• RUBBISH. PROGRAM WON'T OPEN. NO TECH SUPPORT!!

  john-vidlerMarch 4, 2009

  Pros

  NONE AT ALL - THE PROGRAM SIMPLY WON'T RUN AND THERE IS NO TECH SUPPORT. NO RESPONSE TO SEVERAL E-MAILS SENT

  Cons

  THE PROGRAM SIMPLY DOESN'T WORK AND I USE WINDOWS XP RATHER THAN VISTA

  Summary

  I bought this software from Amplify Software's site. Downloaded it and installed it but every time I try to open it, I get a message that the program has to close. Before I bought it, I read in other reviews that this problem happened for people using Windows Vista. I use XP Home so I wasn't concerned and went ahead with the purchase. Not a wise move since the program is rubbish. Don't waste your money on this. PayPal won't help either since it's software (an intangible as they call it). John

• MusicSafe Saved My Life!

  marsroverroverFebruary 13, 2009

  Pros

  Simple interface that's easy to use and navigate plus one-click iPod backup!

  Cons

  None so far - works great on my new Vista laptop (Dell).

  Summary

  I lost my girlfriend's laptop. She was mad, but luckily it was insured. Unfortunately, all of her iTunes music was now gone and locked on her iPod. I did a quick search on download.com, found MusicSafe, paid $10 bucks and backed up everything on her iPod onto my laptop in ten minutes. Booyah!

  Summary

  sounds like a good program, but I wouldnt know, it was a complete waste of time

• Good product, surprisingly good support

  JBagnottiFebruary 8, 2009

  Pros

  Easy to use, support was great

  Cons

  Would have liked to be able to choose backup format

  Summary

  Usually with programs like this support is either bad or non-existent. To my surprise, when I asked a question on a Sunday, I got a response within two hours! Running iTunes on my Vista machine was not an option, so this works great for me. The only thing I'd like to see is the ability to change the format of files that are backed up. I mentioned this to support and they told me they have put it on a list of feature requests made from users and it will be included in the next version. How cool is that!

• Used the trial on Vista, worked great! Bought it too!

  mushmoufFebruary 7, 2009

  Pros

  Easy to use for novices, great price. Trial is actually 7 days, nice surprise

  Cons

  None so far

  Summary

  I am not exacly a power user, and was wondering if it would work with Vista. I used the trial first, everything worked fine, then bought the product after the trial ran out. I did research, and bought what was the easiest iPod product to use. The trial is 7 days, not 3 like the description says -nice bonus - but why would anyone buy the product without using the free trail first? No problems so far, so I'm happy. I saw some of the reviews were trashing muliple iPod products - I guess it's easier for competitors to write bad reviews of other products than fix their own products. My bottom line is use the trial before you buy to see if it works for you, and try this product! You will like it - even using Vista!

• Great product, even better price

  oonhgdrrioJanuary 17, 2009

  Pros

  The MusicSafe is very easy to use and looks good. Copying songs from iPods to the PC is fast and works. I bought two copies for my machines. The price is better than the others and I like it.

  Cons

  Nothing bad to say - bought two copies one for my old XP machine and one for my new Vista machine. Both work great.

  Summary

  Product does a very good job as advertised for copying music to and from iPod. No problems and the price is half of the others which is very nice too.

• Doesn't work

  carlosjr123January 17, 2009

  Pros

  Don't know... Doesn't work

  Cons

  Doesn't work

  Summary

  Installed this software and try to run the program. Immediately got the "MusicSafe has stopped working" dialogue box from Vista. Vista attempted to repair without success. I tried uninstalling, re-installing, and repairing multiple times to no avail. WASTE OF TEN BUCKS!!!
