How do I import existing .m3u playlists to the Zen Mic

I imported all of my PC-based .m3u playlists into the MediaSource Organizer. The playlist names now appear under "My Playlists" in the Organizer, but I can't import them into the player! When I double click an imported playlist nothing happens and when I trie to drag and drop them to the player's playlist folder it freezes up for 30 seconds but nothing happens.

How can I import an m3u playlist into iTunes that intentionally contains duplicate tracks? I want the duplicates in this case.

For instance, if my M3u file looks like the 2 lines below, only one copy of the mp3 file is imported. I'd like the same track to be imported twice.
Back To Black.mp3
Back To Black.mp3
btw, the reason I'd like this to work is that I use a separater track in playlists between groups of similar tracks. This separater is not being imported correctly as is being unhelpfully recognised as an unwanted duplicate.
Any advice appreciated.

I just did the following.
Created a m3u file with a series of tracks with one entry duplicated.
Made a new empty playlist in a test iTunes library which did not contain the files and dragged the m3u file to that playlist.
It created a duplicate playlist entry for that one duplicated track but of course it points to the same file. If you really want iTunes to duplicate the file you will have to trick it into thinking it is a different file. Using your library management preferences (which are identical to mine) you will have to duplicate the file in Finder so you really do have two files and add it again. Perhaps if iTunes was managing the media it would not behave that way and might add the file twice since dragging to iTunes with default preferences settings just places a copy on the iTunes folder and leaves the original in place, so you'd be dong hte equivalent of dragging twice (I'd have to test to check this since I don't use default settings either). With your settings it just refers to the original wherever it is. Hopefully I've phrased that well enough.

How do you make a playlist on the Zen Mic

I can't figure it out, whenever I try to make a Playlist it adds all the tracks on my Zen to the list. What the proper way of doing it without having to delete all the songs from the Playlist?

are you talking about an on the go playlist or using some kind of software? The on the go playlist is explained with a sticky at the top of the forum.

Import m3u playlist into creative zen V p

Hi,
Quick & dirt: does exist any way to import an m3u playlist into my zen V+?
I tried the "import external playlist" feature in mediaorganizer, but when I try to transfer an error message is prompted: "not enough space on device", it's like the MO is trying to phisically transfer the files into the player rather the playlist, wich is supposed to be an index of files...
How do I do transfer just the playlist? Am I allowed to perform such operation?

At this point I'm start to thinking that importing an esternal playlist ain't the right way to create and manage a playlist on zen V.
Well, just to know: what do you folks use to index / group certain songs in your library? I use media monkey to manage my huge library (50 Gb circa), and i rather use one single mediaplayer just not to mess with such library than -say- media monkey *and* creative mediaplayer.
Also i'm using smart SW named 'music IP mixer' to easily create playlists on the go in a nice way, even nicer would be to use the same playlists on my zen, but I didn't work it out since.
And, talking about nice things, that would be fantastic if someone from the tech staff would nicely answer to this very simple question: am I allowed to usem3u indexes on my zen V+?
Thank you.

Importing multiple m3u playlists to iTunes

Hi,
I just downloaded the new iTunes 7. I was hoping that now I can import multiple m3u playlists to iTunes. I have a big collection of mp3 and m3u files and the lack of a way to import the playlists makes iTunes pretty much unusable and the prospect of buying an iPod remote.
The Import dialog allows me to choose only one file. If I drag and drop more than one m3u files to iTunes, it just merges the playlists into one (this is a VERY stupid design if you ask me.)
I am dissapointed that it seems this is unchanged in the new version.
Please someone tell me that there's a way to do this.

A playlist is simply a list of songs.
In order for iTunes to put a song on a playlist, it must be in the library.
I don't quite understand what you mean. But iTunes does put the songs in an imported m3u playlist in the library and create an iTunes playlist. The problem is that there is no way to import multiple m3u playlists at the same time while keeping the lists separeate. Right now, it merges the lists into one.

Importing multiple m3u playlists and automatic adding

I just bought a new ipod so i'm trying to get my media player library to itunes. I create a lot of playlist, all in m3u format and i want them to be compatible with itunes. The only thing I managed to do is to import 1 playlist at a time, selecting them all doesn't work. Moving them from explorer to itunes doesn't work either.
is there a way to get all my playlists in Itunes in 1 go? Also is there some sort of 'watch folder' option that automaticly adds new playlists? As a die hard WMP user I kind of assumed that this was standard..

How do I import existing song libraries to my I tunes library?

How do I import existing song libraries to my I tunes library?

Due to recent security issues and identify theft (mostly due to phishing scams), the iTunes Store seems to be requiring more frequent verification of address information, even if you have a balance from a prepaid card. Either just go through the verification process or, if you have a credit card entered and don't expect to need to use it anytime soon, go into the Payment information in your account and set the payment method to "none" which should then stop the regular requirements for verification. If it still asks - my account does - just click through the buttons and it should verify without problems.
Hope this helps.

How do I import an image directly from the internet without printing and scanning it in first?

You can also Ctrl click on the image, save the image to your desktop and open it in Photoshop.
1.
2.
3. Open in Photoshop by double-clicking on the saved image on your Desktop or Cmd o in Photoshop.
I don't see any point to copying and pasting from a browser into a new file in Photoshop.
If you want to put an image onto an already open image in Photoshop, use the File > Place... command and select your saved image.

How can I import photos inro Organiser in the same order as they are in my files?

How can I import photos into Organiser in the same order as they are in my files?

You can do a change to your files you want to import so they are in order that your version of PSE uses.
One of the benefits of PSE is that you are no longer limited to specific order or locations of pictures. If you want a spefic order for display purposes create an album and your order will be maintained in the album. Other than that I keep my display on Newest first(I have PSE 11) and rarely change it.

How can i import my contact list from the Nokia Suite to my I phone?

how can i import my contact list from the Nokia Suite to my I phone?

Oscar, keep in mind that my suggestion could not be the best one.
I have a copy of Nokia suite on my Windows XP partition on my Mac, just to test it.
The second icon on the upper row explains as a syncronisation with Outlook.
Try to do it and later you should use the iClod manager from Apple and Sync Outlook to ìiClod and to any iPhone iPod and so on.

How can I import not only apps from the old iphone to the new iphone, but also the content of the apps?

You can sync apps as you normally would, but I do not believe this copies over app specifc data (i.e. saved game status/scores).
You can always restore your new device with a backup from your old device.
