Can't copy playlist folder from itunes to iphone 6

Hi,
I created a playlist folder in iTunes for a single artist.  I then created 60 playlists within the playlist folder for each album for that artist. It works great on iTunes because everything is organized.  I want that same organization on my iPhone 6.  However, when I try to copy that playlist folder with the 60 playlists to my iPhone 6 iTunes will not let me do this.  ITunes tells me "No items are currently in any playlists inside this folder" and does not recognize the playlists within the playlist folder.  They are there and I can play each playlist within the playlist folder.
BTW- I am using Windows 7 with the latest iTunes and iPhone software.
Help!
Thanks,
Art

Your songs might be taking up too much room in your iPod.
Open iTunes, right-click on a song. Make sure the song is no bigger than 4 MB and it's a MPEG file.
Also, in iTunes, click "Edit" and then go down to "Preferences". Click the 'Advanced" tab and then the "Importing" tab. Make sure your songs are encoded using AAC Encoder and a high quality setting of 128 kpbs.
If your song information is different from what I just told you then this is the reason why your songs won't fit in your iPod and there's not enough room.

  • How can i copy my diary from blackberry to iphone 3gs - this si my first iphone so not sure how to use anything at the moment but my diary is the most important bit i need!

    how can i copy my diary from my old blackberry to new iphone 3GS - this is my first iphone so i am complete novice!  I hope to avoid re-inputting every entry!

    You probably already figured this out, but....
    The iPhone will sync from various things on your computer (check the manual for details) but if your Blackberry won't export the data or sync to anything, then you'll need to get the info off the Blackberry manually.
    Alternatively, it might be possible to set the Blackberry up to sync with Google Calendar, maybe, to export the data? I don't know anything about Blackberrys. Try a google search or ask on BB forums with help getting the data out.
    But it will be easier to manually type into something on your desktop/web, then sync with the iPhone, rather than hand-entering on the phone itself. Then keep syncing with whatever you decided to use, so that you'll never need to do this again.

  • Why can't I transfer files from Itunes to Iphone

    I just updated my itunes to 10.6 and my iphone 4s  to ios 5.1.1.
    My problem is that none of the files I want to tranfer from Itunes to Iphones doesn't transfer.
    I tried to transfer music,apps,photos but none of them was tranfered.
    Can anyone please help me??

    You can try to repair your library. Once you are sure the files are all taken care of, you can sync the phone to remove all of the music and then sync again to add it back. That should take care of the issue.

  • How can I copy a podcast from iTunes to a SBU stick to use in my car radio?

    Before latest update of iTunes, I have always been able to copy a podcast downloaded to iTunes , into a USB stick for my car radio. I can't see how to do that anymore.
    I have no similar problems with my iPhone and my iPad.
    By the way. Is it possibly to play from iPhone or iPad into the car radio ?
    With cable, BlueTooth or a third possibility???
    Can anyone help me.
    regards
    Ebbe

    Copy the file from iTunes or from Windows Explorer to the USB drive. 
    Nothing special and in no way involves or requires iTunes.

    That depends entirely on the head unit in the vehicle and what it supports.  Check the Owner's Manual for the vehicle or the head unit (if aftermarket).

  • Can't copy purchased music from iTunes to iPod(logged into a Windows domain

    I'm running iTunes on Windows XP. I've been using it to manage my music including purchasing music for iTunes.The laptop I'm using I also use it for work and log into a work Domain. I recently purchased an iPod (video) and attempted to transfer music via iTunes. When I manually try to transfer purchased songs only iTunes closes. I can transfer songs that have been imported into the library via CD. I receive a message "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the
    inconvenience." My user login has administrator rights to the PC (where iTunes is installed). All my music files are kept on an external hard drive. I've called Apple support and reinstalled the software several times with the same results. I did create a new user that logs in to
    the PC (not the work Domain), that can somehow transfer the music to the iPod. But I can not see any folders, playlists, or purchased music that was established when logged on the work Domain. That solution isn't sufficient because I can't normally create different users
    and run iTunes (and other products) this way.
    Anyone encounter this problem? Any suggestions?

