HT1386 Where do you drag and drop playlists onto iphone in new itunes

Where do you drag and drop playlists onto iphone in new itunes

I don't blame this person whatsoever for making the assumption that the iPod portion of his phone would work similarily, if not the same, as the iPod.
But it does work the same as the iPod. As with an iPod, you can sync all songs and playlists, or selected playlists, or you can manually manage music and videos. You can also select sync only checked songs and videos under the Summary tab and uncheck the songs in your iTunes library that you don't want transferred to your iPhone. This can be used with syncing selected playlists - if you want to remove a song from your iPhone that is in a selected playlist without removing the song from the playlist in iTunes, you uncheck the song in the playlist in iTunes followed by a sync. There is no difference with an iPod in this regard except for the iPhone not supporting disk mode.
In order to manually manage music and videos with an iPod, you must select this under the Summary tab for the iPod sync preferences, and the same for the iPhone.
And if you resent his rant, why respond and waste your volunteer time on this post?
I can waste my time anyway I see fit. If you don't like it, don't respond.
And not everyone can afford to replace this type of investment on a whim.

Don't tell me it's clicking on the boxes next to the songs in the Library page, *because that's when I will start asking for my money back...*
Or the iPhone can be sold to someone else with the proceeds used to purchase a different phone. I haven't read any reports about someone having trouble selling their iPhone used at a good price even if damaged.

  • Drag and drop videos onto iphone

    Basically, I can't for some reason drag and drop videos onto my iphone 4. I manually manage my music and vids, songs I can drag and drop, but when it comes to videos, nothing happens. I have converted my videos to mp4 h264 format as required and still no progress. I cant think of what to do now. Someone help!!!
    I'm using windows xp.
    thanks!!

    Now I tried downloading other albums that are in my library but not on my phone and those didn't work either. Could it be my phone or itunes that's not working?

  • Can you drag-and-drop music onto the iPhone in iTunes?

    New to iPhone and only just braking it in, as it were.
    It looks like the only way I can upload music onto my iPhone is via synching my entire library onto it. Which, if I may say so, is an incredibly stupid and debilitating design - amongst other severe shortcomings of the iPhone I am slowly discovering over time. Is it not possible to drag-and-drop like the good old iPods?
    If this is indeed the only way to load music, what's the easiest I can pick out my favorite 2000-or so tunes and put them on there?? Don't tell me it's clicking on the boxes next to the songs in the Library page, because that's when I will start asking for my money back...
    Cheers

  • I can't drag and drop songs onto my iPod from iTunes. (Manual transfer is not working.)  Please help!

    Normally, I just select songs and I'm able to drag and drop them from my library onto my device.  I have an iPod Touch and an iPhone 4.  I want to drag and drop my songs from the library onto my iPod Touch.  I have already selected manual upload instead of automatic sync.  I tried suggestions from the Mac message board (since other people seem to have had a similar issue), and their solutions didn't work for me.  I have restarted both iTunes, my computer, and reconnected my iPod multiple times.  I don't know what's going on, and I can't find a fix anywhere in iTunes help.  If anyone knows what to do, or has any suggestions, please let me know!  Thanks.

    Update: I seem to have fixed the problem!  I went to the "summary" section of my iPod after clicking on the device on the left side of iTunes.  I checked the box that allowed me to "manually manage music and videos" and applied this option.  The songs are syncing!  And, yay, they're playing on my iPod now!  Hopefully, this helps anyone else who might have this problem.  There might be other issues, but this is working for now.

  • Unable to drag and drop playlist to iPod

    I have a 30 GB iPod Classic which I manage via iTunes on Windows 7.  I manually manage which songs, playlists, etc, are synced to the iPod, since my music collection is somewhat bigger than 30 GB.
    I recently made a new playlist on iTunes with a lot of songs (about 2,700) and attempted to drag and drop the playlist onto my iPod.  Sadly, iTunes won't allow me to do so, and does not offer any diagnostic or error messages to tell me what the problem is.  Just the preceding day I was able to drag-and-drop a playlist with about half as many songs onto the iPod.  All or almost all of the songs on the new playlist are already on the iPod, and there is 3 GB of space free on the iPod.
    Any idea what the problem is?  Is there a limit to max playlist size?
    Thanks in advance,
    -PT

    OK, it's actually a latency problem:  when you drag and drop a REALLY LONG playlist to an iPod, it doesn't immediately figure out what you are trying to do (or else it's polling the music list on the iPod and comparing it to the playlist, I don't know).  So you have to drag the playlist and hold it over the iPod icon in iTunes until the iPod icon opens up, then drop it.

  • How do you drag and drop using mac laptop?

    how do you drag and drop using mac laptop?

      As said above, you can click down, ons use the other finger to drag the object.  I had turned on the setting to use three-finger drag, so you can drag objects with three fingers.  To change gesture settings, go to the system preferences>trackpad.  Here you can also see all of the gestures of Mac OS X.

