How can I manage playlists on my iPhone 6?

I just got my iPhone 6 and can't figure out how to create and manage music playlists!!
First I created one, added some tunes. but then I wasn't able to add more (the only editing options were to delete songs on the playlist or delete the list altogether).   I tried to create another list but this time the option didn't appear on the screen.
I've had a lot of problems w iTunes on my new phone, which is shameful given that Apple pretty much revolutionized this medium.  This is my first Apple phone; the last time I had an iPod touch, which was great. 
Anyone else out there have the same issue?

If you tap on the playlist you want to edit you should see buttons along the top for "edit", "clear", and "delete"
If you tap "edit" you can delete songs from the playlist by tapping the red delete icon next to each song or you can add songs to the playlist by tapping the "+" in the upper right corner and navigating to the songs you with to add to the playlist.  When you are finished, tap "Done"

  • How can I sync playlists from my iphone to a new computer?

    I have a new Macbook Pro. I transfered the content of my itunes folder from my previous laptop to the new machine but playlists did not transfer. Now I have my playlists on my iphone but want to sync to new computer but Itunes warns me that if I sync my data on the phone will be replaced by the data on my computer, which I do not want to happen because then i would lose my playlists. How can I sync from the iphone to the computer?

    Hi,
    I have just transferred my iTunes library from PC to new MacBook Pro and I have an inkling that you may not have copied over your iTunes library files properly from your old library. If you copy over your old library files properly (iTunes library and xml library file- found in iTunes folder on computer)then it should re-create all of your old playlists, ratings etc on new machine.There are lots of postings on this support forum and internet about transferring iTunes library to new computer, may help if you give a bit more detail about how you copied over library in first place and then work from there.

  • How can I manage music library from iphone

    Is there a way to manage playlists (i.e. add a song purchased from iPhone) from the phone, and have it sync via WiFi to iMac?

    Not from a standard feature from the phone.
    Alternatively you can install a remote desktop like.. TeamViewer 7 and remote desktop the computer..
    But it would be alot easier to do it on the computer..

  • How can I transfer playlists from my Iphone to my Computer

    So I recently got a new computer and I just installed Itunes on it.
    My old computer broke and so I lost the playlists in it, but I still have all my playlists and songs on my Iphone 4.
    I searched up how to transfer playlists to my new computer and I found that doing a Back Up would work, so I backed up my Iphone to my new itunes and all the playlists with songs are on it.
    Everything seemed fine untill i realized that I cant do anything with my music apart from playing it on my computer.
    The songs play but i cant even drag them out to my desktop or anything.
    Is there anything I could do to move the songs and copy them onto a file on my desktop?
    Please answer asap, im frustrated and cant seem to find a solution.
    Thank You

    Not really. Frankly you should always keep at least two copies of your iTunes libraries on separate drives. Your iPhone could be too easily lost, stolen, damaged, or corrupted. Some of the paid transfer software does make it relatively easy to copy off the media but there are free solutions in that list too, the last three entries in particular.

  • How can I manage playlists for different users with home sharing?

    I have two teenagers with no taste in music, my wife who appreciates Abba my own music to manage across a fleet of devices.  My kids dont like Ozarks or Pink Floyd, and I would rather skin myself with a cheese grater than have One direction on my phone.  Does home sharing allow for different devices to sync different playlists???  And furthermore is the icloud Match thing worth the trouble???
    thanks

    After researching through the forums, I figured it out. You have to make sure you are logged in under the same account on both computers. At first I was logged under my account on my computer and logged in under my father's account on my father's computer. You have to choose one account to log in under on both computers and then you will be abler to import songs from both computers. If you do not log in under the same account, you will be able to listen to both computers' music, but not import.

  • How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone

    How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone but I cannot see a way to remove any of it

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple.

  • I have several phones on my itunes accousnt how can i manage to see only my information

    I have both my daughter and my sons iphone onmy itunes account.  How can I manage my storage to seeonly my apps and my music?

    I don't believe that there is a way to do that.  I would sugest using automatic downloads to keep your apps synced across both phones.  You might also want to note that just about any app you have ever download will be available for free download via icloud.
    Wish I could be more help.

    Hi Edward,
    You should still be able to manually manage the music on your iPhone within iTunes. Make sure that when your iPhone is plugged in, look in the Summary tab to see if “Manually manage music and videos” is enabled and you can even you turn off Automatically Sync when this iPhone is connected. Take a look at the first article below to give more information on that. As far as your other questions about calling someone, I have provided two options for you. If it is for feedback on iTunes, you can use the second link to give detailed feedback on what is going on. If you want to actually talk to someone, the last link has a list of numbers for you to call for any support or service that you may need.

  • I'm trying to use a iTunes card but when I put the code it says "error -1202". What is? How can I manage?

    I purchased an iTunes Card, and I have already an account: I've already used successful an iTunes card some days ago.
    But now, when I try to use the code of this new card it says "error -1202" and "try later".
    I've tried many times, but unseccessful.
    How can I manage?
    Thank you.

    It may be due to server stress, after all, it is the holidays and lots of people will be getting Macs, iPads, iPods, and iPhones as well as iTunes gift cards so it may just take a little waiting. Keep trying every day for 5 days, and if it doesn't work after that, contact the retailer you got it from or contact Apple. None of us here have any direct contact with Apple, so we won't be able to tell you an exact solution.

  • How do you manage Playlists on a manually managed iPod Classic?

    I'm going to get an iPod Classic since I have a huge music collection.
    Most of this music is not in iTunes, and won't fit on my computer.
    I have read that I can set iTunes to "Manually manage music and videos" for the device.
    Then I can simply drag and drop music onto the iPod from the Finder (e.g. from an external drive).
    But I also want Playlists on the iPod.
    (Not the songs in iTunes on some playlist -- just the listing of some songs.)
    Can I compose playlists (that reference the MP3 files I am downloading) in some fashion,
    and then drag them over to the iPod, and have it recognize them as playlists for the music
    files that I have dragged onto the iPod?
    I am imagining this would involve creating/editing some XML files with some magic names
    or extensions and dropping them onto the iPod.  (Or, when I do this "Manually manage..."
    thing and go into the device via Finder, will I see a folder there named "Playlists" or something?)
    Something like that?
    How do you manage Playlists on a manually managed iPod Classic?
    (I'm on Mavericks on the computer, of course.
    I could boot Windows or Linux if needed.)

    I have just found out how to do this:
    Connect your iPod:
    Under DEVICES you will see an arrow (on the left hand side, next to your IPod. If you are unable to display your songs the arrow will be pointing to the right. By clicking on this arrow it will point down, all of your songs will appear. Under Preferences uncheck Auto Sync then you can manually add / delete.
