Can someone please help and tell me how I can transfer media from itunes to the phone? With my Razor the music and movies was easy to just drag and drop but with the Nexus it wont take the files. Is there something wrong with my phone or is it all Nexus?

Mine is doing that same thing. Been googling the problem. I've not seen a solution yet. My PC can see it when I hook it up via the supplied USB cable, but the date transfer is so slow it would take hours to move 5 MB of data. 

 

BTW, Verizon, now would be a great time to creat a Samsung Galaxy Nexus forum and get some of these posts in a device specific listing.

And you've had this PHONE for how long??

I'd give it a few days to see if a solution comes up somewhere. Are you sure the movies are in a file format that the phone can see?

Geri, ive had the since Wednesday. A solution needs to come up or this phone is going back. The razor that i have for work will take the movies from itunes and all my music. Plus in the car the Nexus will not stream audio as great as the Razor thru bluetooth. All of the movies are MP4 and the music is MP3 and from what ive researched the Nexus will read both. I think its the fact that we are not using USB mass storage and we are using MTP

Like NuDroid, I also use iTunes Syncr and the WiFi addon. I tried DoubleTwist and just the regular iSyncr options (via USB) and it would not transfer. I have been able to sync my playlists, however, thorugh AirSync (DoubleTwist) and the iSyncr WiFi add-on. Unfortunately, you have to pay for both of these.

Yes but your Fascinate has USB mass storage which makes it easy to transfer files. The nexus does not have it. The nexus has this thing called MTP. Which i have that MTP makes it hard to transfer files. Ive been reading on google that evryone hates that USB mass storage is not on the Nexus. How does that iSyncr work?

Well, the regular iSyncr doesn't work with the Nexus as well (due to the MTP), so I have had to use wireless syncing. It runs surprisingly fast and was able to sync 800 songs in less than 1 hour on my home network. I tried a bunch of USB methods, but none seemed to work. 

 

iSyncr pretty much scans your iTunes and mirrors it onto your device. Easiest sync I've dealt with. Software is VERY minimal, less than 1MB. Pretty much just a checklist of what playlists you want (or your entire library), and you can do it all from your phone. Then you choose the playlists you want on your phone, and it syncs it wirelessly. Def worth the ~$6, have used it on all my Android phones since I use iTunes a lot. Completely synchronous 

 

Are you able to drag and drop? I haven't tried that, because I rely on iTunes auto-playlists (which iSyncr tracks and updates)
