How can I move songs around in my playlist?

I used to be able to press and drag but that doesn't seem to work anymore. Thx

Bergsteiger,
Open the playlist. View > View Options, and set "Sort By" to "Manual Order." Then you can drag songs up and down to order the playlist.

Suddenly can't move songs in itunes playlists

I've been using iTunes ever since it came out and I use it all the time. Suddenly today I can't move songs around in my playlists. I tried making a new playlist and moving songs from the library into it and even that doesn't work (I can't actually move a song from my music library into any playlist any more)
I've checked through all the other threads where people have had this problem and done everything suggested but nothing is working.
I do have the playlist number arrow highlighted
I do have manual ordering turned on in the view options
I've logged out and restarted several times
I have shuffle turned off
The only possible thing I can think of is that I got an invitation to upgrade to iTunes 11.4 which I said I would download, but although I've been taken into the app store, nothing is showing. Could it be something to do with iTunes 11.4 or the app store?

Ahhh!!! I closed down for a few hours and now it's working fine!

After upgrading iTunes I can no longer play my songs. It says that "The song ________ could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I have NO clue where to look.

After I recently Upgraded iTunes I can no longer play any movies or songs. It says that "The song ______ can no longer be playe because the original file cannot be found. Would you like to locate it?" I have no clue where to look as I'm not tech savvy. I did look in previous itunes libraries file and it's empty. Any and all help is appreciated.

The links below illustrate how your iTunes should look if you use default settings in preferences. If you don't use those settings then you have to know what you're doing.
Image of folder structure and explanation of different iTunes versions (turingtest2 post) - https://discussions.apple.com/message/13025536 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/17457605
The above links also illustrate the Media folder and its subfolders. Look for a file in there in the logical structure by folder artist and album. If you're lucky, linking one file will get an offer to link others and it iwll all come together again.
I see you are running OSX 10.5.8 it would help to know which version of iTunes you use now and which one you used before.

Can't move songs on iPod

I went to update my iPod today and discovered that I could no longer move songs around on the iPod in iTunes. I used to be able to play music off the iPod in iTunes, and now the library on the iPod is faded out (meaning I can't do anything with the music like make playlists or delete songs...I can't even add individual songs when I use the manual sync option). I can still listen to the music on the iPod and add songs to the default "untitled playlist", but I can't even rename the untitled playlist when the iPod syncs. I tried chosing the automatically sync option, and once everything had been re-imported into my iPod i got a warning that some songs were not imported because they could not be played on my iPod - these were songs that were on it before and I had no problems with. Finally I tried restoring the iPod and re-syncing everything, but the same songs don't work and I still can't change stuff on iTunes.
I also noticed that when I click on my iPod on the desktop I no longer have a folder for music - i only have notes, contacts and calendars.

The songs are "greyed out" because you have the iPod set to transfer songs automatically. That is also why the padlock icon appears at the bottom of iTunes next to the space used/available.
If you want the songs to be bold and selectable/editable, then you need to change to manage the content manually.

How can i move songs to my playlists using my iphone rather than computer?

How can I move songs to my playlist using my iphone rather than my computer?

@allamb & stephanW
I found this thread via a search, I have a new iphone 5 (also i am completely new to iphone, having been the last few years on android) and i have spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how to add a song to a playlist.
You see i sit a work and listen to dozens of tunes, and i want to add a paticular song to a particular play list, and low and behold I can't, excuse my special characters but "What the f#%k itunes/apple??? - how can this be? Such a commonly needed function and for itunes to be the number music player in the world not to have this feature is ludicrus.
I am lucky that i only have about 500 songs on my iphone thus far, i feel sorry for stephanW with 4000+ !!
Apple - please fix - this is schoolboy programming stuff...

You need to sort on the leftmost column of numbers, then you can move the files around.

My photos in a folder are not in the correct order. How can I move them around?

I Am making an album of the life of an aunt. My photos are all in the wrong order. How can I move them around in the folder?

lets use the correct words so we do not mis-communicate
are you using iPhoto or the finder? Never touch your photos using the finder if you use iPhoto!
In iPhoto folders can not hold photos - folders hold only other folders or albums - albums hold photos -- within an album you can manually arrange photos as you wish

Can I move photos around in iPad? There are some photos in camera roll, are those the ones I took with iPad? Then there are some that are imported-I guess those are the ones from my camera. Can I combine them into different albums? Thanks

Can I mover photos around in iPad? There are photos on the camera roll-are those the ones I took with iPad? Then there are the ones labeled as imported-I guess those are the ones I took with my camera? Can I combine pictures from both into one album? Thanks.

At the moment no, you cannot move photos between albums in the Photos app directly on the iPad - but with iOS 5 (which will be free to download) in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device.

Can I move only my iTunes movies, not my iTunes music, onto a flash drive? And, is there a program (apart from iTunes) that can play movies on MacBook Air?

I have a MacBook Air and I need to free up space...
1) I have three series of a tv show on my itunes which are taking up loads of memory - see image - I want to move these movie files onto a Flash Drive. However I do not want to move my itunes Music onto the flash drive, only my Movies, and want to keep my music on my hard drive.
Is this possible?
2) I have managed to copy the movie files onto the flash drive, however when I tried to play one to check that they were loaded properly it didn't have a program that could run the file (they have copied over in a m4V format). Do the MacBook Air's not have a separate program other than itunes that can play movies? If so, is there a program I can get to solve this problem? I went onto the App Store to see if there was something I could download, but all the apps were for creating DVD's, not simply playing them.
3) If 1. & 2. questions are solvable, will it then be safe to delete the movies from my itunes?
Thank you so much for any answers posted.
Best,
Eloise15.

If you can play the movies in iTunes, you should be able to open the movie files using Quicktime, which should already be on your system. If you have already transferred the files to your flash drive, open the flash drive in Finder, and hold control when you click on the movie file (or right click if you have the enabled) and select Open With Quicktime Player. This should play the movie directly from the flash drive.
If you want to set all .m4v files to open with Quicktime by just double clicking on the file, you can follow the steps here: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2573/os_x_how_to_change_default_application_to_op en_file_type/
3) If 1. & 2. questions are solvable, will it then be safe to delete the movies from my itunes?
You can move the TV shows to your flash drive by dragging them from the iTunes window to your flash drive in Finder or the flash drive icon on the desktop. When you are sure everything is transferred over to your external device, you can delete the movie from iTunes. I recommend playing the videos from the flash drive first before deleting them in iTunes.
To delete the videos from iTunes, you can highlight them and press the delete key on your keyboard. In the next prompt, you would want to move it to the trash so that it is deleted from your internal hard drive.
I hope that helps!
