Add to playlist problem on iTunes version 11.0.1 (12)?

Have tried adding various songs to various playlists on iTunes. No song was added to the selected playlists. These are existing playlists to which I have previously been able to add songs.
I tried rebooting. Same result.
Any ideas about how to proceed?

Thanks. That would be another way to do it. The method that was not working for me was right clicking on the song and then selecting "Add to playlist" from the popup menu.
Apple Care first had me try dragging and dropping the song to a popup list of playlists. That worked too.
To try to repair the right click method they had me remove a certain "plists" file from the library. It repopulated the playlists when iTunes was restarted but did not solve the problem.
The next suggestion was to delete and reinstall the operating system. I declined that invitation.
I'm satisfied dragging/dropping or now copying/pasting songs to playlists.

  • I can no longer add album art work in iTunes version 10.6.0.40

    WHY can I no longer add album art work in iTunes version 10.6.0.40? It is maddening. I have checked many boards and discussion groups but no one has a sure fix. Why is Apple not tending to this problem? They of all groups should know the importance of how something looks.

    I had the the same problem albeit with an m4v (same hardware and OS rev too!, iTunes 10.6.3). I was able to add the movie to a new library per Limnos' suggestion here, indicating that iTunes wasn't totally busted. However, I was also able to see the movie in the Recently Added smart playlist (another hat tip to Limnos), although it still did not appear in the Movies section of my iTunes library. (It was also in the iTunes Library.xml file.)
    So I called AppleCare, and they directed me to move the file from the external drive where it was living, into the /Users/<Your Name Here>/Movies directory, and to "Add to Library" (Command-O) from that location. Sure enough (and much to my surprise), it showed up immediately (duplicated, actually) in the Movies section of my iTunes library. Subsequent additions to my Library have not misbehaved similiarly.

    Anybody else having problems installing itunes version 11 on a MacBook Pro? Is so, how can they be resolved?

    You need to tell us exactly what messages you are seeing.
    You posted this in the OSX 10.4 forum but your computer profile says you are running OSX 10.6.8  Which system version you are running makes a big difference.

  • When I add a playlist file in iTunes, they do no appear in my library but do appear in the playlist

    Hi all.
    Not been on here in ages so please be gentle!
    Just a question with itunes. Im using lion and everything is updated. If i have a folder with music files in it and a playlist file, if I drag the playlist file into itunes it will appear under the playlist heading with all of the files there. However if I goto my library and look for the files, they do not appear.
    Is this normal, I can't say I ever remember this happening before!
    Thanks for your help!

    I found a work around by manually adding each song in the order I want to the shuffle.  As long as I disconnect the iPod without ejecting or syncing, it will stay in the order I want.  I have also discovered that when I create new playlists, I have the same problem with the alphabetical order of artists.  Is there a setting I may be missing?

  • Is there a way to add a playlist to your itunes library without adding the songs to your library?

    All I want to do is add a playlist full of songs to my itunes so I can use it with djay, I don't want the songs forever in my library or automatically syncing with my ipods.

    No.

  • How do I add a playlist from my itunes library to a friends ipod?

    How do I add one playlist from my library to their ipod, if possible? Without deleting or replacing any of their music with mine.

    You don't. When you purchase music that gives you the right to listen to it, not give it away to others.

  • Smart Playlist problems after iTunes upgrade 10.6.1.7

    Hi, I updated my version of iTunes to 10.6.1.7 and since then my smart playlists are not syncing to my iPhone properly. The selection of songs is scrambled, and so I have a variety of my top rated, audiobooks and other random songs. I have tried removing and resyncing the smart playlists to my iphone, but this has the same outcome. Also, the sync doesn't complete all stages so I end up with roughly half of my music from my smart playlist on my iPhone.
    Not sure if this is an iTunes problem or iPhone problem, but it definitely only started after I upgraded iTunes.
    Any others out there with the same issue or any suggestions?

    Yepper.. got the same issue.. it is not sync'ing my Itunes play lists to my I pod touch.

  • Cannot Add File to Library in iTunes version 7

    (prenote: I have completed the 5 R's)
    I do not seem to be able to add a file to the iPod with the Add File function like I used to in version 6 of iTunes. I now have to Import File for the podcasts and mp3's which I would like to add. Then, when these are imported to my library, the iPod begins having difficulty being recognized by iTunes.
    Is there an update coming for v. 7 ??

    no response from any one.

  • Problems with iTunes Version 6

    Please forgive me if this is a repeat of any kind. I searched on this issue and received way too many responses (mostly irrelevant!). When I try to launch certain radio stations in Version 6. It is sometimes difficult to even bring th station up. I sometimes have to click a dozen times to launch a station. Also, there is no meta data in the Player Window for may of the stations. I have a friend who has Version 4 and everything works great! The same stations I have trouble launching in Version 6, start right up in his Version 4.Also, meta data in that version 4 works for ALL stations!Does anyone know how to resolve these problems?

    Hi beatlepat,
    You might want to experiment with the buffer size settings to improve radio reliability. The settings are in iTunes Preferences -> Advanced tab. Try each of the possible "Streaming buffer" sizes to see if any of them reduce the frequency.
    Also, make sure your QuickTime Connection Speed is one setting lower than the rate claimed for your Internet link. This setting is in QuickTime Control Panel, exit iTunes before changing the setting.
    Good luck!

  • Recover a deleted playlist in latest iTunes version

    Hi
    I accidentally deleted my burned MP3 playlist from iTunes and how do I recover it to burn some other MP3 CDs to give as a gift to my friends? I do not want to add songs again because there are very many songs in the playlist. Please help.
    Thank you very much

    If you notice your accidental deletion immediately, go to the Edit menu and use the Undo.
    If it is too late for that, I think the only way is to copy the files back in from the burned disc.

  • Dragging tracks into playlists/ within playlists suddenly a problem (itunes version 12.1.2)

    I updated to 12.1.2 april 15 (its may 4 today) and literally all of a sudden this morning I cannot drag and drop any tracks into playlists, within playlists, or to devices. I can add with the right click menu option but cannot drag. I have OS X 10.10.3 and I have not made any changes to the operating system or computer. I searched google and the itunes forum and can't find any explanation that applies to my situation. Why is this happening and what can I do to fix it as quickly as possible?

    i don't know... its about the most frustrating random itunes problem i've ever experienced. i still have no idea why it spontaneously started malfunctioning but i managed to "fix" it by restarting my computer... i have no idea why that seems to have worked. i saw it on a similar but not necessarily applicable thread and thought it was worth a shot before spending the next hour or so troubleshooting with apple. just looking at all the boards today trying to figure out how to fix this particular issue, there are literally so many different similar cases of so many problems with itunes that its become clear they need to start fresh... anyway, maybe see if a restart helps resolve the click and drag issue for you. good luck.
