Sync iTunes With Smartphone (Pre Included) for Free

smsm-index_03The news that Apple blocked the ability for Palm Pre owners to sync their phone with iTunes came as no surprise. Apple had warned Pre owners that the ability to sync the phone with iTunes might go away, and the very next iTunes update did so. Kevin pointed out some good methods to sync the Pre to iTunes without the help of Apple, so those wanting to get their groove on can still do so. Today we heard of a free solution that not only works with the Pre, but with other smartphones, too. Salling Media Sync works on both Macs and Windows PCs and will sync iTunes music to phones with ease.

The program is free to use, but there is a paid version ($22) that syncs faster. In addition to music libraries, Salling Media Sync will move podcasts and photos between the computer and the phone. I haven’t tried it yet but plan to do so shortly. Of course, DRM-infested music will not be copied, as it can’t be played on the phone anyway.
