GS3 - iSyncr/doubletwist doesn't work on Mac

So I just got my GS3 last night coming from a 4S. Something as simple as syncing music seems to be an adventure in itself.

So I'm running a Mac with Lion and I can't get doubletwist or iSyncr to work on it.

Doubletwist just flat out doesn't work unless you use air sync or whatever it's called and iSyncr doesn't even see my phone. Says "failure to load device."

In the finder on my Mac I have the iSyncr icon and when I click it, it shows on the first line the name of a bunch of different Samsung products like the Galaxy tab 7.1, GS1, GS2, GS3 etc.

Soooo how do I sync my iTunes nicely sorted and organized library to my new GS3? This is one of the reasons I was hesitant on switching because literally everything works so flawlessly on my iPhone.

EDIT: I looked up a problem from the iSyncr link it told me to go to when it said it failed and it wanted me to uninstall the Samsung Kies app my Mac? I never had it installed but I downloaded it and ran the uninstaller anyway and now iSyncr doesn't even know what my phone is. Says "unknown device."
 
Hello,

iSyncr not knowing what the device is isn't a big deal at all. It just means it didn't recognize the PID/VID.

Did you try using iSyncr even though it does not recognize the PID/VID?

Have you emailed iSyncr@jrtstudio.com?
