choose to update only that playlist instead of waiting around for the whole iPod to
sync. (This feature is also handy if you’re a multi-iPod household. Each iPodder can
maintain a separate playlist.)
Once you turn on “Automatically update selected playlists only” (iTunes) or “Se-
lected playlist synchronization” (MusicMatch Jukebox), you’re shown a list of the
playlists you’ve created (see Chapters 4 and 5). Turn on the ones you want synced.
Manually manage songs and playlists
There may be times when you don’t want any automatic synchronization at all.
Maybe, for example, you’ve deleted some audio files from your hard drive that you
still want to keep on your iPod. If you leave automatic syncing turned on, iTunes or
MusicMatch will erase any songs from the iPod that it doesn’t have itself.
• Manual control in iTunes. In iTunes for Mac or PC, turning on “Manually man-
age songs and playlists” means that no music will be auto-copied to the iPod.
You’ll have to do all the copying yourself.
Note: When you turn on this option, iTunes says, “Disabling automatic update requires manually
unmounting the iPod before each disconnect.” It’s telling you that from now on, when you’re finished
working with the iPod, you’ll have to click the Eject button in the lower-right corner of the iTunes window.
This action safely releases the iPod from the computer connection.
From now on, you’ll have to drag songs onto the iPod manually (Figure 2-11).
After you close the iPod Preferences box, click the small triangle next to your
iPod in the Source list. It reveals all the songs and playlists on the iPod, which
work just like any other iTunes playlists (see Chapter 4).

You can add songs to the
iPod playlists by dragging
them out of your main iTunes
Library list, delete them by
clicking their names and then
pressing the Delete key, click
the New Playlist button (the
+ icon) to create a fresh
playlist, drag playlists onto
playlists to merge them, and
so on.
