Burn CD from iPod playlist?

I'm listening to some songs I ripped from my purchased CDs on my work PC - the library file these tracks were initially added from is on my home PC. Along the way, I made a playlist in iTunes and saved this playlist on my iPod for later listening. Since I listen to music in my car, I'd also like to burn the files in that playlist to a CD, however since I'm using song files stored on my iPod it's not letting me burn them to CD, even though they are DRM-free MP3 files I ripped from my own CDs.
Is there a way to work around the asinine "copy guard" BS that's part of iTunes so I can use MY music the way I want? Thanks in advance!

So... I can't burn to a CD from my iPod - I'll need to copy the files to my PC to do that.
Oh, wait... whoops, I forgot - I can't even COPY the files from my iPod to the second PC from that iPOd without a third-party application...
That sounds like a DRM issue to me, seeing as how it's in no way a TECHNICAL issue. it's an artificial limitation imposed on my file usage by the software. Grrr.
But I see what you're saying - without the files being on the PC that created the initial Library file (my home PC), I cannot burn a CD. At least I'll be able to take the Playlist I made and saved on my iPod and use it as the burn list on my home PC, correct?
Thanks for the Product Feedback link - not thatit will do me any good I assume, but at least I'll go on record as being dis-satisfied with the service. If enough people complain maybe things will change. Appreciate it!

  • Burning tracks from iPod Playlist

    Hi all,
    The time has come to get my 50Gb of music off my powerbook and keep my library entirely on my iPod Photo 60Gb.
    Before I make the leap I wanted to check if it's still possible to burn cds of playlists stored on your iPod? I can remember I used to be able to do this under older versions of iTunes but I cant find any mention of this feature now.
    Can anyone shed any light? Any help greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Drew

    You can't burn directly from your iPod. If the playlists are in iTunes you can burn them from there

  • Burning CDs from iPod playlist

    Hi, I want to be able to drag songs from my iPod playlists into the library stored in my computer, so that I can burn CDs. It won't let me drag them... help!

    I want to be able to drag songs from my iPod playlists into the library stored in my computer
    Do you mean from library to your playlist, right?
    Try to create a new playlist (not smart playlist), open iTunes ->Files-> New playlist. Then drag the songs from the library to the new playlist

  • When I try to burn music from my Playlist to a blank CD, the notification tells me that the list has too many minutes for the CD, even if I try to burn just one song. What's going on?

    WHEN I TRY TO BURN MUSIC FROM MY PLAYLIST TO A BLANK CD, THE NOTIFICATION COMES UP AND TELLS ME I AM EXCEEDING THE NUMBER OF MINUTES THE CD WILL HOLD. THIS NOTIFICATION HAPPENS EVEN IF I TRY TO BURN JUST ONE SONG. WHAT'S GOING ON?

    Katy, you are completely doing things in the wrong order.  You can't burn songs if you can't even play them, and iTunes can't play them if it can't find them. 
    The exclamation point normally occurs if the song file, or one of its containing folders, has been moved, renamed or deleted.  So if you encounter a track with an exclamation point, don't do anything else until you find the file.  It is usually somewhere else on your hard drive, or else in the Recycle bin.  Failing both of those, get it from your most recent backup.
    After your restore it, make sure it can play.  If it can play you can put it into a playlist.  Then you can burn the playlist.

  • Burn cd from ipod classic

    how do i burn a cd from my ipod classic ?

    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    The transfer of content sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide

    After the burning process is complete and I test the burnt Cd for playback; I get the message "you have inserted a blank disc" I am using blank audio cds that have been ok in the recent past. Can anyone help please?

    It should answer most of your questions very thoroughly.
    With regard to your question about the iTMS music contained on the audio CD, the DRM is removed when you burn purchased/protected content to audio CD. You are limited in terms of how many times you can burn the same playlist when purchased/protected content is part of it, etc.

  • Burning songs from iPhone?

    so, i lost my a few of my purchased itunes songs when my computer crashed and didn't have a back up. but, i do have the songs on my iPhone. Is there a way to burn directly from there?

    Burning refers to making a CD or DVD, you can't burn these from an iPhone or iPod, you can only burn disks from a playlist in iTunes. if you want to copy purchases from the phone, the transfer of purchased content only from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7.

  • Is there ANY way to transfer songs from ipod to library???

  • Burn playlist from ipod nano  urgent

    they will not drag to library
    or other playlist
    i tried to burn them to cd
    but it wont highlight
    i tryed new playlist but songs wont drag over

    You would have to move the songs onto your computer from your iPod first and then burn them from your computer. iTunes cannot burn the songs if they are only on the iPod.
    You can use free software such as this to move the music from iPod to computer...
