I'd like to load my playlists into my ipod, and not the library, but how?

Hi.
I recently bought an ipod and I have been filling iTunes with my CDs. Now there are more GBs in iTunes than my ipod can handle. Which is fine by me. But now I would like import the playlists I've made in iTunes to my ipod, but leave the iTunes library behind, too big anyway. Would anyone, please, direct me on how to do just this?
Another side to this problem is how can I order iTunes to begin by importing the playlists, and once that is done, to fill the rest of the ipod with stuff from the library. In short: How can I prioritize the imports from iTunes to the ipod? Thanks in advance.

If you cannot run the Ethernet cable from the Time Capsule to the Blu-Ray player, the next best option would be to use a pair of Ethernet power line adapters.
One adapter plugs into an AC wall socket near the Time Capsule and a short Ethernet cable connects from one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule to the adapter.
The other adapter plugs into an AC wall socket near the Blu-Ray player and a short Ethernet cable connects from the adapter to the Ethernet port on the Blu-Ray player.
The "psedo" Ethernet signal is transmitted over the AC power lines in your home. Works great as long as everything is on the same master electrical circuit.
Any computer / electronics superstore will have a selection of power line adapters to choose from. I've had good results using products from Cisco-Linksys or Netgear, but I'm sure there are other good choices as well.

  • How do i put one playlist on my ipod and not the entire library

    I have recently purchased the newest ipod nano and downloaded the newest itunes and I cannot seem to find out how to select one playlist to go on my ipod. I don't want the entire library but only 1 of the playlists. How do i do this?
    Thank you!

    If you are using iTunes from version 7 onwards, then when you connect the iPod the summary screen should automatically open.
    If you click on the 'music' tab, you will see the options to:
    "sync music" with either "all songs and playlists" or "selected playlists".

  • I can no longer load my playlist into my ipod easily like before...help! Please

    Since doing the upgrade I find it much more time consuming to go through my songs and make playlists.
    I figured out how to make the playlist finally, yet I can't get the playlist into my iPod!
    If I try to select sync music, it tells me it will erase my iPod because it is not synced with "This" library,
    I didn't create a new library, I simply took the advice to upgrade,......Big mistake
    frustrated, never been unhappy with mac, I am now

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Have you tried restarting the router, the Apple TV and iTunes.

  • I have just upgraded to OSX Maverick and now my Apple TV has taken over my iTunes videos. I have tried turning off homeshare and iHave gone into system prefs and disabled the remote, but the problem persists. Any ideas.

    After upgrading to OSX Maverick my Apple TV  has taken control of my iTunes videos insisting I have to watch it on my TV. I have tried disabling home sharing on iTunes and on the Apple TV menu, I have also checked the disable Infrared facility in Systems Prefs Security. Even if I put the Apple TV in standby as soon as I hit a key on my iMac, Apple TV comes back on and on my Itunes screen I get the Apple TV logo imprinted on the screen, meaning I can no longer watch it on my MAC, I have run out of ideas. Can anyone help.

    I think you're headed the right direction. There is an AirPlay icon (on mine it is up near the play/pause controls) that I believe is used to set the default desitination for the video to play.
    I'd never seen your issue before, but opened iTunes on a recently-upgraded-to-Mavericks MacBook and it did exactly as you described. While the video was loading, I switched the AirPlay option to the computer instead of ATV and it began playing locally (after a delay as you'd mentioned). I then read this page, which is actually quite old: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1091073, which lead me to the icon near the play/pause button. It now has Computer selected on it, and defaults to play locally instead of the ATV even after quitting and reopening iTunes. I hope that is helpful.

  • When ever I sync my phone with my computer, my playlists on my phone resets to what the computer has and not the phone. How do I fix this?

    Instead of the playlist on the computer updating itself, it changes the playlist on my phone and it's really irritating.

    Yes, windows to Mac too.
    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

  • Why does iTunes create and run playlists when I add folders to the library? How do I stop it?

    Just as the title says.
    Some albums, when added to the iTunes library, will auto-play and create a playlist. Is there any way to stop this?

    What version of Windows do you have?
    If the downloaded scripts open as text files then you may need to install the Windows Scripting Host: Windows Script 5.7 for Windows XP
    It may be that the file association for .vbs files is incorrectly set.

