into itunes.

files and iTunes
I can deffinately say that using playlists to sync music to your iPhone is
an awesome feature! This is the only way that I use to get music and
audiobooks onto my phone. It's such a time-saver, too.
Thanks,

Sandy, glad all your music is now there. The main benefit I find for
playlists is to restrict which music I sync to my iPhone through iTunes.
I've got too much music to sync all of it and iTunes allows you to specify
which playlists to sync.
Some will say that the native iTunes AAC file format sounds better and takes
less space than mp3 but that's a personal preference issue and really only
applies when the songs are first being ripped. If you take a music file that
has already been compressed to an mp3 file format and then convert it to
another compressed format, you will suffer some loss in quality. I'm not
sure I'd be able to hear it but unless your mp3 files aren't working for
you, I wouldn't go to the trouble of converting them to something else.

Ok, now I have added the music through the Add Folders to Library feature;
they’re all there. Now what is it I’m doing with a play list? I don’t get
that part.
Is there any virtue in converting the music from MP3 to some other file
extension? Thanks a lot.

Sandy, I know at least one other person has already posted a reply but I'm
curious what actual steps you took when you copied the mp3 files into your
library. Did you do this through iTunes using the File, Add File to Library
or File, Add Folder to Library menu options? My understanding is that music
on your computer that you want to sync with your iDevice must be in your
iTunes library and must reside in the folder structure you've identified to
iTunes in its Edit, Preferences options. After you ensure that is the case,
using playlists to control what content is synced is the way I handle music
transfers.

I have some mp3 files that were given to me and I want to play them on my
phone. I have copied them into my music library. I have a couple of
questions.
All of the music is by one artist; it is all in one folder in the same
manner as the rest of the music files. And when I open an album file I see
the individuall tracks, eachof which has an MP3 extension. . On my phone I
see the artist but I don’t see all of the music. Some of the albums don’t
show up at all. I right clicked on the individual song titles thinking I’d
find a place to convert the file from MP3 but it’s not there.
Is there a way to do what I want to do? Thanks.
Sandy
