How to have more than one playlist on the iPOD mini ...?

This may seem a silly question - after all, isn't it the whole point of the iPOD ? Anyway, with my current setup, I cannot get more than one playlist onto my ipod mini.
Using Win2000Pro, connecting using USB; there have been lots of other issues involving ' cannot read/write to ipod ' which have been reported on these forums , I started having problems after Apple 'upgraded' iTunes from 4.9 ...ended up with nothing on the ipod at all. Since then a few upgrades and now running iTunes 6.0 (not 6.0.1), it DOES sync with the ipod but does not let me manage the playlists:
Since my library is > the ipod ( 4 GB model) I cannot use the option ' sync all songs & playlists' , which is what I originally used when the library was < the ipod. At that point I did get ( automatically I think..) a few playlists onto the ipod.
Howeever, since the library got too big, I have to select 'sync to these playlists only' . I use 1 master list, which works, ( it syncs all the songs to the ipod and I get just that playlist on the 'pod) but any attempt to select another playlist from that dialogue box results in consistent hanging of iTunes, and you have to kikll it in task manager.
I would have thought that you could simply drag n drop a playlist onto the connected ipod icon (that would be more elegant) but the inteface doesn't allow it..
Oh and another thing ..why does the syncing tool delete ones on the go playlists from the pod ? I can't even get around this issue by making them manually on the 'pod as they get deleted when syncing.. Grrrrhhh
Where to go from here guys & gals ??
Thanks...any tips gratefully received

Ok I'll try that, although I did try it earlier when I had iTunes 5.xx loaded, I think.
As to size of playlists, I have a master (900 songs) that defines what will fit onto the ipod , I then generate all the others as subsets of the master (not of the library)- hence I know they will all fit
Can you also clarify something for me: the dialogue box we are discussing is intended, I think, so that one can set the automatic synching of certain playlists between the PC & the ipod. Is that the only way one can select other playlists to go to the ipod - i.e. as static once-offs, not synchronised ?
Apple' docs, I think, are poor in this regard - they assume most ipods are bigger then the users song library and they gloss over the details of this alternate mode of playlist synching.
Thanks - Nick

  • I have more than one copy of the same song in my iTunes. Some have the icloud symbol next to them and some do not. I need to clean this up but I am afraid to delete the songs for fear I will lose them.

    I have more than one copy of the same song in my iTunes. Some have the icloud symbol next to them and some do not. I need to clean this up but I am afraid to delete the songs for fear I will lose them. Please help! On top of that my Mac keeps telling me my start up disc is full and I am deleting stuff like crazy!

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
    It won't be a problem if you delete your extra copies.
    I don't download very much to my tv, I do sometimes if I'm in bed but usually I do it from itunes. However if you have not fully downloaded something to the tv it is possible to start the download from itunes as well, you have likely activated 'check for downloads fin itunes in some way, could be by opening itunes, selecting 'check or downloads' from the advanced menu or that you simply have automatically check for downloads set in your prefs and it has checked coincidentally.

  • Can we have more than One DC for the sales organization and Plant combo?

    Can we have more than One DC for the sales organization and Plant combination?
    If yes can you please site a practical example to clear the picture

    Hi
    First of all in SAP sales orgs are assigned to distribution channels and the combination of sales org and distribution channel which is called distribution chain is assigned to plant
    There is  no direct link  between sales org  and plant or distribution channel and plant
    So  sales org  and plant combination doesnot exists and
    it is only sales org and dist channel combination which is  called as distribution chain only exists
    Nowhere in SAP we are assigning sales org to plant
    It is because sales org alone doesnot make sense and its combination with dist channel only makes sense
    because sales org is a selling org and the distribution channel is the route to sell and this combination has only to pick the material from plant to process sales to customers
    The relation between sales org and distribution channels is many to many and also vice versa
    Multiple sales orgs can be assigned to one distribution channel and
    Multiple distribution channels  can be assigned to one sales org
    Similarly the relation ship between Distribution chain (sales org+dist channel) to plant is also many to many and vice versa
    Similarly plants from other company codes can also be assigned to Distribution chain to facilitate intercompany processes
    In whatever way look at it the multiple distribution channels can be fit anywhere

  • Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

    Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

    You cannot set up more than one user account on the iPad if that is what you mean.
    Obviously families will share an iPad, but they are really meant to be single user devices with one Apple ID only on the iPad. Multiple ID's on one iPad can become a bit of a hassle to deal with.
    There is no way to lock apps or email accounts so that can become an issue as well. If you use the built in mail app for email, whoever is using the iPad can read your email.

