DRag and drop to iPhone etc faulty Itunes 10.6.1

I've just realised why my Iphone only had a few songs on it and its VERY frustrating.
Prior to this update I could drag an album into my iPhone then drag another and it woud simply add those songs to the list being loaded.
Not anymore!
Now iTunes stops loading the first album, thiknks for a bit and loads the second drag. Utterly useless!
I usually drag a selection of purchased and other songs in every couple of weeks for my daily commutes with this 'new' setup it would take a week to drag in a playlist coz I have to wait for every album!
Help!

I think im having the same problem.
i just updated to Itunes 10.6.1 and then wanted to update my phone with some new music.
I go to drag and drop one song into my music under devices and i get the black circle with a line through it. Help!

    Make sure your windows userid has full control and ownership over the entire music folder. Check the box to apply this to subcontainers (aka subfolders)

  • Can I drag and drop a copy of my iTunes library from a portable hard drive more than once?

    Can I drag and drop a copy of my iTunes library from a portable hard drive more than once?  Not copy it, but actually drag and drop it into my music folder on my computer more than once if needed?

    Nothing is going to stop you from dragging it in multiple times, but what exactly are you trying to do?  Are you trying to get iTunes to look through the folder and pick up newly added song files?

  • Can't Drag and Drop to iPhone using iTunes 10.7.0.21

    I cant manually drag and drop my video files to my iPhone using iTunes. When I click on my device and go to summary and check "Manually manage music and videos"  and click apply I get a message saying " The iPhone is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with another library?"
    " An iPhone can be synced with only ones iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents, of this phone with the contents of this iTunes library"
    My options are to erase and sync or cancel. I do not want to erase the contents of my iPhone can anyone help?

    To recap... here is a fuller version of my advice on "how to move a library from one computer to another."
    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.
    As I said in the other thread if you want to be certain of attracting my attention simply post into either of these threads to which I've already posted. These come to the top my active list whenever a new post is added to the thread. Otherwise I keep a general lookout across a number of forums for the threads where I think I can help, but I don't get to read everything...

  • I thought itunes 7.6 allows allows drag and drop to iphone

    So I was reading a few sites and they stated that itunes 7.6 now allows iphone users to drag and drop movies + music. Basically allows you to manually manage your stuff without having to go through the whole "synch" thing.
    But for the life of me i can't figure out how to do this. I have 7.6 but i can't drag or drop anything into my iphone. What am i missing

    "It does allow it.
    On the main iPhone screen in iTunes there is a tick box in the Options section to manually manage music/videos"
    I must be blind because I see no options section. I opened iTunes on my computer, main iPhone screen, no options section. I tried opening iTunes on my iPhone in case that is what you meant, but I see no options section there either. I know this is probably so simple and I'm being simple minded by not seeing it, but I don't!!! Can any one walk me through it like I'm braindead?

  • If I drag and drop ripped songs out of itunes why do I get two files appearing

    hi
    wondering why I see two files (that appear identical in name) appear when I drag and drop previously ripped songs out of my itunes library. For example I've noticed this when I drag and drop songs on to the desktop and then I drag them from there on to my portable music player.
    the duplicares only appear once files are placed on to portable player, not on desktop ot even memory card that one of my players use
    both files have the same extension (eg aiff or m4a)
    only one will play
    why do I see two?
    why does only one play?
    does the 2nd (phantom) file take up space?
    any ideas?
    cheers

    Never import one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
    The only way to merge Libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager
    Best way forward: Restore your back ups to the point before you did this and start over using Library Manager

  • No drag and drop to iPhone?

    So I purchased my iphone recently, and set it up, but for some reason I have to sync playlists every time I want to change the songs on my iphone? what happened to drag and drop, and delete? Is there something I am missing here?

    Sounds as if you didn't really try Randy's suggestion based upon your response. Try it, I think you'll like it, and as a matter of fact, once you figure out the best way to deal with the playlist, I suspect you'll like it just as much if not more than the old way. By the way, you ARE syncing when you drag and drop, it just gets initiated right when you drop the song and in the playlist case, you can wait to sync at the end so your itunes doesn't get sluggish.
    As far as the password is concerned, you HAD to have set that up originally, otherwise you wouldn't get email. When you restore, they wipe out the passwords for security purposes. Just go back into the settings for mail and put your password back in there.

  • Drag-and-drop no longer working in iTunes 7.7

    Recently I've not been able to drag movies onto my iPod touch, neither from the Finder or from within iTunes. They'll drag into playlists, but the green Plus symbol disappears when I move it over my touch. The only way to get movies onto the touch is to 'sync' them, which is VERY inconvenient and tedious if you have lots of files. Is this a change in iTunes 7.7, and if so why??? If not, is there anything I can do to restore drag and drop?

    Update on the problem. 
    The problem was that you cannot drag and drop when in Administrator mode.  Indesign was crashing if I did not open in administrator mode.  The reason why Indesign was crashing has something to do with licensing of the computer and software...  This is a new computer and the c drive is a solid state chip. To conserve c drive space, we setup c:temp to be on a separate drive.  That's why Indesign would not open normally.  You must have your c:temp on your user account to be directed to c:temp.

    system
    Advanced system settings
    Environment Variables
    Changes must be made in four places.  Dig around here, you'll find them.

  • Drag and Drop isn't working on iTunes in Windows 8.1

    I did a clean install of 8.1; drivers for all devices up to date.  I cannot use the drag and drop feature in iTunes (for example, to add songs to a playlist).  Can anyone offer a solution?  Do I  have to have Quicktime or Java installed in addition to iTunes?

  • Drag and drop album art not working / iTunes 7.0.1.8 & WinXP SP2

    Drag and dropping album art isn't working for me after upgrading to iTunes 7 in WinXP SP2. Anyone else experience this problem?
    Update: Drag and drop works from a webpage but not from Windows explorer or Windows Picture & Fax Viewer.

    You only need an iTunes account to automatically get artwork. Usually artwork for CDs you import yourself is gotten from somewhere else. I tend to use allmusic.com. Occasionally I will have to use google to find the artwork though.
    Have never tried to add artwork from anywhere but a webpage though.
