Sorting playlists on my iPad

How can I sort my playlists on my iPad, without having to drag each and every song manually in the edit mode?

Yeah, I'm stumped, too. Now I've found songs that aren't in alphabetical order!
I.e.:
Well ...
BWV ...
West ...
LIz, thanks for being the only one to jump in, besides Ibrahim, of course, but I think he fell more than jumped.
My daughter's getting a new MacBook for college next week; I may just slide this in front of a Genius while we're in the store.

Can I transfer playlists from my iPad to my new mac?

When I sync my iPad with my new mac I get a message that suggests that I can only transfer to the iPad from the mac. I have playlists on my iPad that I would like to transfer onto my new mac. Can this be done? And how?
Thanks

You can transfer the playlist (the actual list), but you can't make a copy of the music from the iPad to iTunes, unless they were purchased via iTunes.

In iTunes,12.01.26 how do i add a playlist to an ipad?

Just upgraded to 12.01.26 and can't transfer a playlist to my iPad. Any suggestions?

Connect your iPod
Click on the iPod icon (top left of screen)
Click on Music (under Settings, not On My Device) in the sidebar
Make sure that the Sync Music checkbox and the Selected playlists, artists, albums and genres radio button are selected.
You'll then see a list of all the playlists and playlists in your library. Check those that you want to sync, then click Apply (bottom right of screen).

Hi,
I have just updated to iTunes 11, once I opened itunes I noticed all my music, books, programs and app's had disapeared. Luckily for me I have everything backed up, except for my playlists.
Is there a way to save /transfer the playlist from my iPad to the computer?
And is there a way to backup the playlist for next time I need to restore my computer or update Itunes.

And is there a way to backup the playlist for next time I need to restore my computer or update Itunes.
Your playlists and other info is stored in the "iTunes Library..ITL" file in your My Documents\My Music\iTunes directory, if you regularly back up that file you are safe. Also just to be sure also backup the iTunes Library.xml which is located in the same directory.

How I can download my iTunes playlist onto my IPad mini

Hi all,
Does anybody know how I can download my iTunes playlist onto my IPad mini so that I can play it without being connected to WiFi? At the moment if I am not in a WiFi zone I can't play my music...
Thanks!

Apple devices can hold protected content from up to five different accounts, however updating apps purchased over more than one account (as far as I'm aware) requires signing in and out of each account. You may be better off continuing to use one account for your family, as I do, but disabling the options on each device for the automatic download of purchases made on the account, and in iTunes, the automatic inclusion of new apps when syncing from the library to the device.

Adding songs to an existing playlist on an iPad

I Have an existing playlist which I created. It's not a Smart Playlist. Now that I finished the list a while ago I'd like to add more songs from my music library. There doesn't seem to be an obvious way to do anything but delete songs. Does anyone know how to add songs to an existing playlist on an iPad?

I assume that the songs are already in the Music app on your iPad.
Go to the Playlist tab in the Music App and select the Playlist that you want to add songs to. Tap Edit in the upper left - above the first song in the list. Then tap the red + sign in the upper right portion of the screen. Scroll/swipe down through your songs and then tap the + signs to add the songs to the Playlist. When you are finished, tap Done.

Sync Playlists Automatically Between iPad and iPhone

Hi all,
I've currently both devices set-up so if I download a track from iTunes pn either device it will automatically download it on both devices by turning on the automatic download.
However, if I create a playlist on my iPad it will not automatically sync to my iPhone and vice-versa.
The only way i solve this is by me syncing the iPad to my computer so it puts the playlist on the computer, then syncing my iPhone so it puts the playlist on my iPhone.
Is there an easier way whereby when i make a change in my music playlists it will automatically change this in the other device?

There is actually a way via contacts, but not a convenient one.
You have to do it one by one for your existing bookmarks in Maps.
You need a Mac to seperate those "bookmark contacts" from your regular contacts.
I use this method now instead of the Maps bookmarks.
0. Make the necessary setting to sync your contacts with iCloud on your iOS devices (and your Mac if you want to use a "bookmark group")
1. Open a bookmark in Maps (or search for something) then click on the i-icon
2. Choose to put it in a new Contact (modify info as you like)
3. Add item for Notes with the text "bookmark"
This "bookmark contact" will now be synced through iCloud to your Mac and other iOS devices
I don't want my contacts to be cluttered with those "bookmark contacts", so I choose to create a seperate group
4. In addressbook on the Mac do a search for "bookmark"
5. select file --> New group from selection
6. after you've added additional "bookmark contacts" in Maps on your iPhone or iPad you have to search and select them and then drag them to your "bookmark group" in address book on the Mac

the apps will not be deleted if the itunes is authorised for the apple id from which you downloaded the apps.
for the songs if you have downloaded it from a store other than itunes an app "TuneAid" will help you. download the full version then you can copy all the songs on the ipad to ur itunes library

HT1386 MY COMPUTER SHOWS MY IPAD PLAYLIST BUT MY IPAD DOESN'T

I downloaded some cds and movies to my itunes account on my computer. I then synced my ipad. On the computer when I check my playlist on my ipad everything shows up. When i hit the itunes on my ipad, I dot not get any playlists. I only get the screen to purchase. what did I do wrong?

Also, it says that my available space on my ipad is now only 2.0 so it looks like it should have synced or downloaded - right?

[Web Player][Playlists] Sort Playlists in Browser

I have a Chromebook and thus use the web player exclusively now. Unfortunately, there is no way to organize and sort playlists or even songs within playlists within the brower version so my playlists are currently a mess. Would love to add sorting features to the web browser version.

HT1347 how do I import a playlist from my iPad to my itunes library on my computer please

Hi can someone please tell me how I can import a playlist from my iPad to my iTunes library on my computer please?

Itunes will only accept mp4 or m4v files. If the file is not this format either rerip it and convert to m4v or mp4 depending on your conversion software. You will also need to tag it explicitly as a movie so it ends up in the right place.
Personally I use Subler for that as it enables me to set The HD setting that shows up in itunes

How to transfer playlist lists to ipad

I have been able to transfer my iTunes music to my iPad but I do not see my playlist lists.
I clicked on "Entire music library" because I want all the music to get transferred. It appears to have happened just did not get the playlist list.

"I clicked on "Entire music library" because I want all the music to get transferred. It appears to have happened just did not get the playlist list."
I do not want selected playlist (I have tons). I want all the music and all the playlists on the iPad.
