Can't get iTunes files to my Blackberry via a card reader

I have a MacBook w/ Mac OS-X 10.5.7 and a Blackberry Tour. I have used Pocket Mac to sync my Entourage Calendar and it worked great. But no one seems to be able to help me get my iTunes music and podcasts onto my phone. Verizon suggested I "just carry dump the music files over to the card." So I bought a card reader (Dynex 6 in 1), but the 2GB mico SD card (that came with the phone) information says "You can only read" under the sharing & permissions section. So how do I change this setting? I can see the folder for music and for podcasts, but it won't let me copy and drag the files over. Or is this "read only" issue not the problem? Is it something else? Help!!!

    Ok, here's the solution I found.

    Here is free software called Blackberry Desktop Manager. It does what all the pc people thought I should be able to do. http://rs487.rapidshare.com/files/275051...


    And the Crackberry post walks you through setting it up--it works great. http://crackberry.com/blackberry-desktop...


    Eventually the official Blackberry version of the software will be found here: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/de...

    I am now able to synch my itunes with my BB without having to use a card reader.

    Note: this beta version doesn't recognize the "podcasts" group in itunes, so I just made a playlist of my podcasts! And it worked just great.

    (I never did figure out how to remove the "read only" from my card when being read from the card reader.)

If you bought the music from itunes than you might not be able to add songs to devices like phones because apple formats their songs to not be played from anything but ipods.

Connect your phone with the card in it to your computer, and move the files over to the 'music' folder on the phone using the Media Manager application that is part of Blackberry Desktop Manager.

How do i sync my ipad with my macbook pro?
You can choose iTunes to sync iPad with your Mac, but you should be careful when you are using iTunes to sync iPad. iTunes is not simply backup or transfer software, and it doesn't allow you to transfer non-purchases. So you only have authority to sync purchased items, including apps, music, movies and so on to your Mac or iTunes library. Check out the following steps.

  1. Authorize your new computer to use your Apple ID. Install iTunes on your new computer and then Authorize it in the Store tab.This is the email address you use to sign into iTunes (and probably anything else Apple-related). If you don't know it offhand, you can just check the computer you're currently syncing with. If you go into the iTunes Store it should appear in the upper-right corner. Once you know it, go to the new computer you want to sync with and locate the Store menu. From there, choose "Authorize This Computer". (In the event you've switched Apple IDs and made purchases with more than one, you'll need to perform this authorization for every account.)
  2. Back Up Your iPhone. Just in case anything goes wrong when you are syncing, back up your iPhone, so that if all else fails, you'll be able to restore it to the way it is right now. To do this, connect your iPhone to your computer with its USB cable and open iTunes, Click "File > Device > Back up".
  3. Transfer Purchases from your iPhone. Now you'll want to transfer all of your iTunes purchases (including free apps, paid apps, songs, books and movies) from your iPhone to your new computer. To do this, right-click (CTRL-click on a Mac) your iPhone within iTunes and choose Transfer Purchases. Or click "File > Devices > Transfer Purchases from my iPhone". Then iTunes will start syncing the purchased items to the library.

Micro SD card is write protected, but can't seem to reformat it
you might try formatting it with a windows pc. Sometimes devices have problems with cards formatted by Mac. Even when it is formatted to a FAT file system. On a side note I don't believe that Macs will format to Fat 16 anymore. (Macs use a different file system that windows altogether). You may also check the card to make sure that there isn't a manual read only switch. (It would show a picture of a small lock next to a tiny switch on the card)

Download songs from ITunes on Macbook to Digital Audio Player
Itunes uses a file format called AAC. There aren't too many players other than the Ipods that can play AAC files. This is why your songs won't play on your Sandisk player. What you need to do is get a mp3 converter, I personally recommend DBPoweramp, excellent program and can convert nearly everything. Once you convert your AAC files to mp3, they should play no problem...
