Q or Enhancement: Different Playlist for different weekdays for iPod Alarm

Current:I can associate a Playlist for an Alarm Setting in IPOD classic.
Required: How to enable different playlists for different weekdays for an iPod Alarm?
Appreciate responses.

I think you will have to create a different alarm for each day. Name the alarm by the day of the week and select the desired playlist for that day of the week.

  • Tip for creating auto-updating Smart Playlists for iPod

    Short Answer:
    Don't use Smart Playlists that use rules with nested playlists which aren't completely on iPod.
    Long Answer:
    If you're like me and use nested Smart Playlists, make sure that any Smart Playlist you want to have auto-update on the iPod doesn't use a rule which uses as a criteria a playlist that isn't fully present on iPod (exclamation point next to the Smart Playlist in iTunes when connecting iPod to your Mac).
    For example, I have Smart Playlists to exclude certain tracks in other Smart Playlists (Streams, Spoken Word,tracks under 1 minute, etc.). These are tracks that I usually want to exclude in other Smart Playlists but don't want to add those rules each and every time.
    The problem is that iPod looks to see if that 'excludes' playlist is present, which obviously it isn't because by it's nature it's designed to exclude tracks. If a nested playlist isn't present it seems the auto-update will not work.
    My solution was to create a new Smart Playlist specifically for the iPod, which contained all the rules of my "master exclude" Smart Playlist and any other I wanted specifically for the iPod.
    My beef with Apple here is that I can't duplicate a Smart Playlist, which is possible in iPhoto. Being able to do that would make things much easier.
    I have since gone about creating 'excludes' playlists so that the playlist itself excludes tracks; previously I was creating a Smart PLaylist that contained (included) all the tracks I wanted to exclude, then using that as a rule (Playlist is not 'Excludes') in other playlists. The second method worked fine on iTunes, since all the tracks are present, but it creates problems on iPod.

    I've posted a better version of this thread in the "Using the iPod with color display" forum.

  • Maximum of 1363 playlists for iPod sync?

    I have iTunes sync selected playlists to my iPods, but I have encountered what appears to be a playlist limit to do this. I have a very large library (+18k songs) and a large number of playlists (around 1400). iTunes does not show any playlists after the 1363th. Even worse is that the last time I synced my iPod, playlists that were alphabetically less than 1363 but now past that point are deleted off the iPod without warning. Is this a known limitation? I haven't been able to find any information online about this. I was able to produce this error on multiple iPods (both Mac and Windows formatted) on both iTunes for the Mac and Windows).
    macbook pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    ok going by my quotes/your answers
    you state no recreation of music as itunes does this..how do you automatically sync your ipod/itunes then to the ways we chose the album to play??
    how do you choose the playlists to be synced to your ipod??
    the 10-20 cd issue..i create a playlist of great tracks i want to hear from 10-20 cds as some are crap etc so we make a playlist of what we want. then this playlist automatically gets synced everytime it gets new tracks added to it with the ipod that has this playlist. going by the browse option it is limited to just that artists, albums etc and not MY playlist that i made from it, what order i want etc.
    you question playlists as if there should not be so many- as in 1400 is a lot...beside the point that i should not feel limited to how many playlists i have, 1400 is not that many to music collectors, i have over 25,000 songs in my itunes, i collect vinyl and record that also. so a playlist for each piece of vinyl. The point of the matter is limiting playlists creates nothing but problems, was it placed to itunes to be a solution to anything?? No
    fine example-original soundtrack The devil wears prada it is missing 2 great songs from it KT turnstill and Madonna Jump. so i make a playlist with the original soundtrack and i add the missing songs. I should be able to choose that playlist and those2 extra songs are there. but the problem is i have so many corrected soundtracks, albums etc that i cant even get to my S section to load to my ipod automatically. when i then use the browse section to add the soundtrack it can be added but missing the 2 songs. hence frustration occurs. and this is the same for me using the example of adding the 4 new tracks to ipod. if it is in a playlist with my own compilations of songs they will not load using the itunes browse section that ppl keep referring to. so this is a "DRAMA"
    most albums we buy dont have songs we all love, we change tracks about, we have fav pref in how we want to listen to them etc and this is what ppl that have been commenting on this issue have been forgetting.we have a choice in how and what we listen to and apple is taking this away by limiting music playlists. so hencea playlist is needed for each and every album.and doing it the browse way etc is not the answer.
    i wish i was to be wrong and that there was a way for me to be shown that you can load any compilation, and listen to it however you like but sadly it is not the case. See how frustrating and slow it is having to delete a playlist one by one just so i can get to the 1400 mark to load my music as i have it. so at least 1600 playlists @ 30sec-1min per playlist to delete (my playlists approx 3000) so about 14hrs non stop deleting to get the most out of my ipod/itunes...fun fun fun..NOT and there are better things i could have done today on my day off.

