To copy songs from iTunes to a USB: Insert the flash drive into a USB port, and open it so it looks like a folder on your desktop.


Then highlight the songs in your iTunes library that you want, as follows:


  • To highlight one song, click it.
  • To highlight a range of songs, click the first, hold Shift, and click the last.
  • To highlight a bunch of selected songs that are not in order, hold the CTRL key and click each one.
  • To highlight all the songs in the view, click one, and then CTRL-A.


Once they are highlighted, simply drag them to the folder.


If you normally run iTunes in full-screen mode, make it smaller before you start this process, so that you will be able to do the drag.


One thing I meant to add: this process copies the songs to the USB. It does not change anything in your iTunes library.
