Can't see songs in Playlist.

I have several playlists on my iPhone but for one playlist, I can't see the songs.  The songs are on the phone and I can play them but I just can't see the songs.  I've deleted the playlist, recreated, and sync'd the phone again and still the playlist is there and at the bottom shows the number of songs but all the entries are blank.  If I click on an empty entry the song will play.

With your playlist in "List view", click on the header over the column of numbers all the way to the left.  This will then reveal the true playback (and sync) order.
However, the sort order in iTunes may not agree with the sort order on your device, but that is a separate issue and seems to have too many variables to go into here.

    It does not look like this is possible with iTunes 11 (or 11.0.1).

  • I can't see the gift playlist arrow next to any of my playlists. How do I give a playlist with itunes 10?

    I can't see the gift playlist arrow next to any of my playlists. How do I give a playlist with itunes 10?

    Try this: 
    1.  Create your playlist in iTunes.
    2.  Select the playlist in the source (left) column.
    3.  Go to the Store menu > Share playlist...
    4.  Click the "Gift" button in the dialog box that appears.
    5. Wait while iTunes checks that all the playlist's songs are available in the store.
    6.  Fill out the gift form that eventually appears.
    That should work.
    Regards.

  • In ios 7 I can't see my old playlist of videoclip in landscape view. Anybody know how can I set it?

    In ios 7 I can't see my old playlist of videoclip in landscape view. Anybody know how can I set it?

    Hello everyone,
    I faced this same issue, but not from updating to iOS 7.
    In my case all my music playlists disappeared. In another post I found a process which got them back, but after I'd done so I noticed that my Apps list and my books list were both empty, even though I'd bought plenty of books & apps. The following trick I discovered restored both of these lists.
    1. Within iTunes, select the Apps tab within the library, to show the (empty) window of all your apps.
    2. Now in a finder window, open your iTunes folder. On my computer this is in my Music folder.
    3. Within the iTunes folder, locate and drag the "Mobile Applications" folder into the apps window.
    Presto!!
    The same thing worked for finding the missing books, except that the books folder is stored one level deeper, within the iTunes Music folder, and of course I dragged it into the books window.
    I don't know if it matters, but I'm still running OSX 10.6.8 because I have use some legacy OSX apps that won't run in anything more recent, but my iTunes version is 11.1.4.
    I hope this helps a few people...

  • Can't add songs to playlists in iTunes 9

    Is anyone else having this problem in iTunes 9? I can't drag any songs into any playlists (existing or newly created). I can, however, delete songs from playlists.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    I was adding songs to my iPod playlist and not even 2 minutes in to the task I could no longer drag and drop songs into ANY of my playlists. I could just as easily right-click and the songs would go without problem.
    I've just got off the phone with Apple Support and all he had me do was download the most recent security update. I believe the only reason I was asked to do with was so my Macbook would not just restart, but also refresh all of the apps as well.
    So far so good. KMFC.

    Change the language of your iPod. If you don't know how to, try:

    > Reset your iPod Nano. (best option)

  • How can i see songs to sync to iphone from computer?

    how can i see songs to sync to iphone from computer?

    you can't sync songs from your phone to your computer, syncing is a computer to phone process. if you purchased songs on your phone from itunes and want them to go to your computer so you can listen to them there, you right-click on the name of your phone in itunes and choose 'transfer purchases.' these are the only songs that will go in that direction

  • How can I see song lyrics in iOS 8?

    In the past I've been able to add lyrics to my music in iTunes and then see those lyrics in the music app after syncing my iPhone or iPod... There is an option in my setting to view lyrics which I have turned on and yet I can't see the lyrics I've added in the music app, how do I make it so I can see those lyrics?

    Please ignore my above post regarding Open IME.....!!! I had a WAV version of a song and a MP3 version of the song. It allowed me to add lyric ONLY when it was the MP3 version. When i was changing the IME it must have coincided with me changing format of song....hence why I thought it was IME!
    Advice to other users.....CHECK WHICH FILE YOU ARE DRAGGING INTO ITUNES....AND DON'T DO IT WHEN TIRED!! I have multiple versions of the songs and I didn't bother checking which was which. I now realise I could have saved myself a good few hours instead of messing about..lol!
    The other thing I did learn is that once you add lyric and click 'ok'...then you cannot alter it. I had to delete song from playlist...re-add...then add lyrics again. Not too sure why.... maybe a glitch...or maybe I'm just too tired.
    Anyway...I think the problem lies with the format of song you import into i-tunes as mentioned in a post above.
    Sorry I couldn't be of no assistance....am tired and i want to go to bed...lol

