Can i transfer iphone playlist to itunes

can i transfer iphone playlist to itunes

Hey everyone!!! I believe I'm on the right thread and I HOPE SO or an iPhone is about to become a trash weight. 
I am trying to figure out a way whereby when I add songs to a playlist via my iPhone and/or re-arrange the Playlist order, I am able to sync my iPhone to iTunes and have iTunes reflect the changes and/or additions I have made to the Playlist.  All of the music isn't necessarily purchased through the iTunes Store, however, they are all .mp3. 
I saw the successful feedback about exporting the playlist and then importing back, HOWEVER...
when I click on the right triangle to show my iPhone playlists; it mirrors iTunes.  For example, my playlist has 245 songs and iTunes is showing 237 (both on the playlist below the right triangle and in the Playlist section itself in iTunes.  So if and when I sync, I lose those 8 songs and have to go back and manually add to the playlist on the phone again and re-order etc.
What am I missing and is there a way to make changes on the iPhone and not lose everything during a sync.
I can't thank you enough for any help anyone has to offer!!!!!!!

  • Can't see iPhone playlist on iTunes

    I manually drag and drop songs onto my iPhone; however when I click on the iPhone icon in iTunes it just shows my entire song library and will not let me see the playlist on my phone. I know the songs are on my phone.
    When I went to sync up the iPhone with my computer I did get the "unable to load data class information from Sync Services" error message.
    Any thoughts on how to correct this issue?

    One thing that might help.
    Try updating to itunes 8.0.1.

    How can I transfer some of my Itunes songs from my computer to my husband's iphone?  He has a different apple ID and every time I do this, my IMac says it will erase and sync.  I've checked the manual manage box but no luck.

    Do I need my iPhone to do it or can I do it from iMac to iMac? Thanks for any help.
    So you have two different computers?
    Just enable Home Sharing and he can copy the songs from you iTunes to his then he can sync his iPhone to his iTunes.

  • HT1414 how can i transfer my apps from itunes of my computer to my iphone 3gs??

    how can i transfer my apps from itunes of my computer to my iphone 3gs??

    Which apps? The iPhone apps you have selected/purchased on the iPhone App Store thru iTunes?
    Or the apps installed on the Mac?
    For the first case, simply connect the phone, start up iTunes if it doesn't do so on its own accord, click on your phone's entry on the list in the left column, select the Summary tab to make sure all is well, then click on the Sync button on the bottom edge of the screen. If you want, you can click on the Apps tab and arrange your applications how you like them prior to the sync, too.
    If the second case, no can do. iPhone apps run on iPhones, Mac apps run on Macs.

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • How can I transfer apps from one iTunes library to another?

    How can I transfer apps from one iTunes library to another? My daughter has an iTouch, and I was managing it through my library. I have created an iTunes account for her, with a new iTouch, and would like to move the apps over. I tried to sync the old iTouch to the new library and it said it was already set up to sync with a different library. What is the best way to do this?

    You can transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    To make the new computer the syncing computer you have to:
    - Transfer iTunes purchases lIke I described above
    - Make a backup of the iPod on that computer by connecting the iPod and then right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
    - Restore the iPOd from that backup
    She will have to continue to use your iTunes ID to update the apps prchased with your account. To use her account she will have to log into the computer with her account (iTunes>Store) and change the sign in on the iPod by going to Settings>Store.

  • How can I transfer a playlist I have created to a cd?

    How can I transfer a playlist I have cated on my iPad to a cd for my wedding reception.  I feel it's safer than leaving my iPad behind the bar.

    You would insert a blank disc on your computer
    On iTunes you click the playlist you want to put on the disc
    Then find the button 'burn to disc'
    Click it and wait till it is done
    Then take out the disc
    Hope this helps :)
