Lastnight my computer crashed&#8230; and after I restarted and opened up iTunes again it was doing this whole weird resorting thing. And so I was like &#8220;wha?&#8221; and impatient me cancelled whatever (at the time insignificant and unnecessary task that was prolonging me to getting to PLAYING some tunes) task iTunes was trying to perform. And wouldn&#8217;t ya know it after finally opening it back up again&#8230; ALL my playlists were GONE. <\/p>\n<p>hahahhahahhahahhaaahahahahhaaaaaa!!!! <\/p>\n<p>Alright, so no biggie. But actually something cool, is in the meantime, my friend Mike (<a href=\"http:\/\/gigwidth.sketchypad.com\/\">designer<\/a> and operator of <a href=\"http:\/\/sketchypad.com\">SketchyPadSF<\/a>) emailed me to give me some tips of his own. And it came just in time! <\/p>\n<p>So, ladies &#038; gentleman &#8211; here we have Round 2 of &#8220;If you&#8217;re music library is bigger than your iPod&#8221;!! (crowd goes wild) <\/p>\n<p>Mike&#8217;s method, and I&#8217;m sure many others and now MINE for the time being &#8211; is to simply use the &#8220;only update checked songs&#8221; method. aaaahHA! <\/p>\n<p>At first I didn&#8217;t see why this would be the way to go, but it is pretty cool to see what music is\/isn&#8217;t on your playlist just by seeing the check next to it. However, I did decide to take it a step further and make some other playlists that utilize scanning for what&#8217;s checked &#038; what&#8217;s not checked &#038; the newest of each, etc. Cuz I like that! <\/p>\n<p>So here you go&#8230; this time, the &#8220;tip\/tutorial&#8221; is in one page of screenshots &#038; notes. Check it out: <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\"><a href=\"\/images\/blogimages\/2ndway.html\">If your music library is bigger than your iPod &#8211; (Round 2)<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Very cool way to do it, actually.
