Apple Music delete multiple playlists
How do I select multiple playlists and delete them instead of right clicking? I uploaded empty libraries and now I have too many playlists.

Hello GoneGaming
It sounds like you want to select multiple playlists at once to delete in Apple Music.
Here's a resource on this topic. See Select items on your Mac screen. You can select multiple playlists by holding down the Shift key or Command key depending on what you are trying to select, then continuing with right clicking to delete.
Hope this information helps.
Have a good day.

GoneGaming,
Thanks for the reply. If you are doing this from the side bar, that is expected behavior. Select All Playlists on the side bar and select the desired playlists you want to delete in the main while holding down Control button. A menu will come up with the option to Delete From Library.
Cheers.
GoneGaming,
Thanks for the update. If this doesn't work, you can try to create a Playlist Folder, File > New > Playlist Folder as seen in Organize playlists in folders in Music on Mac, move all of the playlists you want to delete in this folder, then delete the folder.
To delete music, you would follow Delete songs and other items in Music on Mac and have to individually Add and download music from Apple Music for for iTunes purchases Redownload music. Note: If the music did not come from Apple Music or was not purchased with your current Apple ID, you will need the original source of the music to redownload.
Hope this helps.
The shift key doesn't work when you're in the Apple Music App.
I am attempting to select them all to no avail. I have to do it manually. This poses an issue when one redownloads their library.
I can't select multiple playlists in the main view either. I guess an alternative would be to delete all music data and reinstate the playlists from library save. Know how to do that?
Thanks for the response! At least that's a faster way to get rid of playlists than having to right-click delete them manually.
