Want to Transfer playlists from G4 iBook to MacBookPro

In order to transfer playlists from iTunes 7.0.2 on my G4 iBook to iTunes 9.0.2 on my MacBk pro (running on OS 10.5.8), okay to export an xml from iTunes 7.0.2 and import into the computer with iTunes 9.0.2?

i would try with one playlist first.
in iTunes, click once on a playlist to highlight it. go file > library > export playlist. the result will be a .txt file. move that file to the destination machine (USB stick or via your network) and import the .txt file in iTunes.
if all tunes on the playlist are present in the library of the destination machine, the .txt file should come in as a playlist without any error message.
does that work ?

    Connect the iPhone and select it in iTunes. Click the gray disclosure triangle the left of the iPhone name in iTunes. Select the playlist you want on the iPhone then right click - Export.... Save it as .xml file on the desktop. Then iTunes menu File > Library > Import playlist and select the .xml file you saved on the desktop.

  • Can I transfer playlists from my iPad to my new mac?

    When I sync my iPad with my new mac I get a message that suggests that I can only transfer to the iPad from the mac.  I have playlists on my iPad that I would like to transfer onto my new mac.  Can this be done? And how?
    Thanks

    You can transfer the playlist (the actual list), but you can't make a copy of the music from the iPad to iTunes, unless they were purchased via iTunes.

    how do you transfer playlists from on computer to a new one, library has already been transfered

    - Why not just copy the iTunes computer folder to the new computer?
    - You can transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - You can transfer non-iTunes purchased music by using one of the third-party programs discussed in ths previous discussion:
    Best iPod to PC
    - Unless you can move/copy the iPod backup file from your old computer to the new one and restore from backup, you will have to restore to factory defaults/new iPod and thus loose all app date. The iPod backup file is located:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

    How do I transfer playlists from one ipod to another?

    It needs to go through iTunes.  But there is no way to transfer songs from iPod to iTunes library (except for music you purchased from iTunes Store).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the song files are on your computer, add them to your iTunes library.  You can then sync your iPhone to the iTunes library.
    Alternately, if you sign up for the iTunes Match service, your iTunes music library on your computer will become available from iCloud.  You can set your new iPhone (assuming you bought a "new" iPhone) to sync from iCloud, instead of from your computer's iTunes.  All of your music will be available wirelessly, wherever you have an Internet connection. 

  • I want to transfer files from a functioning hard drive in a nonfunctioning MacBook Pro to an external drive. I have an IDE/SATA drive adapter. The files won't fit on the drive for a working computer I have. Can I use it to transfer files to the external?

    Good luck and you are welcome.
    Like I said, I bought one of their inexpensive enclosures and now can use the hard drive just as a source for the files that are on it...my external drives are much larger and faster so I just plug that drive in when I need something from it.
    This one is on sale for $16 http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/ES2.5BPU2S/

    how do I find out what kind of fire wire port I have on my desktop? I want to transfer video from my camcorder.

    If you have Firewire 800 it's a boxy looking port, the Firewire 400 is thinner and has a arrow looking shape, you can get a adpater.
    FW800 is simply FW 400 x 2, so the adapter gives you FW 400.

    How to i transfer playlists from my iPhone to iTunes? They are all on my iPhone but not on iTunes how do i get them on there?

    iTunes will only transfer purchases back to your computer using the iTunes > File > Transfer purchases from XXX's iPhone.  It will not transfer playlists or non-purchased songs.
    Here is an application that will transfer playlists and non-purchases (from iTunes) songs.  There is a free demo limited to 1,000 songs or you can buy the full featured version for $18.99.  http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/

  • Want to transfer data from 2 source systems

    hi everybody ,
    i want to transfer data from 2 source systems into a info cube, how can we do that and  i dont want to transfer duplicate data from two source systems. like i have 1,2,3,4 records in one source system and 1,5,6,7 records in the other system.i want to transfer 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 in to the cube. can u help me to solve this problem?

    Hi
    The solution given by Paolo will not work 100% correct.
    Even if you create ODS and with record number as key of  ODS the data in ODS will be record no 1,2,3,4,5,6,7
    But data of record 1 will be overwritten (first it will hold data from 1st source system and then from 2nd source system) since record number is key. Also you can not differentiate the values of data that means which data is coming from which system.
    For this you need to use compouding of infoobjects. In this expample, record number should be compounded with Source system ID infoobject-0soursystem. Then your ODS will contain source system ID along with record number as keys and record 1 will not be overwritten.
    Have a look at SDN threads on compounding-

    Make sure your iMac is on 10.6.8 or higher and your iTunes is up to date.  If it is, then restart your computer, open iTunes, then plug in your device.  If it still is not showing up, follow the steps listed here: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

  • I want to transfer music from an old iphone to a new itunes library , but not working

    I want to transfer music from an old iphone to a new itunes but its not working

    If you backup with iTunes and you restored from the backup and the data are gone, then there is no where to retrieve them from unless you have another backup that contains those data.
    Launch iTunes on the computer and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices. You will see a window with all of your backups listed in it.
    If you see a recent backup that you are certain contains the data that you need, recover deleted data from iPhone backup.
    If your note is gone from iCloud.com there is only a few ways to possibly recover it.
    The first things I would check is a iCloud Backup, a iTunes Backup, or a 3rd party email that may have contained the note. To restore from a iCloud or iTunes backup follow this link. This article explains how to restore a device from either back up.
    Note if you have backed up since the note went missing, you will not have the note on the backup. Make sure you do not back up if trying to restore from a back up as this will back up the content without the note.
    To get to the "Set up assistant" on an iOS device, you must go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. Once the phone restarts, you will be at the "Set up Assistant"
