Organizing Your Music

Using iTunes, you can organize songs and other items into lists, called playlists, in any

way you want. For example, you can make playlists with songs to listen to while

exercising, or playlists with songs for a particular mood.

You can also make Smart Playlists that update automatically based on rules you

choose. When you add songs to iTunes that match the rules, they automatically get

added to the Smart Playlist.

You can make as many playlists as you like using any of the songs in the iTunes library.

Adding a song to a playlist or later removing it doesn’t remove it from the library.