    This sounds like an interesting snag - clearly if you can get copied CD tracks onto the iPod there isn't an issue PC to iPod.
    I wonder if the inability to copy downloaded music is related to the very clever stuff Apple do to prevent you writing more than seven copies of those tracks? Just a thought - I have no idea how it all works, but it occurs to me it could get embroiled in network stuff?? If you are friendly with your administrator ask them if you can have a go at connecting your iPod to a computer with admin rights, and see if you get a more helpful error message.

  • HT202213 Can I copy audiobooks purchased from itunes to a portable hard drive?

    I need to transfer my audiobooks purchased from itunes to a new computer, can I do this with a portable hard drive?

    Yes you can. If you want to move the whole of itunes then
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1751
    Otherwise you can copy just the audiobook files and import them into the new iTunes. You may be asked to authorise that new computer
    Ctrl B to turn on the top menu

  • I can't copy purchased songs from iTunes onto my iPod on my new computer.

    I have an HP Pavilion zd7000 notebook computer. It's used. It was given to me by a family member. I put my iPod software onto it. I can purchase songs from iTunes, and I can connect my iPod and play the music. However, when I tried to put a purchased song from iTunes onto my iPod, I was told that I wasn't allowed. Is there some sort of security thing I don't know about?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Are you sure your computer is authorized for this? This is probably your issue.
    If you go to the "Advanced" tab on the top in iTunes, is there a "Deauthorize computer..." button or an "Authorize computer..." button? If there's an "authorize computer" link, then that is your issue. Authorize your computer, and you should be able to transfer iTMS purchased songs from iTunes to iPod.
    For details, see this Apple article:
    About iTMS authorization and deauthorization
    I hope this helps you,
    -Kylene
    If any post helps or solves your issue, please mark it that way accordingly. Thank you for helping the boards!

  • Suddenly, can't sync any songs from iTunes to iPhone, other help topics suggestions, not helping me :(

    Everytime I try to sync any of my songs onto my iPhone 4, I get an error message that says: "Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "(song name)", were not copied to the iPhone "iPhone Name" because they could not be found." and then it stops syncing. It says there are 13 problems. Then when you expand to see the files, each one says: "(song name)"" was not copied to the iPhone "iPhone Name" because it could not be found." It can be any song, an old song from 7 years ago that I got off Limewire, or a song from a CD, or it can be a song I paid for from the iTunes store. Doesn't matter.
    Couple weeks ago, I had no problems. Purchased new songs and had them in playlists on my phone. Then a couple days ago, I plugged my iPhone into the computer (to charge it), and suddenly my songs were removed off the iPhone. So I tried to put them back on, kept getting this error. So I googled it. I have spent the past 4 days TRYING to get things to work. I have looked through all the other similar questions, and tried suggestions on there. Nothing is working.
    - There is no exclamation point beside any of my music.
    - I have not changed the hard drives (I don't use my computer daily, probably once a week), (Windows is up to date also).
    - I have tried re-adding the songs to the library.
    - Everything still plays in iTunes.
    - If I click on the file in its location, it will open it and play it in iTunes.
    - I tried deauthorizing my account then reauthorizing it, didnt work.
    - I have even removed all my music off my phone to see if that works, now I have 15 songs on it.
    I did find it odd that when I looked in my purchased playlist, they were not there, but they are on the computer and on the purchased list (under the iTunes store on the side menu). At least I can use my iPod for when I'm in the car, but now I have to carry that around too, I'm getting quite frustrated. Normally I'm quite computer savvy, but I'm totally stuck on this one. And like most people, I rely on my iPhone WAY to much and let the little things affect my daily life. I hope SOMEONE can please help me?!?
    (I don't know if it may even have to do with the fact that yesterday I finally got my iPhone updated to the latest IOS, (cuz I was finally able to download the update from iTunes... Unless that was a separate update) the one where it's like "do you want to cancel, download only, download and install").

    After calling Apple Support. They kind of helped me. Since they pointed me in the right direction, I was able to fix the problem.
    They were not actually songs, but ringtones I created in an app (and probably moved its location). Suddenly problem solved! Lol!

