How do I move one song from an itunes library to another on same computer?

We share one computer (Mac - powerbook) in the household. We have an Itunes set up with two libraries (so we can manage our own ipod playlists, etc.). On occasion we want to move a copy of a song over to the other's library (cause they like the song too). What is the easiest way to do this?

If you are using multiple libraries within the one Mac User account then use the File>Add to Library option and locate the song in whatever folder you keep your music in (possibly the iTunes Music folder). Simply add the song to whichever library you are in from whatever folder the song is located in.

  • I asked " how do I get my songs from my itunes library to my ipod?" and you said to sync to ipod.  Now, I did see that on the left hand side, but now it's gone.  What do I do? I tried "file" and sync, but it did not do anything.

    I asked, "how do I get my songs from my itunes library to my ipod?" and you said to sync it to the ipod.  I saw that at one time on the left side, but it's not there anymore.  I tried clicking on "file" and then on sync, but it didn't work.  The word was lighter than the others, so I figured I would not be able to click on it.

    If the iPod is no longer recognized in iTunes click here.  iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

  • How do I select a song from my ITunes Library and apply to a picture folder for a slide show?

    How do I selcet a song from my ITunes library and apply it to a picture folder for a slide show. I have a PC, not a Mac.

    Short answer:
    Click Hide Song(s), it is what you wanted to do...
    Long answer:
    iTunes in the Cloud is a feature of your iTunes store account that allows you to redownload or stream your past purchases. When you delete a purchased track that is downloaded to your computer (like the first one shown here) you are asked if you also want to hide the song from iCloud. This would remove it from the computer and also stop it showing up with the iCloud symbol as the other tracks from that album (which are not downloaded) do.
    If a track shows with the cloud symbol you can play (stream) it by double-clicking the title, or click the cloud symbol to download a local copy to your library. If you try to delete one of these tracks you get a slightly different message confirming that you want to hide the track. Clicking hide will remove the listing from the library and any other device that shows your past purchases.
    Should you want to retrieve any item hidden in this way at a later date use Store > View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Hidden Purchases > Manage.
    To hide all your previous purchases that are not downloaded to your computer use Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

    Connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via control-S on a PC, option-command-S on a Mac), and then use the Music tab on the right-hand side of iTunes to select which of your iTunes music to sync to the iPad's Music app

  • How can I delete a song from my itunes library which I downloaded to my Ipad device?

    I accidentally downloaded a song to the Ipad device from the cloud (from my Itunes library).  Can I delete this one song?

    I do have a very a very same question:
    I attach my iPad to my computer and open iTunes. Then I click on "iPad" (right upper corner).
    When I click on Music on the top line I don't see my music titles but only the list of iTunes albums I may want to synchronize.
    When I click on "On this iPad", I'm getting all music titles on the iPad. When I right-click on an item I'm getting "Play this music / Information / Wertung / show in iTunes store / show in playlist" (or so. I'm using a German version of iTunes). However nowhere do I get the option of Delete this music title. Please, how can I delete titles or albums from the iPad? Thanks in advance!

  • How do I share a playlist from my itunes library with another user on the same computer?

    I would like to share a playlist with another uuser on the same computer.  We have separate itunes libraries on the same computer. How do gey my playlist from my library to hers?

    I'm not sure, but maybe if you activate home sharing. It should also share playlists, not only files.
    The only other way I can think of is to export the playlist and import for the other user.

    How do i send a song from my itunes library- in an email??

    Lily,
    When you are writing the email, you attach the song file to the email the same way you would attach a photo or a document.
    If you don't know where to find the song file, right-click the track in iTunes and choose "Show in Finder."