    Tabbed browsing is the way. Go to Safari's View menu:

  • How to send more than one value to the Jump target report variable screen.

    Hi,
       I have two reports with Plant variable on their input variable screens. Say this Plant can take two values X and Y. The first report is executed with Plant value X and displays data. When a jump is made  to report two, Plant value X is retrievd into report two's plant varible value. Now how to send value Y also to Report two when jump is made. I think we can do it with a customer exit? Any help is appreciated
    Thanks

    Hi Bhanu,
    I guess u have created a Variable with Sinlge value ,So Create a Variable which has Multiple Sinlge Values or Interval so that u can have more than one value and if u hvae more than value u will get data for those values and when u do a jump then u can see the data in the JUMP query for both the Values of Input.

  • How to have more than one Bridge Web Photo Gallery in a site

    I'm having a problem inserting more than one bridge web photo gallery in my site. I have thumbnails of different jobs and when clicked I want a new page to load with all the images of that job. I have one thumbnail linked to one of the galleries and I made another gallery and can't find the code to change to link it to the new html gallery. When the page loads it shows the first gallery I made instead of the new gallery.
    Example:
    I made a gallery of a deck job and on my photo page there is a thumbnail. When clicked it brings up the deck.html photo gallery made in bridge cs4. Good!
    Now, I made a gallery of an outdoor fireplace and on my photo page there is a thumbnail. When clicked it should load the photo gallery of the outdoor fireplace. It loads the gallery of the deck instead.
    I understand that the code needs to be changed to link to the new files. I changed the "resource" folder for the outdoor fireplace to "resource2" and changed the code script src="resources" to script src="resources2" and it did not work
    I suspect that I need to change the code that points to group.xml and rename the new photo gallery group.xml to group2.xml so it will find the one in my resources2 folder, but I can't find the code anywhere.
    Any help would be great. Also, if there is a better way of doing this let me know?
    Thanks

    Maybe I can explain this better....
    the group.xml file has the information for what images to load. When previewing the outdoor fireplace web gallery "of.html" it loads the "deck.html" web gallery. I believe this is because in one of the files it is requesting the info from the group.xml file from the resourses folder. I need to find where the code is that directs it to the group.xml and change it to group2.xml and rename that group.xml file for "of.html" to group2.xml in the resourses2 folder.

    you can create your on array type and then pass that as the parameter. I use the suffix of ttyp to represent a table type.  The name of the column when using the table() syntax is columnvalue.
    I altered my session to set the default date format to match your format. you could have used the to_date function to set the values for the arr type.
    Hope this helps.
    create type msw_ttyp as table of date
    create or replace
    procedure msw_test(p_arr     in msw_ttyp) as
    v     integer;
    begin
    select count(*)
       into v
       from table(p_arr);
    dbms_output.put_line('count: '||v);
    for rec in (select column_value
                   from table(p_arr))
    loop
      dbms_output.put_line(rec.column_value);
    end loop;
    end msw_test;
    alter session set nls_date_format = 'MM/DD/YYYY';
    set serveroutput on size 1000000
    exec msw_test(msw_ttyp('01/17/2010', '01/27/2010','05/22/2010'));

  • Can you have more than one account on the ipad?

    I'm looking into using the ipad in our manufacturing facility, with more than one user on a single ipad.
    Can you have multiple user accounts on it, and if not how would you set up email with multiple accounts where one user can't access another's account?
