I recently upgraded iTunes to v12.x and noticed that I am no longer able to export each individual play list I have to a TXT file which I keep for backup purposes. Is there another option available for doing this now and if so, what is it? Thank you
Windows 8
Press Alt or Ctrl+B to reveal the menu bar if required
The use File > Library > Export Playlist...

Thanks, but that appears to export the entire library as an XML file. Is it possible to export only 1 play list without exporting the entire library?
Select a playlist first.
Then use File > Library > Export Playlist...
BTW, you might like this: PlaylistsToFile

Thank you! That works just like I want it to. I just wish Apple wouldn't have deleted the Export Playlist option when right-clicking on the playlist to export.
You're welcome. 🙂
Quite a number of useful context menu options have been removed. 😟

I have the exact same question.
Problem is I don't have a File menu on iTunes 12 on my Mac. Alt or Ctrl+B are also not revealing any kind of menu bar.
Are you or Windows? Or does iTunes on Mac behave different or do I miss something? Can you post a screenshot of the this, hat would be great?!
Thanks.

Yes, running Windows here. The menus and keyboard shortcuts may be slightly different on a Mac, but all of the same functions should be accessible. Look under iTunes instead of File.
