Cant pull up iTunes playlists in iDVD

Ive moved a slideshow/photo album from iPhoto to iDVD but under the audio tab, in iDVD, it wont show the playlist, from iTunes, that I created for the slideshow. Ive tried dragging it to iDVD and dragging it to the desktop, then to iDVD. The "HELP" section says you can import playlists. Any ideas?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.7)

you can do this a couple of ways
1. Open iPhoto
2. Select the slideshow in the Source Pane
3. From the File menu select Export. This will export it as a movie (to be imported from iMovie or iDVD).
-or-
From the Share menu, Select Send to iDVD.

My motherboard "fried" on my computer when the fan quit working. I cannot access my hard drive on my old computer. I just downloaded ITunes on my new computer; assumed it would pull all my playlists in under my Apple ID and password-no such luck. Help?

If your external drive does not have an independent power supply, you may wish to consider a couple of lower-cost options before tossing the drive. Bus-powered drives have no external power source and must get all their power from the computer. They can exceed the computer's USB energy budget.
Cheapest option:
1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
This gets power from two of the computers USB porst sna can provide enough power to wake up an under-performaing bus-powered drive.
If you don't have enough ports to use this, try the next cheapest option:
Newer Technology 7 Port Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Hub with Power Adapter for Mac & PC
Such a hub has a an independent power supply to make up for wahat the comptuer fails to provide.

Adding iTunes playlist as separate file in iDVD

I am creating a DVD using video created in iMovie. In addition to the movie, I would like to include a separate file of the music (something like a soundtrack in the form of an iTunes playlist) that can be accessed through the main menu. I have not been able to find an answer in iDVD Help.
How about adding a folder of the photos that were used to make the movie/slideshow?
Can either of these be done?

You can add music files to the DVD-Rom section of the Dvd but you won't be able to access the files unless it's from a computer (since the dvd rom section isn't readable on most set top dvd players).
You can add audio to slideshows ie "Fit Slides to Audio" or you can add audio as a separate track within the video editing application (iMovie). However, iDvd wasn't really designed as a video editing app (apple leaves this function to apps like i-Movie, FCP, FCE, etc.)
Essentially, iDvd is to iMovie what the candy wrapper is to a chocolate bar. It's simply the exterior packaging of the movie you made in iMovie or FCP.
frankly I normally use a CD for all audio files (that or an iPod). But if you want to write audio files to a Dvd then consider an app like Roxio toast and make an audio disc.
An audio disc is a CD or DVD that contains audio files. Audio discs are meant to be played in a home or car stereo, in a set-top DVD player, and can also be used in a Macintosh or Windows computer.
or select from these types of audio disc
Types of Audio Discs:
Toast can create many kinds of audio discs - more than any other Mac burning software.
• Audio CD: This CD can be played in most home or car stereo CD players, set-top DVD players, and computers. This is similar to a standard commercial CD you can purchase in music stores. This is the best choice for playback in a CD player. See Making an Audio CD.
• Music DVD: This DVD can be played in a set-top DVD player or in a Macintosh or a Windows computer with a DVD player. A music DVD can contain over 50 hours of music and has full navigation menus for song selection. This is the best choice for playback in a DVD player. See Making a Music DVD.
• MP3 Disc: This CD or DVD can be played in home or car stereo MP3 disc players, some set-top DVD players, and most Macintosh and Windows computers. MP3 discs have longer playing times than audio CDs but their playback is less universal. See Making an MP3 Disc.
• Enhanced Audio CD: This CD can be played in a home or car stereo CD player. It contains additional data content, which is accessible in a Macintosh or Windows computer. See Making an Enhanced Audio CD.
• Mixed Mode CD: This CD can be played in a Macintosh or Windows computer. It offers playback compatibility with older CD-ROM players and is rarely used. Enhanced Audio CD is a better choice for this type of disc. See Making a Mixed Mode CD.

When i plugged my ipod into the computer it reset with the new update and all my music on the ipod disappeared but the library showed my playlists still. Now its showing it as currupt and i cant even bring itunes up. What can I do? HELP please

What can I do to fix this. I cant bring anything itunes related up without that popup telling me it is currupt, and that I have redue it. Everytimg i have tried, it does the same thing. It was working once so I dont understand what went wrong and where. This is the 5th time redoing itunes, I've even tried restoring old versions. Nothing seems to be working.

If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. This makes 1 look and act more like previous versions. Also go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod>Sync your device>Set up syncing>Sync device manually.
to make sure you are follwoing the right instructions for drag and dropping.
If the songs do not play in iTunes on the computer then y willhave to reimport them into iTunes. For iTunes purchases you can
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

HT1399 Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming. So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on. But the ipad is a different story. I have the music and artist but not one playlist I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this.
Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z. Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac. Which I do talk highly of all the time. But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not. Any ideas?
Thanks Al

Ive downloaded the latest version of itunes and now i cant open itunes. it says im missing something but when i go to download it again just to be safe it keeps saying the same thing and i cant open my itunes anymore

I cant open my itunes. it said i needed to download the 10.5.2 version to be able to upload the songs to my new ipod (touch) and when i went to do that my itunes wont open at all. me and my mom tried everything. i even went on my brothers account to get at least some songs and his did the same thing even though i didnt download it to the newest version. after i downloaded the lastest version and tried to open my itunes it said it was missing something so i went and downloaded it again. i know that was probably bad to do but i didnt know what else to do. even though i went and did that it keeps saying that im missing something. i dont know what to do to get my itunes to work again and if ill have to redownload all my songs and videos again.
Pleas help.
Thanks much,
Sammii

Plug your iPod into your computer, it will begin to sync. Now check to see if the playlists have been added.
If not, go to the songs tab under your iPod when it is connected to iTunes, Unless you have checked "Sync all songs (or something to those words)" you should have an option on what you can put on your iPod. Make sure to check the playlists that you want on your iPod.

