I want to sync my iTunes songs/playlists to my Nokia N8

There is an application called "Nokia Multimedia Transfer" that will work to sync, and there are other Mac tools also available from Nokia. I am looking forward to people answering you because in my own experience all of these applications are very buggy.

Whether I use the Nokia tools or move the library manually to the SD card, I cannot get things to work correctly.
 
Would this be workable - Do it in two steps? First convert the iTunes library to something more Nokia Music app suitable database, and then move it over?

Heck, perhaps synch the iPod/iPhone with WinAmp and the Sync/MLIPod plugin (included with WinAmp) and then you'd have a human-readable set of songs/playlists in your My music folder to treat and do with as you wished. (?)
 
There is a freeware program called "iTunes Sync" that hooks into iTunes and allows you to push music from iTunes over to non-apple devices. The only catch is that you can only push iTunes play lists and not the whole iTunes music library. You could create a play list of your whole library and push it as a work around. One other thing, if you push multiple play lists, your phone's music player will not recognize each play list. It will just dump all the songs into the music library on the phone. I use this program with my e71 and it works like a charm! I only push certain play lists onto my phone anyway, so the program works well for my needs.
 
If you notice in Symbian's media player there is a menu item for "Genre" So here's what I did, I downloaded MediaMonkey its freeware because it has various auto-tag features and I changed the song genre's from whatever they were to whatever the collection was in each folder. Here's an example in a folder named "Assorted Artist's" there are many songs from various artists of different genre's, so in order for me to get Symbian to make a decent playlist from the phone itself I changed the genre's of all the songs in folder "Assorted Artist's" to "Assorted Artist's" using mediamonkey on my pc. Then I copied that folder over to the phone. Now open up media player and select genre and you will see an item named "Assorted Artist's"