  • Can't sync personal ringtone from iTunes to iPhone 6 plus

    Hi
    I have created a personal ringtone , a 20 sec clip. I saved it as an arc and renamed it to .M4R
    I added it to iTunes which correctly put it in the tones folder. I connected my iPhone - checked the sync tones option /all
    and hit sync.
    The ringtone refuses to come across.
    I am using iOS 8.1 and iTunes v12.0.1.26
    any help would be great
    thanks

    Hello,
    I just discovered something yesterday as I was having the exact problems. Here are some questions that I'll ask with my comments next to them.
    1. Did you burn CDs onto your computer's hard-drive? If so, your iTunes will treat these files differently than if you had used iTunes or downloaded an .mp3. There are quite a few different formats which can be played on your iTunes or iPhone. They are: .mp3, .wav, .m4a, and more . I have no problems with the .mp3 format, but I do have problems with the other formats. I believe that you would have to convert your format of your song from, let's say, a .m4a to a .aac. Then, I delete the .m4a format to avoid redundancies.
    This was my biggest issue, and I hate it. It's very cumbersome. I hate iTunes, in general.

  • Can't move movies bought from iTunes to iPhone

    I just bought one movie off of itunes and rented another. I want to put them on my iphone so that my kids can watch then on a flight. I was able to move the rental onto my iPhone no problem, but when I try to drag the movie I purchased onto my iPhone it won't drop onto the iPhone. I don't get the "+" icon showing that it can be added to the iphone. Any ideas?
    Thx

    I have the same problem. Movies and tv shows downloaded from itunes will not work if they are longer than 25 minutes. The guy at the 14th st Genius bar said that all is well with both computer, nano and software so "we're calling it a usb problem". Do you have an older model mac or pc?

    Is "transfer" nondestructive (copy) or destructive (move/delete) from your rMBP to the external USB.
    Are you using the Finder, or Terminal commands for this process?
    Is the external USB device formatted as either FAT or HFS+?
    If you receive error messages, can you share them here?

  • Can't copy borrowed movie from iTunes to iPad mini, because it's said that it is almost copied to another device, which is not true. Any solution?

    I just borrowed a movie on iTunes a few days ago. Now I would like to copy that to my iPad mini, via iTunes. After a minute copying, it stops and it's said, that the movie could not be copied, because it is almost copied to another computer or device.
    Can anybody help me with the problem?
    Thanks!

    For borrowed do you mean rented? The exact error message helps others to help you.
    Rented movies can only be on one device or computer at a time, expire if not watched within 30 days and once you begin watching expire within 24 hours (US) or 48 hours elsewhere. See HT1657 - iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ). If there has been a problem transferring the content then you might want to use the report a problem links in your account history to contact the iTunes Store support team.

  • Can i copy a folder from one ipad to another

    I created about 20 safari shortcuts and have them in a folder.  I'm wondering if it's possible to move that folder to another ipad. 
    Does anyone know anyway to do that? Or do I have to recreate each and every shortcut in safari again?
    Thanks
    Kat

    If you have registered for an iCloud (me.com) account, have it set up on both iPads, and have Bookmarks syncing enabled, you will be able to add (or remove or move) bookmarks on one device and then have those changes reflected on the other device the next time you launch Safari.
    Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > [Your iCloud/me.com account] and check that "Bookmarks" is ON.  If you turn bookmarks syncing on, you will likely want to pick "Merge" if you're asked what to do with your bookmarks.  (It's easier to delete dupes or extras than to recreate them.)
    Do the same for your other iPad.
    Once Bookmarks syncing is enabled on both iPads, the same set of bookmarks should appear on both devices if they're connected to the Internet (via cellular data or wi-fi).  If you have a Mac with OS X Lion (10.7.3) and have your iCloud account set up there, you can enable bookmark syncing on the Mac so it will have the same set of bookmarks as your iPads as well.
    Note that enabling Bookmarks syncing will also enable the syncing of your Reading List across devices, if you find that useful.

  • I can't send i folder from mac to iPhone 5s why?

    how can i send folder via bluetooth? from my macbook pro to iPhone 5s?

    I'm only trying to sync 350 songs. When I click "sync" the process will start but it won't end in my iTunes. My iPhone's sync symbol dissapears and the sync symbol in iTunes in my PC is still there. The sync process that consits of 5-7 steps won't finish the last step and keeps "downloading Safari secure browsing data" (I don't know if this translation is correct, I'm Spanish and iTunes is set up in Spanish too)
    I've tried turning off Wi-Fi because some people got rid of this problem this way supposedly, but it didn't work at all