ITunes Playlist for a slideshow?

Is it possible to combine songs in an iTunes playlist and use the playlist (containing more than one song/audio file) as the soundtrack to a slideshow in iDVD 5? If so, is it as easy as dragging the playlist icon to the audio button in the canvas?

Hi Walt:
Open GB and simply drag them to the track.
Export to iTunes
Open in iDVD.
Hope that makes sense!

Is there a way to get iOs 5.0 iTunes playlists on iPad2 to look like before?

How do I get iOs 5 iTunes playlists on my iPad2 to look like the pre-5 playlists? When I touch the "iPod" icon, my playlists now look like "albums" instead of a list on the left of various playlists. I don't like the "Album" look since several of my playlists are contained in playlist FOLDERS... Worked and looked great before 5.0...
Thanks!

Sorry, there is no such thing as a 3rd Generation 8GB iPod Touch.
What some people don't know is that when Apple released Model MC086LL it was sold as a 8GB 3rd generation unit by some retailers but It really had the same guts as the 2nd generation model MB528LL with upgraded software. ALL so called "8GB 3rd generation" iPod Touch serial numbers pull up in the apple support system as a 2nd generation unit. Because of hardware limitations, 2nd generation units are not able to upgrade to ios5, therefore your last update will is version 4.21.

ITunes Playlist(multiple songs) Does Not Play During Slide Show in IDVD5

I have a Itunes playlist that contail 3 songs. They play in Iphoto during the slideshow. However, only the first song plays in IDVD 5 andnot the others. But during preview all the songsplay. Anyone have any ideas.

If you look around the forums, you'll see this is a relatively common problem. Although it makes no sense that Apple lets this continue, a couple options are to Export/Share the slideshow to Full-Quality DV (a Quicktime movie) and:
- import into iMovie and add the songs, or
- use Quicktime Pro ($30) to open your songs, then copy and paste them into the slideshow QT file.

QT Pro and iTunes playlist

I have a keynote presentation that I have exported as a QT Movie that I intend to bring into iDVD.
I know how to add individual songs to QTP but would rather bring in an iTunes playlist.
Is there a way to bring a playlist into QTP?
thanks
bob

No, but you could open them one at a time in QT and append each new one to the end of the last one, save that as a new QT clip (all the songes in a row) and then use that with the presentation. If you are using the QT video in iDVD of course you could just add all the songs to iDVD too.

I cant access my itunes account on my new computer. None of my songs are showing up.

I cant download new itunes

i cant download new itunes.i uninstall itunes. to get it back. then i get this "click OK to try again or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'Bonjour64.msi' in the below. i have no clue what to do, cause i also have the same prob. download Quicktimes

"click OK to try again or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'Bonjour64.msi' in the below.
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

IPhoto will not recognize itunes playlists

I have had this problem for a couple months now where iphoto slideshows and idvd, and imovie cannot find any of the itunes music playlists and the pop-up for slideshows just says "open itunes 6 or higher to populate list" but never does.
I recently upgraded to ilife 08 hoping that that would solve the issue but its still there. After reading some posts online i tried rebuilding my itunes library xml file many times, opened the apps in the correct order, repaired permissions deleted, threw away preference plist files, and even threw away and reinstalled several of the apps. None of them seemed to solve the issue. Anyone have any ideas to get the iapps to see itunes playlists again?? Please help

No, this is a purely diagnostic step. It tells us that both iTunes and iPhoto are okay, there's no need to re-install them and that the issue is somewhere in your main user account.
When the apps interact, iPhoto reads the iTunes xml file, and the problem is in there somewhere, so I would also be posting over there.
All my comments about the iTunes xml file are based on what I've learned about the iPhoto one. They may not necessarily apply.
Where is your iTunes Library? On your start up drive? On an external? If an external, what format is it?
Do you have any non-ascii characters in your mp3 metadata or tags (essentially, anything not a-z or 0-9)

I have given up on my dell and bought an iMac 27"... Now how do I transfer my dell iTunes playlists from my dell to my iMac, as they are showing on the iMac when I plug in my iPod but it's not allowing to me to play them as they are shaded?

I have given up on my dell and bought an iMac 27"... Now how do I transfer my dell iTunes playlists from my dell to my iMac, as they are showing on the iMac when I plug in my iPod but it's not allowing to me to play them as they are shaded? I have also separately transferred all my music via my external drive from my dell to my iMac which is showing in iTunes but won't upload to my iPod... Just to confuse you even more my AppleTV which is linked to my log in email address and home sharing is showing and playing all the playlists I want to see on my iMac... Phew that was exhausting hope you understand and can help me:-)

You may have transferred all your songs, but your iPad is seeing the library as a different entity.
