Can one create a smart playlist for multiple podcasts and to play one after the other on your iPod? I want to combine podcasts of the same topic in a smart playlist. When I tried to do this I chose smart playlist, album starts with, and then did it again for each podcast I wanted. That didn't work. If it can be done how do you do it?
I have a fifth generation iPod which is always updated to the latest as well as the itunes.

Say for example I want to put different car related podcasts in one smart playlist. Car related podcasts such as Wall Street Journal Car Cast and NPR Car Talk. Can it be done and if so how?

How can I create a smart playlist of least played complete albums?

Hi,
How can I create a smart playlist of least played complete albums? (of a specific genre, say jazz)
What I would like to do is to have a playlist that will always automatically pull the least played albums of a specific genre (ideally, but not necessarily, with a random album play within that playlist) Hope you are getting the concept!
Thank you for any idea!
Daniel
p.s. there have been solutions for earlier versions of iTunes, none working with iTunes 10 apparently

As you say, you can't access the Gapless property in a smart playlist rule.
The obvious way that comes to mind would be to create another playlist with stuff to exclude from your final list and put the gapless tracks and anything else that won't filter out easily into it.
Yes you say but I have oodles of gapless tracks and I don't want to gather them up by hand.
OK, so you'll need a script. Here is one I've just created for the purpose: GaplessToPlaylist

Can we create a single bdc for raw materials , and for some other transacti

hi
can we create a single bdc for raw materials , and for some other transaction? how?

Hi Jyothsna
For one transaction you will have to build your bdc table according to the recording for that transaction and then call that transaction using the bdc table. For another transaction , you will again have to build the bdc table with the details of that transaction.
You cannot call all at one shot.
Cheers

Can't create a smart playlist of podcasts in iOS 7?

I've got to iPhone 4Ss, one on iOS 6, the other on iOS 7. On the iOS6 device, I have created a Smart Playlist that contains my podcast subscriptions for the last two weeks. This playlist is the major use of my iPhone. However, on the iOS 7 device, The Recent Podcast playlist is there in the Music app, but it is empty. Is iOS 7 forcing me to listen to podcasts only through the useless Podcasts app?

Can we creat an Apple ID for multiple users?

I work for a company where we are rolling out iPads in big amounts. The problem is that they all need an Apple ID in the training they get about the iPad they receive because they have to install MobiControl on it.
It's no problem to let them create an Apple ID at home, but they have to fill in credit card numbers once they connect at work when they try to install apps. That's the problem... Not everyone want's or has credit cards...
Maybe it's possible to create an Apple ID for multiple users???
Thanks!

You may find a better answer in this part of the forum, since it's meant for situations like you're in.
http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
is also info about apple ID's.
You can make apple ID's without a credit card, you just have to jump through a couple of hoops to do it since the default is that people will always give a credit card. The key to making an ID without a credit card is that you try to download a free app first, then follow the 'make an ID' prompt. That will get you the 'none' option for payment.

Can I create a smart playlist based on # of tracks?

One hit wonders!
I have a lot of single tracks by artists and would like to create a playlist of these. There doesn't seem to be a sort option based on the # of tracks, so I'm not sure how to proceed.
Basically, i want to identify all the artists with only 1, 2 or "x" # of tracks in my library, then build my best one-hit wonder playlist.
I thank you! Along with Kajagoogoo, Toni Basil and Flock of Seagulls.

SERIOUSLY!!! I was pretty shocked when I realized iTunes DJ isn't on my iPhone. It seems like it should be, seeing as 1) it's one of the main perks/rewards of going through the hassle of rating all your songs, and 2) for many people (including myself) most music listening time is spent on their iDevices (listening in the car, at work, etc.). So the fact that it's not there to be utilized is pretty weird and slightly upsetting. Also the DJ mix should sync between iDevice and computer so you can continue listening to the same list going to and from home.

How can I create a search plugin for multiple fields

There are a number of sites that have search capabilities but they require entries into multiple fields.
One such site is for instance the IBM Employee directory.
(http://www.ibm.com/contact/employees/servlets/lookup)
On this site - in order to get usable results - I have to enter both First name and Last name of the employee I'm looking for.
I created a search plugin for the site, however I wasn't able to split the entered text into two parts and provide them as separate fields for the form.
Is there a way to do this?
Regards,
Imre

Hi,
This is excellent. Not search-plugin though but but this is as good as a search-plugin. (Even better, as I haven't seen any solution with the plugins for the problem.)
I didn't know that it was possible to use javascript as bookmark location.
Thanks,
Imre

Can I create a smart playlist on my iPhone without using iTunes first?

