Is it possible in windows itunes to capture (copy) a playlist display as editable text?

is it possible in windows itunes to capture (copy) a playlist display as editable text?

Thanks for the reply, ed2345.
I had found similar suggestions in the archived support files, but thought perhaps something had been added in the recent versions that would more directly address such an obvious need. I had used iTunes on the Apple Mac OSX platform, which provides a direct copy/paste to text file procedure (for the entire playlist display). It was a bit of a surprise to find that the Windows version did not.
I have tried both of the suggested methods, and found the Excel routine to be the best for my needs. I have not found a way to control the massive amounts of information supplied by the Export method.
Thanks again for the reply. It served to confirm my fears that there was no direct copy/paste routine.

  • Need To Re-Install Windows & iTunes.  Can I Save Playlists, Ratings, Etc?

    Okay, here's the issue I'm about to face.
    I am going to wipe my pc clean (reformat hard drive, reinstall Windows XP Pro, etc) and start over. Then I'll be downloading and installing iTunes once again.
    I have over 11,000 songs, all rated (stars) and organized into playlists. I have over 200 playlists (by albums, by genres, etc) and all the info attached to each song.
    Sounds simple, but HOW do I download and install iTunes so I can have it RETAIN all this information? The last time I upgraded iTunes (just a simple UPGRADE) it lost all this info and I had to listen to each song and re-rate them one by one.
    Can anyone tell me how to go about doing this? I don't want to lose this info, it'd drive me crazy. Email [email protected] with any help. Thank you SO so much!!

    Deauthorize iTunes on your PC before you reformat.
    http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive
    That article explains what you need to do. The important file that holds ratings, play counts, etc is named
    iTunesLibrary.itl
    Another thing you need to know is the paths to the music files have to be the exact same thing after you reformat. So if all your music is on an external hard drive named F:, that exHD still has to be named F: after you reformat.
    If it's named E: or G: iTunes won't be able to find anything.

  • How do I keep iTunes from creating a new playlist after I edit a current playlist on my iPhone?

    I am trying to figure out how to keep my iTunes library from creating a second playlist on my computer when the first playlist is edited on my iPhone. The situation is as follows:
    1. Create "playlist" on computer.
    2. Sync iPhone and upload "playlist."
    3. Listen to "playlist" for a couple hours and wonder how "lame song" made the cut.
    4. Edit "playlist" on iPhone to remove "lame song."
    5. Check iTunes and realize the editing "playlist" on iPhone has created "playlist 1" with "lame song" removed.
    I am sure that there is a checkbox somewhere that I am missing. Any help?

    No, there is no custom setting for this. I wouldn't advise it, but if you really want you could downgrade to the older folder layout. However all your other folders will be arranged in the old layout too which may no be what you want.
    See this old post of mine for more details. (Read the last bit first.)

    itunes menu > edit > preferences > advanced tab > importing tab
    Make sure "Automatically retrieve CD track names from internet" is enabled.
    Also, any firewalls or security software needs to allow access to CDDB.

  • Is it possible to install iTunes on Windows 8?

    Is it possible to install iTunes on Windows 8?

    I tried everything to install itunes 64 bit to window 8,
    Running the itunes64setup.exe as an administrator or changing the compatibility to windows 7 or vista didn't work for me.
    The trick is itunes64setup.exe can be "exracted" with winrar or winzip or similar programs.
    But my windows 8 laptop "can not execute" it so my husband exract the itunes64setup.exe file for me on his computer.
    The folder contains 6 files.
    AppleApplicationSupport.msi
    AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi
    AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi
    Bonjour64.msi
    iTunes64.msi
    SetupAdmin.exe
    You can try to install them one by one and see if it is working for you.

  • Possible to have ITunes for updating IPod only - with r/o access to media?

    Hi,
    I have this music collection (FLAC) on a Windows server. I want to have that music on my IPod also. Is it somehow possible to have ITunes have read-only access to this collection - perhaps using Firefly media server - and just import them into a client PC and have it update an IPod?
    Hope you get my meaning here...
    Werner

    Firefly will give ITunes oppertunity to update tags, create album photos etc. And this is something I do not want. I want ITunes only to read (read-only access) and just transfer the music to an IPod.
    Okay.
    Go to iTunes prefs -> Advanced.
    Uncheck Copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library.
    Just make sure the *iTunes music folder location* is set to some place other than the media server. The default location (for Vista) is \Music\iTunes\.
    Note: If you RIP a CD using iTunes, it will go into the iTunes music folder in Artist/Album folder.
    Now you can File -> Add folder to library and select the top level music folder on the server.
    iTunes will add to the library what it can in that folder and subfolders but it will not copy them to the iTunes music folder. It will not do anything to any of the tags or filenames.
    As noted, not iPod will not play FLAC files.
    Supposedly, iTunes for WIndows will play Ogg FLAC, using -> Xiph QuickTime Components

  • Is It Possible To Downgrade iTunes 11.1.4.62?

    I just upgraded my iTunes to 11.1.4.62 tonight and I am not happy with the cosmetic changes to iTunes that took place (Mainly in the TV shows and Podcasts Section). I do not hace an iOS 7 device so I am hoping that there is a way to possibly downgrade my iTunes the the last version.

    If you have license for Windows 7 or you have downgrade option. You should do reinstall of Windows 7 and there is no direct downgrade option. It is possible to backup data and then restore files from user profile manually but there is
    no direct downgrade option and you have to reinstall all programs.

  • Is it possible to do the audio capture and playback simultaneously?

    In short :
    Is it possible to do the audio capture and playback simultaneously? . If it is not supported directly by Sun, pl suggest another way to achieve the same.
    In detail:
    I am doing a voice chat application by using the streaming through UDP . I am able to play the byte stream. But , is it possible to capture sound simultaneously (while playing the audio) to send to the other end?
    Edited by: dhillarun on Jan 4, 2008 7:11 AM

    If you're Airplaying from you computer, you might be able to do this. Here's what I would try:
    Go to the Airplay icon in iTunes. You should see both your Apple TV and your speakers listed as options. Select "Multiple speakers." You'll see both devices together. Turn the volume all the way down on the Apple TV. You should be getting the video on the TV, but only hear audio through the speakers.
    Using the "Multiple Speakers" option will sync the output of your devices so that the sound matches the picture.
    I haven't tried this myself, but I'm thinking this would work. However, this approach will only work when using Airplay from your computer – not from am iPad or iPhone – as they don’t have the "Multiple Speakers" option (as far as I know). It also won't work with content streamed directly to your ATV, obviously, because there's no way to stream from ATV to other devices.
    Let me know if this works.

  • Is it possible to keep iTunes Library on an external disk ?

    Is it possible to keep iTunes Library on an external disk ?

    Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive.  Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes.  At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