  • How To Create Backup Playlist for iPod

    Can someone tell me how to create a backup playlist for songs on my iPod?  If I ever need to use iPod Restore, I know that the iPod will return to factory settings, and all my songs will be wiped out.  I would like to create a backup playlist that will allow me to select all songs and then drag and drop them into the "wiped clean"  iPod (under iTunes "Devices") after Restore is complete.  I have created an iPod Playlist folder under "Playlists", but iTunes will not allow me to  drag and drop music from my iPod into the new folder.

    Senuti provides a great software program for backing up ipod songs, etc., to iTunes on a Mac .  Here is the link:

    I tried it, and it worked perfectly.

  • Playlist for ipod video in gray

    we have two ipod videos here. one is fine. the other updates and works but the playlist for it is gray when we hook to itunes so we can't edit this one individually

    That's because it's set for auto updating. If you want to handle it manually, go to iPod Options, and select 'manually update.'

  • Repeat option on playlists for ipod touch 2nd generation

    I want to know how ton get my ipod touch to repeat the playlist so that once the last song on the playlist ends it will just start from the beginning of the playlist? I was able to do it for other ipods in the past such as ipod video 5th generation and ipod nano 2nd generation

    If you know the answer to a question why waste sometimes time by posting a download link??? Anyway, all you have to do is hit the the repeat button once during a song in your playlist and the playlist will play through and then repeat, if you hit it twice the current song will repeat.

  • Computer has different name than Itunes for Ipod Touch

    I have an Ipod Touch 4th Generation 32gb. I have had no problems with it or with Itunes. My Mom came last Saturday to visit and she needed to charge her Ipod Touch so I hooked it to my computer where I always have a cord and charged it for about 45 minutes or so. I have no problem with my Ipod or with Itunes BUT when I go look at the device now on my computer,when it is connected to USB cord, it show "Marys Ipod" now instead of "Steves Ipod". In Itunes, it is still "Steves Ipod" and I can sync and all but I really want to get rid of "Marys Ipod" off my computer even though when I open it up, it is my ipod, just mislabed. I know because it has my pictures and her's is only 8gb. My Ipad2, is fine when I hook it up to the USB cord, It says "Steves Ipad" but when I hook my USB cord to my ipod touch, it still reads "Marys Ipod". Is this something I should be concerned about or is it not worth the hassle of trying to restore, etc? I have tried to change the name, but Windows won't allow. I do have Windows 7. I have also got the new update on Itunes and the new software(5.0) version.
    I am stumped. I have googled this and have searched for over 3 hours today on how to fix this. Ready to bang my head against the wall. I have did a reboot on Ipod, I have restarted the computer. I have not reinstalled anything including Itunes.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do? I would sure appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.

