Dapper is an app that copies your iTunes music and playlists to your Digtal Audio Player. It supports just about any player that allows it’s storage to be seen by your Mac as a drive, or most Android Based players that support Media Transfer Protocol (MTP). You can see a list of DAPs we have tested on the Tested DAPs page, but Dapper works with just about anything that shows up as a disk drive or uses MTP. If your DAP is not listed, you can use our Add DAP Service and send us your unit for us to generate a profile just for you.
We recommend you test and configure your own DAP before you buy: Download the demo version and try it!
Dapper requires OSX 10.8.5 or above and is available on the Mac App store.
You can see whats new at our post on Head-Fi.org.
Demo:
Dapper can do a lot of things for you from organizing your music (by Artist, Album, Composer, Genre etc). It can strip out foreign characters that confuse some Digital Audio Players, it can creating album artwork and much, much more.
It takes time to copy all these files over to your DAP so we highly recommend starting with just a small subset of your music and playing with the settings; so you get it set up just right. Then add all your music to playlists in the Dapper folder in iTunes and copy the rest.
