• Delete the whole playlist. To delete an entire playlist, click it in the
Source list and press Delete (Backspace). Again, this zaps only the playlist
itself, not all the stored songs you had in it. (Those are still in your computer’s
iTunes folder.)
If you want to see how many playlists a certain song appears on, Ctrl-click (Mac) or
right-click (Mac or PC) the track’s name; from the shortcut menu, choose “Show in
Playlist.”
Authorizing Computers
When you create an account in iTunes (a
requirement for having an iPhone), you
automatically authorize that computer
to play purchases from the iTunes Store.
Authorization is Apple’s way of making sure
you don’t go playing those music tracks on
more than five computers, which would
greatly displease the record companies.
You can copy your purchases onto a maximum
of four other computers. To authorize
each one to play music from your account,
choose StoreÆAuthorize Computer. (Don’t worry; you just have to do this
once per machine.)
When you’ve maxed out your limit and can’t authorize any more computers,
you may need to deauthorize one. On the computer you wish to demote,
choose StoreÆDeauthorize Computer.
Not all songs you buy from iTunes are copy-protected. The ones labeled as iTunes
Plus songs ave slightly higher audio quality—and they’re not copy-protected. You
can play them on any player that recognizes AAC files.
Then again, you can’t go nuts, uploading them all over the Internet. Your name
and email address are embedded in the file and quite visible to anyone (including
any Apple lawyer) who chooses the track, chooses FileÆGet Info, and clicks the
Summary tab.
