Play list xfer to new windoz 'puter

I had to replace my business computer with a new one, how do I transfer my playlist to the itunes on the new computer from my ipod nano? the songs appear but it is all greyed out. I have shareing turned on.
Is this possible?
Thanx

By default, iPod's will not let you "drag and drop" from the iPod to the computer to transfer back, the transfer is kind of made to be one way.
However here are a few ways of transferring music back to a computer from the iPod.
Try Yamipod, a free third party program

Also see this MacMuse thread for a manual way to do it:

  • HT3819 I am in the process of switching over to my new Mac Book Pro computer.   With that being said, I am trying to get my ITunes play list onto my new computer.  How do I go about doing that.  My husband has set up icoud for us, so what is the best way

    How do I switch my Itunes accounts into this new computer?

    Copy the /Home/Music/iTunes/ folder to an external drive. Connect the drive to the new computer and transfer the iTunes folder into the /Home/Music/ folder on the new computer.

  • Play List not playing playlist

    I read one other post about this issue and hopefully you guys can help.
    Recently one (only one) of my PlayLists quit working. I mean, I go into play list "A" and hit "play" but only one song will play. Other play lists work fine.
    I have rest my iPod.
    I have renamed this play list.
    I have copied file from this play list to a new one.
    But nothing seems to work.
    The other post that I found about this was not an iPod video. It seems to have something to do with "shuffle" and the newest versions of software.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    Paul in Arizona, USA

    I am having similar problems ... before and after the new update (7.0.1). Playlists still are not playing. They show up, the items are in the playlist, but they do not play one after another. I have to click them each individually.
    I did note that this occurs with playlists consisting of podcasts.

  • I downloaded the new version of itunes and it changed my path. I have over 10,000 songs in 100's of play list. This is the third time it has happened. It is putting file://localhost in front front of the path. Does anyone know why and has a solution   RJ

    Hello there, RJ Quick.
    I've located the following Knowledge Base article that might be the information you're looking for:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Change where your iTunes files are stored
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12165
    The following section may be of help:
    Change where imported files are stored
    Choose iTunes > Preferences and click Advanced.
    Click Change and select a new location for your files.From now on, new songs and other items you import will be stored in the new location. Songs you’ve already imported stay in their current location.To go back to storing imported files in the iTunes folder, choose iTunes > Preferences, click Advanced, and click Reset.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • Playlist has up to 50 empty play lists for some artists or albums that I have not put there?

    , & growing have spent at least 6 hours with ? supervisors 0 solutions also match, dups and deletes from my albums when used. I spend 80% time on Mac fixing 20% using. Also have soent over $400.00 having Mac in shop for corrupted files, programs move to wrong places, Will not back up time machine to time capusle, wich now shows up as two data files of 1T ea and it is a 3T time capsule.
    Can not afford the money or time to keep it working. Have had two Macbook pros prior with normal problems but iMac should have flown out my window a long time ago. I hate to turn it on because once on I just spend all my time fixing issus. #1 Mac fan prior to iMac. Have given up on support with a 20 issue and 2 fix ratio, that is about 20 hours talking with supervisors that don't know the answers so imagine the hours I spend reading, another pet peave, the answers you get in help. How many answers do you get that have nothing, what so ever, to do with your question? Yes I make my questions simple and to the point.
    The playlist issue, if anyone knows how to delete the playlists that show up from mars, that is faster than one by one, b ecause at that rate I can not keep up with the incoming duplicating and empty play lists.
    Does anyone know how to keep your albums locked so that songs do not dissapear and duplicate for no reason? When they duplicate I put the duplicate in trash now thinking that perhaps the Cloud had dups. But I am to the point of bypassing any help subjects because Mac does not know which is why they suggest the community for help. Would you buy another sony TV and a problem, you contacted sony and\ and they told you to call up other sony TV owners to find out how to work it?
    I may sound frustrated but I left that behind quite a while ago, apathetic, numb, tired, pretty much. But thats the american way and how other countries think about our government running us instead of us running it. Actually they mention scared of our government first, apathy second. Do not censor this as political it is just a backwards analogy where the fear comes afterward a chain of failed attempts to fix problems, by the experts, then my mates who are rowing in the upstream in same boat, waiting to row off the edge of the world.
    A bit melodramatic but that is now, not after wasting hours without results. Imediatly after the 15th or 16h time melo would not have work as a  preverb to any of the expressions that escaped from my ordinarily clean speach.

