Need Help Synching 2 playlist w/o deleting songs

i went to http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61148
i have ituns 7.0.1.8 and from the link below it says in like step 3 to go to the "source" pane and i caouldntfind it. were is it at?
also this is a friends ipod hat i am putting some songs on because he doesnt have a pc. so do i need to register it first for it to show under source?

The source list is the pane on the left hand side of iTunes that shows your playlists etc. If the iPod isn't showing have a look at the troubleshooting document: iTunes 7 for Windows doesn't recognize iPod

    This sounds like your alarm is set. Go to
    Extras-->Clocks and make sure that the alarms are
    off. Make sure there are no alarms set for your
    calendar either.

  • Need help getting playlist into flash drive

    Hi friends ... so sorry to bother ... but I need some help ... my iPod Shuffle isn't compatible with my new cars audio system .... so I just bought my first usb flash drive (sandisk 8gig)  ...I inserted the flash drive and it mounted right away on the desktop ...  I just dragged all of the albums I wanted from my iTunes library to the flash drive icon .... I double clicked the flash icon and all the songs and every artist that I dragged into it showed up .... I inserted the flash into my car's usb port- and it played wonderfullyu... until I clicked on the menu and saw that instead of the 900 or so songs I dragged into the flash drive- only about 18 showed up in the audio systems menu ... only about 5 artists instead of the 30 or 40 that I loaded .... the flash drive is 8gig capacity and my entire library is only about 5 gigs .... I emptied all of the mpg's from my flash drive- threw out the trash ... and re-loaded everything again .... once again, when the transfer was finished , everything I dragged into the flash icon was there- every tune played as it shoud when clicked within the desk-mounted flash drive .... but when I inserted again into my cars usb port- once again only a fraction of what was on the flash drive showed up on my screen ...
    Please tell me what I'm doing wrong ...The flash drive never appeared in my iTunes window anywhere and under "devices" there was no option highlighted- maybe this is a clue to what I haven't done right?  this was the first time I ever used a usb flash drive..I didn't format or anything else -when the flash icon showed up on my desktop - I just intuitively dragged my playlist into the icon - everything appeared to be in there ... but didn't end up in my car's audio system .... please advise .... please advise as simply as possible .... much thanks in advance ....
    David

    David,
    Ther flash drive will not be a recognized Device to iTunes.  It will simply be another drive.  You can add files to it by drag-n-drop, as you correctly did.
    Most likely, you have many files in AAC audio format, and your car player is one of the many that can play MP3, but not AAC.
    If you need to convert any formats, consult this document:

  • Need help synching hotmail between new macbook pro and iphone.

    Hi,
    I have an iphone and now have a new macbook pro.  My hotmail does not synch between the two.  Called apple support and they couldn't help me.  Stated I needed to load imap vs pop and had to get hotmail support.  Found this link and followed instructions to make change on macbook in my apple email.  http://mac.tutsplus.com/tutorials/productivity/how-to-set-up-outlook-com-using-i map-in-apple-mail-or-microsoft-outlook/.  Deleted Pop acct. 
    It appears to still  not synch with phone.  Turned phone off/on.  What else do I need to do?

  • Need help writing a script to delete a folder to run at startup

    I have no experience with this and need full assistance to set this up.
    I am hoping to write a script which can be run at startup on a single client machine which is giving me font trouble. Our client machines are network controlled by our server and have multiple users all in the Server user database.
    The fonts are behaving badly until we trash this folder HD>Library>Caches>com.apple.ATS
    On restart the fonts behave as expected.
    Can someone help me write a script or give me a command I can insert in a crontab with Cronnix to delete this folder at startup?
    Thanks

    They both work fine (read that as: it can be added into either place) While that message in crontab seems to intimate that Apple will do something drastic like disable or make it hard to run cron I cannot see how, cron has been in all *nix's since the beginning so to remove it would anger quite a few people...
    Having said that, If you want to make a launchd item you would put the below into /Library/LaunchDaemons/ create a file (call it someting memorable like 'Delete_com.apple.ATS') put this into it:
    Code:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">
    <dict>
    <key>Label</key>
    <string>Delete com.apple.ATS</string>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
    <array>
    <string>rm</string>
    <string>-rf</string>
    <string>/Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS</string>
    </array>
    <key>RunAtLoad</key>
    <true/>
    </dict>
    </plist>
    and finally load it...

