Playlists are great ways of having selected tracks to play at any given time. For example, you could have a playlist for the car with all your favourite sing along tunes, and other set of tracks for when you go to the gym. These are known as playlists, in a nut shell!
Examples of playlists in iTunes
Not only can you have a selection of songs, but also audiobooks, videos, even podcasts – set to play in a partilar order of your choosing.
Playlists can be created on your PC and when you next plugin your iPod, they will appear under the ‘Playlists’ option on the main menu. It’s so easy!
To make a playlist of your own
- In iTunes choose File > New Playlist > Type a name for the playlist i.e. ‘Gym’ or ‘Drive time’, etc. (the new playlist will appear on the left-hand side menu).
- Go back to your music library by clicking ‘Music’ from the left-hand menu and just simply drop-and-drag tracks to your playlist name on the left.
Tips
- To select multiple items, hold down the Control or Shift key on your keyboard whilst you click – saves time if you want multiple items selected.
- To remove an item from a playlist, select the playlist name on the left-hand menu > select the track in the list shown in the main menu and press the Delete key (this does not remove the item from your library or hard disk).
