Artwork in 'Create playlist'

What I want is as I have the grid listing - artwork and details, playing order, timing, artist, name - just as I see it in the grid, but with everything in its right order- which it isn't at present.. Dragging doesn't seem to change the order so I have created playlists but seem to lose the artwork this way.
Am I missing something or simply looking for the impossible?
So far my newbie queries have been sorted. Here's hoping again.
Thanks.

Start here: Grouping tracks into albums.
Each playlist can have its own choice of view, list, album list, grid or cover flow, and within each view there is semi-independent control of which columns are displayed and used for sorting. Album by Artist should give you a sensible order. If you want a manual order sort on the left-most column of numbers and then drag things to where you want them.

I created Playlists on iPod App for my iPad 2. After a recent sync my Playlists I created and saved were gone! Why? What do I need to do to Save those Playlist so theynare not lost nduring sync. THANK YOU

I created Playlist on my iPad (iPod App).....but they disappeared after sync process with my laptop. Why?
What should I have done so they don' t go way?
Doesn't make sense to redo them every time.

Is there a "New" button at the top right of the Playlists section of Music?
There is no Edit button to delete music, swipe sideways on the song to reveal the delete button. Tap and hold on the artwork in Artists and albums to reveal the (X) button to delete. Or connect the iPad back up to iTunes on the computer and check your sync settings for music to ensure you are syncing the right content.

How can I have an album play ONLY when I choose it from my created playlist and NOT on my ipod's library?

I have a spoken word album on my Ipod Touch (4th gen) that I don't want playing when I shuffle through my library. I just want to play it from the created playlist I made for it. If I uncheck this album, would that work or would that only make me have to manually tell it to play each chapter from the playlist?

I think it can't find the right or any artwork and ends up putting junk in there.
And can happen with artist and other tags.
probably fine with commercial media but otherwise....? I think you have to manaully go in and edit
I also don't like how it handles and stores non-Apple iTunes store content.

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?"

Does anyone know how to create playlists step by step?

I am currently using Musicmatch as I found Itunes a bit fiddly but happy to change back if this helps me - may need help with moving them across!
I really want to setup playlists but I'm having a big problem. I have set my IPOD to manual update.
When I setup a playlist, I set it up directly on my IPOD drive within MusicMatch, right click new playlist (not in the playlist library within Musicmatch then sync them).
I thought doing this would mean my IPOD would see it and I wouldn't have to sync my IPOD each time when I load it up to the PC - then I and drag and drop songs to the IPOD playlist but they never appear in the new playlist and just duplicate in my first playlist (which has all my songs in it)- I end up with 2 of everything.
I read on my instructions that I can create playlists without a PC so directly on my IPOD I presume) by navigating to the song using the wheel then selecting the song till it flashes. When I try to select playlists from my menu - playlist is never there.
Am I being stupid? I have Win XP with 4th gen IPOD - haven't updated any software - do I need to do that?
Please help - I keep running out of battery by jumping around to the songs I want to hear! I don't want to put anymore on there now as its already a nightmare getting through the 600 songs!

There is no such thing as an international iTunes account.
If the iTS is available to a particular country and you qualify - address and credit card from that country - you can open an iTS account and shop from the selecton available to that store.

I have always been able to create playlists on itunes, then drag them to my ipod when it was plugged into the mac. I recently downloaded the latest version of itunes, and now I am unable to do that. I am able to drag songs and albums but not my playlists.

I have always been able to create playlists on itunes, then drag them to my ipod when it is plugged into the mac. I recently downloaded the latest version of itunes, and now am unable to do that. I can drag songs and albums to the ipod, but not my playlists. It used to be so easy, am I missing something here?

Plug your iPod into your computer, it will begin to sync. Now check to see if the playlists have been added.
If not, go to the songs tab under your iPod when it is connected to iTunes, Unless you have checked "Sync all songs (or something to those words)" you should have an option on what you can put on your iPod. Make sure to check the playlists that you want on your iPod.

I have downloaded all my music from the cloud to my new iPhone and created playlists so I can listen to it when not it wifi like when on a plane. If I turn on iTunes Match will I still have this music still downloaded?

I have downloaded all my music from the cloud to my new iPhone and created playlists so I can listen to it when not it wifi like when on a plane. If I turn on iTunes Match will I still have this music still downloaded? The online information suggests all my music will be replaced. Will I have to download it again??

What you have on your computer is your iTunes library, not an iTunes "account." The account that is related to iTunes is your Apple ID, which you use to sign in to the iTunes Store and make purchases. It is also used with iCloud. iPods (that are not iPod touch) are associated with your iTunes library, not to your Apple ID.
So, I think you probably just need to set up (or update) automatic syncing for the iPod. If it's not set up to sync those new songs, iTunes still syncs the iPod, but it syncs nothing
In iTunes, if the sidebar (along left side of iTunes window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. In the sidebar, the iPod appears under DEVICES, when it is connected.
Select the iPod in iTunes. There is a row of buttons, starting with Summary. Click on Music next to Summary. This is the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
Check the box for Sync Music (if it's not already checked). If your iTunes music library fits completely on the iPod, you can choose to sync Entire music library. Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. On the lists below, checkmark the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres that you want on the iPod. When you click Apply, the songs from your selection sync to the iPod.
One convenient way to set this up (if you can't sync the entire iTunes music library) is to create a new playlist in your iTunes library. Name it "iPod Songs" (or whatever you want). Put ALL songs that you want on the iPod on this playlist, including those new songs. Back on the iPod's Music screen in iTunes, select this playlist under Playlists. Going forward, to update songs on the iPod, just update that playlist in your iTunes library (add/remove songs). The next time you connect the iPod (or click the Sync button), iTunes automatically syncs the same changes to the iPod.

