Hi tom. It works brilliantly. I thought I might make a playlist from selection by selecting a folder in explorer and doing shift-control-n in itunes but that didn’t work but your instructions work just fine. Thanks.

Second, I go to the folder or files in Windows explorer and copy the folders or songs that I want in that playlist. Third, I alt tab back to the playlist in iTunes, and paste it. Now a few things. In iTunes, there is a box that reads “read only” with Jaws, just before the thing that says click add to playlist. This is where you want to paste. Let me know how it goes, Thom From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Larry Lumpkin Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2014 8:39 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: importing music into an itunes play list Hi Tom.

In an earlier post you mentioned mp3tag. Is this program free or what is its cost? I'm assuming it's accessible, smile.

Is this where I was going wrong the other week, Tom? I simply selected the tracks in Itunes, chose the Add to Playlist option from the context menu, and sometimes it seemed to work and other times it didn't. That seemed the likely method to use to me. Was I in fact trying to copy a shortcut in ITunes and not the file itself?

Then,Go to the folder in Windows on your PC and control C to copy either the folder, or selected files that you want in that playlist. Now in iTunes, Make sure that playlist is in view, and if you tab through, you should (in iTunes 12), hear add to playlist button, tab again and you should hear that the playlist has zero items, another tab should just say read only. This is where you want to paste. . There should be something that says something like, click the add to playlist. If you get there you are one tab too far. iTunes may be unresponsive for a while if there are a bunch of songs. If it is not unresponsive, it didn’t paste. If it is, just be patient and your files will be in that playlist, and be added to the main iTunes library. Hope this helped, Thom From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Larry Lumpkin Sent: Saturday, November 22, 2014 8:32 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: importing music into an itunes play list Hi tom. The music is in other folders outside of itunes and I would like to import it directly into a play list. I know I can import the music into itunes but then it ets all mixed int with all the great amount of music I have in itunes and is very hard to find again.
