How to create new genius playlists from existing music in library?

I tried the genius button for creating lists from existing music in my library. The problem is that it continues to show the first list created no matter what song I highlight then hit the genius button. Genius works fine for creating lists I can purchase online, but not new ones from my own music.

As you are running Windows you will probably get a better response from posting in the iTunes for Windows forum:

    Hi deva,
    write a class which implemets these methods
    CLASS lcl_event_receiver DEFINITION.
      PUBLIC SECTION.
        METHODS:
    To handle the toolbar on alv
         handle_toolbar
           FOR EVENT toolbar OF cl_gui_alv_grid
              IMPORTING e_object e_interactive,
    To handle the buttons on the alv grid
         handle_user_command
           FOR EVENT user_command OF cl_gui_alv_grid
           IMPORTING e_ucomm.
    endclass.
    Now Implement these methods.
    CLASS lcl_event_receiver IMPLEMENTATION.
    To handle the toolbar on alv
      METHOD handle_toolbar.
       DATA ls_toolbar  TYPE stb_button.
        CLEAR gs_toolbar.
        MOVE 3 TO gs_toolbar-butn_type.
        APPEND gs_toolbar TO e_object->mt_toolbar.
        CLEAR gs_toolbar.
        PERFORM icon_create USING 'ICON_INSERT_ROW' gs_toolbar-icon.
        MOVE text-010 TO gs_toolbar-function.
        MOVE text-012 TO gs_toolbar-quickinfo.
        MOVE ' ' TO gs_toolbar-disabled.
        APPEND gs_toolbar TO e_object->mt_toolbar.
        CLEAR gs_toolbar.
        PERFORM icon_create USING 'ICON_DELETE_ROW' gs_toolbar-icon.
        MOVE text-011 TO gs_toolbar-function.
        MOVE text-013 TO gs_toolbar-quickinfo.
        MOVE ' ' TO gs_toolbar-disabled.
        APPEND gs_toolbar TO e_object->mt_toolbar.
      ENDMETHOD.
       METHOD handle_user_command.
    In this form, check the function code(e_ucomm has the function code), based on that do the required action.
    as i said yesterday(i.e for appending a row, deleting a row, modifying a row)
        PERFORM user_command USING e_ucomm.
      ENDMETHOD
    endclass.
    Before calling the alv method, create a object of this class.
    DATA :
          gref_event_receiver  TYPE REF TO lcl_event_receiver,
          gv_tables_alv          TYPE REF TO cl_gui_alv_grid.
          CREATE OBJECT gref_event_receiver.
          SET HANDLER   gref_event_receiver->handle_user_command
                        FOR gv_tables_alv.
          SET HANDLER   gref_event_receiver->handle_toolbar
                        FOR gv_tables_alv.
    check this program for event handling, it is the similar way
    demo_abap_objects_events
    Hope u understood this.

  • ITunes 11: How to create a genius playlist without saving it?

    In iTunes 11, how can I create a genius playlist without saving it? This was possible in iTunes 10; I could select a song, hit the Genius button to create a genius playlist based off that song, then if I wanted to, I could click a "Save" button to save the playlist. Otherwise, by default the genius playlist would be overwritten the next time I chose "genius" on a different song.

    In the "carrot menu" next to each song, I see an option to "Start Genius."
    When I select that, the list of songs in my Up Next list changes, but there's no "real place" to see the Genius List like the Genius list in the previous version of iTunes. If you select this from a song that's not currently playing, it will start to play (as in the prev itunes).
    I echo your frustration here. So many things seem to be half-way between one model and another.

  • Can't create a Genius Playlist from most 2011 songs.

    For some reason, I cant seem to make a Genius Playlist from what seems like any song bought in the latter half of 2011.  Is anyone else having this same problem? Any help is appreciated.

    I've had the same problem since having my 4S on AT&T and now on my 5. Siri responds with "playing similar songs" but the previous playlist or shuffle keeps going. This used to work but I'm not sure which iOS update broke it.

  • HT1386 how do I add a playlist from my desktop  iTunes library to my ipod touch 5th g

    Is it possible to add a playlist from my desktop iTunes library to my ipod touch 5th generation. I've tried dragging it but this won't work - it seems that I have to put the playlist in the box and then press autofill which then means the songs in the playlist now become part pf the library on my ipod touch and I have to make up the playlist again on my ipod touch!
    With the older ipods it was possible to drag a playlist directly onto them.
    Am I missing something?

    If you want to be able to just drag playlists or tracks to the iPod from iTunes, you need to turn on manual management in the Summary tab, and my guess is that this is off. Otherwise, set the playlist to sync in the Music tab.
    Regards.

  • Turned off Genius, how do I restore Genius playlists from ipod to my iTunes

    Hi,
    I turned off Genius in iTunes by accident and my Genius playlists have been deleted. They are still on my iPod. I'd like to know if they will automatically sync back to iTunes when I connect my iPod or have I lost them for good?

  • How do I erase genius playlist from iPhone?

    Since I upgraded my IPhone to iOS7, several Genius Playlists randomly appeared on my device. I have ITunes match off. I have disabled Genius on ITunes, and synced my device without success. There are 13 empty playlist on my iPhone and I just wish to erase them. How can I do this so that next time I sync the devices, the wont appear again?

    I too have exactly 13 empty Genius playlists above my regular playlists.  It does not give the option to delete them.  I just want to get rid of the 12 duplicates.

