iTunes Tip: Manually Manage your iPod/iPhone playlist.



Joshua Schnell | Sat, Nov 1, 2008

Earlier today I realized that something had happened with my iPhone that wouldn’t let me drag and drop certain tracks to the device. I was perplexed, but couldn’t for the life of me figure out what I did.iTunes.jpg Apparently you can turn off this ability by clicking on the check box to the right. I guess if you’re taking advantage of the syncing playlist option you wouldn’t really need to manually manage your iPod playlists. I thought I would pass this along just in case you’re having the same issue that I was. I’m not sure if this turned off by itself or if I managed to accidentally turn it off. My iTunes has been acting up lately. Just last week I had to reimport all of my albums because random albums were disappearing from the iTunes library. They would still be in my filesystem, just nowhere in the itunes listing. I should probably reinstall leopard. It’s about that time again!

    so if you're managing your ipod manually, so as not to erase the songs & videos not downloaded from your itunes but from other computer, how do you add new songs & movies to your ipod? hope you can help me with this…thanks
