How do I organize my songs(files,playlists) in my zen nano p

I have read the FAQ about organizing in a USB mass storage player, but I still do not understand how to do it. I have a Zen nano plus with GB and I would like to put my songs into a certain order and/or in 'playlists'. In the FAQ it says to click on the folder where the tracks are that you want reordered, but I do not have a seperate folder where tracks are. Is there also a way to make folders to put songs into If so, how? Also, when a song is playing and I hold down the 'scroll' button a screen comes up that says root with a folder in the left hand corner and two arrows on either side at the bottom with no other words. What is this? Does it have anything to do with making different folders? Most of my songs that are in the Creative Mediasource Organizer are not under the PC music library but in Zen Nano Plus(on the left hand side of organizer) and only show when my zen nano plus is connected to the computer, is that supposed to happen? Will it help in making folders/reordering if all the songs are in the PC music library? How do I put them there(the songs that are in the library are also in the Zen Nano Plus area)? Please help.

Right click the header bar. Select "Date Added" to add it if it isn't already a sort category. Then click the heading to sort either in ascending or descending order.

How do I convert AIFF song files in iTunes to ACC files to fit iPod?

How do I convert AIFF song files in iTunes to ACC files to fit iPod? My AIFF files are appartently bigger per song than ACC files. How do I convert an AIFF song or playlist in iTunes to ACC files so they take up less room. Right now I can only fit 50 songs as opposed to 500 songs. The songs are already in iTunes as AIFF files. Most of the songs I inport are original songs from CD's that are already AIFF files. How do I convert them when going into my iPod?

Thank you so much! I now know how to convert AIFF audio files to ACC files, and I can keep the original AIFF file! One other concern though -- how do I tell which is the bigger AIFF file and which is the new smaller ACC file? iTunes doesn't have an obvious place/window that tells me the audio file size. Is there a way to tell the two apart. It looks like it creates an identical file name, not even a "copy" extension or anything -- so it's impossible to tell them apart. Is there another secret here?

How do I find duplicate songs/files in iTunes 11?

How do I find duplicate songs/files in iTunes 11?
Earlier versions of iTunes had a simple menu option to click on.
All duplicates would then be listed. Cannot find this option now.
Regards ..... blayk.

If you want to free up your memory, maybe first checking to see if you got duplicates. -
From the File menu in iTunes, choose Show Duplicates. iTunes will then list all of the duplicate titles in your library.
If you delete a music in the iTunes folder, then when you try to play that particular music in your iTunes, it won't work as iTunes wouldn't be able to find it. However, when you import music on to your computer, always import straight into your iTunes, no where else.

I have a problem with itunes opening. I have downloaded the new version and it ask to repair or remove itunes I chose to repair. This has not solved the problem. If I remove the program how do I get my songs and playlist back?

How do I add certain songs and playlists to my iPhone but not others?

Hi all,
I recently installed iTunes 11.0 onto my MacBook Pro, and I yearn for the days of far simpler content management. All I want to do is add certain songs and playlists from my computer onto my iPhone without re-syncing the entire thing (every time I do, sound files that I created for work find their way onto my phone, and I have to re-delete them every time). But I can't figure out how to simply add ONE song or ONE playlist to what is already there. In the previous version, it was so simple--just point, click, and drag. Now I can't figure it out and I feel like an idiot. Can anyone show me how to do such an absurdly simple thing?
Thanks,
Neil

When you sync your phone with your laptop (or other device that has the songs you want), go into your music preferences and choose "Selected playlists, artists, albums and genres." This should allow you to select the three songs you want from your library. Make sure to click or tap on "apply" or else the changes will not be saved. Let the phone completely sync and those three songs should be in your phone's music library.
Hope this helps!

How do I get my songs and playlists from an external hard drive into iTunes?

I have got all of my songs and playlists on an external drive from my PC. I just bought a mac and can't understand the directions to get my songs and playlists up and running in iTunes...Can anyone help?

If you backed the library up by drag-copying it, drag-copy it to the same location on the new computer. If you backed up an entire iTunes library, you can also drag it to any location, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down, and specify it.
If you used a backup product, check that product’s documentation.
The song files must be located on the computer’s internal drive for them to play without the external one connected. If needed, organize the library in iTunes.

How do I fix broken song files in iTunes with songs transferred from my iPod to my computer?

