To the best of my knowledge, nothing changed with the way that manually managing content works with iTunes. Make sure that you are following the instructions as described here.


Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod


If you are following these instructions and still having problems, describe what is happening in detail when you post back. We know that it's not working for you, but I mean details of exactly what happens when you drag and drop.

You may notice that some people are fond of using iPad Air/mini to listen to music while doing other things like reading, writing. The Apple's iPad Air/mini is designed to work seamlessly and able to play the music smoothly. If you prefer to enjoy the music on iPad Air/mini like people mentioned above, you are willing to transfer some beautiful melodies downloaded on your computer to iPad Air/mini. So the question is how to transfer music from laptop to iPad?