I often find myself on my iPhone, away from my computer, wanting to further refine the currently playing smarlist, say only play tracks with three stars or more. It would be nice to have this, or just iTunes DJ (iPhone DJ?) on my iPhone, with an option to play higher rated songs more often.

Need help creating a smart playlist with multiple rules

I'd like to make a smart playlist that:
has the word 'Anime' in its Name, or Album title
has the word 'Cover' in its Album title
does not have the word 'OST' in its Album title
Thanks in advance!

Create a new smart playlist, click the + symbol, then the second ellipsis ... then the last + symbol. This will give you the rule structure as shown below, edit the parts accordingly.

Can I create a Smart Collection for images with Paths?

I'd like a folder that automatically collects any image i have in my library in which i've drawn a vector clipping path in Photoshop. Is this possible?

I couldn't figure that out.
I was hoping the file would contain a metadata call that said "Path: yes" or something like that on which I could set up the smart collection but I couldn't find one either in Lightroom or Finder.
It's possible this piece of metadata doesn't exist, and if so I'll solve my problem with keywords, but I wanted to ask before i assumed.

Can I create a smart podcast playlist for my iPod?

I'm trying to find a way to create a smart podcast playlist that will work on my iPod. I'm able to do this in iTunes, but when I sync my iPod, the playlists don't transfer. Right now I've got two playlists in a new folder, and I can't even find the folder under my playlists tab in my iPod.
I've seen some pretty lengthy work-arounds that require you to create a separate playlist for each podcast, and then combining all of those playlists together into a new playlist. But it can't be that complicated, can it?

Thank, that took care of it. I guess I just assumed that I'd be able to organize podcasts in the folders under the Playlist tab. It's weird that it won't let us do that.

Removed from iTunes 10? Smart Playlist of all podcasts

Hi all,
I was able to create a smart playlist of all podcasts in iTunes 9, however I don't see the option in iTunes 10.
Basically I'd like all my podcasts to add automatically to a smart playlist.
See "Get smart playlists" here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/
I hope this feature wasn't killed, it's really handy for those of us with shuffles.
Thanks,
-sasha

Would that be "Plimsouls" as in "The Plimsouls"? Loved them, especially at the "cool club" in the movie Valley Girl.
Nope, its a reference to a great blues-rock song performed by The Jeff Beck Group (w/ Rod Stewart on vocals) circa 1967 from the album "Truth".

Cannot create Smart Playlist for tracks to upgrade using iTunes Match

I just subscribed to iTunes Match and am trying to use a Smart Playlist to identify the tracks that can be upgraded following the instructions in this article:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1163620/how_to_upgrade_tracks_to_itunes_match_fa st.html
When I try to create the smart playlist, I get "This smart playlist contains one or more conditions which are empty or conflict with each other. This will result in never matching a song. Are you sure you want to save this playlist?". I've narrowed it down to the iCloud Status settings. I can create a playlist with either Matched or Purchased; however, I get the message above when specifying both. Any ideas?

You need to make sure the rule for these 2 is Match Any, not Match all.

Tip for creating auto-updating Smart Playlists for iPod

Short Answer:
Don't use Smart Playlists that use rules with nested playlists which aren't completely on iPod.
Long Answer:
If you're like me and use nested Smart Playlists, make sure that any Smart Playlist you want to have auto-update on the iPod doesn't use a rule which uses as a criteria a playlist that isn't fully present on iPod (exclamation point next to the Smart Playlist in iTunes when connecting iPod to your Mac).
For example, I have Smart Playlists to exclude certain tracks in other Smart Playlists (Streams, Spoken Word,tracks under 1 minute, etc.). These are tracks that I usually want to exclude in other Smart Playlists but don't want to add those rules each and every time.
The problem is that iPod looks to see if that 'excludes' playlist is present, which obviously it isn't because by it's nature it's designed to exclude tracks. If a nested playlist isn't present it seems the auto-update will not work.
My solution was to create a new Smart Playlist specifically for the iPod, which contained all the rules of my "master exclude" Smart Playlist and any other I wanted specifically for the iPod.
My beef with Apple here is that I can't duplicate a Smart Playlist, which is possible in iPhoto. Being able to do that would make things much easier.
I have since gone about creating 'excludes' playlists so that the playlist itself excludes tracks; previously I was creating a Smart PLaylist that contained (included) all the tracks I wanted to exclude, then using that as a rule (Playlist is not 'Excludes') in other playlists. The second method worked fine on iTunes, since all the tracks are present, but it creates problems on iPod.

I've posted a better version of this thread in the "Using the iPod with color display" forum.