  • Can't create smart playlists because iTunes can't see all my playlists

    I noticed that my smart playlists aren't updating properly. When I tried to edit them, I got an error message saying "This smart playlist depends on one or more playlists that cannot be found."  I am using as one of my rules "Playlist is" but the dropdown list next to that rule does not show all of my playlists. It shows some of my smart playlists, none of the "regular" playlists. That means I cannot fix the smart playlist.
    For example, I have a playlist called "exercise" that is a regular playlist. It contains 965 songs that I have added manually. I can see the "Exercise" playlist just fine in iTunes, and I can add/remove songs from it. But my smart playlist, "Top Exercise Rare Recent," does not work, because it depends on the rule "Playlist Is Exercise." When I try to edit the rule "Playlist is," I cannot choose "Exercise" from the dropdown list--that playlist simply does not show up. But it is there. I can see it in iTunes. I just can't see it in the dropdown list.
    I don't even know what to try to fix this.
    In case it matters, a few versions ago, an iTunes update "lost" my library. I had saved backup of my library files, fortunately, so I did not lose all of my ratings and playlists (at least, I didn't think I did). After I restored my library files, iTunes did not recognize my iPod classic so I had to re-sync it (removing everything that was on it and replacing it with whatever was in iTunes, i.e., exactly the same files). Then the next update broke my ability to burn playlists to cds AND it broke my system clock. I had to revert to a restore point that preceded the iTunes update, then reinstall iTunes, then "repair" the installation to get my cd burning ability back.
    I am now using iTunes 11.3.1.2 on a Windows 8.1 PC (64-bit). Wishing I had never update

    Thanks for the clarification. Sorry, it's working for me so I'm not sure what to suggest. Perhaps someone else will have ideas.
    Regards.

  • Can't see my ipod playlists in iTunes

    I created a folder in itunes in order to organize my playlists. As soon as I did that the playlists on my ipod nano disappeared from itunes. I deleted the folder I created (in itunes, that is), together with its playlists and the problem still persists. I just added a new playlist to the ipod and i can't see that either in itunes. When the ipod is disconnected from ipod, I can see the playlists on the ipod but i can't see them in itunes, period. When I add songs to the ipod they just go to the songlist, not to any specific playlist because I can't see any anyways. Help.

    The problem is not about updating. When you connect your ipod to itunes, you are supposed to see the playlists that are on your ipod on the computer. In my case, I do not see the playlists that should be on the ipod. When you add a playlist to the ipod you are supposed to see those playlists in itunes. While I do see them on the ipod when I disconnect it from itunes, I do not see them when the ipod is connected to itunes. It is making the process of organizing my music impossible. So the problem is not with automatic or manual updating. The problem is with seeing the playlists in itunes.

  • ITunes 10.4 can't drag songs into playlists

    There is one glaring difference in the new iTunes 10.4 (80). I can't drag songs from one playlist to another. It doesn't matter whether the source is a smart playlist or a regular dumb one, or even the main music library.
    smart playlist or dumb playlist or even the main music library) into other (dumb) playlist.
    As a workaround, I can copy (cmd-c) and paste (cmd-v), but this is ... umm ... sub-optimal, because you have to change playlists to do it. Then when you go back to the first folder, any search you might have used before is now gone.
    Is there any way to bring back drag and drop? Some weird .plist hack or anything?

    Well. My first efforts to search for a solution were poorly executed, because I tried again and found lots of answers.
    The problem appears to be using a Wacom driver. See the discussion here and (same thread) here and here. No idea when that will be fixed. I use a 8 or 9 year old Graphire, and drivers have been a problem for most of those. Sigh.
    But this experience also made me learn that you can right click to add selections to a playlist.
    I even learned how that first column works, which I never knew before.

  • How can I see songs on ipod while using iTunes 7.0.12.6

    You used to be able to click on your ipod and manage all your songs on your ipod in the old itunes. Now when I click on the ipode I can't see anything on it. When I click on the music tab all I see are options to sync. Everything is "grayed" out when it comes to playlists, can't select them. And on the summary sheet I cannot select Enable disk use.

    If you want to manage the tracks on your iPod directly, you need to set your iPod options in iTunes to manually manage the iPod. See "Loading songs onto iPod manually" in your iTunes Help for more information.
    Regards.

  • Can't drag songs into playlist

    I can't drag songs from my library into one of my playlists. Other playlists are fine - it is just the one that won't take songs. Is there a limit for the number of songs in a playlist?

    What sort of playlist is it? If it's a smart playlist then it gets it's content from the rules that have been set for it, for example recently added. You won't be able to drag to a playlist like this just a normal one. The icon for an normal playlist that you can drag to will have a musical note on it, a smart playlist has an icon that looks like a little gear wheel.

  • CAN'T MOVE SONGS IN PLAYLIST

    I create a playlist with songs from my library and then try to drag the songs within the playlist to make a different order and they wont change position from how they were originally dragged in. is there a setting i need to check or uncheck to fix this so i can arrange my songs the way i want them within the created playlist?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions, Terry!
    Assuming that we're talking about a Playlist (as opposed to a Smart Playlist), just make sure it's sorted by the left-most column in the Playlist display.
    You can sort the playlist in different ways by clicking on the various column headings at the top of the display, but only when you've selected the column with the numbers on the left-hand side will you be able to rearrange the songs.
    If this doesn't solve your problem, post back.
