Transfer iTunes music to Galaxy Tab

As you know, the music tracks purchased from iTunes store are protected by DRM. You can only play them on Apple iPod, iPad and iPhone and are limited to play on five Apple devices only. So if you want to play iTunes music with your Galaxy Tab, you need to remove iTunes DRM and convert iTunes music to (DRM free) audio files first.

The easiest way is to burn the music to an audio CD in iTunes and then rip it back as mp3 files.

Or you just get TuneClone to help you, which works great for converting a great number of music tracks, needs no CD discs and preserves the ID3 tags well. Here is the full step-by-step guide: http://www.tuneclone.com/convert-itunes10-m4p-to-mp3.php



After you get the output music files, you can then transfer them to your Galaxy Tab.

1. From the Home screen, tap Menu.
2. Tap Settings.
3. Tap Wireless & networks.
4. Select the Mass storage option.
5. Connect the Galaxy Tab to the computer with the included USB cable.
6. Slide down the notification panel at the top of the screen.

11. Copy the music files over to the Music folder.

Photo Slideshow Director iPad App

Socusoft Studio is excited to announce its first iPad application - Photo Slideshow Director – for making photo slideshows and streaming photo slideshows to HDTV at up to 1920X1080.

Photo Slideshow Director ( http://itunes.apple.com/app/photo-slideshow-director/id457847244 ) helps you create photo slideshows with music, transitions, themes, etc in minutes, immediately bringing your still photos to life. This iPad app is designed especially for streaming photo slideshows to HDTV, which enables your projects to be presented on TV in full screen.



Whether you are hosting a party, attending an exhibition, giving a lecture or having a wedding, Photo Slideshow Studio is your perfect assistant for showing fabulous photos to your audiences or guests on HDTV in full screen. With this cool iPad app, you can easily make a slideshow of your favorite photos in your iPad library, be they taken with the built-in camera in your iOS device or synced to your device. You are also allowed to add background music to the slideshow from your iPad music collections. Besides, there are up to 57 transition effects and 6 theme templates for you to choose from, which makes your slideshow look more dynamic and professional-looking. Sometimes, photos only cannot fully deliver the story behind. In this case, you can add a meaning text before the photos so that your audiences or guests can better understand what the slides are showing. In one word, Photo Slideshow Director provides you with more transitions and more options such as selecting photos and applying themes, which you can never find in the built-in slideshow program in iPad.

It goes without saying that the best part of Photo Slideshow Director is its ability to stream slideshows to HDTV. Compared to iPhone and iPod touch, the screen of iPad is big enough to play slideshows or movies. However, if you need to present slideshows to a large number of audiences or guests, it is better to play them on the TV's big screen than to pass on your iPad from one to another. It cannot be easier to play slideshows on TV with Photo Slideshow Director. Connect iPad and HDTV with Apple Digital AV Adapter and HDMI cable. Then your slideshows will be played back on TV and everyone can watch them. The photos with transitions, themes and background music look extraordinarily good on HDTV at up to 1920X1080.

The current version of Photo Slideshow Director works with iPad and iPad 2. It is now available on the Apple iTunes App Store. It is priced at USD3.99. You can learn more about Photo Slideshow Director from http://www.photo-slideshow-director.com