Anyone know how to restore the itunes created playlists?

In a fit of stupidity, I deleted the itunes created playlists(purchased music, recently played, etc.). I was just wondering if anyone knew how to get those back on my source list, and also on my ipod mini. I tried to go the smart playlist route, but there is no criteria for recently played or purchased music. Any help would be greatly appreciated:)
Thanks

"I tried to go the smart playlist route, but there is no criteria for recently played or purchased music"
Sure there is....
For 'Recently Played', you can:
1) 'Last Played' 'is in the last' xx days/weeks/months OR
2) Uncheck the 'Match' condition and check the 'Limit' condition to however many songs/GBs/hours selected by 'most recently played'
For Purchased Music:
Match 'Kind' contains 'Protected'
Recreate the Smart Playlists yourself. Name them anything you desire.

Can't get itunes to create playlist using songs on ipod

How do I integrate the songs on my ipod with the itunes on my new computer without losing my downloads? I successfully authorized my new computer (Windows XP) for my itunes account. When I access my account on the new computer it shows all the songs that are on my ipod (downloaded from old computer) but they are in faint print and I cannot play them or create playlists. Every time I log on, it asks me if I want to copy the songs from the new computer onto the ipod. I tried this once and it wiped out all my other songs. Luckily, I still had the old computer and was able to retrieve my music.

You need to connect the iPod to the original computer. Open Preferences and select the iPod tab. Choose "manually manage songs and playslists."
You need to do it on the computer you want to manually manage songs on, not the original computer.
You will now be able to create the playlists on another computer.
As stated abive, you will hav to set this on teh new computer, not the original.
Also, you don't even need an iPod conected to create or manange playlists on the computer.
If you want to create and manage playlists on the iPod you obviously will need to connect it to a computer.
But doing this only on the iPod is not a good idea because if theiPod crashes, you lose them.
Create them in iTunes and sync them to the iPod.

Hi,
Check Finder>Preferences>Sidebar, is it checked there to show external drives?

Can you create playlists from network shared iTunes libraries?

I have a file server in my basement running XP Pro SP2 which is set to share it's rather large iTunes Library. I also have a laptop which is set to look for shared libraries. That all works fine. I would LIKE to create playlists on the laptop FROM the shared library broadcasting from my fileserver. I would like to be able to sync my wife's iPod on the laptop utilizing the songs on the fileserver, also of course using the shared library and playlist created from them.
Now, I attempted to "Add Folder To Library" by pointing iTunes to the shared music directory on the fileserver... no dice. For whatever reason, iTunes only adds about one sixth of the music.
I also attempted to export the iTunes Library as a text file into a shared playlist directory and then import the playlist into the laptop. Also no dice.
I also read a prior post which suggests that you set iTunes to organize and add files to the iTunes library upon importing... but that effectively doubles the size of the library.
So I'm at a loss. There's got to be a way to do this thing. No?
~( ):>

Good point... perhaps mapping the drive will help. To make a long story longer, I added folders... one at a time like you suggested. One specific directory (which included a few hundred subdirectories) kept missing files. I'm not really sure why it was doing that. So, I determined a few of the files it was missing and drilled down and added the specific albums. Boom, they were added. It would however take me until 2035 to do that for every album, hence my post.
This is NOT a gigabit network I am running, so I wont know if the drive mapping does anything until... probably morning. iTunes is adding the files as I type. I'll post back the results though. Thanks.

How do you create playlists in iTunes 11

Hi all...
I'm very frustrated with itunes 11.
Before I would create playlists( usually smart playlist) going by Band/Artist. I could then select the playlist and it would play through all the albums for the particular artist. And once it gets to the end of the albums and last song... It would just go back to the initial album and play through again.
I don't understand this... But I can't seem to create a playlist like I used to create them. I'm completely lost. Can anyone help me with this problem.
Thanks!!

If you click View > Sidebar you will see your playlists in the left hand side.
The process to create a playlist or Smart playlist is the same as before. File > New > Playlist
When you have created your playlist you can drag, Songs, Albums, Artists and genres like you used to.

Thanks Gary for your reply, But its all hell process. previously i have samsung galaxy phone its very easy to create playlists of songs that i like. Nokia or windows sucks..... i am getting all unwanted songs when i added songs to add now playing and worst thing is i cannot delete unwanted songs from the playlist. Its all mess. and the worst thing is the volume control it is same for music and ringtone, if we reduce the sound while listening to songs it reduces the volume of the phone ringtone which leads to missed calls.

How do I create playlists on my ATIV SE from music I synced?

I have synced my music from AMAZON MP3s, but I can't seem to make playlists on my ATIV SE. I changed from Android, which was very simple to create playlists on my phone. I see the prompt to "save to playlist" but it's only one song each time. Should I have created playlists on my laptop and downloaded them? This is the only problem I am having!!!!

Toshidkg We don't want you to have any problems with saving the playlist. When you select a song to add to a playlist, do you have an option to create a name for that playlist?

How to create playlist of party shuffle from CD?

I had moved all my gigabytes of songs into a DVD to free up some space. How do i create playlist of party shuffle from the DVD?
I guess the answer is NO. Any workaround?

You can't create a playlist within the shuffle itself. It has to be created in iTunes first, then synced across.
