How can I transfer a Playlist to my mp3 player?

i have a cheap little mp3 player (Jensen), and i want to transfer an iTunes playlist (all my iTunes songs are already in mp3 format, btw) to the player. however, i can't click and drag a playlist to the mp3 player directly. the mp3 player instructions say to go to my iTunes music library (via Finder) and drag to the mp3 player.
but in the Library, my playlists don't show up.
if there was a way to have my playlists appear in Library, that would fix it. can this be done?
thx!

thank you, chris. cool, that works for the most part -- works well enough, anyway. it's a bit odd in that it won't transfer a big playlist (like 40 songs), but i just broke up the drags into segments. cool. it didn't retain the same order as my playlist, but who knows, might be my mp3 player (cheap thing, get what ya pay for...).
thx.

    A playlist is, of course, just a listing of music tracks, or did you want to copy the music too?  You do not transfer that from iPod to iPod, you synch the iPod to the same library used with the first one.

  • How can I transfer a playlist I have created to a cd?

    How can I transfer a playlist I have cated on my iPad to a cd for my wedding reception.  I feel it's safer than leaving my iPad behind the bar.

    You would insert a blank disc on your computer
    On iTunes you click the playlist you want to put on the disc
    Then find the button 'burn to disc'
    Click it and wait till it is done
    Then take out the disc
    Hope this helps :)

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • How can I use Iphone 4 as an mp3 player without a sim card until I get one?

    Hi,
    How can I use Iphone 4 as an mp3 player without a sim card until I get one? I just bought the phone and each time I try to switch it on to use the mp3 player, I cannot. It asks me to insert a sim card and I don't have a sim card yet. I was thinking I could use the mp3 player function of my phone until I buy a sim card.
    Thank you for your help in advance,

    Thank you, I understand, yeah, I knew that, my phone is factory unlocked and I am going home, which is obviously not in the States and I am thinking of buying a local carrier there. However, I still have 2 weeks before I leave and cannnot wait to start using my Iphone 4. I thought at least I could use the mp3 player function. So as far as I understand, I cannot activate it without a sim card. I have been using metropcs for about two years and it does not have a sim card. In this case, do I really not have another choice but wait for two weeks to listen to music? My Mp3 player just failed me and I really need to listen to music but on the other hand, while I can use my iphone as an mp3 player in two weeks, I don't want to spend more money on a new one. So, do you have another suggestion? For instance, can I use a friend's sim card to activate mine? Would this cause any trouble, when I go home and buy a local carrier? I think these questions might kinda sound weird to you, but first time with an Iphone, extremely excited to start using under my circumstances, I need help   thanks,

    I copied my iTunes music from an old computer to a new Macbook pro but it did not copy the playlists that are on my Nano. How can I copy the playlists and their content on the nano to the Macbook? If I automatically sync the nano from the Macbook, will it scrub the content and existing playlists on the nano?

    You need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

  • How can I get Itunes songs to my mp3 player (Sony Sonic Stage)?

    I've browsed through the forums and it seems a lot of people want to export Sonic Stage files to Itunes!
    I want the opposite. I just bought 100 songs from Itunes and can't get the m4a format changed in the Itunes advanced setting and I can't import the songs into my mp3 player (Sony Sonic Stage) because the files don't appear as part of my folder when searching (even though I'm looking for "all files").
    I tried the Windows explorer to drag and drop from the Itunes folder to my mp3 player (it is flash based but loaded through the software SonicStage)and it didn't work.
    I REALLY don't want to burn all of the new tracks to a CD to try to transfer them all back onto my mp3 player. Am I missing something really simple or is this a compatability flaw? I won't buy any more songs if it's the case but your assistance is GREATLY appreciated

  • How can I transfer my playlists from my iPhone to my new iTunes account?

    I am transfering my iTunes to my new Mac. I have successfuly gotten the music transfered over via external harddrive. How can i also transfer my playlists which do not show up without remaking them?
    Help would be appreciated.

    As sberman noted, it would be much better if you transferred everything from your old computer. This will import yoru iTunes library and everything (playlists, artwork, etc.)
    To copy playlists from yoru iPhone...
    Select the iPhone on the left sidebar in iTunes. (If you cannot see the left sidebar, menu View > Show sidebar)
    Click the triangle to the left of the iPhone name to view the contents of the iPhone.
    Right click on a playlist name then Export...
    To import this playlist into iTunes, menu File > Libraty > Import playlist and select the file you saved.

    I have an 30 gb ipod and would like to transfer my playlist to my 160 gb ipod.  My playlists were not purchased from iTunes, they were added from files from an old computer that does not work anymore.

  • How can I transfer my playlists

    Is their a way to transfer iTunes playlists after the music folder has already been transferred to another computer?

    If you cannot see the ‘My Music’ folder within
    the
    TweakUI drop-down selection, proceed on to the
    following:
    1 On the start menu go to ‘Run’
    2 Type in RegEdit
    3 Navigate in RegEdit to
    HKEYCURRENTUSER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVe
    rsion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
    4 Delete any entry for ‘My Music’
    Curiously, there is no entry for My Music in this
    panel. I don't know why. Maybe that's the problem?
    5 Navigate up the tree to
    HKEYCURRENTUSER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVe
    rsion\Explorer\Shell Folders
    6 Make sure there is an entry for ‘My Music’ and
    is
    pointing to C:\Documents and
    Settings\[username]\My
    Documents\My Music (you can edit the value by
    double
    clicking it)
    7 Close RegEdit
    8 Reboot
    iTunes &/or TweakUI should now be able to find the
    folder.
    Don't know if it will work on Win2000. But it's
    the
    only thing I have in my 'bag-o-tricks'.
    Best of Luck
    I will try this perhaps tomorrow. I'm a little afraid
    of screwing it up. For now, the workaround seems to
    work. Thank you so much for your help. I'll try
    tomorrow and let you know if I succeed.
    Hi Buegi,
    This procedure didn't seem to work. I think the level of tinkering is a little beyond me. In any case, the workaround solution of copying the .itl and .xml library files and placing them in my laptop each time a change is made is an effective and fairly easy solution. It's only downfall is that it's not "automatic." However, this is a small inconvenience in exchange for the great benefit of transporting my customized library data between computers.
    So, I will consider this issue resolved.
    Many, many thanks.
