Adding more information to your iTunes library

After you import your music into iTunes, you can add more song and album information to your iTunes library. Most of these additional information appears on iPod classic when you add the songs.

Enter song names and other information

If you don’t have an Internet connection, if song information isn’t available for music you import, or if you want to include additional information (such as composer names), you can enter

the information manually. To learn how to enter song information, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.

Add lyrics

You can enter song lyrics in plain text format into iTunes so that you can view the song lyrics on iPod classic while the song is playing. To learn how to enter lyrics, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.

For more information, see Viewing lyrics on iPod classic on page 26.

Add album artwork

Music you purchase from the iTunes Store includes album artwork, which iPod classic can display. You can add album artwork automatically for music you’ve imported from CDs, if the CDs are available from the iTunes Store. You can add album artwork manually if you have the album

art on your computer. To learn more about adding album artwork, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.

For more information, see Viewing album artwork on iPod classic on page 26.

Organizing your music

In iTunes, you can organize songs and other items into lists, called playlists, in any way you want. For example, you can create playlists with songs to listen to while exercising, or playlists with songs for a particular mood.

You can create Smart Playlists that update automatically based on rules you define. When you add songs to iTunes that match the rules, they automatically get added to the Smart Playlist.

You can turn on Genius in iTunes and create playlists of songs that go great together. Genius can also organize your music library automatically by sorting and grouping it into collections called Genius Mixes.

You can create as many playlists as you like, using any of the songs in your iTunes library. Adding a song to a playlist or later removing it doesn’t remove it from your library.

To learn how to set up playlists in iTunes, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.

Note: To create playlists on iPod classic when iPod classic isn’t connected to your computer, see Creating On-The-Go Playlists on iPod classic on page 28.

Turning on Genius in iTunes

Genius finds songs in your library that go great together in order to create Genius playlists and Genius Mixes.

A Genius playlist starts with a song that you select. iTunes then compiles a Genius playlist of songs that go great with the one you selected.
