so, i use the bridge app to basically download songs on my phone from the web and import them to the music app. Now, when i plug in my phone, i can see the songs in my device, but i can't transfer them to itunes. Does anyone know why or a way around this?
 
I would like to know this too, also if you use Bridge, than sync with iTunes does it delete the songs Bridge imported?

i have iTunes match and i also tried the sync. Music which were imported via bridge was still on the phone.

I hope someone figures out how to transfer from phone to iTunes because that's the main reason i got bridge is to download songs on the go and then transfer back to iTunes so i can listen at home.
 
I stopped using iTunes for most syncing. It doesn't like that I don't buy all my music there. Try iExplorer. On your desktop

I used I explorer before and it's great. I'm currently using Mac, is there a similar software like that?

i have been using iFunBox, its a bit of an extra step but it gets what I am looking for

I use MusicBox to download songs, plug in use iFunBox to copy the songs to my computer, import to my iTunes library, edit the tags and album art, than that way it syncs back to my Music app with my other songs

hey bro, i downloaded ifunbox, but i can't access the raw file system.. like VAR/MOBILE.. and so on.. do i have to install something else?
 
I have done all this and I still cannot move the files. I can see the files on ifunbox but they aren't moving when I try to copy them to my mac. This worked fine on my old iphone. Is ios8 not compatible with ifunbox or something?
