Duplicate Genius Playlists

Duplicate Genius Playlists: continue to appear  in my itunes library as I delete them they eventually come back again  eg: Crystal Silence..this would contain about 25 songs that relate to that music genre and jazz tone..they do not appear as dups when I open the iphone however.they will apear as Crystal Silence 2..any ideas

Creation of a Genius playlist is available on the new iPod Nano's and iPod Touch with v2.1 installed. Previous generation of the iPod do not support this feature directly on the iPod.
You can of course create the Genius playlist in iTunes 8, and sync that list to your iPod.

  • How do I erase genius playlist from iPhone?

    Since I upgraded my IPhone to iOS7, several Genius Playlists randomly appeared on my device. I have ITunes match off. I have disabled Genius on ITunes, and synced my device without success. There are 13 empty playlist on my iPhone and I just wish to erase them. How can I do this so that next time I sync the devices, the wont appear again?

    I too have exactly 13 empty Genius playlists above my regular playlists.  It does not give the option to delete them.  I just want to get rid of the 12 duplicates.

  • Genius Playlist Longer than 100 Songs?

    Has anyone come up with a way to make a Genius Playlist longer than 100 songs?
    Thanks

    I can't figure out how to do it automatically, but I used a work around. I created an initial playist, then took one of the songs from the playlist that I liked, and created another one from it. Before I did that, I saved it in a regular playlist. I added the second to the first. It asked if I wanted to skip any duplicate songs, which I did. In this way, I built an 800+ song list.

  • Can I move my external drive library in order to create a Genius playlist?

    Our iTunes library is stored on an external hard drive, and the computer we use it with is a desktop G3 (stop laughing) running OSX 10.3.9 (OK, really, stop laughing) and the latest version of iTunes I can use with that, iTunes 7 (end of comedy routine). Of course, this is the wife's computer which she only uses for email & internet, so it hasn't been a problem so far.
    I would like to create some Genius playlists for that library utilizing my laptop which has 10.5.6 and iTunes 8.0.2.
    Is it possible for my to connect the hard drive to my laptop and access that library in my laptop's iTunes for the purpose of creating some Genius playlists that would then be available back on the G3? It would be sweet if this wouldn't affect the laptop's small library stored on it's internal hard drive and in the default iTunes directory as well.
    Thanks!

    Actually you can store just some, but you always have to remember to option+drag in the future for those media:

  • I have a generation 5 Nano iPod. I have created Genius playlists  and want to sync them to my iPod. How do I do this, as they are not shown in my library when syncing my music.

    I have a generation 5 Nano iPod. I have created suggested playlists from the iTunes store using Genius. I want to move these playlists into the playlists in my library so they can be synced to my iPod. I don't seem to be able to do this, and can only listen to these Genius playlists on my computer. How do I transfer these?

    On a 5th gen nano, you can actually create and listen to Genuis playlists on the iPod.
    You can also set up automatic syncing to include Genius Playlists. 
    In iTunes, if the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  In the sidebar, the Genuis playlists that you create are shown under GENIUS (not PLAYLISTS).
    If you use automatic syncing, you set up the iPod's Music screen in iTunes (where the Sync Music checkbox is located).  Genius playlists are shown on the iPod's Music screen, under Playlists, where you can select (checkmark) them as items to be synced to the iPod and maintained by iTunes.
    If you use the manual method (with the Manually manage music and videos setting), there is no way to include the actual Genius playlists.  However, you can create a new playlist manually on the iPod using iTunes.  Then, drag the songs from a Genius playlist to that playlist on the iPod.

  • I don't seem to have the genius playlist option on my iPod touch 5th generation-what to I do???

    I didn't jailbreak my ipod or download any pirated stuff. I actually only found out that my ipod should have the genius playlist option after reading a review on it. But when I checked under playlists in my music app, only the 'purchased' playlist is showing. What do I do to get the genius playlist?????

