  • Drag and Drop from itunes – not working

    Posted by Phil Peacock on February 8, 2013 at 10:09 am

    HI all
    Used to be able to drag and drop into the timeline of SVP12 (current build) from itunes which was great. With the new version of iTunes (11.0.1.12) it no longer seems to work. (All in mpeg3 format)

    I have searched the database and read previous posts but this has me baffled. Have I mislaid a codec somewhere in the itunes update? Which version incidently I hate.

    Any suggestions please.

    Huh . . .

    I’ve gone back to the Win7 Autoplay and mopped-up my iPhone Media to a Win7 PC folder, and be done.

    I got this from Dale Dietrich:

    I really really can’t be futzing about with iTunes this much.

    What would happen AFTER you disconnect your iPhone? You’d have to import a usable Win7 Folder anyway?

    My opinion? Get your stuff into the pC and take your iPhone away. That’s what I am doing from now on. Also the Autoplay gives you the simple option to erase AFTER import. How novel is that!? Try and do that through iTunes?

    No, I adore my iPhone, and the 158 apps I’ve got on it, makes my mobility around my World in London totally spiffing! But sometimes, just sometimes you’ve just gotta take the line of least resistance and be pragmatic.

    Cheers

    Grazie

    Thanks Grazie.

    Yep, those Apple products work straight out of the box, but it’s their way or no way!! Can’t stand it. It’s just that iTunes was a great program so I have it loaded on my pc with over 50,000 tracks that it organises for me.

    My issue now is though that, with the newest version, it seems, I can no longer find a piece of music in iTunes and simply drag it onto the time line.

    Very frustrating. Need to go through Vegas Explorer now which is not the same as playing it in iTunes.
