Itunes/Apple Music - how to show playlist all the time?

[danieleilertsen]

How can you show your iTunes playlists all the time - even while browsing Apple Music tracks?

Its so much easier to just drag and drop tracks inn a playlist, instead of needing to right click and add to a tracklist.

Would be great to have this same function - just like Spotify. Today Spotify has the playlists showing all the time, if you do not hide them yourself. Its so easy to just drag and drop.

Since iTunes 12.7 you can open playlists in separate windows (right-click on the playlist in the sidebar or on the "..." in the playlist window, then "Open in new window"). And as Julien mentioned, you can also use the sidebar and drag songs there.

Thank you.

Its not possible to to it the way Julien mentioned. This option is not possible when you are in Apple Music. Also, you are not able to do it the way you suggest. I am able to right click etc, but not able to drag and drop. So sad about that.

I am not able to do this. When I am in the Apple Music section this option goes away.

I am using 12.7.1

Sorry, I see what you are asking now. When you are looking at an Apple Music (not downloaded) Playlist in For You or Browse view you no longer have the sidebar. The Sidebar is only available in Library view. Another option is to left click on the ellipse but this is the same as right clicking. Also you download the Playlist and then go to Library view and copy the tracks you want where you want and then delete the Playlist.

Ah, I see what you mean. No dragging when you are browsing in Apple Music. You also cannot select multiple songs to easily add to your library or a playlist, i.e. it's either the whole album/playlist or a single song. I agree, this is a bit limiting and shouldn't be hard to improve.

Thank you so much for the feedback. Its sad that this option is not possible. Its possible in all other streaming services, and should be easy to make.

Its really hard to make a tracklist today. It takes forever
