How to sync when you have too much music

I have too much music on my computer to sync onto my IPAD.  How do I make lists only and where do I change the settings?

You can create playlists on your computer's iTunes via File > New Playlist or File > New Smart Playlist . Smart playlists can be updated automatically by iTunes e.g. you can create smart playlists that contain a particular music genre and they will be updated automatically if you add music of that genre to iTunes, or you might have a smart playlist of 5* rated tracks etc
When you the sync music to the iPad, then on the device's Music tab you can select which playlist(s) to sync to the iPad

  • What happens to the cube performance when you have too many UDAs?

    Hi,
    what's the impact on the cube performance if you have too many UDAs associated with the same level of members? Let's say 15 UDAs for each member
    If attribute is not an option, what's another way to help alleviate the data load?

    Hi,
    Adding UDAs to the outline doesn't impact the size of Essbase database.
    I've seen cubes with over 70 UDAs. And I think UDAs is the best choice to set load rules.
    But for considering of the implication of Dynamic calculations as reporting on UDAs can be slow. Define UDAs on sparse dimensions only.

  • Can someone tell me if there is a way to sync address book, calendar and mail ONLY, no music from Itunes to Iphone 4s from my Imac G5, OS 10.5.8? I bought a 16 GB and have too much music and no icloud on my machine (or my ipod 5th gen)

    I was told I CANNOT only sync part of my music from  my Imac Itunes, and since I have an ipod and itunes with the music, I don't really need it on my iphone, but if I sync all the rest, is it going to sync the music too! It is too much data if it does!!  And did Icloud take the place of "mobile me". If so can that be used to get some music if I want to from my hard drive mac or ipod?

    You were told wrong. You can sync only what you want to sync.
    Yes, iCloud is taking place of Mobile Me over time. MM will be turned off in June of next year.
    With iCloud, you can store the music in the cloud and download the tracks that you want to listen to without having to sync to your iTunes.

  • ICloud not syncing when  you have to turn it on

    Has anybody noticed that iCloud is not syncing on items that you have to specifically enable it for? Apps that have it on by default (such as Infinity Blade 2) work just fine, but Apps that you must turn it on to get it to sync do not (Cut the Rope Experiments, Zombieville USA 2, etc.)

    No, what I am saying is that the ones that have it on by default seem to work properly. The ones that you have to go in and enable the feature do not seem to save to iCloud once that option has been enabled. I've ran into several:
    Don't save to iCloud (Have to go in an toggle the setting)
    Anomaly Warzone HD
    Zombieville USA
    Cut the Rope experiments
    DO save to iCloud (Setting is on by default)

  • Ugh! How to navigate when you have a dead Mouse / Trackpad or accidentally turned off bluetooth

    Wow...
    Did a stupid thing and turned off bluetooth on my Mac and watched as my Apple Magic Mouse and Apple Magic Trackpad dissapeared and left me stranded.
    For those of you dead in the water unable to navigate your Mac here are some tips:
    Reboot your Mac and Zap your PRAM which will force the Mac to turn on bluetooth again.  Shut down the computer by holding the power button.  Hold down Command (the Apple icon 4 leaf clover key), Option, P and R keys together and hold them all down after you turn on the Mac.  If you do this before the grey screen you'll see the Mac chime and restart.  You can now let go of your keys and see if BlueTooth can now discover your devices.
    If you haven't already swapped out batteries in your Mouse, Keyboard or Trackpad please do so.  Be sure to not mix batteries of different types in the device.
    If you have keyboard access, but not your mouse or trackpad you can press the Option Key 5 times and then your numeric pad should move the mouse allowing you to navigate to things like System Preferences, Bluetooth to turn it back on!
    If you have a USB mouse you can plug it in, navigate your mac and turn bluetooth back on.
    If you have Apple Screen Share or Apple Remote Access you can use another Mac to log into your Mac and turn on bluetooth.
    Serious Accessbility Feature Requests for Apple (and yes I know this isn't the forum or place to put this, but it needs to be said):
    You need to go back and fix 10.8.4 to allow complete navigation of a Mac with a keyboard only.  You can use Command + SpaceBar and type System Preferences and then type BlueTooth, but once you are in the Bluetooth settings you can't use your keyboard to navigate to the ON option.
    You can't also navigate into System Preferences / Accessibility to turn Enable Mouse Keys (you need a mouse to turn this option on!).  The Mouse & Trackpad options should be made so that a keyboard could turn on/off this feature, because a lot of people trying to turn on this feature are folks like me who lost mouse/trackpad access!!
    Hopefully this helps others!  Hopefully Apple will do some basic UI improvements to bring back OS navigation for users who only have access to a keyboard or just a mouse/trackpad (no physical keyboard).  These kinds of tests should be part of every major OS release!

  • Too much music?

    Hi.
    I've been trying to import all the music I have stored on my computer to iTunes, but somehow iTunes select only a part of it. Sometimes an error shows too, saying iTunes failed importing/copying :C-disc or something. Could it be that I have too much music for iTunes to handle? I've got all my music in the My Music-folder, and it's grown to about 12GB... A lot, but should that really be a problem?
    I've tried importing files not choosing the 'import folder' but the other option, and I've read in this forum that in the old versions you could import several files in one go that way. I can only import one at a time. iTunes seems screwed up...
    I could really need some help with this, because as it is now, my iPod is empty...

    12 gigs is not too much for iTunes.
    By any chance, if you look in Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General, do you have "Copy files to iTunes Music Folder..." checked? If so, uncheck it and try again. (If you are short of free hard drive space, that option will have trouble operating.)

  • HT1296 How do you sync iphone and PC when you have two different iphones/users?

    How do you sync iphone and PC when you have two different iphones/users in house? I just tried to sync my iphone and cancelled sync becauase I saw it was updating my phone with my husband's apps! How do I make it so that sync can distinguish between my and my husband's phone?

    I sync two iPhones and an iPad with one iTunes library on the same computer and each device has different content. Each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes. You can transfer the same music and apps to each device or different music and apps.
    Are you sharing the same Apple ID or iTunes account?

  • Not getting all my music from iTunes I might have too much stored like ebooks how do I delete

    I have a iPod touch but have noticed I am not getting new music I purchased from iTunes onto my touch. Not sure if I have too much other things like books etc using storage, how can I correct this

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Does iTunes see the iPod?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
