With millions upon millions of people using the iTunes software these days, it is amazing to know that almost all of them are not using it to its full potential. There are so many free iTunes tips available online, but people do not seem to be interested in all of the different tools that are available. Anyone who uses the software knows that Apple is constantly updating iTunes. While some people relish these new updates and upgrades, most miss out on the great new features added to iTunes. There are many new features to iTunes that make it a significantly better program.

iTunes can help you out quite a bit when you are trying to make your music files more organized. In order to get all of the files that are related to each other together, just use the "organize files" feature located within your library. After you have found the files, you can bring them into iTunes by using the "advanced" features within the tab. You can then use the copy option to bring all of the files into your iTunes media folder. This is a great way to backup all of you files so that you do not lose them. Not all people like having everything backed up on their computer, but if you are interested in doing this, iTunes is great for it.

When using the iTunes software, you can organize everything that you have on your computer a few different ways. Your preference is key in the way that you organize things on your computer. There are many people that will sort all of their songs by the genre that they are. There are also those who sort things by the artist so that they can easily find all of that particular person or band's work very quickly using iTunes. Another cool way to sort your digital music files out is by creating playlists that you enjoy. A playlist is a group of songs that you have selected because of a specific preference that you had to them and put them all in one folder.

If you have decided that you want to make a playlist, all you need to do is name the playlist folder and drag your music files into that specific folder. It is also possible to burn the songs that you have included in your iTunes playlist onto a CD. Burning these songs onto compact discs using iTunes has advantages because you can then listen to them anywhere that you have a CD player.

Today, there are special radio stations that have online broadcasting that is set up for use with the iTunes software. No matter where you are or what time it is you can now access radio programming using the iTunes podcast functions. You can select whatever station you want to listen to from the list located in the "radio" section of the iTunes market.