  • I loaded my ipad photos from camera and all the pictures sorted by date.  Next, I did a sync with my computer and the photos were all reorganized into IMPRT folders an out of date sequence.  Any idea how to put the photos back into date files?

    I loaded my ipad photos from camera and all the pictures sorted by date.  I later sync my ipad with my computer and the photos were all reorganized into IMPRT folders an out of date sequence.  Any idea how to put the photos back into date files other than reloading all of them from camera?

    What version of iPhoto?
    Select one and rotate it. Then rotate it back. Does that make it appear? 
    A much better work flow is the keep the photos after importing.  Check the success the import, wait for at least one successful backup cycle then use you camera's format command to reformat the card

  • When I import a commercial CD itunes will create 2 identical albums and put all of the songs except one into one album and put the other song into the other album by it self. How can I combine them all into one album and why is itunes doing this?

    When I import a commerical CD Itunes will create 2 identical albums and put all of the songs except one into one album and put the other song into the second album that it created.  Why is itunes doing this and what can I do to combine them into one album?

    I found this to be somewhat helpful: Grouping Tracks into Albums
    What I did was to put in the same name for Album Artist in every track.  That seemed to do the trick (previously all those fields were empty).  It seems like a lot of work for a simple thing.
    iTunes knows (or should know) that these tracks were imported from one CD. So why is it relying on incomplete data from the gracenote database?

  • Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

    Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

    Yoh, what is FSCCommanr ? sorry man I am an absolute beginner in Flash. I tried the code:
    /* Click to Go to Web Page
    Clicking on the specified symbol instance loads the URL in a new browser window.
    Instructions:
    1. Replace http://www.adobe.com with the desired URL address.
       Keep the quotation marks ("").
    instance_name_here.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);
    function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void {
      navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"), "_blank");
    this is the same code I used before and it opens a pdf file in a web browser, and it doesn't open an AutoCAD file.

  • I would like to uninstall firefox 4 and then reinstall it, but how do I save my book marks?

    I would like to uninstall firefox 4 and then reinstall it, but I don't want to lose all of my bookmarks. The actual problem is a persona that won't stay changed. We change it, but every time we close Firefox it goes back to the Persona we changed it from when we start up Firefox again. I was just planning on uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, but, like I said, I don't want to lose my bookmarks. How do I save my bookmarks in Firefox 4?

    You could always remove/disable the Persona that you don't want. Go to Add-ons > Appearance, and then just disable/remove the offending Persona.
    Though, if you really want to save your bookmarks:
    Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Which will open the Library > Look for Import and Backup > Backup...> and it will prompt to you save the file somewhere. To add them back into Firefox, go back to the library > Import and Backup again > Restore > Choose File... > and then open the file you saved earlier.

  • I would like to be able to open up facebook and access the game Double Down Casino.  Can I do this without downloading an app?

    I am a new owner of an iPad!  So excited!
    Please help with a few questions:
    1.  Can I access the games Double Down Casino, Song Pop, etc. through facebook without downloading an app?  Every time I open fb and try to open these games, an app option pops up.  My friend has an iPad and downloaded the app, but cannot open the entire game using the app.  I want to have access to the entire game floor and be able to open gifts, etc. within the games, like I can on my pc.
    2. I would like to link several different email accts to the email app.  Can I do this, then choose the one I'd like to open?
    3. I have a Work Force printer/fax hooked up wirelessley.  How can I access this through my iPad to print material?
    4.  Any suggestions on good tutorial sites for the iPad?  I see there are some posted on YouTube.
    That is all for now!  Thanks for any help you can give me!
    JK Ames

    1. Since that game is based on flash, probably not. The iPad doesn't natively support Flash although some third party browsers do. You'd have to experiment and see which ones work for you.
    2. You can enter various accounts into the mail app. I've linked three, no idea if there's a limit. BUt when you open the mail app, it downloads from all of them. However you choose which is the primary and that's what you send from.
    3. If that printer isn't an air print enabled printer, you'll need to use a third party app, either from the printer maker or something like print n share, print central or printopia
    4. No idea there. Sorry
