Do you mean from library to your playlist, right?
Try to create a new playlist (not smart playlist), open iTunes ->Files-> New playlist. Then drag the songs from the library to the new playlist

  • Burning tracks from iPod Playlist

    Hi all,
    The time has come to get my 50Gb of music off my powerbook and keep my library entirely on my iPod Photo 60Gb.
    Before I make the leap I wanted to check if it's still possible to burn cds of playlists stored on your iPod? I can remember I used to be able to do this under older versions of iTunes but I cant find any mention of this feature now.
    Can anyone shed any light? Any help greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Drew

    You can't burn directly from your iPod. If the playlists are in iTunes you can burn them from there

  • Burn CD from iPod playlist?

    I'm listening to some songs I ripped from my purchased CDs on my work PC - the library file these tracks were initially added from is on my home PC. Along the way, I made a playlist in iTunes and saved this playlist on my iPod for later listening. Since I listen to music in my car, I'd also like to burn the files in that playlist to a CD, however since I'm using song files stored on my iPod it's not letting me burn them to CD, even though they are DRM-free MP3 files I ripped from my own CDs.
    Is there a way to work around the asinine "copy guard" BS that's part of iTunes so I can use MY music the way I want? Thanks in advance!

    So... I can't burn to a CD from my iPod - I'll need to copy the files to my PC to do that.
    Oh, wait... whoops, I forgot - I can't even COPY the files from my iPod to the second PC from that iPOd without a third-party application...
    That sounds like a DRM issue to me, seeing as how it's in no way a TECHNICAL issue. it's an artificial limitation imposed on my file usage by the software. Grrr.
    But I see what you're saying - without the files being on the PC that created the initial Library file (my home PC), I cannot burn a CD. At least I'll be able to take the Playlist I made and saved on my iPod and use it as the burn list on my home PC, correct?
    Thanks for the Product Feedback link - not thatit will do me any good I assume, but at least I'll go on record as being dis-satisfied with the service. If enough people complain maybe things will change. Appreciate it!

  • Burning CDs from iTunes Playlist

    After the burning process is complete and I test the burnt Cd for playback; I get the message "you have inserted a blank disc" I am using blank audio cds that have been ok in the recent past. Can anyone help please?

    You will probably want to check out the following:

    It should answer most of your questions very thoroughly.
    With regard to your question about the iTMS music contained on the audio CD, the DRM is removed when you burn purchased/protected content to audio CD. You are limited in terms of how many times you can burn the same playlist when purchased/protected content is part of it, etc.

  • I am trying to burn some cds from my playlist on itunes, but my playlist shows many of my songs in light print and says that it will not burn because it is not a file, these are all songs I have purchased quite a while ago, how do i get them to files?

    If they were songs you purchased from itunes, try redownloading them from your purchases...
    if that doednt work, make sure the optuon to copy files to itunes media folder is checked in settings, then find and download from the net. and re-add them to your library

  • I can no longer burn CDs from my iTunes (Macintosh) playlists. The format shows up as m4a - which never used to happen.  Can you help?  Thanks.

    I can no longer burn CDs from my iTunes (Macintosh) playlists.  The songs are now formatted as m4a, which might be making them unreadable by my CDs, although this never used to happen before.  Can you help?  Thanks very much.

    After you select Burn, you need to select AudioCD in the pop-up window.

  • Burning CDs from playlist problem

    I have tried to burn CDs from my Itunes playlist, but all I am getting is a disc for each song with the MusicMatch logo, track number and a 1KB...I have tried to uninstall MusicMatch to no avail. And even before I got Itunes, I could not access MusicMatch. Is there a conflict between the two causing the problem? As a matter of fact I can't burn anything even using Sonic and Nero. Help!

    If I'm guessing correctly, you've successfully burned an Audio CD. Use a program taht reads Audio CDs (iTunes, MusicMatch, Windows Media Player, etc.), and you'll be fine.