    I just found the answer to this after hours of searching online. Make sure your iPod is hooked up to your computer & turned on.
    Click on "Start" and in the search box type "regedit". This will display a program called "Registry Editor". Open it.
    Click on the "Edit" tab and select "Find...". Type "Mary" in the search box and click "Find Next". It will bring up a list of everything that has "Mary" in it. (You may have to click on "Find next" under the "Edit" tab in order to find the associated items that have something to do with both "iPod" and "Mary".) What you need to pay attention to is not the NAME, but the DATA column. For me, the wrong iPod name was listed in 2 places in the data column. The actual names of those 2 items were "FriendlyName" and "Label".
    Once you find the associated items that have to do with both the iPod and "Mary", right click on one of them. Select "Modify...". A box will open giving a "Value Name" box and a "Value Data" box. The "Value Data" box should say "Mary's iPod". All you have to do is change it to "Steve's iPod" and click "OK". Repeat the "Modify..." and renaming of the "Value Data" steps for every item that says something about "Mary's iPod".
    Close the Registry Editor. Open "my computer" and see that it changed the name of your iPod back to "Steve's iPod".
    Best Answer So far.....it really works...Thanks a million

  • Why is the music I drag from itunes displaying different on my ipod/phone? For example, Artist: Beyonce, Song: 1 1, Album:4 (in iTunes); my ipod/phone shows the artist as blank, but the song and album remain. It does this for numerous songs.

    Sometimes if I change the info for a song in itunes, it will show on my ipod that I never changed it. Its so frustrating because it unorganizes my music on my device. Someone Help!!! PLease!!

    Since there were only 8 songs left on the iPod i could just do a  'hold and slide my finger' motion on the name of the song and there would be a delete option. Did that to all the songs and re-synced th ipod again to the computer, this time checking the 'sync music' box. It worked. I dont know if this is only available for iPod touch or for other iPod's as well

  • HT1399 Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

    Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

    I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming.  So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on.  But the ipad is a different story.  I have the music and artist but not one playlist  I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this. 
    Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
    I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z.  Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac.  Which I do talk highly of all the time.  But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
    I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not.   Any ideas?
    Thanks Al

  • How do I create separate playlists for two ipods/one library and them sync them?

    I have an older classic ipod, my daughter has an older nano.  I got new laptop and have managed to sync my ipod and ipad with success, as well as move my library from old pc to new laptop.  Now I am trying to update and sync my daughter's ipod.  It says that it is synced but nothing changes.  I believe I had set up two different libraries on the old pc, and so certain cds had been copied into her library.  I can't find them in the earlier mentioned transfered library.  That's not a big deal, as I can just use those cds to add them back in later (more work though).  I've read older community posts on my issue, but any article links on how-to are too old, I guess.  I like the idea of using just one library and creating playlists for each ipod to sync to, but cannot figure out how to do this.  Also, do I need to restore my daughter's ipod to get the ball rolling?  She's taken a couple of videos she likes and I'm not sure I want to lose it in the restore.  Any advice greatly appreciated. 

    Hey puckaluck8,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The following article provides different methods for managing multiple devices with one computer:
    How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
    You mentioned syncing separate playlists, which is definitely a good method. The other option you may want to consider is called "Manually Syncing", which you can read about here:

  • Enhanced Interface Determination for IDOCs

    Hi All,
        I've a query on the usage of Enhanced Interface Determination for IDocs.
    I've to create IDocs based on the condition in the Message Mapping i.e. say if recordtype in the source is A then IDoc1 should be created and if recordtype is B then IDoc2 should be created.
    Is it possible to use Enhanced Interface Determination to achieve this??..  Because I was told by someone that Enhanced Interface Determination can't be used for IDoc based scenarios though am using External Definitions for the mapping purpose. Please clarify.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards,
    Joe.

    Hi Sridhar/ Bhavesh,
                           Thanks for your prompt reply. I think I wasn't clear in my previous post.
    The scenario is the input file has three different record types (3 different structures) and the IDocs should be created based on the record type. I don't think I can use the condition based scenario as the record types are totally different. Please suggest.
    Thanks,
    Joe.
