I have the latest itunes software on my win7 pc and many playlists with the musical note next to them. I knew how to get songs onto playlists in older versions but none of the add to methods work for me now. Advice please. Thanks.

Hello, ebony ivory.
Here are the steps on how to manage and create playlists in iTunes 11.
Create a playlist
- Choose File > New > Playlist.
- Type a name for the playlist.
- To add items, drag them to the playlist on the right side of the iTunes window.
- When you’re finished adding items, click Done.
Edit a playlistSelect the playlist and do any of the following:
- Add items: Drag an item into a playlist or Control-click (right click) an item. Select "Add to Playlist," and then select the playlist.
Note: To quickly add an item to a playlist:
- Start dragging the item (or items) you want to add. A pane with a list of playlists appears on the right. (Note that this method is disabled if the Sidebar is in use).
- Drag the item to a playlist in the list.
- Change the order of songs: Drag the songs into the order you want. If you can’t drag a song, click the column heading above the numbers.
- Remove an item: Select the item and press the Delete key (this does not remove the item from your library or hard disk).
