Syncing specific folder between Itunes and Iphone

Hello.


1: My G:\ drive has my music folder which contains subfolders some with sorted files and others with unsorted files.


2: I want to sync some of those folders to my new (and first) IPhone


3: How do I that that when Itunes doesn't offer a folder option?


Thanks

Windows, Windows 10

You can sync your entire music library if there is room for it, or you use playlists, smart or regular, to narrow down the selection. You can drag a folder from Explorer to a playlist to add all the tracks in that folder to the list, but as a rule iTunes isn't interested in exactly where things are stored on the device. What matters is metadata which groups tracks into albums, and any playlists you create.
