Want to learn how to sync music from iTunes to Android? We have 4 different methods to introduce to you! All of which will be different but effective in their own ways. This will include a convenient mobile version and a couple of desktop solutions that you can use if you want something a bit more stable and straightforward.

Part 1. Sync Music from iTunes to Android with Sync iTunes to Android App

The first method that we’re going to be introducing is a bit unconventional, but it does work! By unconventional, we mean that we’re going to be syncing music from iTunes to Android with a mobile app. Specifically, the Sync iTunes to Android App — aptly named, as most apps are. Of course, that doesn’t mean that all the work will be solely on your device. You’ll have to download two programs separately to establish a connection between your Android and your PC with iTunes installed on it! Continue reading to see what we mean by that...

Steps to Sync iTunes to Android with Sync iTunes to Android App

Step 1 — Install

First, you’ll need to download and install Sync iTunes to Android. It’s a FREE app, but it does contain ads — which you might run into as you work.

Then, type the provided IP address on the desktop version of SyncTunes (as demonstrated in the sample below.) Press Connect in order to proceed to the next step.

Note: Port should have automatically been filled. If not, you’ll have to make sure to match it up to the one provided on your device as well.

Finally, you’ll need to select the playlists you want to transfer (be it the entire “Library” or specific playlists on your iTunes library.) When you’re ready, click the Start Sync option to begin transferring files.

Note: Although SyncTunes claims to be FREE, there is a limit as to how much you can use it before you’ll need to download the premium version (specifically 100 file transfers.)

Part 3. Sync Music from iTunes to Android with DoubleTwist

For our third program, we’re going to feature the DoubleTwist transfer software. It’s not something that can be called a premium product, and that shows in the presentation and lack of stability in certain occasions. However, it does work. It’s just not something that we can consciously recommend to those who want a trouble-free experience. Still, we’re going to be showing you how you can use it with the available almost-”sync” options that it provides.

Steps to Sync Music from iTunes to Android with DoubleTwist

Step 1 — Music

Of course, we’ll be using DoubleTwist to sync Music, so we’re going to have to be on the Music tab (as is shown in the image below.)

You can do this on Mac by right-clicking on the desktop and selecting the New Folder option on the drop-down menu that appears. For our sample, we’ve decided to name our folder “iTunes Music.” However, you can call it whatever you want.

  Sync Music from iTunes to Android  - Go to music tab

Step 2 — Sync Now

What should happen, is that the available media on your iTunes library be replicated on the right-hand corner of the screen. However, with the recent iTunes update, this feature is not working as it should. That is why, even if it says that “no music was found,” you will need to… Select the Sync Now option in order to begin syncing.

Step 3 — Finalizing Sync

Despite the lack of available scanned data, DoubleTwist should still be able to import Music from iTunes to your Android device. You’ll know if the right-hand side of the screen looks like the one shown in the image below.

Part 4. Sync Music from iTunes to Android with Droid Transfer & Transfer Companion

For our last program recommendation, we have the Transfer Companion which is very similar to the first program that we introduced. At least in that, you’ll need to download and install both the mobile application and PC software in order to be able to use it properly. Unlike the first program, however, the transfer is completed via a USB connection (whereas the first app could be through Wi-Fi sync.)

Steps to Sync Music from iTunes to Android with Droid Transfer & Transfer Companion

Step 1 — Download & Install

First, you will need to download the Transfer Companion app on both your device and your Windows PC.

  Sync Music from iTunes to Android  -Download & Install

Step 2 — Allow Access

Next, give Transfer Companion permission to access the media on your device. As mentioned, you’ll need to have your device connected to your PC via USB connection for this. Select Allow in order to proceed to the next step.

  Sync Music from iTunes to Android  -  Allow Access

Step 3 — Music

This time, on your Windows PC, you’ll need to select the Music tab from the left-hand sidebar.

Step 4 — Add Music (Add Folder/Add Files)

On the “Music” tab, the playlists and albums on your iTunes library should be available.

To sync files, you will need to select Add Music then either “Add Folder” or “Add Files.”
