Re: [Banshee-List] Problems putting music onto phone



If your phone has a 'USB Mass Storage' mode then you can use that and support will be as usual, more recent Android versions appear to be pushing MTP/PTP only, for which there is support in Banshee through libmtp.

If you can mount it in nautilus via MTP and reliably see files then Banshee should work too. The tricky part is that Banshee has to unmount the phone to get a connection. Usually with some cajoling you can get Banshee < 2.9 to recognise MTP devices but support is much better in the development version at the moment.

How well does Banshee handle syncing music to  an Android phone these days ? I always had trouble in the past with it seeing my phone.

I want to put music
on my iPhone 5.  Banshee can see the device, says it putting music on the
phone, then nothing happens! When I look in the music folder on the phone
the is nothing added; what am I doing wrong?

Nothing, writing to newer iOS devices is not supported by libgpod (used by Banshee to manage iOS devices), cf. http://www.gtkpod.org/wiki/Home
