Syncing your Itunes library with your android phone.

So you want to sync you itunes library with your android device? 

First, download itunes agent
After install the application runs in the system tray.
Plug in your android phone using your USB cable. (note: if your android phone prompts you for a connection type select to use as a Disk Drive) 
Open the drive from your computer and create a folder called Music.
Click the iTunes Agent icon in the system tray and select preferences. 
Leave all Agent check boxes checked
Provide a name. e.g HTC Incredible 2
Select iTunes as the Synchronize pattern
Click Choose to select your Music Folder (this is the Music folder you created on your phone. When selected it will be displayed as "Music" in the Music folder field)
In the Recognize by folder/file field select the Music folder again on your phone. This will create a .ita file that directs iTunes Agent to the folder to sync with.
I Use device name to Associate with playlist as it helps keep iTunes clean. 
Click Save

Next launch iTunes and you will see Devices in your playlists. Copy the music you wish to have on your phone to the playlist. 
Open the iTunes Agent and Synchronize Devices

Next step is on to your phone.
I prefer Cubed for Android (also known as 3) but your mp3 player is entirely up to you!

Enjoy!
