If so, do you have automatic synchronization on windows activation on or off (in general prefs)?</p></div>hendriktag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/451708882018-04-26T09:12:42Z2018-04-26T09:12:42ZRename Playlist/Matchlist<div><p>Hello Hendrik</p>
<p>Yes I do have it turned on. And it is a iTunes-based library. If I turn automatic synchronization off will I be able to rename the playlist?</p></div>cpwicks10934tag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/451708882018-04-26T09:32:58Z2018-04-26T09:32:58ZRename Playlist/Matchlist<div><p>What may happen is that you rename the list in beaTunes and then somehow trigger synchronization <em>before</em> iTunes was able to write the new name to disk. So in effect you are re-reading the <em>old</em> name. Turning off automatic sync may avoid this.</p>
<p>Once it's turned off, you will want to sync manually (via <code>File</code> -> <code>Synchronize</code>) every now and then.</p></div>hendriktag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/451708882018-04-26T09:38:02Z2018-04-26T09:38:02ZRename Playlist/Matchlist<div><p>Thanks again Hendrik</p>
<p>I have restarted in beaTunes and tried to rename it but it reverts back to the name “Playlist”. I then went to iTunes and was able to rename it in iTunes. .</p>
<p>I am running beaTunes 5.1.4</p>
<p>Thanks again for your help</p>

<p>can you please try this again in beaTunes and then upload your logs via <code>Help</code> -> <code>Upload Logs</code>? Perhaps there is something in there...</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>

Do you hit <code>ENTER</code>?
