Music & Iphone

Is there a tutorial? Can you drag and drop songs into your iphone? I don't seem to be able to anymore. Can someone point to somewhere you can learn actually how to use this system? I've had it for 10 years and it has worked fine, but now they've split the apps nothing works. The 'sync settings' (which now opens in finder???) don't have a 'songs' column. I see 'Artists', 'Albums', 'Genres' and 'playlists'. Do ineed to create a separate 'playlist' to put songs and then sync that?? Aaaaaaand deleting songs that are all still there on my phone? ARGGH So many questions for an under explained and possibly broken system.

Ok dragging the second playlist into the iphone icon on the 'music' app worked. How do i now delete those songs that are now in the phone? I can seem to be able to do it on the phone itself. Note - when you try to delete an 'album' on your phone - it seems to still split them into individual songs. Deleting a song directly from 'Album' will only delete the song - and not the entire album.

OK so after 'unsyncing' the playlist on the finder iphone app - the songs are all STILL THERE ON THE IPHONE.


Incredible how this system is so broken. If you designed this system, present yourself and explain it please. It's a shocker.


And Unexplained. Do I need to delete every individual song? Do I need to re-sync it with the same playlist but after deleting all the songs in the playlist?
