Drag-and-drop Playlists in iTunes

In true Mac fashion, thereis more than one way to build Playlists in iTunes. One slick way to create new Playlists takes advantage of simple drag-and-drop tactics. Hereis how:

  • Select the songs you want in your new Playlist. If the songs are already grouped together, click the first song to select it, and then Shift-click the last song to select all of the songs between. If the songs arenit grouped together, click the first song to select it, and then Command-click the rest of the songs you want.
  • In iTunes 7, drag your group of songs to the Playlist heading in the source list.

  • Drag your songs to the Playlist heading in iTunes 7.
  • In iTunes 6, drag your group of songs to the title bar at the top of the source list.

  • Drag your songs to the source list heading in iTunes 6.

Your new playlist will be named "untitled," so be sure to rename it to something more descriptive.