Recently got a new computer but when I tried to transfer the files in My Music>iTunes to my new computer I realized that only about half the songs in my library have folders in the iTunes folder, even purchased songs (no idea why). I could download mp3s of every broken song and re-do it that way, but I would rather figure out a way to restore the files from my iPod and save a lot of time.
I enabled disk use on my iPod and dragged the folders from iPod_control>Music to a folder on my desktop but the songs are all assigned random four letter names. I don't know if iTunes will be able to detect the right file to restore each song if I just direct it to this folder (using the prompt when you try to play the song), not to mention that the random songs are broken up into 49 separate folders so I would just have to randomly guess which folder to direct it to (I have 1993 songs). If I drag all the files into iTunes will it just create doubles of each song? I don't care about play counts, I don't know if that's stored in the song file, but it's not a big deal for me to replace all the songs in iTunes with the files from my iPod as long as all the files work.

Thank you so much! I now know how to convert AIFF audio files to ACC files, and I can keep the original AIFF file! One other concern though -- how do I tell which is the bigger AIFF file and which is the new smaller ACC file? iTunes doesn't have an obvious place/window that tells me the audio file size.

How does iPod Mini store songs and playlists?

Hi,
I am a new user of iPod Mini.
I have some music in my music library in iTunes and I have created a few playlists. Some songs are in multiple playlists. When I copy over these playlists, will these music files get copied over twice or only once?
I am worried that this will eat up space on my iPod and hence I am wondering whether to remove all dups in my playlists.
Can anyone please advise? I would expect that iPod dumps all song files at one place and the playlist is just a pointer to these various files. Can someone confirm if this is true?
Thanks,
SS

Welcome to the Apple Discussions, Suryanarayana!
Can someone confirm if this is true?
Confirmed.
Have a look at:

Although the article is about playlists in iTunes, it's applicable when they're transferred to the iPod.

How do I organize individual songs by artists name in my iphone5?

Hey, the pre-installed music player in my iphone5 doesn't have an option for me to organize individual songs by artists. It is organized by song names.
I'm sure I can do this in itune. How do i do this?
Also I have another question. When I play my music and tilt my phone horizontally, this screen saver that has tiles of albumns pops up. Sometimes when I close my walletcase the case touches this screen and it plays the albumn that it touches. When I tilt it vertically, it is gone. How do I disable this function?
I thank you for your support.

I don't believe it is possible to sort by Artist name, sorry.
As for your second issue, why not just turn off your screen? If that for some strange reason won't work, try locking portrait orientation in Control Center.

I just bought a new Nano. How do I transfer the songs from my Shuffle to the Nano and then give the Shuffle to my husband so he can open an itunes account of his own?

I just bought a new Nano. How do I tranfer the songs from my Shuffle to my husband so he can open an itunes account of his own?

DaisyDoodle,
The songs on your Shuffle should still be in your iTunes library. That means you should just be able to connect your Nano to the same iTunes library and sync it just as you would with your Shuffle. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
As for preparing the Shuffle for your husband, just restore it via iTunes and then let him sync it to his own iTunes library or if its the same iTunes library, let him configure it to sync only his content.
Here are instructions on how to restore the Shuffle if need be.

How do I put synched songs into playlists via icloud? (without a computer)

Now that synching is over the air, how does one put songs downloaded on to a Mac into a playlist on an iPhone? (or vice versa}? This is easy through iTunes with a wired synch, but I don't know how to do it if there is no "mother" iTunes app open, as OTA.
Thanks.

You can also create playlists on the phone/ipod app. Go to "playlists", tap on "create new playlist" give it a name and add the songs.

How Do I Back-up Song Files after Burning Them to iTunes?

I'm in the process of burning copies of all my CDs into iTunes, and when I'm done I want to get rid of some of the CDs. However, I'd like to be able to back-up copies of the good songs onto some blank CDs in case in case I ever lose my hard drive.
What I'm not sure about is whether I can do this by burning these songs onto a CD as "data" files or does it have to be a "music" backup? If I burn them as "data" I can fit MANY more onto a CD, but is it possible to restore these files into a playable mp3 format from a "data" file, should I ever lose my hard drive?

Well the other 2 options in iTUnes besides "Audio CD" are data and mp3 CD. If you do a MP3 cd it will only burn MP3s no AAC files (Which is the format bought songs from itunes are in) so doing a data CD will fit your needs better. when you burn a data CD, you can burn all the formats onto the CD, the CD will basicly be a harddrive now with a backup of your songs and anyother files you put on it.
You can find out how to back up here http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/backup/
