How to purchase songs in my friend's playlist that I don't already own

I asked my friend to send me the xml file from his playlist that I liked. I had expected iTunes to show all songs in his playlist with the option for me to sample and purchase anything in his playlist that wasn't already in mine.  Instead, iTunes just complained about missing files and gave me a blank screen. Is there any way to do what I had expected would happen?  Note: I do NOT wish to authorize my computer to play his songs. I want to sample from his list and purchase what I like from it.

No.

  • Is it possible to have a window open for my library and the Itunes store so that I can toggle between the two?  I want to check my library before I purchase songs to make sure that I don't already own them.

    Is it possible to have a window open for my Itunes Library and Itunes store at the same time so that I can toggle back and forth between the two.  I want to check my library before I buy songs to make sure that I don't duplicate.
    Thanks!

  • While deleting an album, I hit select all, instead of deleting just that album the entire genre was deleted. I was able to get back all the purchased songs , but none of the cds that were in my collection. Any way to get those songs back?

    Assume you were in itunes?  Also assuming windows?  Two paths I can think of.....
    1) Normally anything deleted from itunes goes to recycle bin.  If you did not pick remove from computer probably still in itunes music directory.  Just add back.  Note to speed things up you can use add directory.
    2) Use restore previous version of music directory.  To be safe I'd back up current directory, do a restore, then swap back original directory and use restored directory off line.
    I do not know of nice solution, I like to hack my way through.

    You can transfer all the iTunes purchased music from the iPod Touch to your new computer.
    From iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer:
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod has your purchased content from the iTunes Store, you can transfer the content to a computer that is authorized for your Apple ID.
    Note: This option only works for content you purchased from the iTunes Store (as opposed to content from other sources, such as CDs you may have imported). For content you did not purchase from the iTunes Store, synchronization occurs in one direction only. This means your content can be copied from a computer to your iOS device, but cannot be copied from your device to a computer.
    Open iTunes.
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize Computer.
    In the dialog that appears, the Apple ID button is selected by default. If you have an AOL account, select AOL.
    Enter your Apple ID or AOL account and password. Then, click the Authorize button.
    Connect your device your computer. If it is synced with another iTunes library, the following may appear:
    If this alert appears, click Transfer Purchases.
    If you were not offered the option to transfer purchases:
    After connecting your device to the computer, its icon appears in iTunes. Click the icon.
    From the File menu, choose "Transfer Purchases from 'Your device name.'"

    how do I format a table in Pages so that I don't have to keep reformatting every time I go to a new cell?

    Hello Fruhulda
    Clicking a Pages table don't give the same result than clicking somewhere in the table then pressing cmd + a.
    The first scheme selects the table (height square handles displayed)
    The second one select every cells (no handle displayed).
    If we try to fill cells with a color in case 1, only standard cells are filled.
    If we try to do the same in case 2, every cells (headers included) will receive the color.

  • How do I delete songs from my playlist that I don't want and didn't download

    I have 5 songs on my playlist for iTunes that I did not download and don't want them, but don't know how to delete. Tried swiping from left to right but when I push delete I just get the cloud. Does anyone know how to get rid of these from my playlist?

    Hello nothappy14,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to delete a song.  The cloud icon to the right of the song indicates the song is being streamed from iTunes in the Cloud and not actually on your device.  Because they are not on your device, they can't be deleted, but you can choose to hide these songs so that they don't appear on your iPhone.
    You can hide the song by accessing the iTunes Store on the computer:
    To hide your purchases
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
    Go to the iTunes Store.
    Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
    Choose a content type by clicking on Music, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from top.
    Hover your cursor over the item you want to hide.
    You will see an "X" either to the right or left top corner of the item.
    Click the "X" to hide that item. A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the "X."
    iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    You will need to quit and relaunch the Music app on your iPhone after hiding the purchase on your computer before seeing the changes.  Close the Music app using the following steps:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app's preview up to close it.

  • How to Change Song Order in User-Created Playlist

    I have several playlists that I've created by just adding a bunch of songs to. I then would like to go into those playlists and change the order that the songs are listed in so that they play in that new order (they are initially listed in the same order that I added them to that playlist - i.e. the 1st song added is the 1st song in the playlist, then 2nd song aded is listed as the 2nd track, etc.), but I can't figure out an easy way to do that. I cannot drag a song up; if I want to move it up, I have to drag every song above it down (and then they get all out of order!). If I try to drag a song up, it goes to the very bottom of the playlist when I release the mouse button!
    How can I change the order of songs that I've added to a playlist? There's got to be an easier way!
    Thank you,
    Dennis

    I already had the arrow pointing up in the track order header column, but your suggestion gave me an idea - I went up to "View" and then clicked on "Hide artwork column". That did the trick - I can now drag songs up and down in my playlists to change their order to my heart's content!
    Thank you!

  • Songs In My "Most-Played" Playlist That Shouldn't Be

    Okay, this is a weird one to try to explain, so please bear with me. On my iPod classic, I have a smart playlist I created called "Top 2000 Most Played Songs," which is, obviously, a playlist of the top 2000 most played songs on my iPod. Being a smart playlist, it always updates as play-counts change. When I look at this playlist in iTunes, it is all perfect and has all the right songs. When I look at this playlist on my iPod, it has about five or six songs at the bottom of the list that should not be there... i.e., they are songs that used to be in the top 2000 most played, but have since been pushed out by other songs. However, the playlist clearly only has 2000 songs on it, so there are five or six songs missing that are supposed to be there. However, the songs that are missing are not the most recent additions, because I have been able to find them in the playlist. So I don't know what is missing. I have tried copying to play order, and it still has those five or six songs at the end of the playlist. I don't want those songs on the playlist. Why is it doing this?

    The most likely thing is that your songs that you expect to appear in the bottom of the list, still don't have more play-counts than others.
    What you are trying to say is that iTunes does not updates your playlist. So try the experiment. Activate "Plays" column in iTunes. Connect ipod, let it syncronize. Look at the bottom of the list, see what is there. How many counts for the songs you expect in the list? More than for the others? Less or equal? As I see in my library, the songs in the bottom have the same play-counts, some of them will be in the list, some not (alphabetically?)
    Then disconnect ipod and check the playlist on the device.
    Also you can add new conditions to your smartlist to filter bad songs.
