How can I export a playlist and later import it, while keeping the View Options

Related question: How can I choose the default View Options when creating new Play Lists from CD's (that I own) just imported in iTunes

The XML file is a subset of the information in the ITL provided for 3rd party apps to query the library. iTunes doesn't make any use of the data it places there. The ITL file records all the things that aren't recorded in file tags such as ratings, play counts, playlist membership etc.

How can I color a black and white imported jpeg?

I am new to Illustrator, and have been watching MANY videos, but just cannot seem to figure out how to color the B&W photo I imported into Illustrator CC. Do I need to do something in Photoshop first? Am I missing a step? I was able to trace the image but from there I am lost. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

How can I color a black and white imported jpeg?
In case you don't want to trace it first:
-> it needs to real Greyscale. Not just desaturated RGB
-> Do not save it via Save for Web in Photoshop.

I can not open iPhoto. this is the messageShut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command ki get.

Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup.

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

I tries and it doesnt work!!

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Old pc crashed how can I upload ipod playlist and save to new pc?

How can I upload my playlist off my IPod to a new pc?

Be very careful when connecting an iPod full of music to an empty iTunes library.There is very real risk of permanently losing all the music.
To prevent auto sync, before you connect the iPod go to the iTunes preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods".
An alternative method is to connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'control+shift' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to a new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
Find out how to do that here.
How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump and iPodRobot.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
More information is contained here.

How can I merge conference calls and hang up on one of the instead of both on iOS 8.1.1

How can I merge phone Calls and make conference calls with iOS 8.1.1 and hang up on one instead of both of them , it's not giving me an option like before on iOS 7 ?

The following from the 8.1 user manual (http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf) may help
Create a conference call. While on a call, tap Add Call, make another call, then tap Merge Calls. Repeat to add more people to the conference.
    Drop one person: Tap next to a person, then tap End.
    Talk privately with one person: Tap , then tap Private next to the person. Tap Merge Calls to resume the conference.
    Add an incoming caller: Tap Hold Call + Answer, then tap Merge Calls.

How can I choose individual playlists and/or songs when syncing with iCloud?

It was pretty intuitive before iCloud, when I was only syncing (wired via USB) with iTunes on my MacBook Pro.
I would select my iPhone's name in the left-hand column of iTunes, and then select the category of what I wanted to sync. From there, I could pick particular playlists, songs, TV shows, movies, podcasts, photo folders, etc. to synchronize to my device. I felt that I had complete control over every single thing that synced to my iPhone. Very Cool!
When I made the decision to automatically backup wirelessly (Wi-Fi) on iCloud, there was a notice that my iPhone would no longer sync with iTunes. Now, I find that there is no longer any way that I can make choices of what is backed up and/or transferred to my iPhone. All I can find is broad categories of whether to sync ALL music, ALL videos, ALL photos, etc. How can I regain the freedom to choose precisely what is synced to my iPhone?
I'm assuming that every time I want to make a change (even adding a single music video) to on my phone, I need to do all of the following:
1. Go to "Settings".
2. Click "iCloud".
3. Scroll to bottom og the page.
4. Click "Storage & Backup".
5. Turn off iCloud Backup.
6. Connect to iTunes on computer with USB cable.
7. Make desired syncing changes, etc.
8. Disconnect cable
9. Turn iCloud Backup back on., etc.
This surely doesn't meet Steve Jobs' simplicity definition of being "able to do anything with 3 clicks or less."
I don't see this addressed anywhere in Apple's documentation. It would be helpful if they at least had a list of what is backed =up in each place, and how people should manage backing up their devices on each.
Are the two methods of backup mutually exclusive? Or, should they be complimentary? (With all of the extra keystrokes?)
Is there any meaningful difference between syncing with iTunes via USB or wirelessly?
Will iTunes in the Cloud simplify the backup and restore process? Or make it even more complicated?

Ever since iTunes 11, that capability is not there. The Popularity displays in a column, but you cannot sort on it.
If you would like to make a suggestion to Apple, use the iTunes Feedback page:

How can I play a playlist and not the entire library on my shuffle?

I can't seem to organize songs into playlists and then play only the songs in the playlist -

There is if you play music from your computer (mine is connected via AirTunes to several stereo systems) or if you later get a Nano, or iPod with Video or an iPhone that does support playlists.
You can also use them to load songs on your Shuffle. For example, say you are going on a long exercise walk and you want many motivational songs with increasingly faster tempos. You could create a playlist on your computer, put the songs in it that you want, in the order you want, call it Long Walk, and then when your Shuffle is connected choose to Autofill from the playlist Long Walk

How can I create one playlist and not have numerous ones that duplicate songs?

How do I consolidate all my playlists into one large playlist and eliminate the extras?

