How to manually transfer .m3u playli

About a year and a half ago I got a Zen Vision and loved it, but unfortunately after it dropped and the power button broke the selling store (Best Buy...) did not have any more to replace it under warranty, nor did they have the newer model coming out (M I think it was), so I had to go without a player for about a year after that.
Not a month ago I got a Zen X-Fi 6 GB, the closest model I could find to that Vision I loved so much in the store. (This time, NOT Best Buy.) I haven't really had the chance to fiddle around with it to get the content on it to my liking until now...
After dealing with several headaches with Creative Centrale, I've finally got it to the point where I am able to add files without problem as I please. However, I still have not figured out how to add playlists. The few I had at the time of first synch (and consequently all media transfering, including several thousand pictures I did not want on there) are still there, but I want to add more, and I can't figure out how. I am vehemently opposed to the idea that the only option to upload playlists is to synch everything again; I can't stand having to waste an afternoon deleting unwanted files every time I make a new playlist.
There is the option of manually creating the playlist within the player itself, but to do so would take nearly as much time as synching everything and deleting the unnecessaries, as the list I'm trying to upload is a series of several CDs, tallying over 00 tracks, and with their order no longer being alphabetic it would be a chore to try and re-create the playlist within the player. (The tracks are renamed to show up in order in Explorer, from 0-220, and subsequent alphabetical use to indicate which CD the track is from. Without the X-Fi showing those file names, the mp3s are completely jumbled up...)
Please, tell me that someone out there knows how to manually force a .m3u playlist onto the Creative Zen X-Fi 6 GB. I mean, COME ON Creative! I could drag and drop playlists to use in one of your mp3 players a year and a half ago, so why can I not do so now?! >
Other technical things to know: Everything seems to be working fine with Creative Centrale, latest firmware update fixed problems with that; I'm running on Windows Vista Home 32-bit and use WinAmp version 5.53 for all my mp3 and playlist needs; only reason I'd ever use Windows Media Player is for .midis and .wavs, otherwise I find it an extremely inefficient program; but I digress...

I have a Muvo with playlists that I want to import to my?new X-Fi. I'm not sure if they're the same format (.m3u), but I have been unsuccessful in getting on the X-Fi. I'd love a solution for this myself.....

How to manually transfer movie or music on iPad to computer

Hi,
If I buy a movie or music on my iPad, how do I manually transfer the movie or music to my computer? It seems I'm forced to sync, which results in me losing the purchased items on my iPad and then all the items on my computer are synced to my iPad. Can't I manually transfer items from iPad to computer, just like I can from computer to iPad? Thank you.

I have a similar question. I just synced and really have no idea what I did. Everything I paid for on my iPad2 is now in iTunes on my PC and also on my iPad2 except one movie.
One movie transferred to my PC but was apparently removed from my iPad.
What happened and how do I get it back on my iPad? If I download it again on my iPad2 will I have to pay for it again? I tried and it said "You already purchased this to you want to buy it again? The salesperson in the store said if I accidentally delete something I paid for I can go ahead and download it again, and I won't be charged. Can anyone verify this?
Also a podcast transferred over to my iPad which I want to delete. I don't see anywhere I can delete this.

How to Manually transfer info to Leopard

I recently upgraded from 10.4.11 to 10.5.8. My clone of 10.4.11 has a lot of mail messages that I would like to transfer to mail to store my archive live. Is there some way to do that?

then see this link on how to move your other data manually
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6185507
specifically, for transferring Mail do the following. quit mail and copy the whole folder /users/username/library/mail AND the file /users/username/library/preferences/com.apple.mail.plist from the old install to the new one. then start Mail and it will be as it was on your tiger system.
btw, I noticed you marked my first response solved. I think you may be misunderstanding how the system of marking posts helpful or solved works.
I certainly didn't solve anything in that post. I just asked you some questions. the only person who actually gave some specific advice in this thread was kappy.
in general, you should not mark a thread solved until it actually is. marking a thread solved tells other posters that your issue has been resolved and disinvites further responses.

How to manually transfer songs from iMac to iphone

Hoping someone can help. I have a macbook air, an imac and an iphone. The imac has my main music library, simply made up from my own CDs uploaded into it and individual songs and albums purchased off itunes. I simply want to be able to move songs and albums between the 3 devices and so far have not been able to do this. This is extremely frustrating as not only have I bought and paid for all of the music (itunes have done especially well out of me!), but these are expensive and sophisticated devices and yet they will not let me listen to my own music on them!
So to keep it simple, here is what I would really appreciate some help with. Currently my iphone is synced with my macbook air and therefore has some of the macbook air itunes library on it. The iphone will not accept any songs from the imac, purchased or downloaded form my CDs and I cannot delete the songs on the iphone that I don't want. They keep popping back up when I do manage to delete them, then have to be downloaded again just so I can delete them again! So ideally I would like to wipe all of the music off my iphone and start again. And starting again I would like to simply be able to upload my own CDs from the imac in my itunes library on the imac onto the phone, and to upload songs and albums downloaded from itunes on the imac, onto the iphone.
Despite my furstration up until now I have been a big fan of apple products, but not being able to manage my own music on my own devices in a simple and uaser freindly amnner is driving me crazy! The intelligent and intuitive navigation and functionality that apple has built its reputation on completely falls down when it comes to itunes and music, for me at least and to add insult to injury they are making a fortune off people like me on itunes!
Any help gratefully received.

How do I manually transfer music with the new itunes update for Windows? I don't want to sync my library and lose all of my music for what I have in my current library.

How do I manually transfer music with the new itunes update for Windows? I don't want to sync my library and lose all of my music for what I have in my current library.