  • How do I move a playlist from my iTunes 10 library onto my iPod

    With the new iTunes I'm finding it impossible to move a playlist from my computer to my iPod. I realize I could manually re-make the playlist on the iPod but that's dumb. help, please!

    If you enable the sidebar it will look more like iTunes 10 and to sync as The roming gnome says Same as always
    Either use the device sync pages or drag and drop the playlist onto your device in the sidebar.

  • How to activate or import playlists from newly moved iTunes library on an external hard drive?

    I have just moved my whole iTunes library from my notebook to an external HDD, due to space constraints. I followed the Apple steps to do so, and finally got all my songs and the rest to appear in the player.
    However, my custom playlists do not appear in the playes. All my devices have a combination of various playlists loaded onto them. I have also just got the iPhone 5s and want to load similar playlists onto the new phone.....but my playlists are missing....
    This will take me days to recreate........any suggestions please?  (i have already removed the iTunes directory from the laptop   )
    Thx

    Sorry, by mapped i meant what you described above...changing my designated media folder to the one on the new EHD.
    I did try holding in the option/alt key as suggested by apple elsewhere in the forum but only opened the a window indicating where the shortcut file is located i.e. the iTunes.exe properties window. I tried the shift key too as well as several other but could not get the window asking me to choose a library.
    Tried to copy a screen grab in but it doesnt allow me to.
    When i opened the player after moving the folder there was nothing in my libraries except for a few purchesed songs and movies saved on icloud. I got my music in by going to file>add folder, and selected the music folder on the new drive. This "imported" my music to the player.
    I must mention also i am using Win8 and the latest version of iTunes, but i live is South Africa and ive noticed my laptop keyboard keys/functions on the HP are different from previous computers i have used.
    Where should the playlst files reside when using an EHD? Still on the main computer or on the new EHD?

  • I have to be on wifi to create a genius playlist?

    i have different playlists on each of my devices. Today I tried to create a genius playlist from a song and first my iPhone froze up, then after closing the music app all of my playlist I had in my phone disappeared and all of my playlista from other devices loaded, then I got a message to connect to wifi to create a playlist. It then created a playlist, but after I turned off wifi the playlist disappeared. Tried it all again, only this time I got a message that rhere were not any songs that matched the song that I wanted to match.

    Hi CFWeatherman,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communiites. 
    It sounds like you are not getting iTunes Match playlists when you are not connected to Wi-Fi. You do need an internet connection. See the following  from the iTunes Match troubleshooting article:
    If you're using  an iOS device and aren't on a Wi-Fi network, turn on 3G cellular data for iTunes Match. Fees might be associated with downloading over cellular networks; contact your wireless carrier for details. 
    For more information and clarification, see the article:

  • Hello, are there many others having problems with creating Genius Playlists from their iPhone 5's

    Hello People,
    are there many others experiencing problems creating Genius Playlists from their iPhone 5's???
    I have a 64GB Black iPhone 5 and a 32GB White iPhone 5, I have recently performed a fresh install (wiped phone memory and installed Apps individually again) yet even after this and no less then several calls to Apple I am still unable to create a genius playlist on either phone. The message I receive after hitting the Genius "star" is "The operation couldn't be completed. Operation timed out" Operation timed out."
    I have tried this also on 3G and receive the same message........

    I wish Apple would have provided more detail on how it worked. I wouldn't have posted this if I new that SMS & Mac Calling had nothing to do with Bluetooth pairing.
    You mean like this? Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite
    Please note how Apple articulates this though.
    Check your settings
    Check the following settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
    Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn on Wi-Fi if necessary.
    Make sure your iOS devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network by going to Settings > Wi-Fi and comparing the name of the network each is on.
    Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
    Go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps and make sure Handoff is on.
    Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
    Sometimes things have to be explained in more detail for the general consumer who has been conditioned for decades to think about wireless  cellphone audio / light data to [anything other device else] connectivity in a certain fashion. That is to say Bluetooth dependent ...
    For the non-technical person, which overwhelmingly many Apple users are, they would see that bulleted point and think if Bluetooth is not paired and active, then they would not received the full scope of their Continuity features.
    It would have been better for the copywriter who wrote this to (*) footnote this entry and explain that while Bluetooth recognition may be necessary between Yosemite and iPhone, SMS Push to iMessage and Mac Calling does not require an actively paired connection as these functions are dependent on iCloud and both devices being registered on the same WiFi network.
    Thank you to all who helped me get my mind around and figure this out.
    It has also opened my eyes to how iCloud has become a critical link in Apple's overall walled garden  and business strategy.

  • How do I transfer ipod playlist from old ipad to new ipad?

    How do I transfer ipod playlist from old ipad to new ipad?

    Is this a playlist you created on your old iPad, or a playlist you created with iTunes on your computer?
    If the former, you should have been prompted to transfer the backup for your old iPad to your new iPad the first time you connected your new iPad to iTunes on the computer used for syncing your old iPad. If not or you declined, you need to restore your new iPad from the backup of your old iPad.
    If the playlist was created with iTunes on your computer, transfer the playlist from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPad via the iTunes sync process.

    how can I transfer my playlists from my old ipod to the new one

    Export playlists from iOS - http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1113751
    A playlist is, of course, just a listing of music tracks, or did you want to copy the music too?  You do not transfer that from iPod to iPod, you synch the iPod to the same library used with the first one.