    Hi prefdave,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your question. If you are talking about Genius playlists or Genius Mixes and syncing them to your iPod Touch, you may find the following articles helpful:

  • The Genius playlist and the 1st Generation ipod touch

    I am just wondering, is the genius playlist ability not available to the 1st Generation iPod touch or does it only work on certain songs?
    Because it would be really annoying if they limited to the 2nd Generation iPod touch only.

    Another post here said to just go ahead and resync your iPod and it should start working. And it did for me. If that does not work make sure that genius is enabled on your iTunes, otherwise it will not add the functionality to your iPod.
    Hope that helps

  • My iPod no longer appears as  folder/file in Itunes when connected.  Library, genius, playlists, etc.  are present, but there is no longer cross reference with the iPod itself.  Help!?

    I just tried it again and this time a different message showed up "The iPod 'name' cannot be synced. The required folder cannot be found." I have no clue what folder it could be talking about.

  • Error in the iphone music app iOS7 with dozens of empty genius playlists

    Im getting an error in the iphone music app in iOS7 with dozens of empty genius playlists even tho genius is OFF in my account settings and genius playlists are not selected for syncing with my iphone 5.  All apps, iTunes and iOS 7 are updated.
    The option to turn off genius under STORE menu is no longer available in the latest version of iTunes 11.1.
    Thanks.

    Love your comment:
    "Oddly the option to Delete is, get this, under Save:"

    This is just nuts!
    Whoever heard of hitting SAVE to DELETE something....Ha Ha Ha!!!

    Many thanks this worked for me and I would NEVER have found it without you.
    I would NEVER have hit Save to Delete something...And I mean NEVER!
    Maybe if I hit Cancel button below this text box, it will save the contents for me..... Unbelievable!!!

  • Turned off Genius, how do I restore Genius playlists from ipod to my iTunes

    Hi,
    I turned off Genius in iTunes by accident and my Genius playlists have been deleted. They are still on my iPod. I'd like to know if they will automatically sync back to iTunes when I connect my iPod or have I lost them for good?
    Many thanks

  • How can I have both genius playlist and regular playlist on my new 160g ipod classic. The list of songs are there, but when I click playlist, I only get the genius playlists.

    How can I have both genius playlists and regular playlists available on my new 160g classic ipod. I can see my entire song list, but no playlist other than the 3 genius playlist I just made.  Also how can I delete a genius playlist. Made the same playlist twice by mistake. Thanks.

    This was not a simple task.  Got it handled.  Had to call Apple support. Apparently, the 160g only syncs the genius playlist.  You have to go in and "tell it" to sync the entire playlist as well as the genius playlists. There is also an option for only syscing certain songs. On itunes, there is two sections; one for the stuff that is synced on your ipod and another separate list for the stuff in your library!  This is exciting for me as I am not computer savvy to say the least. 

  • Genius Playlists on iPad

    I have recently noticed that there are about 8 or so Genius Playlists on my iPad without me ever having created them. I haven't turned on Genius, nor iTunes Match and would like to know why they got on there and how I can delete them.

    I had the same problem and I will try to share with you what I did to get rid of them - if I can remember . Bear with me.
    Tap on one of the playlists and then tap Edit in the next window. After that tap Save. Then go back to the Playlists tab and hold down on the icon and the X to delete should pop up.
    I know it was some combination of choosing Edit and then Save. Maybe my sequence isn't correct but give it a try and see what happens

  • Somehow i have genius, and often a song will not play because it isn't on my genius playlist.  tried adding it and it won't add..  do i need genius?  what does it do for me?

    often i try and play a song and the genius menu comes up and stops me.  do i need genius?  what does it do for me?  one favorite song is not on the genius playlist, and they won't add it.  it is a big bother, actually

    What do you mean it comes up and stops you? 
    No you don't need Genius. If it's just an extra feature of the device. 
    Looking for a bit more detail as to what is happening and what you are doing to make it happen.
