itunes won't let me drag and drop songs anywhere

JJBro1 · Jan 20, 2010, 11:44 PM

I don't know what happened but all of a sudden itunes won't let me drag and drop a song onto my ipod or iphone, It won't even let me drag and drop a song in a playlists within itunes. Does anyone know what the problem is?

quit the app, then open it back up again. This will probably fix it.
iTunes is a horrible app, that's why it broke like this. Mine does the same thing sometimes. Don't worry about it.

Hopefully, not stating the obvious, but you do have it set to manually manage, correct?

I'm having the same problem and I already restarted everything. Still doesn't solve the problem.
My solution was to right click on the song / album cover / video and select "copy", than select a playlist or the iPhone music list and click "paste" using the iTunes menu on the top (Menu>Edit>Paste).