  • How do you drag and drop samples in the ex24 on pro x now that the edit button next to the option tab is no longer there?

    how do you drag and drop samples in the ex24 on pro x now that the edit button next to the option tab is no longer there?

    Well, it's aggravating seeing foolish limitations to the program. Having some experience in education, offering a professional program in a limited version is condescending to the user and has never been proven to help students move forward. Plus, some of the choices made to keep Logic simple are confounding... "removing the edit button on the EXS24"?  That's silly!  

  • In iTunes I can't drag and drop podcasts onto my iPod anymore.

    In iTunes I can't drag and drop podcasts onto my iPod anymore. I can still drag and drop songs onto my iPod and I can still drag and drop podcasts into other playlists. I've tried restarting my computer and my iPod and I've also checked for software updates for the iPod and iTunes. Help?

  • Can't drag and drop files onto Applications in Dock since upgrading to 10.6

    Ever since my wife upgraded her iMac (2 GHz, 2 gigs) to 10.6, she can no longer drag and drop files onto certain applications in her dock to open the file. She has to go into the application and go to "open file" or whatever.
    For example, if she has a Word doc on her desktop, she cannot drag it onto the Word icon in her dock.
    Any advice?

    You have many issues with your and your wife's machine(s). Everything you've posted works here. Reinstall Snow Leopard, repair permissions, and see if that fixes things.

  • Homesharing won't drag and drop songs onto a shared library

    Homesharing won't drag and drop songs onto a shared library. Both computers are authorized and both have "homesharing" turned on. Any help?

    Rather than dragging and dropping, try this.
    In the computer you're moving music to, select the home shared library you're moving music from, as per the following screenshot:
    Select the songs you want to transfer. Now click the "Import" button down in the the bottom-right-hand corner of the screen, as per the following screenshot:

  • Drag and Drop Files Onto EXE Icon

    I was wondering if there is a way to have the user drag and drop files onto the .exe icon and this would initiate the program to do something with those files automatically?
    For example: Some PDF convertor programs allow you to drag and drop documents, images, etc. directly onto the PDF convertor icon on your desktop and it will automatically convert them all to PDF's, without the user even having to open the program.
    Can this same type of functionality be done with a Labview EXE file?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank you! That did it.
    The only side note that I would include to others that are trying this is to make sure you have the "Pass All Command Line Arguments to Application" box checked in the "Advanced" section when you build the executable.

  • Dragging And Dropping Files Onto A CD / DVD In Tiger ?

    When I wanted to make a data CD in Panther (and earlier OSs) I simply dragged and dropped the files onto the CD icon.
    If you do that in Tiger it appears that all you are copying is an alias (with its little curved arrow).
    I have discovered (by experiment) that to copy onto a CD you must hold down the Option key while you drag and drop.
    Is this correct and if so can anyone tell me why the method has been changed?
    Ian.

    Hi Ian
    Aliases appear because you are not moving the files but burning them to a disc. The file will burn. You do not need to press the option key. All is explained in your Mac OS Help under "Burning a CD or DVD". You might also want to read about burn folders in the Help

  • Finder - Can't drag and drop files onto stacks on the desktop anymore.

    Hi,
    This might sound like a strange question but in the past I was able to select a group of files in a window and drag that group to the desktop where they would stack upon one another creating a neat stack of all the files in one place. Now when I do this they drag onto the desktop and remain spread out all over the place. It's not terribly difficult to deal with except if I'm dragging say, 30 photos onto the deskop. Before they appeared stacked upon one another and I could simply drag one off the stack one by one. I am however experincing harsh symptoms of OCD because I can't figure out why. My co-worker's Mac is the same as mine (both running 10.8.2) and his files stack just fine.
    I've done a fresh install after having no luck and it's till doing it.
    This is really bumming me out. Any suggestions are very welcome. I've even booted into safe mode and it still won't stack drag and dropped files onto the desktop.
    Thanks for any advice,
    -Jason

    Relaunch Finder and restart Mac OS X. See if this helps.

  • I am unable to drag and drop music onto my nano 6th gen!

    I am unable to drag and drop music onto my nano 6th gen that I downloaded into iTunes from 2 CDs that I purchased. Older songs will still copy! Oddly, I CAN drag and drop them onto my old video iPod!

    Yes! It is set up for manual management because I have way more music than will fit on my nano so I am only putting my favorites on it! It's just odd that the music on the 2 new CDs I downloaded into iTunes will not copy over! When I drag my songs to the playlist I made on my nano it acts like it is copying because I get the number of songs icon and the + sign indicating that it is copying but then the playlist is empty. The nano will say for a couple seconds that it is synchronizing but in the end nothing has transferred! If I take an older song and drag it into the playlist it does copy! Seem like it has to do with the new CDs being compatible with nano? I would really appreciate any advice! Thanks!
