Where is the iPod playlist in iTunes?

Hello dear members,
I have a problem with my iTunes, could someone kindly help me please? My iPod is old. It's the 20GB black and white one from a long time ago. Recently, I bought a new laptop with Windows Vista on it, and I got iTunes version 7. It detects my iPod, and I can put songs on it, but I just don't know where the playlist is! The library playlist is there, but where is the iPod one when I plug it in? It used to show up when I had my old laptop with an old version of iTunes. When I click my ipod, it only has four options: Summary, Music, Podcasts, Contacts. No playlist. Please help!
Thank you

You can only automatically sync playlists using Windows Media Player 0 as far as I know. There's lots of other software out there that can use the Media Transfer Protocol of the Vision:M, but I'm not sure what they can do.
Creative's software is desperately lacking in the playlist sync area, so you're not being a BDU

  • How do i copy an ipod playlist into itunes- the songs are already in my library

    how do i copy an ipod playlist into itunes- the songs are already in my library

    I found out an easy way....
    With iPod connected to iTunes, right click on the iPod playlist you want to export, choose the Export option on the menu that appears. 
    iTunes will prompt for a location and format to save the file.  Save playlist as an XML file using whatever name and location you want (I saved as "songs.XML" to my desktop).
    Then, in iTunes, go to File - Library - Import Playlist and selet the XML file.  The playlist will be created in the iTunes library and will contain any tracks that are refereced in the original playlist that already exists in the library.
    There may be a mesage, "Some of the songs in the (filename).XML were not imported because they could not be fund".  This is because the songs you are importing have to already be in your iTunes library.
    I just did this with my kid's iPod and it worked great.  I found this tip on Apple Support Communities (discussions.apple.com/thread/2577582?start=0&tstart=0).  It was posted by SpyglassSally and my original search question in Goole was was, "How do i copy a playlist from an iPod to iTunes".
    Thanks for the responses and I hope this helps anyone else.

    Now I don't know what to do.
    Thank you very much

    Plug your iPod in and when it appears in iTunes, click on it from under Devices in the left hand pane.  This brings you to the Summary tab.  Locate and click on the Music tab.  What configurations do you have made from under this tab?  Is your iPod configured to sync those playlists?

  • Where is the "source list" within iTunes?

    I am completely new to iTunes & iPod, and am having serious trouble just trying to figure out the basics.  I believe that either something is wrong with  my USB port or something may be wrong with the iPod Nano, but cannot say for sure. Ultimately, I need to know what/where is the Source List on iTunes.  I have the most recent version of iTunes downloaded & installed.
    Thanks,
    ImaHousemouse

    Prior to iTunes 12 the sources list used to appear above all other playlists in the sidebar. The sidebar could be turned on or off with Ctrl+S. The source list is now a row of icons. Press the ellipsis button (highlighted) then use the checkboxes to show or hide sources. Press the Playlists button when viewing a source to display the playlists sidebar.

  • IPod Playlists in itunes 5.0

    I have lost my playlists in iTunes but still have them on my iPod, how can I copy just the playlists from the iPod back to iTunes.
    I have all the songs on the iPod and the Mac, so it's just the lists that I want.

    When I connect my phone, it doesn’t show up in the source list in iTunes. What should I do?
    First check that you meet the minimum system requirements mentioned above. Also, be sure that you’ve either installed iTunes from the CD that came with your phone or installed it from the iTunes download web page. Visit www.itunes.com/download to download the latest version of iTunes. Also, be sure that your phone is in “Memory Card” mode. To do this on your phone, go to Settings > Connection > USB Settings. Be sure the Default Connection has “Memory Card” selected. If you are still having difficulty, choose iTunes Music Store Service & Support from the Help menu in iTunes. For hardware issues with your phone, visit: http://www.hellomoto.com/ROKR or contact your cellular phone provider.

  • Where is the Genius Sidebar on itunes 11 ?

    Where is the Genius Sidebar on itunes 11 ???? Don't tell me that they have remove this wonderful feature ?....

