Moving playlists from iPhone or iPad into iTunes

Is there a good solution to move my playlists from either my iPhone or iPad into iTunes? I backed up to computer but I see that it only backed up purchased music.

That is very odd, try taking to the Apple Store and see what they can do it easily uploads non-perchased music for me

Can we backup from iPhone and iPad into time capsule?

Can we backup from iPhone and iPad photos and data into time capsule?

iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad back up only to iTunes on your computer or to iCloud. More details on backups here:

If you backup the iOS devices to iTunes, then iTunes in turn backs up to the Time Capsule using Time Machine.

Playlists from windows media player into itunes.

I used import playlist and it doesnt work. Like my computer doesnt even register that i clicked that. Help please!

Open itunes.
First go to the edit menu, select preferences, click the advanced tab, and select importing.For best song capacity on the ipod, make sure that the encoder is set to "Import using AAC encoder", and "High quality 128 kbps". Hit OK.
Then go to file menu, go to "add file to library" or if its a whole folder go to "add folder to library". Go through folders to find the songs (usually in "My Music" )
Select the song or songs you want to add, then hit open. To select more than one song from a folder, click the first one, hold shift, then click the last song you want to select.
A box will come up saying "one or more of the files you are adding are wma files",click ok and itunes will convert them into aac format (this could take a while if you have a number of songs).
It should be noted that this will only work with unprotected WMA files, not ones bought off of the windows media store or imported to windows media with protection.
Hope this helps

Anyone know how I can transfer my playlist from iphone to Itunes on my laptop. Computer had crashed. I am unable to export. I had backed up songs to icloud which are now on my laptop however without the original playlists folders?

Anyone know if I can transfer my playlist from iphone to Itunes on my laptop.
I am not keen to sync my iphone to my new laptop in case it wipes out my playlist.
My Computer had crashed so I am unable to export a playlist.
I had backed up songs to icloud which are now on my laptop however without the original playlists folders?
Any suggestions?

Hello CDA ENT
I would turn off the automatic syncing so that way you can see what is on your iPhone. From there, you should be able to see what is on your iPhone and then can export out the playlists and then import them back to your library. I would also recommend backing up your iPhone before going through with this process. To export a playlist, have it highlighted then go to File > Library > Export Playlist…

You do not put contacts into itunes at all.
Iphone syncs contacts with Outlook, Address Book, etc on your ocmputer, not itunes.

Transfer Music Ratings and Playlists from iPhone 5c to Macbook Air iTunes

Hi,
My iPhone 5c used to sync with my old Windows laptop via iTunes and both devices held all music information on them such as iTunes rating, playlist information and the selected songs to be synced (there are more songs on my iTunes on my laptop than my iPhone). All of these songs are also saved on an external hard drive. None were purchased through iTunes.
When my old Windows laptop died, it died abruptly so I did not have chance to consolidate the iTunes media folder. I have now bought a new MacBook Air to replace my old Windows laptop.
When I plug in my iPhone 5c to my new MacBook Air, when iTunes offers to sync it advises all information on my iPhone will be lost.
Is it possible to transfer the ratings and playlists from my iPhone to iTunes on my MacBook Air, at least for the corresponding songs that exist on my iPhone? Note I have the original songs on an external hard drive so the song files themselves do not have to copy across. All the files in the iPhone exist in the external hard drive.

Below are the steps about how to transfer playlist from iphone to itunes:
Step 1: To create a playlist on your iPhone or other iOS device, open the Music app and then tap on Playlists at the bottom left of the screen. Once there, tap on Add Playlist… at the top of the screen. Here you will be prompted to name your new playlist. Enter a name and then tap on Save.
Step 2: Each song will have a blue “plus” sign to its right. Tap on the sign next to each song to add it to your new playlist. When you finish choosing songs, tap on Done at the top right of the screen to finish creating your playlist.
Step 3: Connect your iPhone to your Mac or PC either via a cable or wirelessly and click on it from the menu on the left pane.
Step 4: From the tabs at the top of the iTunes Window, check the Sync Music option and also check the Selected playlists, artists, albums and genres. Then select the playlist you just created from the list below. To start syncing, click on the Apply button.
Step 5: Syncing will then start and after it is complete, you will see that the playlist you just created on your iPhone is now also on iTunes under Playlists on the left pane of the iTunes window. Or vyou can use iPhone Transfer.

3. Tried to import playlists to new iTunes on MBP. Doesn't work.
How can I get my music playlists from point a (iPad/iPhone) to my shiny new MBP?
Thank you please.

I have some new voice memos on my iPhone 5 as well as selected music from my iTunes.
I want to transfer the new voice memos to iTunes on my mac but it appears that it will since my itunes library to my phone.
The iPhone is connected to the mac. i am in iTunes and I go to the Device listed as iPhone and click on music.
When I click on the box that says Sync Music, I get a message that says
Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies etc from this iPhone and sun with intones library...
I click cancel instead of remove and sync. In the sync music window in light grey I can see tha Selected playlists, artist and albums and genres is selected and include voice memos is checked.
On summary I have Manually Manage Music and Videos checked.
I just got the phone and i see on p 110 of the manual how to move recordings to your computer and it isn't doing what I want.
I would like to move the voicemails to the computer without syncing the library and I would like to manually move some songs from iphone to iTunes on the mac.
I also don't know if under Summary if I should check Sync only checked songs and videos
Mac mini 10.5.8

Thanks for any help.

I think you need to find a third-party tool to copy voice memos from iPhone to Mac because iTunes can't do it. And the only option Apple offers is to backup your iPhone, either to iTunes or iCloud. However, by doing this, voice memos are packed into the backup file package. You can't view them until restore your iPhone with the backup file.

How can i transfer my photos from iphone to ipad

hello i just want to know if somebody can help me to tranfer pics from iphone to ipad pls

Hi Samaur,
If you have iCloud, then your Photostream will be available on both devices automatically. If you want to sync pictures not on Photostream, then you have a couple of options:
Apple sells a cable that will enable you to link your iPhone to your iPad and transfer the pictures that way
You can get them from your iPhone to your iPad by syncing them through iTunes on your computer
I will tell you that I have used both ways to transfer pictures (the first way before iCloud was available), and when you do a direct transfer using the cable, it may cause issues with the Events in iPhoto. I had to do a lot of moving and renaming to get them straightened out with those direct link photos. It seems like years ago, but probably not that long, but either way - I can't tell you exactly what the problems were, but I won't be using that method anymore. iCloud pretty much solved my issue - with Photostream, I get all my pictures on both devices without doing anything. So, I would strongly recommend iCloud as the way to go...
Cheers,
GB

How do I sink photos from iPhone to ipad

HOw do I sink my photos from iPhone to iPad.i turned phphoto stream on on both devises.

The only way is to sync to iTunes on a computer and then sync from iTunes to the other device, using USB.
If you're thinking of using photo stream, that won't work now, since only photos taken AFTER each device was logged into photo stream will sync between them. All older photos must be synced via a computer.
The exception to this is if you use dropbox or some other service to act as the middleman.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Export Voice Memos from iPhone 4 to Mac/itunes

I'm trying to get Voice Memos from my iPhone 4 onto my computer so I can then subsequently put them on my iPhone 6. They didn't sync properly the first time I tried.
The apple support told me that I would have to use third party software. Anyone know of any free programs? (TunesGo only allows 20 songs before you have to pay).
THanks!

I think you need to find a third-party tool to copy voice memos from iPhone to Mac because iTunes can't do it. And the only option Apple offers is to backup your iPhone, either to iTunes or iCloud.
