On my iphone 4s I have 2 songs in the purchased category that I want to manually move into an existing playlist.  I can not figure it out.
If the existing playlist is a regular (non-smart) playlist, then you can edit it directly on the iPhone. Just select the playlist and you should see an "Edit" button at the top, above the songs.  If you don't see that, then it must be a smart playlist since those can't be edited on the device. Once you tap the Edit button you would then navigate to the song you want to add and press the blue + sign to the right of the song, then press Done when you're finished.
One caveat though, if you auto-sync your iPhone, the changes you make will not be preserved -- the playlist will revert to how it was next time you sync to iTunes.  So if you want to edit a playlist on your iPhone and then transfer it to iTunes, you have to create a new (empty) playlist on your iPhone, add the playlist that you wanted to edit to the new playlist, then add or delete more songs to the new playlist.  When you auto-sync, the new playlist will transfer to your iTunes library.
But if you manually manage your iPhone, the playlist should remain in its edited state even if you connect to your library (but admittedly its been awhile since I tried manual mode).

    how can i create an account in itunes from Bangladesh ?

    If you go to the artist's/group's page in the store then you should be able to do it e.g. search for the artist in the store, and on the right-hand side of the results page there should be list of content categories that match that search, and below it a link for the artist
    Click on the artist's name to go to a screen listing their items, and at the top right of that screen there should be a 'share' icon'
    Click on that and on the popup you should have an option for 'alert me' (I haven't used it but I assume that it works).
    You can see what alerts that you have, and remove them, by logging into your account via the Store > View Account menu option - on your account's screen there should be an Alerts link

  • How can i create a playlist in iTunes and have the playlist show up on iPhone 5

    I painstakingly spent a considerable amout of time creating a playlist in iTunes on Windows, and now when I sync my iPhone, and open the Music app, I do not see the playlist at all.  When I select 'On this device' in iTunes, I can see the playlist listed, but a large number of the songs are greyed out, and do not play in iTunes.  These are simply songs I selected from my iTunes library into an iTunes playlist, and I sync'ed my iPhone saying transfer only selected playlists, etc, and now the playlist does NOT show up on the iPhone.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • How do I create a ringtone in itunes for my iphone?

    Set your iTunes import preferences to AAC encoder / HQ
    Select the track you want to convert - right click - get info - Options
    Select Start/Stop Time: Make sure that the resulting playtime is less then approx 39 sec - OK
    Right-click again on that track: Create AAC version
    Delete the resulting file from your iTunes library
    Move it from Trash to your Desktop
    Rename it from .m4a to .m4r
    Double-Click that .m4r file

  • How can i create a playlist on my website for iphone users?

    Hi.
    We are using quicktime to present our videos to iphone and ipad customers. We just use a free plugin at the moment. At the moment we are only able to show single videos but we want to provide playlists. Ist it possible to load a playlist?
    Somewhere i read that this is possible with a export function of the Quicktime Full-Version? Or ist this maybe possible with final cut? We use this software to cut our videofiles.
    Thanks

  • How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

    How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video,  and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?  I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem.  The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
    I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one.  I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

    I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )

    I can't see the gift playlist arrow next to any of my playlists. How do I give a playlist with itunes 10?

    Try this: 
    1.  Create your playlist in iTunes.
    2.  Select the playlist in the source (left) column.
    3.  Go to the Store menu > Share playlist...
    4.  Click the "Gift" button in the dialog box that appears.
    5. Wait while iTunes checks that all the playlist's songs are available in the store.
    6.  Fill out the gift form that eventually appears.
    That should work.
    Regards.

  • How do you create a playlist from personal videos?

    I download music videos and save each one as a FLV file.  I view them by clicking on the file icon and AMP starts automatically.
    So my question is how can I create a playlist so that I can have AMP play one FLV file (a music video in this case) and then automatically play the next one and the next and the next...
    Similar to what iTunes does.
    Can this be done?

    Plug it into iTunes and create a playlist by dragging and dropping the songs you want into the new playlist

  • TA47831 How can I import a playlist to iTunes?

    An old article (http://support.apple.com/kb/TA47831) explained how to export an iTunes playlist to an .m3u file and reimport it.  This functionality no longer works with the newer version of iTunes (I'm running iTunes 10.6 on Windows 7).  This is presumably why the article has been retired and is no longer supported by Apple.
    If I export a playlist, change its name, then reimport the result is an empty playlist.  Here is an example of one of the lines from the .m3u file:
    #EXTINF:196,My Happiness - Ella Fitzgerald
    \\NEF\music\Ella Fitzgerald - 50 Classic Hits (disc 2)\Ella Fitzgerald - My Happiness.mp3
    As you can see my file is an mp3 on a remote server ("nef") and works perfectly well in the "Music" section of iTunes.
    What I really want to do is to import some playlists that have been generated elsewhere (for example using a script to identify all the US hits of the 1980s with the word "power" somewhere in the lyrics).  I figured the easiest way to do that would be to work out what format of playlist iTunes would be able to import and generate one of those, I was somewhat surprised to discover that iTunes can't even import a playlist it has just exported.

    Hi Steve,
    I was wondering this myself and a quick Google found your post here along with an Apple support article published three weeks ago. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1744?viewlocale=en_US
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • 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.

  • Please walk me thru creating a playlist in iTunes for internet radio stations

    Please walk me thru creating a playlist in itunes specifically for internet radio. The itunes help page is not detail enough.

    Create a new playlist
    Open iTunes
    Click the + button in the lower left corner of the window.
    Name your playlist
    Add radio stations:
    On the left side of the iTunes window, at the top is the "Library" group. Under "Library" should be an item called "Radio." Click that to open the radio listings. If you do not see "Radio" in iTunes, go to the menu bar at the top of your screen and open iTunes > Preferences. In the preferences window, under the General tab, make sure Show > Radio is checked and click OK.
    Find a station in the Radio listing.
    Drag that station from the listing on the right side of the window to the new playlist you created on the left side, and drop.
    You now have a playlist with a streaming radio station in it.
    To add stations not listed in the iTunes radio listings:
    Locate the stream URL (if you need further help, post which radio station you want exactly)
    Copy the URL to your clipboard (command+C)
    open iTunes
    In the menu bar at the top of your screen, click on Advnaced > Open Stream...
    Paste the URL (command+V)
    Click OK
    Your new radio stream should now appear in a playlist called "Internet Songs." Open that playlist.
    Drag the station from the Internet Songs playlist into your own playlist.
