How do you add a playlist from windows media player to itunes

I want to put a playlist from wmp on to itunes

I can't see a way to export M3U playlists from WMP or import WPL playlists into iTunes. I could probably write a script to import directly from the WPL, but there is no point reinventing the wheel if this works for you: http://sourceforge.net/projects/wplm3uconvert/

  • Playlists from windows media player into itunes.

    I used import playlist and it doesnt work. Like my computer doesnt even register that i clicked that. Help please!

    Open itunes.
    First go to the edit menu, select preferences, click the advanced tab, and select importing.For best song capacity on the ipod, make sure that the encoder is set to "Import using AAC encoder", and "High quality 128 kbps". Hit OK.
    Then go to file menu, go to "add file to library" or if its a whole folder go to "add folder to library". Go through folders to find the songs (usually in "My Music" )
    Select the song or songs you want to add, then hit open. To select more than one song from a folder, click the first one, hold shift, then click the last song you want to select.
    A box will come up saying "one or more of the files you are adding are wma files",click ok and itunes will convert them into aac format (this could take a while if you have a number of songs).
    It should be noted that this will only work with unprotected WMA files, not ones bought off of the windows media store or imported to windows media with protection.
    Hope this helps

  • Import library and playlists from Windows Media Player without duplicates

    How do I import all the music and playlists from Windows Media Player into iTunes without creating duplicates?
    I add the folder containing all my music to iTunes and all my music arrives nicely. I begin importing playlists and the playlist comes over with all the songs duplicated in my library. Most of my songs are on playlists but some are not.
    After adding the music folder (approx 7000 songs) then all the playlists, my iTunes library now contains over 13,000 songs. The increase is due to the duplicates being created as the playlists are added.
    If I skip adding the music folder and just add the playlists I get most of my music without as many duplicates but I am missing the songs which are not on any playlist. Thanks.

    If it' sprotectged WMA files, no you can't add them.
    If they are plain WMA (like RIPped from a CD) you can File -> Add to library and iTunes will import and convert them.

  • How do I download music from Windows Media Player to itunes 7.5?

    How do I download music from Windows Media Player to itunes 7.5? I finally figured out how to download itunes to my computer but know I want to get music from Windows Media Player onto iTunes. What do I do? PLease Help!

    Within iTunes use the add folder to library option available on file menu. Select the folder to add. iTunes will add the file to iTunes library. Depending on settings, iTunes may copy the file to iTUnes folder location.

  • Moving music files from windows media player to itunes

    when I first got my ipod, only half of my music files moved from windows media player into itunes. Is there anyway I can import the rest of the music from windows media player into Itunes? I have tried using the import function and add file or folder to library and they do not seem to work!

    iTunes will not accept Window Media player tracks that are protected. If you imported them off your own CDs, did you check the option to apply protection to them? If so, your only choice is to re-rip those CDs.

  • Import music from windows media player to itunes

    I can't import my mp3 files from window media player to my ipod. Can anyone tell me in detail how this is done?

    You'll first need to add the MP3s to your iTunes library since the iPod is not compatible with Windows Media Player. You can use, for example, the File > Add to Library menu to do this.

  • How do I move my files from Windows Media Player to my ipod?

    Please help! I cannot figure out how to move the songs in Media Player over to my ipod.

    Hello 03bprice!  Follow the instructions below:
    Add files already stored on your computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12485 and http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12493
    Do either of the following:
    Drag a file or folder from the desktop to the iTunes window.If you add a folder, all the files it contains are added to your library.
    In iTunes, choose File > Add to Library, locate a file or folder, and click Open.
    By default, adding items to your iTunes library places a pointer to each file in the iTunes folder; the original file remains in the current location. For information about copying files to the iTunes folder instead of creating pointers to them, see Change where your iTunes files are stored. If the file is an unprotected WMA file and you have Windows Media Player Series 9 or later installed, iTunes makes a copy of the file and adds it to your iTunes library. The original WMA file remains unchanged. You can’t add protected WMA files or protected WMV files to iTunes.

  • HT1849 how to import music and video from windows media player

    I want to import my music and videos from the windows media player, and I want to import or put it all in my itunes library. How do I do that. I know there is a button.
    Am I missing it? Can someone help me please. I am working off of a laptop. If that helps anything.

    In Media Player music list, make sure the "Protected" column is displaying. Sort by that column. Any songs that are protected can not be converted to iTunes. You will have to re-rip the CD with the WMP setting to be to not protect the songs.
    I had the same problem with album covers and could never fix it. I just gave up. I spoke with people at Apple stores and nothing they suggested worked.

  • Zen V Plus sync of playlists from Windows Media Player

    I am using automatic sync on windows media player 0 to my Zen V plus. The music is transferring, but I do not see the playlists being shown on the Zen player. Any ideas how to get them to sync as well so I don't have to build them on the player?

    After trying things out for a while, I found that when you sync using Windows Media Player, the playlists selected will be on the Zen V plus screen for you to select. It will not display on the folders that list on the Windows Media Player display. I don't know why, but the important thing is that the playlists do end up on the Zen V plus so that you can select and play them.

  • Is there an easier way to convert files from Windows Media Player to iTunes

    I have many gb's of music in my Windows Media Player...now that I have an ipod I want to move the music over. Do I really have to do this one file at a time or is there away to move over whole albums at once? Is there a way to transfer the entire library at once? Do I have to reload ALL of those CD's? PLEASE HELP !!!!

    Maybe you can help me out too. I have copied over 250 gigs of music in WAV loss less files to windows media player. On media player I see the artist, album etc. However, when I add the file, either as the song or whole album only the track number and song title copy to the itunes. How do I get all the other information like genre, album title, artist. If I convert to applelossless I still do not get anything and when I search AppleSTore for album art nothing happens. Please help.
