Аналоги itunes для windows 10

Важно! Разработчики предоставляют пользователям немало достойных альтернатив iTunes, однако практически все они требуют наличия последнего на компьютере, так как используют его средства для самостоятельной работы.

iTools

Это настоящий швейцарский нож для iPhone, iPad и iPod, и если не лучший, то точно наиболее известный и функционально богатый аналог iTunes для Windows. iTools обладает массой полезных для пользователей Apple-техники возможностей, среди которых стоит выделить файловый менеджер, средство для создания скриншотов и записи видео с экрана, полноценный инструмент для создания рингтонов. Программой поддерживается работа с фотоснимками, в ней реализован гораздо более удобный способ загрузки медиафайлов на мобильное устройство и многое другое.

Ввиду того что из айТюнс давно была удалена возможность установки и обновления приложений, нельзя не отметить наличие такой функции в айТулс как достоинство. Причем делается это не через предустановленный на iOS-девайсах App Store, а из IPA файлов, что особенно удобно в случае региональных ограничений, когда тот или иной сервис недоступен в стране, или когда требуется установить неактуальную версию. К недостаткам программы следует причислить то, что для ее нормальной работы все же требуется наличие установленного на компьютере «тунца», плюс время от времени появляется предложение об активации, хотя большая часть функций доступна и без этого.

iFunBox

Данный инструмент – это еще одна мощная замена фирменному медиакомбайну iTunes, которая позволяет копировать файлы различного типа (музыку, рингтоны, видео, фото, обои, книги) наиболее привычным для пользователей способом – простым перетаскиванием. Как и рассмотренное выше решение, iFunBox не только имеет поддержку русского языка (хотя перевод корявый и иногда идет вперемешку с английским и китайским), но и требует активации (при этом большая часть функций работает и без нее). Позволяет запретить скачивание и установку OTA-обновлений, хотя полезность такой функции явно сомнительная.

Функционально данная программа мало чем отличается от iTools, разве что позволяет не только обновлять, устанавливать и удалять приложения, но и извлекать IPA файлы из тех, что уже содержатся на iPhone или iPad – это явно может пригодиться для быстрого и удобного «переезда» с одного устройства на другое. Отдельно стоит выделить встроенный набор утилит, предоставляющих возможность удобного управления общим хранилищем и файловой системой, а также установку приложений из репозитория Cydia. Правда, последнюю особенность сложно назвать актуальной, как и Jailbreak в целом.

Важно! В процессе тестирования iFunBox было замечено чрезмерное потребление оперативной памяти (свыше половины из всей доступной на ПК, 7 из 12 Гб), временное мерцание экрана, деактивация функции «Ночной свет» и затем полное отключение монитора. Проблема решилась только перезагрузкой. Эти недостатки с лихвой перекрывают обозначенные выше преимущества, а потому рекомендовать программу к использованию мы точно не можем.

iExplorer

В отличие от первых двух решений, данная программа распространяется по исключительно платной модели, однако позволяет воспользоваться демо-версией, благодаря чему можно убедиться в ее возможностях и том, насколько это достойная замена iTunes. С помощью iExplorer вы можете легко и удобно управлять Apple-устройствами, как это делается в «Проводнике» Windows, и не только обмениваться файлами, но и создавать резервные копии данных (контактов и звонков, текстовых и голосовых сообщений, заметок, истории браузера и закладок, записей в календаре, документов и т.д.)

Недостатки – это, вероятное всего то, с чего вы начнете знакомство с данной программой. Так, практически любой антивирус распознает ее установщик как потенциально опасный, система запрещает ее инсталлировать, а если это все же получится сделать, вас встретит англоязычный интерфейс, который внешне больше напоминает менеджер для Windows Phone, чем для iPhone и других iOS-девайсов. Смогут ли это перекрыть достоинства в виде продвинутых средств создания бэкапа и практичного файлового менеджера – решать только вам.

CopyTrans

Это не полноценная программа-аналог iTunes, а набор утилит, каждая из которых устанавливается отдельно. С одной стороны – это хорошо, так как каждый сможет инсталлировать на свой компьютер только необходимые инструменты для работы с iOS-девайсами, с другой – далеко не все хотят заморачиваться с выбором. К тому же описание каждого компонента, как и интерфейс в целом, выполнено на английском языке, а некоторые из них являются уж слишком узкоспециализированными.

CopyTrans является платным (есть ознакомительная версия) и состоит из девяти модулей, в числе которых есть средство для переноса музыки с iPhone в библиотеку iTunes (то есть наличие последнего тоже является обязательным), инструменты для управления, бэкапа и переноса контактов, сообщений, фото, документов, приложений и других данных, утилиты для создания резервных копий, восстановления, работы с iCloud. Резюмируя, отметим, что эту программу нельзя назвать плохой, но она точно не является удобной в использовании и интуитивно понятной.

