I can't drag and drop the songs around in a playlist I made

I just made a new playlist and for some reason I can't drag and drop the songs around to change the order. I have two other playlists and I can drag and drop the songs in those playlists just fine. How can I fix this?

In iTunes when I press "add to" playlist I get an error message, but I can still drag and drop the song into a playlist

Why is this happening and how can I resolve it?

I called Apple Support and they walked me through it. They told me to basically copy and paste my music to the external hard drive. (I think.) Or maybe it was they had me transfer a folder to the EHD. I don't exactally remember it was a few years back. But I tried to plug in the EHD before starting and...nothing. Still says same thing, "locate file."

I would like to copy all the songs from one Ipod into another. All the songs are into my Itunes account, I tried to drag and drop the songs from the old Ipod to the new one but it doesn't work. Is there a way to do it ?

Hello everybody,
I would like to copy all the songs from one Ipod into another. All the songs are into my Itunes account, I tried to drag and drop the songs from the old Ipod to the new one but it doesn't work. Is there a way to do it ?
I share one Itunes account with other people from my family and one person would like to keep the same songs on the new Ipod as the ones which were on the old one.
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hello Chris,
Thanks for your answer. I was hoping for an easier answer. Too bad there is no drag and drop solution, it would have been much easier.
Thanks for answering so fast.
Bye.

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.

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.

Can't drag and drop in iTunes

What's going on with iTunes (10.4 (80))?
I can't drag and drop my songs, re-order my playlists or anything?? I can import a song into a playlist, but it just appears as the last item in the list, I can't place it where I want.
I've checked other complaints here, but there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer: is this a bug? Is it going to be fixed soon? If not, can I downgrade to a previous version?

I am having a similar problem. For some time I have had sudden loss of drag and drop so that I cannot even move a song around in a playlist, much less to another list. The only thing that stops the is a full system reboot. I have been waiting for a fix however version 10 is much worse. I am having this fail almost every day. I am running an internet radio show from my computer and use iTunes to set up playlists. When I have this problem happen, I have to kick my listeners off and reboot. This is NOT an acceptable situation. I am running iTunes 10.01 on a 2.8 GHz Core i7 iMac with 8 GB of onboard memory. This problem has been happening since at least version 9, however.
Somebody at Apple please fix this! Or tell me a workaround that does not involve me closing all other programs There is no excuse for this problem continuing.

Can't Drag and Drop songs onto Shuffle. Autofill Doesn't work either

I know that many people have been having this same problem.
The Shuffle is recognized by the computer AND even iTunes. It shows up in the playlist, but when you try to Autofill or even Drag and Drop the songs individual, the songs, for lack of a better term, don't stick.
It was working perfectly when my daughter first got it for Christmas, and now, this happens. We have already had to return one shuffle.
Does this one have the same fate???
HELP!
Shuffle Windows XP 1 GB

Same problem here too. Was workiong fine about a month ago. When looking at songs in my Shuffle Library the new ones I have manually dragged accross appear with a 'dot' beside the track number - it is these songs which are not being transferred to the shuffle. I can't even get the message at the top of iTunes to say "Ipod Shuffle is Connected & Updating - Do Not disconnect." I have updated iTunes to latest version and completed all Shuffle updates. What's the go? Is the only solution to have the shuffle replaced? Seems very strange it used to work and now it doesn't - nothing had changed in the intervening period. Appears I'm not the only one with this issue. Does anyone have an answer?

Can't drag and drop song from iTunes to playlist on iPod Nano.

I downloaded iTunes to my new laptop. Authorized the laptop. Purchased a new song, but Itunes won't allow me to drag and drop the song to one of my established playlists on my iPod Nano. I keep getting the red circle with a line running through it. Did I miss a step along the way?
This is getting really frustrating! Thanks to anyone who can help me!

