Q: Latest iTunes -unticked text in playlist  can I make it darker?

In latest iTunes -unticked text in playlist is too light for my old eyes, can I make it as dark as the old version? My old playlists are unaffected. Is there a workaround modifying an old list?

    I'm not sure what "-unticked text in playlist" means...  However, there are several different views available for playlists.  You can switch between them from the menu bar.  Select playlist in the sidebar, and then from menu bar

     

    View -> View As -> [select view]

     

    the two "list" views are Playlist and Songs.  When you create a new playlist, the Playlist view is used by default, but you can change it to the Songs view (if that's the one you like better).

     

    Also, in iTunes preferences General tab, there are three different choices for the List Size setting, which changes text size and spacing.  Try setting it to Large, if it's not already.

    Well done! Your answer was exactly what I needed. "Playlist" shows text in light grey, whereas "Songs" display the text in black which is much easier to read in the Community Radio studio where I play my playlist. Thanks from WOWTRUBLU.