Hey there Christophter,
You can start consolidate your playlists by opening the one you want to move music FROM, then dragging the music in there to the playlist you want to add TO. If there is a duplicate you will be prompted to skip them or not. Then delete the playlist:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Delete songs, playlists, or other items
Click the item to select it, and press the Delete key.
Click DeleteItem.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

How can I export a playlist to a jump drive?

My new motorcycle has a stereo with a usb port. I am using an iPod, but i frequently have dropouts or disconnects. I would like to try a jump drive, but pulling songs out of the folders takes so long…if I could drag a current playlist to the drive that would be much preferred. Plus it would take the album art with it. That leads to question #2…if I have to build a playlist by pulling songs out of folders, is there a way to get the album art? If not from iTunes, is there some other software? I checked out media monkey, but it does not appear to be iMac compatible.

Playlists are not in Finder, they are in iTunes. In reality they are only a list of tracks in your library file, not a specific arrangement of files in Finder. It's like a recipe in a cookbook. You have a recipe for cake and it tells you the ingredients for that cake which you have in various places in the kitchen. You probably do not keep the shelves in your kitchen arranged by recipe, otherwise you would have 50 containers of salt, 30 of flour, etc. If your files were arranged by playlist on the computer you might end up with 10 copies of the same file and people would quickly complain here about wasting drive space.
Open a Finder window, make it smaller and place it on the left side of your screen.
Open iTunes and make the window smaller and place it on the right side of your screen.
Click on a playlist and drag it from the iTunes window to the flash drive open in the Finder window, or even just where it shows in the sidebar if you have your preferences set for drives to display. All the files that make up the contents of that playlist will be copied to the flash drive. You won't see a playlist as such, but you will see all the files in that playlist. How your motorcycle's player handles things from this point really depends upon the motorcycle's player software and you will have to read the manual for that. Some only play a bunch of files alphabetically. Some may use specific playlist files to make a more orderly structure similar to iTunes, and then there's a whole different question as to how to generate that.

How can I change my playlists and library on my ipad back to list from icons?

After the update to itunes 10.5.1.42 all my lists on my ipad appear as icons instead of lists.
Specifically, I want to change my library back to a list, as well as my playlists. It's too tedious to scroll through pages and pages of icons to find the playlist I'm looking for when it's so much easier to find in the old alphabetized list format.
The ituens display on my computer is lists, same as before, but on the ipad they're now icons.
If there are preferences settings for this, I'm missing it...
Thanks

How can I export to Text and/or CSV format and get correct page info?

I am using CRVS2010 to upgrade an application from CRXI RDC to .Net. When at runtime I generate the report and export to Text or CharacterSeparatedValues my page footers show Page -1 of 1. Using the CRXI RDC, I see the correct page info in the footers.
When I export to Text, I get the Page -1 of 1 for every page. If I set LinesPerPage to zero, then I get it all on one page, which still has Page -1 of 1 at the end.
If I export to CSV, I get Page -1 of 1 for every line. If I use the viewer to review the report at runtime, and export from there, I cannot export as Text so I have no comparison. However, the Export to CSV from the Viewer as Page -1 of 1for every entry just as my export does.
What do I need to do to get the correct line info? What is that is different from CRXI RDC and CRVS2010 .net that would impact this behavior?

Yes, I am using SP2 for VS 2010 and I'm using the Page N of M formula in the page footer. While my export code was not quite as simple as yours, I did it both ways in my test program with the same results. A one page report whose footer says Page -1 of 1.
Here's the relative code snippet:
#if 0
    CrystalDecisions::Shared::ExportOptions ^exportOptions = gcnew CrystalDecisions::Shared::ExportOptions();
    exportOptions->ExportDestinationType = CrystalDecisions::Shared::ExportDestinationType::DiskFile;
    exportOptions->ExportFormatType = CrystalDecisions::Shared::ExportFormatType::Text;
    TextFormatOptions ^textFormatOptions = exportOptions->CreateTextFormatOptions();
    textFormatOptions->LinesPerPage = 0;
    textFormatOptions->CharactersPerInch = 11;
    exportOptions->FormatOptions = textFormatOptions;
     CrystalDecisions::Shared::DiskFileDestinationOptions ^diskFileDestinationOptions = exportOptions->CreateDiskFileDestinationOptions();
     diskFileDestinationOptions->DiskFileName = gcnew System::String("c:\temp\test.txt");
     exportOptions->DestinationOptions = diskFileDestinationOptions;
    thisReport.Export(exportOptions);
#else
    thisReport.ExportToDisk(CrystalDecisions::Shared::ExportFormatType::Text, gcnew System::String("c:\temp\test.txt"));
#endif
