There is an app called SyncTunes Mac which enables you to transfer your media from iTunes to an android device (like the Slate) for use on the Slate. While it's not the iTunes app you can still get access to your media. Hope this helps

Generally speaking it should be. I don't own a mac but as long as your Mac can identify a external hard drive or flash based memory sticks then it should see this. It will act like a external hard drive. So moving files to it is a simple drag and drop. Unlike a Ipod which requires using Itunes to move files to a device. Just plug it in and look at your hard drive list to see if it shows up. Hope that helps.

I don't believe iTunes supports FLAC. So far as I know, it supports only Apple Lossless, WAV and AIFF (in addition of course to compressed formats like MP3 and AAC). You would probably need another piece of software to import files in FLAC format, and I don't know what that would be. Would probably depend on whether you have a Mac or PC. You could probably find an answer on the internet somewhere. Sorry I can't be more help.

JW485, I tried what you are describing and everything in my existing music library played fine. I streamed over my 2006 Macbook Pro(802.11g). To set it up in Itunes go under edit &gt; preferences&gt; advanced and change the location to your external HD. The problem I had was with downloading new music. Itunes failed to authorize and completely download any newly purchased music, and it took a day of email exchanges with the Apple support to redownload the music. Ultimately, I changed the library location back to default to my local laptop HD so that I could purchase new music without the headache. I was a bit disappointed in the process considering the cost of the router and Apple's reputation.

I'm using aiff mac files and some standard iTunes files and have no problem but, idid find it challenging to import files. if found it easier to drop and drag files to a pre added named folder. i love the ability to hear high quality music file. its worth the hassle to me. you can hear things that you could not conventionally. i never liked low grade mp3 files. sounds terrible. for me its worth it to revisit old tunes at this qua lit. might even get the x5 for more navigation control. hope you find your answer and this response was useful to anyone. good luck.

You should be able to...mp3 files generally transfer into my itunes library but I haven't actually tried it yet. I was planning on downloading the software today and giving it a try so I will give a definite answer later.

I usually use windows media player, but you can use anything really. Itunes works and just copying from windows explorer works also. Hope that helps.

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 don't own a mac, so I'm not sure. I use this with Sony Acid Music studio program.

Also, PC iTunes can stream to numerous units simultaneously as well as Macs. I swap the audio back and forth from my Mac to the PC, depending on whose computer I'm wishing to use.

For Mac users, if you are iTunes users, you have to convert your music files into MP3 & WMA format songs, and then put them into the drive. &#65288;it won't sync to your itunes&#65289;

I never used iTunes but I did a quick google search and in a few forums, people discussed that it can play iTunes, but it won't sync with apple software. Apparently you'd have to just manually copy and paste the files.

The product comes with software to download directly to your computer. I am pretty certain that it will work through iTunes.

I assume you mean Mac and not Itunes. Songs can be loaded on the unit as you would copy any folders to an external drive. Most of your music is just on folders on a micro sd card, nothing special about that. There is a small amount of internal memory (8gb which is more than some ipods) that can be used for some music, although it is probably better to use this area just for system files and playlists. You can make playlists with a little juggling (I list steps in my review), but I would definitely not use Itunes with this unit. Firmware updates work by unzipping and copying a file to the unit, no problem using Mac for that. As far as actual compatibility with Mac, the only place it would matter is with the DAC driver. This is where you use the DX90 as an external DAC device and you are playing music from your computer directly through the DX90 to improve the sound quality. The driver appears to be PC only if you care about having that function.

Nope, it couldn't be easier. When you plug the clip into your windows computer a menu pops up, one of the options is for transferring music, click on that, a folder opens like any folder in windows. In that folder there are several folders for music, audiobooks, etc. Copy your music into the folder and you are good to go. No need to use any program to do the transfer, its super easy.

If your music is in an mp3 format, then, yes, you can just copy it onto this little doo dad. Here's how I use it in my hypnotherapy practice: I use Garage Band on my Mac to create an audio program. Then I tell Garage Band to share the audio file onto iTunes. Then I copy it onto the USB player doo dad. And presto!
