Can I see what Playlist my song is in by holding Option

I just read in Mac Life mag that using Address Book I can hold the option key and see what groups a contact is in - they are highlighted in Yellow. Cool, so how can I see what Playlist my Song is in using iTunes? I bet this would be a fantastic feature and one millions of people would welcome. What do you say - is there a way? A secret way?

Hi John,
Control click the track/Show in Playlist. Might be able to right click also depending on your mouse.

How do I easily find out what playlist my songs are in?

I'm an iTunes novice and have about 3000 songs on my computer. I've put most of them on playlists but compared some numbers and discovered that there are a couple hundred stragglers that I haven't put on playlists.
Is there a way to quickly/easily see what playlist my songs are in? It would be great to have a "view" option column showing playlists. I know I can right-click on each individual song and do "show in playlist," but that's a real pain in the neck when you're dealing with thousands of songs.
I'm open to any suggestions!

Welcome to AD!
All I can think of, is a smart playlist 'match all' where
playlist is not playlist1
playlist is not playlist2,
etc
except.....you need to leave out the main playlist, Music, from that

From your backup that is in iTunes or in iCloud or resync them from your computer.

Thanks.

Thank you Winston. I guess we need to ask that this feature gets added at least as an option in an upcoming release. When someone is using shuffle, it helps to know what is playing while viewing pictures.
Where is my Apple request button when one needs it ? :-) Cheers, C

I can't see my playlists on the iPod nano (7th generation)

I can’t see my playlists on the iPod nano (7th generation), but I can see and play them on the iTunes on my laptop. What do I do?

Hi lone_dreamr,
This is going to depend on how you are syncing music to your iPod nano. If you are automatically syncing, what option do you have selected in this menu? (Entire music library, or Selected content)
You may want to uncheck the "Sync Music" box, apply the changes, then recheck the box, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPod, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.
If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following articles:

How can I see what is on iTunes match

how can I see what is on iTunes match?

Hi,
Open iTunes on your computer, add iCloud status to song view. This will tell you if a track has been matched, uploaded or purchased.
If you have match turned on on your phone you will see all the music that you have in the cloud.

How can I see what I'm actually video recording on iPad Air so that I don't include extra stuff at the borders of the image? It seems to automatically "zoom in" on the screen, but when I export the video, the picture isn't framed well.

When I try to record a video on the Ipad Air, the screen automatically "zooms in" closer than when I'm taking a photo. So I frame the interview and record it. But when I export it to post it or edit it, I discover that only the screen was zoomed in, the camera wasn't, so I have all this extra stuff around the edges of my frame.
I don't need to zoom in, but I do need to be able to see what I'm shooting--otherwise, as I'm videotaping, I'm guessing at my picture's framing. But every time I switch from photo to video mode, the screen "zooms in." How can I see what I'm actually recording?
I've been searching for an answer for this for a while, but I can't find any responses to it! Thanks.

HT4910 I have a simple question or 2. 1) how can I see what is on my icloud and how do I edit the data if I do not want it on icloud. 2) I have an app that I would like to update data - it doesn't appear to be doing that, how can I fix that? It is the mob

1) how can I see what is on my icloud and how would I edit the data that is on it?
2) I am having problems with an app syncing data with pc - how can I fix that? It is mobile noter.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can see what's in iCloud collectively at settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage.... You can only edit the data through the appropriate app (contacts, calendars etc)
For problems with 3rd party apps, contact the developer.

How can I see what is in my iCloud and on iPad and remove some stuff on on iPod mini

How can I see what is in my iCloud and maybe remove some from my iPad mini

You have to sign into your iCloud account at icloud.com from a computer to view your iCloud data. Also, be careful not to delete data from your phone that is being synced to iCloud or it will delete if from iCloud too. (For example, if you delete a contact from your phone with Settings>iCloud>Contacts set to On it will remove the contact from iCloud too.)

How can I see what has been backed up

After doing a category BU to my WD Passport Ultra, how can I see what was backed up? The Smartware tells me that what I selected was done.But how and where can I confirm this? Thanksgrowlybear

Simplest way is to open the drive in Windows Explorer, then in the root you should find a folder WD Smartware.stor. Within that should be a folder for each device you've backed up, and within that a folder for each drive on that device that you've backed up. Within those drive folders you should find the files/folders that have been backed up from that particular drive. You can look through them in the same way that you look through the files/folders on your actual drive itself, and confirm that everything is there that you expect to be.

You can see all of your data from within the apps on your device that are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, reminders, notes, etc.). You can also see some of it on icloud.com.
To get an idea what is using your storage, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage.

How can I see what is on my cloud?

How can I see what is on my cloud? Also, I keep getting asked to manage storage when I am watching videos that I have bought through the store. I have bought lots of cloud space only half of which is used. Is my device too full of pictures or videos and how do I know if they are on the cloud or stored on the I tunes store where I bought them from?

How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.
 Cheers, Tom
