Create Smart Playlists in iTunes
July 22nd, 2009 by Donald BellTo really be a Jedi-level iTunes guru, you must master the art of the Smart Playlist. The most enlightened of all the playlists (don't let Genius Playlists fool you), Smart Playlists can be used to quickly create genre playlists, sort out your least favourite tracks or keep your kid's insipid music from infecting your iPhone.
To help you on your way toward total playlist domination, we've put together a little video and a slideshow (below) to get the ball rolling. If you've got a favourite Smart Playlist tip to share, please be kind enough to drop it in the comments section.
Apple's iTunes music software offers three kinds of playlists: standard, Smart and Genius. You can make standard playlists by just dragging and dropping songs from your library, and Genius playlists are made with a single click. Really, the only kind of iTunes playlist where brain cells come in handy are Smart Playlists.
So what exactly is a Smart Playlist? Basically, it's a set of instructions that creates a constantly evolving playlist of music.
iTunes comes preloaded with a few examples you can find in the playlist menu, such as Recently Added, My Top Rated and Recently Played. You can tell them apart from other playlists because of their purple-ish colour and the little cog wheel icon in the center.

I bought to av cable and my ipod classic plays movies on my tv but not my iPod touch! the videos play for like one second and then backs out to the videos menu. Do i really have to buy the cable directly from Apple? How am I having problems with the newer ipod rather than this old 5th generation ipod! Suggestions anyone?

I still don't understand the usefulness of Genius Playlists but I have to recognize that this article perfectly answers to the questions I was asking myself about playlists. Thanks !
