How to Select Multiple Songs in iTunes
Method 1 of 3:
Selecting Consecutive Songs
- Click the first song of the group you want. Your selection should turn blue.
- Hold down ⇧ Shift. The ⇧ Shift key allows you to select a group of consecutive files, so that you don't have to click each one individually.
- Click the last song of the group you want. Make sure that you're still holding down ⇧ Shift when you click on the last song. The entire group, from first song to last, should be highlighted in blue.
Method 2 of 3:
Selecting Non-Consecutive Songs
- Click the first song you want. Your selection should turn blue.
- Hold down Ctrl (PC) or ⌘ Command (Mac). This key should be located right next to your Spacebar. Either one will work.
- Click on the next song you want. Make sure that you are still holding down Ctrl or ⌘ Command. Don't let go of it until you're done selecting all the songs you want.
- Continue clicking other songs. You can scroll up or down within iTunes to find other songs without losing your selection.
- You can let go of Ctrl or ⌘ Command without losing your selection. Just make sure you press down on it again before clicking another song. Otherwise, you'll lose the whole lot.
- If you tend to have trouble with this process, it's probably safer to just keep holding down Ctrl or ⌘ Command.
Method 3 of 3:
Searching for Songs You Wish to Select
- Click on the search bar in the upper-right corner of iTunes. The search box is solid white.
- Type in the term you wish to search. You can search for artists, track titles, albums, or genres.
- Click your first selection. It will be highlighted in blue.
- Hold down Ctrl (PC) or ⌘ Command (Mac). Doing so will allow you to make multiple selections.
- If you're selecting a consecutive group, hold down ⇧ Shift instead.
- Click the next song you want to select. Make sure you're still holding down one of the keys listed above to select multiple songs.