I can't drag and drop from a data CD I recorded

I recently burned some audiobooks files (in mp3 format) as data cd's in Toast 8.0.1. When I go to reload them back onto my 20" 2 Ghz Dual Core Intel I can't drag and drop the files directly into any folder while using the columns view in a finder window. I can do it if I drag onto the music folder and let it spring open down to the level of the folder. I also can drag the mp3's into iTunes and then into the folder. This is not CD related since I used several diff brands.
I constantly update, backup, repair permissions, and do other maintenance so everything is up to date. I have noticed this behavior just since I started to use the program called Audiobook Builder. I am (and have always used) a non-admin user account. When this started a few months ago it seemed to go away with a restart, permission repair, or a logout but now it seems permanant. I checked user permissions on my home folder - I have not added any software since adding Audiobook Builder. Any idea's? I read something about trashing a com.apple pref but didn't try that.
I suspect Audiobook Builder since it changes the permissions and filetype to the iTunes Audiobook filetype but have not seen anyone reference this.

While the programming of course could be done, the idea of a function that performs on original unprocessed images seems to violate the whole idea of what Lightroom was designed to be. At least that's my opinion. Of course, the idea that Adobe should do this programming for a relatively small number of people (you're one of a very few people to ask for this, that I have read) seems to be something that isn't going to happen.
I agree, I can't see much reason for drag-and-drop to drag the unprocessed image - in other words, an image that isn't the one that you see when you drag and drop. I can see that just filling this forum with "why the heck does it do that????????" posts. I could be wrong, but I suspect that Adobe won't do that.
But if you do want to drag-and-drop the original unprocessed image, you can do it very easily now. Right click the image, choose "show in Explorer", and then drag-and-drop from Explorer.

I can't drag and drop or add to library for dvd's that I converted with Bootstrap VideoWizard All-in-one app. hep!

i purchased Bootstrap VideoWizard all-in-one edition and converted my homemade Dvds, but I can't drag and drop the converted files into iTunes or use iTunes file - add to library to add them to iTunes so I can sync them onto my iPad 1. What am I doing wrong? The bootstrap website wasn't any help.

Yes, that appears how Mavericks works right now. However, you can open the Address Panel, select all your contacts, then click the To (or CC, or Bcc) buttons to move the selection to the address field.
If it is not already in the Toolbar, right-click on the Toolbar and select Customize Toolbar…
Then, drag the address panel up to wherever you want it.
You may also want to add it to the New Message window in the same way.

I can't drag and drop

I"m running leopard i think? 10.5.7. Recently when I plugged my ipod into my computer through either the keyboard or the usb on the back and i try to drag and drop the songs from my library to my ipod i cant. it selects the song that i click when i attempt to drag and drop. this applies to both single and multiple selected songs. any idea of what to do? I don't want to do the five r's either. even though i tried all of them except the restore part, i'm trying to save that until i die because it's annoying to put more than a month of music back on my ipod.

I can't drag and drop iTunes music files into Roxio Jam 6 anymore and, now I have to import music one song at a time by using the " " or "-" buttons on the bottom. What is going on? G5 Dual 2 Ghz and OS 10.4.11

Hi. I have not used Roxio Jam for quite a long time and I just wanted to make a few CDs. Jam used to work easily and well. I have a problem. I can't drag and drop iTunes music files anymore and, now I have to import music one song at a time by using the "+" or "-" buttons on the bottom. What is going on? I trashed the preferences file and restarted Jam to no avail. I also have selected that Jam should open files with iTunes in the Jam preferences. I have a G5 DP 2Ghz PPC machine with OS 10.4.11, iTunes 9.2.1 and Quicktime's version is 7.6.4. I have 2 GB of RAM and the machine has dual 1.25 Ghz. processors plus a 500 GB HD. Can anybody give me any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Larry

I found an solution.
Uninstalling AirParrot as well as the two offending AirParrotDriver.kext and APExtFramebuffer.kext files in System>Library>Extensions was the fix. All problems disappeared.

(Let the page FULLY load. The link to your answer is at the top of your screen)
then select only the first region and option-drag it to the end of the song
