I have a Samsung Fascinate and had an i-pod. I lost my i-pod and now have to borrow DH's when I go for a run, but he seems to allows need it when I want to use it. I would like to just get an i-phone but I'm not due for an upgrade for another year and DH won't let me use his since I used the last 4 upgrades.

Is there a way to get my music on my Fascinate from I-tunes. If there is can anyone explain it simply, I'm not great with computer stuff.

Thanks!
 
You can use Itunes Agent to put itunes on other phones. There are instructions out there if you google it. I put mine on a droid but went back to an iphone.
 
You can store it on the Internet with Google Music and then access it with the Google Music app on any phone. I actually use this setup with my iPhone because I don't want to use all the space on my phone for my music.
 
I have an HTC android phone, and i just drag and drop.

(This applies only if you are running windows)

Connect your phone as a hard drive to your computer. Open a window for the phone.

Open My Music.
Open itunes folder.
Open Itunes music folder
Open the artist you want
Open the album you want.
Right click the song and click copy.
Click into the phone window and paste.

The old fashioned way is to burn your playlist to a CD. As soon as it finalizes, put it back into your computer and rip it to your computer through Windows media. Then once it is ripped you can add it to your phone, but you lose all of the song information this way- titles, genre, etc. I have to use this route when uploading songs to DH's sunglasses with a music player. It is older and doesn't recognize the itunes format.
 

Copy and paste as suggested by a PP is almost certainly the best approach.
 
I use an app called isync. It lets me choose a playlist to sync from, and it is a wireless sync. Also backs up my pics. Love it!
 
I have a Pantech Breakout, I just drag and drop what I want from iTunes (we have 2 iPods in the house) and put it on my micro SD card, I actually have a file on my desktop for my phone, drag the music there, then either plug in the phone or plug in the SD card to the laptop and drag the file over, it's super easy.