The same way it was done in every previous version.
Connect the device to the computer.
Right click on the device in iTunes and select Transfer Purchases.
Why would you lose any content by syncing with iTunes?
Is this not the computer that the device is normally synced with?

Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5?

Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5? My iMatch is turned on and I can direct downlad my music to the iPhone from the Cloud; however, I want to direct import All of my music from iTunes to my iPhone 5 via the connecting USB cable and it is not working. Yes, I have tried restarting both devices, and no autosync is not working nor is is it providing the avaialbile option to select music in iTunes on my Mac to then sync. Please help. Thanks

Please disregard. I figured it out. Answer for anyone else running into this problem: You have to turn off iTunes Match on both devices. Apparently, if you activate iTunes Match it deactivates your abiltiy to direct sync.

How do I manually transfer all iphone contacts to my mac

I'm about to order a 4g and I want to transfer all the phone numbers and info to my MBP before I sell my 3GS. How do I transfer my contacts to my mac? I have never used address-book and I do not have a Mobil me account.
I have my iTunes sync to manual as I do not like the auto sync. I do not see my contacts in iTunes so I would like to import them, edit them, and then manually transfer them to my new iphone 4G next week...

You need to sync your iPhone contacts with the Address Book on your Mac, which is as designed and intended.
Before the first sync for this data, enter one contact in the Address Book on your Mac. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.
Syncing contacts with the Address Book is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
The same applies before syncing calendar events with iCal if you aren't using iCal on your Mac for calendar events.

I would like to manually transfer all my iMovie content from SL to LION. How do I do this manually?

HI!
I want to manually transfer all of my iMove data ( projects etc) from SL to LION.
What is the best way for me to do this?
Does the data need to be stored on an external drive so an OPTION / click OPEN is performed or is it emerly a matter of dragging and dropping a folder?
Thanks

Hi
or is it emerly a matter of dragging and dropping a folder?
NO - No No No
Moving Event's and Project's
Connection - Either connect one Mac in Target mode to the other via FireWire. Or use an external hard disk !
(Target-Mode - Start one Mac e.g. laptop - BUT keep T-key down during full up-start - Now a FW-symbol is jumping around the screen and it will work as an external hard disk when connected to the other Mac)
A. The External Hard Disk - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work for Video. UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange works for most other things but not for Video whatever program is used (iMovie or FinalCut)
B. Should be a FireWire one as USB/USB2 performs badly to me and especially when filling up
C. Do never Move or Alter any folder named
• iMovie Event's - or -
• iMovie Project's
on DeskTop/Finder - as this will result in iMovie losing connections to them and repair can be anything from hard to impossibly
D. Moving and Copying must be done within iMovie application and Events to Events - and - Project's to Project's.
E. Moving Project's to Event's - Do not work for me - I have to export project as a QuickTime movie then Import this intoEvents.
Event's window can show two faces
Like this
or like this
from one hard disk Event - You can move it to the other hard disk
You can not (at least not me) move Event to Project or other way around only
Event to Event and Project to Project

How do i transfer 2011 Birthdays to this year (2012) in iCal

How do i transfer 2011 Birthdays to this year (2012) in iCal?
It seems I have to do it manually at the moment?

iCal and the Address Book are integrated.
If you want the birthday for each one of your contacts that you want to track birthdays for entered automatically in iCal every year - year after year without having to do anything extra, enter the birthday for each contact you want this for in the Address Book. In iCal preferences, select to show the Birthdays calendar. Done.
If not, keep doing it the way you have been doing it which will require copy and paste each birthday in iCal from last year to this year. Repeat for next year and the year after that. Or go into each Birthday event in iCal one by one and select repeat every year for the event. Have fun with that since your question is based on iCal only and you are not interested in learning anything new that makes this process easy and automatic. A contact's birthday should be entered with the rest of the contact's info in the Address Book, and Apple includes a simple option with one mouse click in iCal to bring the birthday entries for each contact in the Address Book over to iCal automatically each year - year after year. But pay no attention - your question is about iCal only.
Good luck.

How do i transfer my itunes library from 1 computer to another

i have an old computer i wanna get rid of how would i transfer my library

You might try iPodCopy, from: http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/ipodcopy/
It is not expensive, and also not perfect, but I used it in a similar situation. (My biggest complaint was that about 5% of the songs were skipped, and I had to find manually update these.) Still, was easier than re-entering my whole library from the CDs.

How do I transfer video clips from iPhoto to iDVD? I followed the instructions in the help section but it did not work.

I would like to make a DVD from video clips I took of my Grandchildren. I went to the help section and it stated to click on the video clip, then click 'share' and choose 'send to iDVD'. That option was not available on the share button. How to I transfer to iDVD. Thanks for any help.

Do you plan to put each video clip in iDVD to be playes separately? If so then here's how:
1 - open iDVD and select your theme.
2 - click on the Media button at the bottom right and then on the Photo button at the top.
3 - in the search window type in ".mov" (or the extension of the video clips you plan to use).
4 - all of the video clips with the extension you entered will be displayed and you can drag them into the menu area at the left.
Another way would be to put all of the video clips in an Album and click on that album to view and drag the clips:
Remember, the order that they are added to the menu will be the order that the buttons will highlight when you scroll thru the buttons with a DVD player remote.
This will give you a menu with a separate button for each video clip (up to 12 in a menu with some themes).
If you want to play all of the clips one after another you could create a slideshow in iDVD with the "+" button at the bottom and drag the video clips into the slideshow as you would still photos. Set the slide duration to anything but manual and don't apply any transition.
That will let you play all of the clips sequentially.
