ITunes 10 playlist issues

Why can't you drag and drop between playlists anymore?
I just upgraded to the latest iTunes and now I can't select and drag songs from one playlist to another, nor can I drag to reorder songs within a playlist. Can someone help? Am I missing something here?

Actually, I found the existing threads about how it's an issue with Wacom tablets. I tried to downgrade to iTunes 9 unsucessfully. Now I'm just using a different mouse, which isn't the most convenient thing, but not the end of the world.

Apple TV ( 2&3) - iTunes Match playlist issue

After the latest firmware update none of my ATVs (3 of, 2 ATV2 and 1 ATV3) allow my ITunes Match playlists to be selected using either the ATV remote or iPhone Remote App. When playlists are selected the ATV appears to reset (white LED flashes and connection to iPhone dropped). It is however possible to access playlists successfully using the iPad Remote App??? This ***** as I have my music library stored in the cloud and regularly played music via the ATVs, my son had some of his own playlists which he now gets upset he can't access. Come on Apple sort this out , your loyal customers are getting frustrated by your one step forward & another step back software upgrade program.

Thanks for the advice on how to contact apple.....they don't make it easy!!!!!
However you are incorrect, other people have had this problem, search in iTunes- iTunes Match- discussions for "ITunes crashes when loading playlists on Apple TV".
Interestingly my ATV had an update tonight ( looks like a roll back to me) as the crashing problem has cleared but the previous issue I was having ( and had not reported yet) has reoccurred. The problem is that I have many playlists in ITunes and subsequently in Match however my ATV only shows the first 24 - again frustrating and similarly you can access all the playlists if you connect with iPad remote App but not with the iPhone remote app??

ITunes library/playlists issue

I have recently lost my playlists and part of my iTunes library on windows, however in iCloud my complete collection and playlists appear. Is there any way to sync my itunes from the up to date content currently sitting in iCloud?

Hello Tosh_1968,
It sounds like you have iTunes Match items that you would like to download to your computer.
First go to your Songs view and click Edit in the menu bar, and choose Select All. You may have to enable the menu bar on your PC:
To turn on iTunes menus in Windows 8 or 7, do one of the following:
Press the Alt key.
This will turn the menus on and off temporarily. This will change back to the default, the iTunes menus being turned off, when you next close iTunes.
From: iTunes: Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7

Then Right click any one of the highlighted songs and choose Download.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Two iPad/Match Playlist Issues

I am having a number of problems with Match, iTunes and my iPad.
For starters, I have iTunes and Match running on 3 computers (a Macbook Pro, a Macbook and a Mac Mini). I also use Match with my music on an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2.
My iPhone music is fine.
On my iPad, however, there are a couple of issues.
1) Smart playlists, such as 100 Most Listened to Songs, and 50 Most Recent Purchases have thousands of songs in them, not the 100 or 50 that they should. Those playlists are correct on all other computers and my iPhone
2) Regular playlists have only a fraction of the songs that they should, and they appear to be changing the playlists on the other machines. For example, a playlist that was created with 15 songs in it, and had 15 songs on all machines, only had 4 songs on the iPad (and this IS with All songs shown, taking into account they may or may not have been downloaded to the device). And then, after I saw there were only 4 songs in the iPad playlist, I looked again at the other devices and those playlists were changed to only have 4 songs too. The changes happened AFTER I looked at the playlists on the iPad.
All of my devices are running the latest versions on iTunes, OS 10 and iOS.
I know these are similar to some of the other Match/Playlist issues, but there are a few differences too.
Any ideas?

For #1 - on your computer, right-click (or control-click) one of the songs that this is affecting, then choose "Get Info". Look on the "Info" tab. Is the "Part of a compilation" item checked? If it is, that will change how the song is categorized so it won't appear under the artist name. I've found that sometimes this is checked even on things like "Best of..." albums where the artist is always the same.
For #2, do the same thing, but this time look for any weird characters in the info - like maybe somehow a letter got entered into the "year" field, or you might see empty squares in the name field. Fix anything that looks odd, then sync again or update iTunes match, and see if you can open that artist on the ipad again.

My macbook pro logic board died. I had all my music on an external drive. How do I get my iTunes library, playlists etc. from my dead computer onto my new one?

My logic board died on my old macbook pro. I have a new one, but I want to get my iTunes library off my old hard drive and put it on my new one. I had set up my old MBP to store all my iTunes music on an external drive, so I have the music. The iTunes program was on the old MBP hard drive.How do I essentially recreate my previous iTunes library, playlists, etc on my new laptop?

You will need the iTunes Library.itl file which generally lives in ~/Music/iTunes/. You can recover this from the backups you were making before the HDD died. Otherwise, you cannot recreate the library.

Try:
- Another cable
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I can no longer burn CDs from my iTunes (Macintosh) playlists. The format shows up as m4a - which never used to happen. Can you help? Thanks.

I can no longer burn CDs from my iTunes (Macintosh) playlists. The songs are now formatted as m4a, which might be making them unreadable by my CDs, although this never used to happen before. Can you help? Thanks very much.

After you select Burn, you need to select AudioCD in the pop-up window.

Anyone know how to restore the itunes created playlists?

In a fit of stupidity, I deleted the itunes created playlists(purchased music, recently played, etc.). I was just wondering if anyone knew how to get those back on my source list, and also on my ipod mini. I tried to go the smart playlist route, but there is no criteria for recently played or purchased music. Any help would be greatly appreciated:)
Thanks

"I tried to go the smart playlist route, but there is no criteria for recently played or purchased music"
Sure there is....
For 'Recently Played', you can:
1) 'Last Played' 'is in the last' xx days/weeks/months OR
2) Uncheck the 'Match' condition and check the 'Limit' condition to however many songs/GBs/hours selected by 'most recently played'
For Purchased Music:
Match 'Kind' contains 'Protected'
Recreate the Smart Playlists yourself. Name them anything you desire.

Since installing latest iTunes my playlists stop at the end of each song -why?

Most likely your songs got unchecked. iTunes will not automatically advance to an unchecked song.
First make sure you can see the checkboxes. If not, Preferences > General, Show list checkboxes.
If they have gone empty, you can recheck them all at once by holding the CMD or OPTION key (sorry I forget which on a Mac, so if one does not work try the other) and click any empty box.

Can't drag songs from itunes to playlists

new 4th generation ipod nano won't let me drag my music from itunes into playlists. My old 4th generation would, what is going on?

As far as I know you cannot drag & play from computer to iPods. Read the instructions in - Adding and Deleting Songs and playlists from your iPod and iPod Manuals

Yes, but back up the library first. Note that if you're using Mac OS X 10.5.8, you won't be able to update iTunes past 10.6.3.

Why is that in itunes my playlist is in order from the recently added to oldest but when it syncs into my ipod , it doesnt arrange it that way. its in artist order

That does happen. It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system. If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.
