How do I add a playlist to iPhone with iTunes 11 manually i.e. with new iTunes 11.2.2.3

How to add a playlist folder to your iPhone manually so the music can be organized in separate folders (playlists). It's supposed to be simple and intuitive in Apple but I spent few hours trying to figure it out in my iTunes/searching in internet a solution; and I have a university education plus a PhD! And the question might be very standard. I have new iTunes 11.2.2.3  (June 2014) version and a standard PC.

Finely figured it out, solved! How to: Connect iPhone to PC, open iTunes and select your iPhone in the menu on the top, then "Library" in right top, afterwards go to "playlists" in the top menu. In playlist in left down corner by pressing "+" button adding "a new playlist". It will appear in right upper corner! (a little jumpy!). Then you can name your new playlist and drag/drop your music Mp3 files in this right upper corner area. Press done and sync in the end.

    Anyone know if I can transfer my playlist from iphone to Itunes on my laptop.
    I am not keen to sync my iphone to my new laptop in case it wipes out my playlist.
    My Computer had crashed so I am unable to export a playlist.
    I had backed up songs to icloud which are now on my laptop however without the original playlists folders?
    Any suggestions?

    Hello CDA ENT
    I would turn off the automatic syncing so that way you can see what is on your iPhone. From there, you should be able to see what is on your iPhone and then can export out the playlists and then import them back to your library. I would also recommend backing up your iPhone before going through with this process. To export a playlist, have it highlighted then go to File > Library > Export Playlist…

  • HT1386 how do I add a playlist from my desktop  iTunes library to my ipod touch 5th g

    Is it possible to add a playlist from my desktop iTunes library to my ipod touch 5th generation. I've tried dragging it but this won't work - it seems that I have to put the playlist in the box and then press autofill which then means the songs in the playlist now become part pf the library on my ipod touch and I have to make up the playlist again on my ipod touch!
    With the older ipods it was possible to drag a playlist directly onto them.
    Am I missing something?

    If you want to be able to just drag playlists or tracks to the iPod from iTunes, you need to turn on manual management in the Summary tab, and my guess is that this is off. Otherwise, set the playlist to sync in the Music tab.
    Regards.

  • How do I add video to my iphone with icloud

    How do I add videos (personal; not music or ripped) to my iphone when using iCloud? These used to sync over when I used itunes but with the transition to icloud, when I plug in to my computer (a PC), itunes wants to restore the phone or set it up again.

    That is with the Emoji keyboard.
    Add it with Settings > General > Keyboard > Keyboards > Add New Keyboard > Emoji
    Once added, you will get a Globe icon to the left of the Spacebar when typing.  Tap that to switch between keyboards.
    While using the Emoji keyboard you have categories of Emoji on the bottom you can select from and pages within each category you can swipe between, indicated by the dots above them.
    The Clock category is recently used emoji.

  • How do I add content to my iphone using itunes?

    I have watched the tutorial, and I know that once my iphone is plugged in, it shows up in itunes, I should be able to click on that, and then choose "add to" and simply drag and drop items onto my iphone.  However, the "add to" button just will not show up.  I cannot seem to figure out why.
    I thought maybe it had to do with selecting "manually manage music and videos" in the summary info of my iphone in itunes, so I selected that, but when I try and apply that a warning screen comes up saying that my iphone is synced with another itunes library on another computer (it is/was... I have another computer that used to be my primary computer) and it asks me if I want to erase this iphone and sync with this itunes libary... which I don't!! I don't want to erase what is already on my iphone, I just want to be able to add content to it?  Why is itunes so bloody difficult all the time?  Anyway, with this warning screen, I only have the option to either erase and sync, or cancel the change in my settings. 
    Anyway, help!
    Am I missing something?
    Thanks

  • How do I add a playlist in iPod?

    How do I add a playlist in my iPod?
    Whenever I add a new playlist in my iTunes (File > New Playlist), it doesn't seem to appear in my iPod. I tried synchronizing my iPod, because whenever I do so, the songs automatically appear in their appropriate folders (such as My Top Rated, Recently Played, and Top 25 Most Played). I'll show you what my iTunes bar looks like with my iPod connected:
    http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/3060/ituneszz6.png
    Notice that my "Favorites" playlist does not appear under my Devices/Lush (my iPod's name haha) section.
    Also, how do I make a "Recently Added" playlist where I don't have to manually copy and paste my songs? I mean, I know it's under File > New Smart Playlist. But I don't really know how to do it...
    I had: Date Added (then there's a bunch of phrases such as 'is', 'is not', 'is after', 'is before'...etc...)
    I don't know what it's talking about.
    Please help me. I do appreciate a speedy reply. Thanks!

    For recently added smart playlist set rule to 'date added is in the last 2 weeks' or any other time you like. 2 weeks is the default. It should have already been created for you.
    For you sync problem. I am not sure. You say that syncing starts automatically when iPod is plugged in. This indicates you are set to auto sync, it which case new playlists should transfer automatically. But, if you are set to sync selected playlists then you would have to select the favourites playlist for it to transfer.

  • How do I add a playlist from my itunes library to a friends ipod?

    How do I add one playlist from my library to their ipod, if possible? Without deleting or replacing any of their music with mine.

    You don't. When you purchase music that gives you the right to listen to it, not give it away to others.

  • How do I add a playlist to iTunes Match so that it'll appear on my Apple TV?  It was appeared on it before but ever since I added some CDs to the playlist, it won't show anymore.  Please help.

    How do I add a playlist to iTunes Match so that it'll appear on my Apple TV?  It was appeared on it before but ever since I added some CDs to the playlist, it won't show anymore.  Please help.

    When new content is added to a playlist it has to be updated for it to be available across devices. If it's content that isn't matched the playlist is removed from the cloud. Did you make sure to access store - update iTunes Match? It should do it automatically after a few minutes but the odd time I have to force it.
    Other than that may want to try reboot, log out/in.

  • I downloaded ios5 but never downloaded Icloud. how do i add icloud to my iphone

    i downloaded ios5 but never downloaded Icloud. how do i add icloud to my iphone now. When i try to updated it tells me i already have the latest version. Is there a way to add icloud without having to restore my iphone to my previous settings. Thanks!!

    iCloud is NOT something you download. I'm not positive how you add it after the fact, since I set it up from the get-go on mine, but try going into Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars and add an iCloud account.
