Virtual DJ 8 - Mac iTunes Playlist Quick Fix

As with all Reggaerica Tutorials, we get right to the point!

If you have been given the run around when trying to fix your iTunes playlist issue on the forums and VirtualDJ site, look no further.

This is the fix for all users of iTunes 12 and up since it uses .itl files instead

1. Make sure VirtualDJ is closed

2. Open iTunes.

3. From the menu bar at the top of your computer screen, choose iTunes then Preferences.

4. Click the Advanced tab.

5. Select "Share iTunes Library XML with other applications."

That should do it!

Thanks to Google search that I stumbled on your solution to a problem that had exhausted my patience. Didn't suspect iTunes setting was blocking my VDJ7 for Pioneer DDJwego2. Many Thanks for sharing this Tip!

Hi all! Please forgive the late response I will create another video as soon as possible in reference to the question on song still not showing up in the list in the meantime I would scour through YouTube for other ways of achieving that goal. Thank you all for watching!

sir i have the free version of virtual dj 8 but i'm having difficulty connecting my itunes with virtual dj 8. i only get two or three songs and that it please help. i have a pc not a macbook

Great man but i still have a problem, even after saving the the music in itunes itself. when i open vdj, the artist names that i have for each song on itunes doesnt appear on vdj, only few do.

how do i make all the track details (artist, genre, etc) show up on vdj?

[honeyxi]

I have VirtualDJ 8 shows *some untitled songs in a few playlists* on my MacBook Pro 17" screen, it does show the names of the artists, and other features for the untitled songs of the album playlists.
Every playlist in my *iTunes 12 or djay Pro shows every song title.*

hey man i am paying monthly on iTunes for my music so the music is not officially mine is that the reason why the music i have on iTunes don't work on the virtual dj?

[tiaanduplessis]

Even if you do all that as displayed, my itune folders are empty ... nobody can explain to me why .. hope you can please explain the next step

[maxicisetv]

HI there, the 'share iTunes' option is no longer there in iTines. They seem to be making it ever more difficult for us to do a. job with music that we've paid for, What now? Many thanks in advance xx

[Jahfariinternational]

I tried this. But one question I have is why are my tunes from iTunes not reading in virtual DJ?

[cmeyerza]

Hey bud, I have done this and there has been no change what-so-ever... I have updated iTunes and Virtual DJ, so I am not sure what else to do.

[karenambrose]

I've done all that but my i tunes are still not on Virtual D J. They disappeared.
