The Search box is located at the upper right corner of the music finder window. Select the view you want to use for your search. In the Search box, type the name of the artist, composer, album, or track. As you type, the music finder will display only the entries with matching text. The matching text is displayed in red. Note: Pressing Enter starts play at the top of the list. Clicking the Show All button clears the Search box and any other search criteria in the music finder. This causes the music finder window to display all the music in the selected view. Selecting items in the music finder window You can make single or multiple selections in the music finder window. You can select a single item by clicking on it once. While holding down the shift key you can select a continuous range of entries.
