Zen V Plus sync of playlists from Windows Media Player

I am using automatic sync on windows media player 0 to my Zen V plus. The music is transferring, but I do not see the playlists being shown on the Zen player. Any ideas how to get them to sync as well so I don't have to build them on the player?

After trying things out for a while, I found that when you sync using Windows Media Player, the playlists selected will be on the Zen V plus screen for you to select. It will not display on the folders that list on the Windows Media Player display. I don't know why, but the important thing is that the playlists do end up on the Zen V plus so that you can select and play them.

Import library and playlists from Windows Media Player without duplicates

How do I import all the music and playlists from Windows Media Player into iTunes without creating duplicates?
I add the folder containing all my music to iTunes and all my music arrives nicely. I begin importing playlists and the playlist comes over with all the songs duplicated in my library. Most of my songs are on playlists but some are not.
After adding the music folder (approx 7000 songs) then all the playlists, my iTunes library now contains over 13,000 songs. The increase is due to the duplicates being created as the playlists are added.
If I skip adding the music folder and just add the playlists I get most of my music without as many duplicates but I am missing the songs which are not on any playlist. Thanks.

If it' sprotectged WMA files, no you can't add them.
If they are plain WMA (like RIPped from a CD) you can File -> Add to library and iTunes will import and convert them.

Importing Playlists from Windows Media Player

I was wondering if there was any way I could transfer all of my music from my Windows Media Player library, to my iTunes library. I have tried import on the "File" button on iTunes, but it didn't work.

Playlists from windows media player into itunes.

I used import playlist and it doesnt work. Like my computer doesnt even register that i clicked that. Help please!

Open itunes.
First go to the edit menu, select preferences, click the advanced tab, and select importing.For best song capacity on the ipod, make sure that the encoder is set to "Import using AAC encoder", and "High quality 128 kbps". Hit OK.
Then go to file menu, go to "add file to library" or if its a whole folder go to "add folder to library". Go through folders to find the songs (usually in "My Music" )
Select the song or songs you want to add, then hit open. To select more than one song from a folder, click the first one, hold shift, then click the last song you want to select.
A box will come up saying "one or more of the files you are adding are wma files",click ok and itunes will convert them into aac format (this could take a while if you have a number of songs).
It should be noted that this will only work with unprotected WMA files, not ones bought off of the windows media store or imported to windows media with protection.
Hope this helps

How do you add a playlist from windows media player to itunes

I want to put a playlist from wmp on to itunes

I can't see a way to export M3U playlists from WMP or import WPL playlists into iTunes. I could probably write a script to import directly from the WPL, but there is no point reinventing the wheel if this works for you: http://sourceforge.net/projects/wplm3uconvert/

I can sync media files from Windows Media Player to my ipod, but the information will not show up on my ipod. Why?

I HATE using iTunes (it's a pain in the bleeping arse) so, despite what someone from Apple told me, I tried to sync a song from Windows Media Player onto my ipod. The sync appears to be successful, and yet when I ejected my ipod to check to see if the song was on there, it was not. Why? And how do I get it on there? I want to avoid using iTunes at all costs.

Try MediaMonkey or Winamp. Unlike Windows Media Player which will just blindly throw the files onto the iPod's hard drive these two at least (there may be others) know that they have to update the device's database if you are going to be able to access the content that has been added.

How can I transfer playlist in Windows Media Player to me I Pad mini?

How can I transfer playlist in Windows Media Player to me I Pad mini?

Great question Rosa.Lee! Music is definitely a priority for my wireless device. From your PC, you can drag music to iTunes and it will automatically format. Then you can connect your iPad and sync.

Moving music from windows media player

i swear ive done this before, but i cannot remember how i did it. how do i move .wma files from windows media player into itunes library? i cannot drag them over, i just get the circle w/ a slash. ive tried sync-ing them directly onto my nano from media player program & it lists them in the pop up window on my computer, but they are lsited no where in song titles on my actual nano for me to access. ive tried converying the format & it wont allow me. i know it can be done, i just cant figure out how. thank you.

First, find out where Media Player has stored the music files on your computer. It typically is in Documents and Settings\(Your Name)\My documents\My Music and then there should be a folder that has a name that resembles Media Player. If you pull up Tools>Options and click the "Rip Music" tab it will show you where you have your music stored. So then pull up this folder that it tells you to, then pull up the iTunes window as well, and then simply drag and drop the folders into your iTunes music library. iTunes will convert the songs automatically for you, sometimes this may take a while. For example, I have 3300 songs on my Hard Drive and it took the entire day for iTunes to convert all of the ones it needed to. So just be patient and you should be good to go.

How do I transfer from Windows Media Player to ipod?

I have recently brought my first ipod and need help transfering my libary onto my ipod.

Hello bountyboy,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
The first thing you will have to do is import the music that is currently in your Windows Media Player library over to your iTunes library because that is the only way you will be able to sync any music to it. Here is an article that provides instructions on how to do this: [Transfer Music from Windows Media Player to iTunes|http://www.jakeludington.com/askjake/20080329_transfer_music_from_windows_media_player_toitunes.html]
From there, you will be able to set your iPod up to sync the music and such however you wish. If you need more help on how to sync the music to your iPod, I think this Apple support document should be able to assist you.

Restore them from the recycle bin if they are there, or your backup, or find an unerase or file recovery tool, or see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device if you have one.

How to convert WMA files (from Windows Media Player) to play in iTunes

How do I convert WMA files (from Windows Media Player) to now play in iTunes?

Use Edit > Preferences > General tab > Import Settings to set your desired import format and bitrate. Note there is no point converting 128k wma into 320k mp3, you'll just get bigger files with no improvement in quality. Once you have set your import settings just drag & drop the files you want converted into iTunes.

Moving music files from windows media player to itunes

when I first got my ipod, only half of my music files moved from windows media player into itunes. Is there anyway I can import the rest of the music from windows media player into Itunes? I have tried using the import function and add file or folder to library and they do not seem to work!

iTunes will not accept Window Media player tracks that are protected. If you imported them off your own CDs, did you check the option to apply protection to them? If so, your only choice is to re-rip those CDs.
