... but not copy playlists.

You cannot copy playlists within iReal Book. It is on the todo list for a future update.
You might be able to Send your Playlist to yourself, pick up your email, click on the Playlist name, and irb will ask if you want to add it to your library. It should be renamed (with an appended 1 after it). You can rename it in Edit mode by tapping on the name in Playlist listings.

If for some reason it does not work with the appended 1, then you can do this:

There are two workarounds depending if you have the Mac editor or the Web editor. Basically you email the playlist from your iPhone/iPod touch to yourself on your computer and use whichever editor to change the Playlist name, then you email it back to yourself and pick up the email on your iPhone/iPod.

Here are the instructions (iReal book v2.5)
Prepare your playlist in iReal book, in Playlist list, tap on the playlist you have made so the titles of the songs show, Tap on Send button (bottom right), Tap on "To other iPhone/iPod" and address an email address to yourself that you can pick up on your computer.

then on either Mac Editor or Web editor

for Mac Editor v0.5.1
Either make sure Mac editor is not open, or close any open Playlists (otherwise the imported Playlist songs will be added to the current Playlist you have open.)
Click on the Playlist name in your Macs email application and the Mac editor will open with the songs and Playlist in the Playlist drawer.
Rename the Playlist name and press Return.
Click on Playlist to device button.
Email to yourself at an address you pick up on your iPhone/iPod touch.
When the email arrives, Tap on the HTML attachment, then the Playlist name. iReal Book should open with the same songs but different Playlist name.

for Web Editor, currently v1.1
Get your email on your computer, right click (on a Mac*, control-click if necessary) and Copy Link (or Copy Link Location).
Open your web browser and load up our Web editor**, Paste into the Import box and press the Import button.
Just below the Import box is the Playlist name, Rename it. Press Enter (Return.)
In the Email box the original Playlist name should have changed.
Copy the 2 line contents of the Email box to an email to yourself that you can pick up on your iPhone/iPod touch. Tap on the new Playlist name in your email when it arrives. iReal Book should open with the same songs but different Playlist name.

*
Some older Macintosh OS do not run Mac editor. You use the Web editor for editing and preparing charts. Use the right-click button if your mouse has one (and System Preferences are programmed to use it) or Control-click.

[this applies to the versions mentioned. For future versions the procedure could change. If you are having problems, post a query to us in our Support forum. Copying Playlists directly inside iReal Book is planned in a future version, rendering this procedure redundant.]