    I looked under file but I couldn't find the "Genius & Playlist" option. I also looked under the other options on the top left side but I couldn't find it there either. And all "Genius suggestions" does for me is show similar songs already purchased in my library. It doesn't show me anything new that I haven't purchased.

  • HT1947 where is the devices list on itunes?

    where is the devices list on itunes?

    How did you (Sir WLC, first reply) get that list to appear?
    I have used iTunes to download a bunch of podcasts.  They show up in the "iTunes Media Library" folder.  I cannot figure out how to persuade iTunes to move the things to the shuffle.
    I have a gen3 shuffle and iTunes 11.0.1.12 running on WinXP.  If i run help/diagnostics, (connectivity and sync only), all "connectivity" tests pass but the device sync test says "no iPod touch, iphone or ipad found" and "one or more tests failed".  So is the "gen3 ipod shuffle" not SUPPOSED to pass (it is not a ~touch, phone, or pad)? 
    The shuffle (and one book file i dragged directly onto it) is visible to the Windows "file explorer", and that one book will play on the shuffle.  Nonetheless, when it is plugged in to the USB port, the orange light continues to blink; it does not turn green, as the PDF for the thing suggests it will do when fully charged.  Is blinking orange the expected behavior for a fully charged device?
    Thanks.

  • HT1657 Where are the rented movies on iTunes located....I see it on my phone, but can not locate the movie on any other computer.  Thank you!

    Where are the rented movies on itunes located?  I see them on my iphone, but I am unable to locate them in my itunes, even via searching the name.  Thank you!

    You cannot.
    from the article you linked:

  • Any way to reset the iPod preferences in iTunes?

    For a while now I've had a problem where my iPod Shuffle is recognized as a Shuffle by the Finder, but not by the iPod updater or iTunes. They both seemed to think that the Shuffle was actually a normal iPod. Contacts and calendars would try to sync and even if I only let a couple songs get transferred, I can't hear them with the Shuffle anyway.
    This problem had gone away for a couple weeks. My computer was restarted and all of a sudden iTunes was recognizing my Shuffle as a gasp Shuffle. Unfortunately, today it went back to thinking it was some other kind of iPod. So I did a software update (iTunes 6.0.3 to 6.0.4 and a security update) and allowed the computer to restart. Still having the same darn problem. In iTunes the Shuffle isn't recognized as a Shuffle but is recognized as a normal iPod.
    When it shows up on the desktop, however, it has the Shuffle icon.
    My Powerbook running the same OS and software versions works fine - but all my music is on my desktop. Please someone tell me how to get iTunes to work properly!

    You could try if deleting the iPod prefs. helps.
    Move 'com.apple.iPod.plist' (in ~/Users/YourUsername/Library/Preferences) to the trash.
    Run iTunes. iTunes will create a new iPod prefs. file.
    If this doesn't work, you might have to restore the iPod:

    Where is the store menu in iTunes?  I updated my computer and want to authorize it.  I deauthorized the old computer (and probably my desktop at a different location, and want to authorize the new one.  The help says that I need to clickon the store menu in iTunes.  I do not see any store menu.  I can access songs that I purchased a while back, but cannot download any new purchases.  If I cannot get this worked out, how do I recoup my money for the new songs?  Also, can I transfer the songs I purchased to another service?  Brad

    Where is the File sharing in Itunes window?

    Normally set in iTunes->Preferences->Sharing. However, with the paucity of details, such as computer, OS,  iTunes version, and what you're trying to do, just a WAG.

  • Where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar

    where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar, I am trying to remove photos from my ipad by restricting them from appearing after synch.

    I was struggling with this too - but seem to have found the issue.  It appears the photo synch option in iTunes isn't available unless the photos are out of synch.
    This is incorrect.
    The Photos tab is always available when you have your iDevice connected.
    First open iPhoto, move the photos you want to get rid of to the trash, then close iPhoto.
    No one seems to want to delete the photos from iPhoto/computer.
    They just don’t want them to sync to the iPad.
