Iphone create playlist add all songs

Since upgrading to iOS7.0.4 on my iPhone 4 I have to say I have been very frustrated and unhappy. Not only does my album art not match my songs after various syncs and deletes and resyncs, voice control keeps coming on to interrupt my music draining my battery. Now I am trying to create a new playlist and the functionality to add all songs in a search is gone meaning I have to click on every single song to add it rather than being able to add by artist or album all in one go. This is most annoying. My contract with Telus is almost up and I'm getting more and more tempted to go to a Samsung Galaxy as I find the bugs in the new iTunes iOS 7.0.4 are becoming a real pain.

The reason I need the On-The-Go playlist, is because I had my iPod on auto-sync, and checked the songs I wanted added to the iPod. But in my iTunes, I accidentally checked EVERYTHING. So now if I want to re-sync my iPod to include new songs I've added, I'll have to go BACK through and recheck those few thousand songs I had on my iPod, which will take me forever.
SO, if I can just create the On-The-Go playlist, it will transfer that to my iTunes, in which case I can just sync the playlist.
Yeah, I've even tried adding songs from other playlists. If it's a small playlist it works. I made a playlist with every song on my iPod. That didn't work. Is there a max for how big the On-The-Go playlist can be?

I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

I have an iphone 4s. I have a mac computer and a pc. Most of my itunes library is on my pc, but when I try to add music to my phone from my library on the pc, it won't let me do it. I CAN add music from my library that is on my mac, same account.

I CAN add music from my library that is on my mac, same account. My husband has the same problem with his iphone 4, but only uses pc.

My husband and I are using the same iTunes account on all mac & pc computers, but the libraries are different on each machine. We always manually manage our music (no auto sync). iTunes is up to date on the PCs. My husband uses our joint iTunes account on his pc, but once again, has a different collection in his library from those on the other machines. He can't load any music from his PC to his iphone 4. I can load music from my mac library to my iphone 4s, but cannot load from my pc library to my iphone 4s. How can I switch my main library that it syncs with from the mac to the pc?
Thanks

Imported music from a CD does add to library, stays in Recently Added playlist

Imported music from a CD does add to library, stays in Recently Added playlist.

Having the same problem. Album imported on CD won´t appear in my music on Itunes! It´s in the Itunes files and in the Recently Added folder, but it won´t appear!
I can play it from the outside file! So frustrating.

Trying to add playlist to iPhone. The current music on my iPhone is synced with another library. How do I add my playlist without erasing all of the music currently on my iPhone?

iPhone is designed to sync with one computer only, if you sync with another, all your content will be erased and replaced by whatever is on that computer.

How do I place tunes I have imported from CD into the appropriate playlists? I am running 10.9.5 on an iMac. I have 18,000 songs and 100+ playlists.It used to be easy on earlier iTunes versions. Now I can 't seem to be able to add songs or whole CDs

Remove songs from iPhone but not from playlist in 7.1

I use iTunes Match and I recently updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 7.1. Before 7.1, when in the music app and I wanted to delete a song from my phone i was able to swipe from right to left and delete the song from my phone but it would still remain in the playlist, only it would now show a cloud icon. Now in 7.1 when i swipe right to left and hit delete, it deletes the song from the playlist (song disappears) I am in and not from the phone, with no way to tehn add it to a playlist. Is there any way to go back to way it previously worked? How do I only delete a song from my phone withput removing it from a specific playlist?

My settings are to show that all music is on and I disagree. I used to be able to delete songs from the phone without removing them from a playlist. Maybe it was before iOS 7 but I def could do it. I would swipre and hit delete and the song would remain but now show a cloud icon.

How can I use home sharing between our iphones (create playlists from both accounts at once)

How can I use home sharing between our iphones, so that we can create playlists with songs from both of our libraries? We share a Macbook Pro (separate accounts) and each have the new iphone, but when I have my iphone and try to create a new playlist, I can only grab songs from one account. Is there a way to create a playlist using both accounts since we are sharing?
Does it have to be created within iTunes first on our Mac?

