I honestly don't remember whether I tried iTunes, but it sucks either way. Either I tried and couldn't figure it out. Or maybe that's the only way to do it and I didn't try it? Which means you need some heavy proprietary software to copy a file. Every non-Apple mp3 player or smart phone that I've ever seen lets you use standard protocols to just move media around without setting up user accounts or synchronization settings or god knows what.
- tannhaeuser 7y agoJust fyi: easy up-/download options via USB have been degenerated on Linux as well. MTP (which Google pushed to replace mass storage device mode) is hit-and-miss on Ubuntu; for example, it doesn't work with S8 and newer at all. MicroSD doesn't work with newer/larger cards, Bluetooth is a clusterfuck ... in many ways, the last decade has been a desaster for interfaces people care about.
- Crinus 7y agoI remember ~10 years ago i used Automator with Folder actions (or something called like that) to setup automatic resize and transfer of videos from a folder to my iPod Touch through iTunes, so my guess is that iTunes would do the trick. Unless they broke it since then.
