You will need to Sync your iPad and all Music/Albums Selected will transfer over from iTunes..

  • I am using garage band for the first time.  I dragged and dropped a song from itunes into the program and I want to extend the length of the song by repeating the first 28 measures.  I can't figure it out.  Please help

    I am using garage band for the first time.  I dragged and dropped a song from itunes into the program and I want to extend the length of the song by repeating the first 28 measures.  I can't figure it out.  Please help.  I have spent several hours trying to figure it out on my own but have not been successful.  It seems like an easy task.  Can anyone help?

    then select only the first region and option-drag it to the end of the song

  • HT1535 Does iTunes 11 allow for the "dragging" and "dropping" of music from a library onto a manually managed device?

    It appears that iTunes 11 does not allow for the "dragging" and "dropping" of music from a library onto a manually managed device.. is that true? I am trying to drag a playlist onto my iPhone. I've done it many times before on previous versions of iTunes but now that the menu is up in the heading, I can't drag the playlist onto the icon for my iPhone.

    No.
    Sync you are not syncing, the ONLY way to get items onto a manually managed device is to drag and drop.
    However, I feel a much simpler way is to create a playlist and add/remove songs from this playlist and autosync this playlist (or multiple playlists). I use about 6 or 7 playlists
    You can still also drag & drop songs while autosycning.

  • I just downloaded the new version of iTunes 10 and now it won't let me drag and drop any files from my computer.

    I just downloaded the new version of iTunes 10 and now it won't let me drag and drop any files from my computer into my iTunes. It lets me play the song from the folder in my computer and then it opens with iTunes and plays the song all the way through, but then if I try to play it again, it says the file cannot be located. So then I go to locate and go to the folder and all that and select it and nothing happens.

    Not sure whether for instance you initially had a Yahoo optimised version of Firefox, and have now overwritten it with an official Mozilla version. Although the Mozilla version should NOT add unwanted features, but the Yahoo version may well do.
    If you merely need to find the Yahoo emails page quickly just add it as a bookmark or as a bookmark on the Bookmarks toolbar and make sure that is visible.
    Clicking the star icon on the location bar whilst looking at your emails will bookmark the page.

  • Hi I have an Ipad 3 (new ipad) and it wont let me open up the screen, it just comes up with'this machine hasnt been backed up for so many weeks, when you press ok, it just stays there  and cant do anything else ???

    I Have an Ipad 3 and it wont let me open  the screen,it just comes up with 'This machine has not been backed up for so many weeks' and when you prsss ok nothing happens, its just locked out ,. Any Ideas ??

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Can not drag and drop any songs into playlists or ipod.

    My iTunes is getting really frustrating. I can not put any of my music onto my ipod because iTunes simply won't let me drag and drop. It won't let me do it onto playlists either, and I don't want to sync my iPod to my iTunes library. I already checked the source files, and made sure that iTunes isn't 'Read Only' but it didn't work and I'm at a complete loss at what to do. Help would be greatly appreciated!
    Note: I'm a Windows user (stinky windows) and I have the latest version of iTunes. This hasn't happened before, and it was going on even before I updated my iTunes.

    Click in the header of the very first column before the track name.
    If any other column is selected, iTunes sorts on that column.

  • TS1363 my itunes will not let me drag and drop any music into my library

    Drew,
    Are you sure that those are regular playlists (music note symbol) and not smart playlists (gear symbol)?  Smart playlists populate themselves according to their rules, and you cannot drag songs into them.

  • Can't drag and drop any more?

    So I had my hard drive crash on me a few weeks back and I'm just getting around to recovering my music collection now. Last night I successfully dragged and dropped in roughly 3000 songs which all added to iTunes just fine.
    An hour or so later I tried to do so again with a measily 12 songs and it won't work... help!?

    Some how solved itself.

  • Can't Drag and Drop to iPhone using iTunes 10.7.0.21

    I cant manually drag and drop my video files to my iPhone using iTunes. When I click on my device and go to summary and check "Manually manage music and videos"  and click apply I get a message saying " The iPhone is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with another library?"
    " An iPhone can be synced with only ones iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents, of this phone with the contents of this iTunes library"
    My options are to erase and sync or cancel. I do not want to erase the contents of my iPhone can anyone help?

    To recap... here is a fuller version of my advice on "how to move a library from one computer to another."
    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.
    As I said in the other thread if you want to be certain of attracting my attention simply post into either of these threads to which I've already posted. These come to the top my active list whenever a new post is added to the thread. Otherwise I keep a general lookout across a number of forums for the threads where I think I can help, but I don't get to read everything...

  • How can I drag and drop lectures within an itunes U album so that they appear in order after syncing with my iphone?

    Whenever I download audio iTunes U lectures, they don't show up in the order in which they were recorded and therefore do not sync in order on my iphone.  There is no sorting option to sort by date recorded.  All I want to do is drag and drop the individual lectures to their proper location so that they will be in order by recording date.  Anyone have the secret?
    Kristy P-S

    This problem started last year when ios 8 was released. I think apple is trying to force users to buy music on iTunes store and that's why it's impossible to sync other music and also that's the reason why they haven't solved this serious problem. That's really disappoints me and i'm angry with apple because i have like 10 gb of music in mp3 and i can't sync music from iTunes to my iPhone.

  • ITunes not drag and dropping/ copying music to iTunes on my mac or ipod

    I've been drag and dropping for years - that's what Macs are for.
    However, now I'm trying to repopulate my ipod with music from an external HD, it gives the errors warning or says the music's not there.
    I look at the HD in the finder - and of course it is.
    I use my ipod for teaching, so this is pretty important.
    Any ideas?

    Hm. It's worse than that - even right clicking and trying to import by opening the mp3 with iTunes doesn't work. The files 'import' but then get the alert exclamation point next to them.
    Also, iTunes isn't turning from background grey to it's colours as I try and drag n drop, FWIW.

  • How can I drag and drop an item from one Tree control to another in LabVIEW 7.1?

    You can use the mouse up and down event on the two tree controls but the problem is making the correct selection in the second tree control. I want to be able to switch over to the selection bar of the second tree control so that I can place my item in the correct position. I know all possible workarounds with double-clicks and so on... but I really want a windows drag and drop.
    This is what I have for the moment. Please check the library below. I need to activate the selection bar of the second tree control somehow to get the position in the control. The VI below is written in LV 7.1

    Hi Jones,
    As far as I know this feature is currently not supported by the Tree control. A workaround, would be to use the vertical position of the mouse in the button up event to determine what line you�re dropping the item.
    If you would like the Tree control to include the drag and drop feature, please submit this as a Product Suggestion under the feedback at www.ni.com/contact.
    Good luck!

  • How can I drag and drop a song from my "Purchased" list on to my i-Pod?

    I've recently updated the apple software on my PC and the new version of i-Tunes won't let me drag and drop songs from my "Purchased" list directly to my i-Pod.  I don't want to sync my i-Pod.  It will erase all the songs on my i-Pod and sync with the playlist from my PC.  I want to select just one song from my "Purchased" list and put that on my i-Pod.

    I got my own answer !!   I saw it on another post.  Select "View" and then toggle down to "View Sidebar".
    Now I can drag and drop like before.
