaded DT (and after considerable poking around, more or less blindly) I was able to get an initial couple of music CDs and a few podcasts onto the Droid. After adding two more CDs and four individual podcasts purchased from the iTunes store, I can't get anything to synch, and it looks like four podcasts I purchased from the iTunes store have vanished from both iTunes and DT. [The Droid has over 13 GB of available memory, so that's not the problem.]
Procedure followed: Open DoubleTwist - connect Droid - and then I'm stuck. My Droid is apparently recognized by DT as "billhansen2008", my gmail address. But there is no synch button in the lower right hand corner of DT - drag and drop doesn't work - and the video "tutorials" I've found are nothing more than ads for DT, stating that it can do this, do that, etc, but without any instructions on how to synch. Most of the video tutorials don't even look like the options available in my copy of DT.
This has been a frustrating mess. Can anyone direct me toward any solution at all - or should I just accept the fact that the Droid won't always accept things from iTunes?
Last question -if DT isn't going to work, is there any other way to get music or podcasts into the Droid?
