Thanks Keith, sometimes I have my brain set to the old system and forget
that first letter is a defacto search/go to method in a source list.
I found the podcast I mentioned that did a good job of describing the
basics of creating and populating a playlist in iTunes, but I can't find the
source website. If anyone wants it, email me off list and I'll send it
directly.
Cheers,
Ian

You can just type the first few letters of the name of your play list,
works for me.

First of all, any chance you've recently come to Mac from the Windows
environment? Maybe with Winamp experience? That's what got me and had me
playing the Makarena accidentally at an Irish party. In Winamp you can
select a directory in Windws Explorer then let Winamp play the folder
contents.
In Mac and iTunes things are different. Things are driven by playlists
rather than folders. You seem to be able to play individual songs from a
Finder window, but when the song is over it reverts to the current
playlist in iTunes.
At the top of your source list in iTunes, you have the music source,
classified as a library playlist. Stop interacting with your source list,
VO right arrow to the music table, interact with it, and you've got a
table of all the audio files on your computer no matter what folder they
are in., VO arrow around through the categories, press space bar on your
selection to make it play. If you've made a playlist, VO shift M on a
selection will bring up a context menu with a sub menu for add to
playlist.
Your playlists are down at the bottom of your source list. If anyone
knows how to move them up in the list I'd love to hear about it, so you
don't have to scroll down through everything in your source list to get
to them.
I found a podcast from some organization in Australie that did a job
explaning this stuff. If I can find the link again I'll post it to you.
Cheers,

Hi all,
Grant you I still have not mastered useing itunes, it is not an easy
program, at least for me. I have a folder wkith some 150 songs and I can
not get itunes to play through the list, it will play 5 or so songs
then go back and play the same ones again. I have tried sellecting all
and it still does the same. Somewhere I am missing a setting or
something, can someone tell me how to make it play the complete list.
Kind of dumb on my part but I just have not found the command. Thanks
all. Don