The short answer: because Home Sharing isn't designed for sharing apps, and apps aren't designed to be shared.
The longer answer: Think of it like this...
You download some music in iTunes. With Home Sharing, another user can listen to it by streaming it over the network. But the data itself is on your computer. If you turn off the computer or take it off the network, the other user can't access it.
But if you send another user the app, they aren't just streaming the data- they installed it on their iOS device. Because they weren't the one that purchased it, such a transfer could easily be considered "piracy" or "stealing," and nobody likes that (least of all, Apple).
When iTunes sees this app, it obviously recognized it, as if saying, "Hey, how did you get this app on your device, if I have no record of you purchasing/downloading it from the iTunes store?"

I have two apple id's one from my old laptop and one from my iPhone. I saved my iTunes library to my external hard drive and then tried to transfer it to my iMac. My music skips like a scratched cd now and I can't add any to my iPhone. Help please!

I have two apple id's one from my old laptop and one from my iPhone. I saved my iTunes library to my external hard drive right before my old mac laptop died and then tried to transfer it to my new iMac. Now when I try to play my old music it skips like a scratched cd. Also, now I can't add any music to my iPhone unless it was purchased recently through itunes and downloaded through icloud. I tried to "Organize" my library in hopes of correcting the problem but my iMac just ejects my external harddrive part way through. Please help!

Ejects the harddrive?
Of what did your old Mac die?
It sounds to me like you have some file corruption somewhere. Either in the transfer of your library to the external or the external itself is flaky if it keeps ejecting.

Is there a way to organise the files in itunes media into playlists? i have a large playlist that i wish to add to a hard drive but i don't want to have to look up each file location separately.

You cannot put music onto your iPod without using iTunes, that what iTunes is for.
It's also not a good idea to wipe the music from your computer and having it only on your iPod. We see countless posts here from people who have done just that - and then lost everything when the iPod needs a Restore. Even if you never need to Restore your iPod, what happens when you eventually replace the iPod? You'll be back here asking how to get the music from one iPod to another. That's not easy to do, we see countless posts about that too!
A much better idea is to buy an external drive (a proper external drive, not simply an iPod) and put your large amount of music onto that drive. Then point your iTunes Library to that drive. However, you need to remember two things:
You still need a backup of that Library.
Using an external drive as your iTunes Library means that the drive must be connected and ready to read before starting your iTunes programme. If it isn't, then iTunes will look on the C: drive - and you will find no music in your Library. (Once again, lots of posts about that as well!)

Deleted "recently added" playlist, how do i re add it?

Choose New Smart Playlist from the File menu and create a new smart playlist which lists items added in the last 2 weeks, excludes podcasts, and is live updated.

When trying to add a song to a playlist I don't see all playlists listed on my screen.

I am trying to add a song to one of my playlists. The name of it starts with an S and playlists with names that begin with A through P show on my screen only. When I click on add to playlist I only get A through P.

And no one could answer this question????? I am struggling for two hours with this problem and can't solve it.
I have several playlist folders. Here they are
Then when I try to organize and add some files from the library and I drag a song, I don't see all the playlists folders at the right side on my itunes screen. Here is the pic.
Do I have to change something in the settings that I am not aware of for other playlists to display? How do I solve this problem?

Zen Micro 5gb - Playlist on the fly with "add to selected" often does not work (AD HOC 'playlis

I've found ad-hoc playlist made from ADD TO SELECTED often does not work. Here are other issues:?. Does not add? at all OR only adds after first song selected played2. Cannot swith from ARTISTS to SONGS w/o killing list. This will kill the ongoing list.3. If I make mistake and hit the PLAY button, it wipes out the entire list I'd already made. Any of these issues resolved in Zen Vision M?

try reloading the firmware and if that doesnt work try opening the case and cleaning it if there is anything in there. the button may be stuck. and if that doesnt work i dont know what else to sugjest. it seemed to work for me.

When I listen to music on my iPhone and pause it, if I come back to it later, the playlist has started over. I have a 4S running on iOS 7.0.4. Is there any way to keep this from happening so that my playlist will start off where I last was?

TS3999 When I add events to my calendar on my mac, they do not show up on my iPhone, however; when I add events on my iPhone, they do show up on my mac... why do they not go both ways?

When I add events on my iphone calendar, they show up on my mac, but when I add events to my claendar on my mac, they do not show up on my iphone, why not?

Is this calendar labelled On My Mac or iCloud in the sidebar?