    If you really believe that your system has been compromised, here's what you do:
    Disconnect your Mac from your cable modem;
    Back up any documents on your system that are important to you;
    Boot your Mac from the system installation disks that came with it (insert the disk, restart your Mac, and hold down the "c" key until you get the "spinning gear" icon);
    Choose a language and click the arrow button to continue;
    From the Utilities menu, choose Disk Utility;
    In Disk Utility, select your computer's hard drive;
    Click the "Erase" tab;
    Click the "Security Options" button and select to have it overwrite all the data on the hard drive;
    Click the "Erase" button and allow it to process;
    Once the "erase process has completed (it will take a while), reinstall Mac OS X.
    Or, if this is too much for you to accomplish on your own, take your system to an Apple Store and have them help you perform these steps. If your system was indeed compromised, this will remove any such hack. You can then set up a new user account for the computer, reinstall your applications (reinstall only from original disks or downloads from the company making the software) and documents, and reconnect to the Internet.
    Note that when you reconnect to the cable modem, you may still get an IP address starting with 198. This is normal with some cable modems and probably not a cause for concern. It will not be an indication that your system is still compromised; that will not be possible if you perform all the above steps.
    Regards.

  • New purchases at the bottom of the "purchased" play list

    When I buy music on iTunes on my mac, and syncs to my iPod Touch, the newest tracks are listed at the top of the play list. This is what I want. But, when I buy tracks directly on my iPod Touch, they are added at the bottom of the list which is quite annoying, as all my other new tracks are at the top. Is there a way to solve this problem?
    The iPod-purchased songs automatically goes to the top of the list once i sync with my mac again, but that might be for whole weeks i don't sync.

    It is a fault with Hotmail caused by people sending you unwanted invitations. Go to Contacts>View Invitations and click No thanks to any unwanted people.

  • I would like to take a iTunes play list and put it on a USB drive for my car radio to stay in my car. Is there a way to do this through iTunes so you have all the song info and there's no number in front of the name of the song? Is there a program?

    iTunes only syncs to Apple devices.
    Assuming the media is not DRM protected, any of the media can be dragged and dropped from iTunes onto other drives (external, flash, etc) as the user chooses.

  • How do I change the new iTunes play list total time display from 1.5 hours format to exact display of 1hr 31min 12sec.

    In the new iTunes the play list total time displays in 1.5 hours format, how do I get it to clearly show 1hr 31min 12sec like before, I want the exact time so I can properly fit all the songs when I want to burn this playlist to a disc. You can no longer just click on it to change the display format. Nor can you right click, control click, or change it in options. If anyone knows I would very much appreciate your imput. Thank You.

    Actually, that's the problem ... in iTunes *11* it has stopped working.  I have the status bar displayed, and it is stuck on the 1.x hours format.
    That is very, very strange !!
    I can't get that to happen on mine. It worked in 11.0 and I updated today to 11.0.1 and it's OK.
    I've tried making a new playlist, I've tried changing an old playlist, smart playlist ...... all OK ????

  • With the new update iTunes lost my important play lists. Anyone else?

    With the new update iTunes lost my important play lists. Anyone else?

    If you have a backup on iCloud or iTunes you would not have lost all your data, the update went fine on my phone and my wifes and many others. On forums you dont see the millions of users saying it went well, just the few with issues. If you had no backup thats not Apples fault, thats yours. The same will happen whatever platform you go to if you dont back your data up.

    Thank you Csound1, ok I guess I did manage to delete it but now when I copy new mp3 files they come as mpeg and iCoud won't accept them? Why? Do I have to convert them all now or can I set it somewhere to take them as mp3's. Appreciate the help. Have a great day! Cheers Steve

  • Downloaded 11.0.3 (42) 64 bit to my MacBook Pro and it crashes every time I select a song a use the 'add to' function to add to a play list. It's never done this before, is it a bug with the new version?

    You could just disable updates. Change these settings in about:config.
    * app.update.auto - set to false
    * app.update.enabled - set to false
    You can still check for updates with the "Check for Updates" button in the About Firefox window, but it will download the update file anyway if there is an update available. You can also check which is the current release from here:

  • I want to have my iTunes play lists and play counts on my new MacBook Air

    I want to have my iTunes play lists and play counts on my new MacBook Air transferred over from my old (4 years and dying) MacBook Air.
    Thanks for any and all help.

    Copy the entire iTunes folder including the iTunes library file from your old Mac to the same Music folder on your new Mac. Then down the Option key while launching iTunes and select the copied iTunes folder. That should get you all your  playlists, playcounts etc.; those are stored in that iTunes library file.
    Regards.