Скачать программу CopyTrans

iMazing

Еще одна платная альтернатива iTunes и единственная в нашем обзоре, об интерфейсе которой можно сказать – это точно продукт для iOS-девайсов. Внешне она выглядит так, как будто разрабатывалась непосредственно компанией Apple, а в плане инструментария содержит в своем составе все, что может только потребоваться обладателю iPhone и/или iPad. iMazing, как и большинство рассмотренных выше решений, позволяет обмениваться файлами любого (поддерживаемого) типа, управлять приложениями (установка, обновление, удаление), переносить данные между устройствами, но это далеко не единственные ее достоинства.

Программа позволяет не только создавать резервные копии и восстанавливаться из них, но и шифровать, хранить в любом удобном месте на диске, делать по расписанию, а по необходимости и удалять. Также с ее помощью можно обновить, переустановить iOS и даже, если такая необходимость возникнет, удалить все содержимое мобильного устройства. Единственный недостаток мы обозначили сразу – необходимость приобретения полной версии, без которой самые интересные и полезные функции недоступны.

Скачать программу iMazing

Syncios

Программа, предоставляющая все необходимые возможности для удобной работы с iPhone, iPad и iPod, во многом превосходящая iTunes, но своей основной функциональностью несколько уступающая iTools, с которого мы начали эту статью. Syncios имеет англоязычный интерфейс и является платной, причем настойчиво напоминает об этом. Но на недостатки можно попытаться закрыть глаза – во-первых, ее базовых инструментов и функций будет достаточно большинству, во-вторых – в арсенале имеется немало приятных фишек, которых нет в рассмотренных выше решениях.

Это файловый менеджер не только для iOS, но и для Android-девайсов, наделенный не только средствами переноса данных, создания резервных копий и их восстановления, но и собственным инструментом для создания GIF и, что особенно интересно, загрузчиком видео. Польза от последнего существенно усиливается благодаря встроенному конвертеру файлов (поддерживает не только видео, но и аудио). В составе также имеются всевозможные чистильщики и ускорители, но их эффективность, как и необходимость использования в целом, остаются под большим вопросом.

Скачать программу Syncios

Wondershare TunesGo

Завершаем наш сегодняшний обзор аналогов iTunes программой, которая собрала в себе все возможности последнего и была наделена рядом полезных, необходимых для многих пользователей функций. Стандартный набор инструментов мало чем отличается от таковых в большинстве рассмотренных выше решений – здесь доступен перенос мультимедийных данных, установка, обновление и удаление приложений, получение полной информации об устройстве. Есть простой и удобный файловый менеджер.

В Wondershare TunesGo есть набор утилит, решающих разного рода задачи. В числе таковых восстановление библиотеки iTunes, возможность создания резервных копий и отката к таковым, инструмент для переноса данных, приложения для создания GIF и рингтонов. Уникальной особенностью является средство для исправления ошибок в работе iOS на iPhone и iPad. Недостатки программы очевидны и их можно заметить даже по скриншотам – интерфейс выполнен на английском языке, а для получения доступа ко всем функциям нужно приобрести полную версию.

Скачать программу Syncios

Каждая из рассмотренных в статье программ является более чем достойным аналогом фирменного продукта Apple – мультимедийного комбайна iTunes. Практически все они превосходят в функциональном плане последний, но помимо достоинств имеют и недостатки. У одних это англоязычный интерфейс, у других — платная версия, а третьи совместили в себе обе проблемы.

From making playlists to collecting your favorite tracks and uploading music to your MP3 player, Apple’s iTunes has defined how a whole generation listens to music.

However, the company replaced iTunes with dedicated media apps for podcasts, TV, and music to accommodate consumers’ content consumption trends in the modern age.

There are several iTunes substitutes for Windows. MusicBee, Amarok, PotPlayer to name a few. Though the best iTunes alternative for Windows is VLC Music Player. It’s free, open-source, free from ads, and compatible with most formats.

Why explore iTunes alternatives for Windows?

For Windows users, iTunes can be a pain. The software hogs resources doesn’t have a web version, and has authorization limits that can be troublesome if you have multiple devices.

Not only that, but the iTunes for Windows interface seems to be confusing for even the savviest of PC users and has for a long time been outdated. It also has high synching time, compatibility issues with devices, and irregular backup functioning.

If you don’t like using iTunes for whatever reason, there are several iTunes alternatives for Windows as mentioned above. They are less resource-intensive, offer various options, tools, support for media file formats, and offer an easy-to-use experience compared to iTunes.

GPU video decoding or hardware decoding is available and you can turn it on at runtime on demand. MPV leverages most hardware decoding APIs on multiple platforms.

You can embed MPV to make it usable as a library and facilitate easy integration with other applications thanks to its straightforward C API.

The player is under active development so you can always post a patch or request for one. The developers are constantly focusing on cleanups and code refactoring while adding more features as the player grows better and better.

The project keeps a bit of what’s in the MPlayer and MPlayer 2 and is generally more efficient and less demanding in terms of resources compared to iTunes.

10. 5KPlayer

Wrapping Up

It can be long and frustrating to find the right media player for your Windows PC. There are so many iTunes alternatives you can download, but not all of them can match or supersede the player’s features and capabilities.

With the players on this list, you get a full set of features to help you play, organize, and sync your media library while managing your music and video collection your way.