  • Moved Library & Need To Synch Playlists to New Location

    I relocated my library to a new drive and imported my playlist but the playlist shows the old drive location. For example, my library was on my F:/ drive, now it is on my C:/ drive. When I imported the playlist the locations for the files are still showing F:/
    How can I synch my playlist to the new location?

    Do you have a backup version of the library file that you deleted? If you're not bothered about Date Added and have all the content that you want then I guess it doesn't matter too much but it might be best to start from where you were, rather than where you are now.
    When you export playlists from iTunes it records the absolute paths to each file, so changing the folder you import the playlist from doesn't work. Setting a new media folder path in iTunes and then consolidating to it would have worked. See make a split library portable for the approach I would have taken at the outset.
    If you rename the folder on F: breaking the links from the library you may be able to get iTunes to reconnect to the copies in the media folder on C: otherwise I have a repair tool for broken links.

  • Need help understanding playlists

    Hi folks - sorry for this basic newbie question but I couldn't find a definitive answer seaching previous discussions. Having never set up an iPod before, but having quite a few songs in my iTunes folders, I noticed that many songs are duplicated -- they automatically appear in my Recently Added playlist, perhaps also in the preset 90's Music playlist, and then again in my own artist-specific playlists, etc. Since my understanding is that iPod only updates through playlists rather than by individual song title, is the same song going to be taking up 2, 3, etc. times the space on my iPod? Should I delete the playlists that came standard when I first launched iTunes? Seems like a waste of space to have the same song repeating in multiple playlists...
    Thanks, guys!

    If you have only one copy of the song, that is, multiple playlists pointing to a single file (which is what you describe) then the iPod will only copy the file once, and have multiple pointers to it.
    Regards

  • Need help removing apple id from old songs

    hi, hope someone can help. just rebuilt my computer and put my songs from my old ipod nano onto itunes. only 3 songs were purchased yrs ago with my ex wife's account. when i click on those songs in itunes to play, it pops up with her apple id. how can i remove that so i can safely move songs back and forth to ipod and add new ones without losing those 3 or re-buying them???

    The only way I know of to "remove Apple ID" info off of previous purchased tracks is to have the original ID purchase the iTunes Plus version (DRM free version). That makes it available on all devices, not just authorized ones. They are less expensive to upgrade rather than buying them again outright. Hope this helps and good luck!

  • Need Help w/ Playlist

    I cannot make playlists for some reason. When I drag a song from my library to one of my playlists there is a circle sign with a diagonal slash through it and it won't copy into the folder. Right clicking on a song does not give me to option to add it to a playlist either. Any suggestions to fix this?

    Did you create the playlist with File > New Playlist? That would make it a regular Playlist.
    If by any chance you are talking about a Smart Playlist, rather than a regular Playlist, you cannot add stuff to it, since Smart Playlists fill up automatically according to their criteria.

  • Need help - File is impossible to delete

    I have the trial version of Photoshop CS2 installed, but there is one file I can not get rid of no matter what I try, even if I uninstall the program.
    The file is "Tieng Viet.html" in the Legal folder (the E, and the T are special characters, which I assume to be vietnamese).
    I've tried renaming it, deleteing it, using all sorts of deleting Apps, and nothing will work, or let me alter the file.
    I'd like to get rid of it since I can't turn off FileVault since it's not able to copy that file.
    Any ideas?

  • Need help in  simple script to delete backup folders datewise in windows

    Hi,
    I am using the script to copy the data folder and place it to backup directory as :
