You can burn the itunes files to a music cd (not data cd), then use that cd to import as mp3 using itunes or some other cd ripping program. If you use itunes make sure you go into importing settings to change the format to mp3 (by default it's set to aac). This would take a long time if you have a bunch of files, so there are other programs (not free though) you can buy that can convert for you. http://www.imtoo.com/video-to-audio-converter.html is one of them. Though this is possibly against the itunes download agreement since the files are supposed to be protected. I dunno though since you're using them for yourself and not sharing them.

You can do it but alias with iTunes... You have to out a tick in the box where it is written to put manually the songs

I just bought my first apple product and talked to the sales person about that very thing. From what I understand you can only use itunes downloads on apple product. However, if you can make CDs from your itune files you can turn around and load them on your computer and put them on an MP3. I have every CD I every bought on my computer and put them all on my MP3. However, I can not recommend buying this product because mine never worked right. I can't turn up the volume enough to hear it well through headphones or speakers. I have bought one of these brand new and they are a good product but this one is reconditioned and it must not have been done right. :/

A USB CONNECTOR. I transferred songs by buying them on iTunes and syncing the iTunes to my iPod. It would load my songs that way. You can ask Questions under help feature to walk you through

How ever you can drop and drag your music. I buy tunes from amazon then export them to windows where I can sync the Sandisk and drag the music I want to it.

There's a CD that you load that allows you to sync. You might be able to download the program off the internet.

This is one way but the more conventional (maybe) is to use iTunes which synchronizes with iPads and iPhones. You would use the old iPad (or iphone) or new Lightning to USB cable to your computer and copy your documents by placing them in my documents, my photos or my music folders. iTunes would sync these to your device. The one problem I have is that I have a protective case over my iPhone and the Lightning connector won't fit unless I take the protective case off. I have not found a Lightning-to-Lightning cable yet, there for I use iTunes. I also thought I could use the old iPhone to Lightning adapter on my iHome radio but it is too unstable so I use a cable.

You can't do it directly but, you can to a usb stick...then, to your ipod using itunes

All you need to do is create a Data CD full of MP3 music. Do not use Music CDs, just CD-R type discs.

I don't entirely understand the question, but I'll give you my scenario. I have an old computer that was built in 2002, it has a 40 Gb hard drive that is partitioned, and it runs USB 1.1. I also have a new Dell Vista machine where my main iTunes library is stored, that is at a different location so networking isn't an option. I wanted to back up my music, and I wanted to play it on the old machine, so I bought one of these drives for that. Now I don't have to use 16 (or so, I think the actual capacity is 15.something Gb) Gb of space on that tiny hard drive, I can use the USB drive for all my music. It opened up the space on the old hard drive so I don't have to duplicate the music files there. ITunes reads just fine from the flash drive over USB 1.1; it took some work to copy all the files into iTunes from the flash drive though and get it all set up. As long as the drive letter stays the same, iTunes can find the music any time that flash drive is plugged in and play directly from it. I hope this helps.

The X5 shows up as a storage device on the PC and acts as any storage device would. To sync, you need an application that will do that for you and none are provided by Fiio. That is the beauty of proprietary software like iTunes as it works wonderfully, until you try to use it with a non-Apple device where its beastly side appears. I haven't researched it, but there are probably other music programs like iTunes that will work with non-proprietary devices if you need the management functionality. But I find it easier to just drag the entire file on top of the old and chose not to replace identical files which simplifies adding new, but that is a one way method as it doesn't delete.

I have heard there might be some third party software that you can use, but I think the easiest and best way is to add your windows media player items to iTunes and then sync the iPod.

First, make sure you have iTunes on your computer. Open it up and insert your CD of music. iTunes should pop up a little window asking you if you want to import the songs. Once you tell it to go ahead, it will take the songs from the CD, convert them into the format the iPod uses and save to your computer. Then, you can hook up your iPod and sync your music to it. Hope this helps.

It is my understanding that you must convert the CD to an mp3 format. And then you have to get it into I Tunes. Do yourself a favor.....buy a Phillips mp3 player and then loading tunes from anywhere (and most formats.

Thanks for your advice. The flip side of the beauty of not being locked into iTunes sounds like I would have to purchase a whole new library though, if I was not able to transfer from iTunes. True? And how would I be able to transfer music off my CD's into a Sansa?

There may be other methods, but I just plug it into a USB port on my PC, open Windows Media Player, and use the sync menu to download my music.