  • Burning cds from Itunes

    Cannot burn cds from itunes purchased cds or itunes playlists

    Hi Queenv77,
    Whether or not the track infomation shows up on a burned CD depends on if you are creating an Audio CD or an MP3 CD; track information is not available on audio CDs. The following articles have more information regarding burning CDs from iTunes:

  • Why cant i burn cds from icloud?

    why can't i burn cds from itunes in the cloud?

    If you mean from iTunes Match without having them on your hard drive, then that's because they aren't on your hard drive.

  • When I try to burn music from my Playlist to a blank CD, the notification tells me that the list has too many minutes for the CD, even if I try to burn just one song. What's going on?

    WHEN I TRY TO BURN MUSIC FROM MY PLAYLIST TO A BLANK CD, THE NOTIFICATION COMES UP AND TELLS ME I AM EXCEEDING THE NUMBER OF MINUTES THE CD WILL HOLD. THIS NOTIFICATION HAPPENS EVEN IF I TRY TO BURN JUST ONE SONG. WHAT'S GOING ON?

    Katy, you are completely doing things in the wrong order.  You can't burn songs if you can't even play them, and iTunes can't play them if it can't find them. 
    The exclamation point normally occurs if the song file, or one of its containing folders, has been moved, renamed or deleted.  So if you encounter a track with an exclamation point, don't do anything else until you find the file.  It is usually somewhere else on your hard drive, or else in the Recycle bin.  Failing both of those, get it from your most recent backup.
    After your restore it, make sure it can play.  If it can play you can put it into a playlist.  Then you can burn the playlist.

  • Burning CDs from I-tunes

    When I burn CDs from Itunes, and rip them to my other PC, the track names and other info dont transfer? How can I resolve this issue?

    If you want track names to display when you're playing a cd, go to Preferences > Advanced > Burning > Check Include Cd Text. I don't believe these info will carry over if you created a MIX cd, however. If it's just a copy of a commercial cd and such, it may find it, however.

  • Burning CDs from Playlist causes problem

    Whenever I burn a CD from a playlist, I get a Windows error window in my application bar but it really doesn't display and the cursor changes to an hourglass that's spinning. The only way to fix the cursor is to reboot.
    Anyone else have this problem? I've had it for the last couple of itunes software iterations including the latest, 7.0.2
    Thanks very much for your help

  • Probs burning CDs using iPod tracks.

    Hi everyone
    I'm a bit of a technophobe and am having probs with my ipod. I am trying to make my own CDs using songs that are stored on my iPod. Can anyone help with step by step instructions because I am really struggling.
    I have tried moving them from iPod into the library but it won't let me.

    Hello dannytj,
    You can only burn your songs to a CD on iTunes, therefore, you must copy all songs on your iPod to the iTunes on your PC.
    Try and download and install a 3rd party software e.g. Yamipod
    http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/
    Once it has been completed, create a playlist on your iTunes, and move the songs you want to burn to the playlist, open the iTunes -> preference -> Advance -> first select the Disk format e.g. Audio Cd (which can play with most cd players but holds around 10-16 songs only) or MP3 CD (it can only play on CD players compatitable with MP3 only) which can hold around 90 songs.
    Once everything has ready, just click the butoon BURN CD at the right hand corner of iTunes
    Post here if you need further helps

  • Burning CDs from music in my PC Music Libr

    I cannot figure out how to burn CDs for use in my car and home from music that I transferred to my PC Music Library. When I try to select songs from the library in the source view and drop them into the dri've for my PCs CD-burner, it says that I am not allowed to do this? Can anyone please provide some guidance?

    MediaSource has a BurnCD module for some of the products. Click the button at bottom right corner of MediaSource to display a destination panel. Click the dropdown header of the destination panel to see whether a BurnCD module is available. If so, you can burn Audio CD and MP3 CD.

  • Can't burn CD from iTunes playlist because of ERROR "2131"

    Well, as my topic says I can't burn cd's from my playlists. That really suck.
    I allways get error "2131". Does somebody know what that error is or what I should do to get the burning-thing working??
    Thanks for all help!

    Okay..this error does not exist anymore.
    I searched on "2131" in this forum and then found a link to where I could download some "uppgrade"-thing.
    When I did that the problem was gone
