How do I display my music and my playlists simultaneously?

With the new iTunes software, I can't figure out how to have a playlist open at the same time as my music library.

The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only ex eption is itunes purchases: File>Deviecs>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your old computer or your backup cop of your old computer.

  • Preventing Podcasts from being displayed as Music and\or songs.

    How can I prevent Podcasts from being displayed as Music and\or songs?

    Welcome Mr. Lutz,
    Note: This is for Windows version of iTunes because this is the OS I'm running. Even with diferent OSes, the process should be similar enough.
    1.Open iTunes
    2.Connect your iPod
    3.Highlight it in the source list
    4.Go to Edit, then Preferences
    5.Click on the iPod tab
    6.Click on Automatically update selected playlists only
    7.Click which playlists you want on your iPod
    8.Switch to the Podcast tab
    9.Select automatically update all podcasts
    10.Click OK
    11.Disconnect your iPod
    12.Now, follow steps 1-7 with one of your daughter's iPods.
    13.Now, switch to the Podcast tab
    and select Do not update podcasts
    14.Click OK
    15.Disconnect the iPod.(Repeat Steps 12-15 with the other mini.
    This should allow your iPod to update your songs and podcasts, and allow your daughters to update their songs and no podcasts.
    Happy iPodding,

  • My wife and I have 2 new iPhones and also have a mac book pro and an iMac. How can we share apps, music and contacts between all these?

    Use the same Apple ID and password for purchasing in all these devices.

  • My husband and I have separate iTunes accounts and multiple devices (iPads, iPhones, iPods etc) how do we share our music and apps between our devices if we have different iTunes accounts.

    Help! My husband and I have multiple devices (iPad, iPhone, iPod ) that we we have linked to individual iTunes accounts ie he has his account with iPad, iPhone, PC and iPod linked/sync and I have my account with iPhone, iPad, iPad mini, PC etc.. How do we share our music and apps across/between our accounts?

    It probably means that only one of you can use iCloud or at least sync calender/contacts with it. I would guess that you could manually manage the other phone as you have before.

  • My dad and I shared an iTunes account for years and now I'm getting my own, how can I keep my music and apps?

    My dad and I shared an iTunes account for years and now I'm getting my own, how can I keep my music and apps? I'm worried that I won't have any ability to access my apps and music. We have our itunes separated on different computers, so I have all of my stuff separated from his, but I don't know how to put them in my new account.

    Well... there really isn't any fully legal way to do this.
    The simplest solution is to continue sharing the same iTunes purchasing acct, but create different ones for iCloud (assuming that's why you needed to do the split).
    Slightly less kosher: Burn AUDIO CD's, of the music then copy them back to your new account.
    BE sure to do this from original acount, To keep the music info, you'll  copy over the CDDB file (in prefs somewhere) - since this maintains the data of CDs that you've had in library.... (it isn't carried over onto a user created CD.)

    How do I download my Music and Movies from my Apple TV to my MacBook

    You can't, unless you bought them from the iTunes Store on the Apple TV.
    The Apple TV can receive content only, it does not sync content back, except items that you have purchased on the Apple TV.

I have enabled home sharing in my iTunes account, put in username and password, clicked on creat etc. But the homs sharing icon doew not appear in the left side of iTunes. So I got stuck. Any further ideas?

    Well, this question really belongs in the iTunes forum, which is where you will get fast answers.
    Just go to iTunes Preferences.  Click on the General icon.  Set When you insert a CD to Ask to Import CD.  Click on Import Settings.  Set Import to MP3 decoder.  Make sure you're using Good Quality.
    This should deal with your CD's.
    With your current music, as long as it does not have DRM restrictions (older iTunes Music did), select the song, right click on the song (or group of songs), pull down to Create MP3 version. 

  • How do I transfer my music and apps from my ipod touch 4g to a new computer?

    The hard drive on my old computer failed so I no longer have access to my itunes library that was saved onto that computer. Is there anyway I can transfer my music and apps to my new computer? I would prefer not using one of those shady online tools... I don't want to lose any of my music or apps since I have some paid ones on there. I'm afraid that if I connect it to the new computer then everything will be lost. If that happens the I'll never be able to get any of my music and apps back (or at least it'll be real difficult). Can anyone please please please help me?

    If you sign in to your Apple ID then your apps will be visible by clicking the "purchased" tab at the bottom of the screen.
    Music you've purchased from Apple will appear automatically if you sign in to your account. Other music you'll need to download from your PC assuming you're not subscribed to iTunes Match.
