Finding Specific Songs
 
movie buttonpractice button
Just as you search your own music library in iTunes, you can search the iTunes Music Store to find the specific song or artist you’re looking for. And if you can’t remember the exact name of the song you’re looking for, just search with a partial name. You might even find a few different versions of the song performed by different artists or recorded live.
 
If you don’t have a specific song in mind, but just want to see what music is available by your favorite artist, you can browse the store by artist or genre. After you find an artist you enjoy listening to, you can check out the top downloads to see what others like listening to. Chances are, you’ll like it, too!

 
Tips  Step by Step
Look for parental advisory labels
In accordance with the Recording Industry Association of America Parental Advisory Association, you may see the word “Explicit” appear to the right of a song name in the iTunes Music Store. This indicates that a song may contain strong language or adult themes that may not be appropriate for particular audiences. If the word “Clean” appears to the right of a song name, it means the song’s content has been modified so that it does not require the parental advisory label.

Browse the iTunes Music Store for your favorite artist by following these steps:

  1. If it’s not already selected, select Music Store in the Source list.
  2. Click the Browse button to display all the genres of music available.
  3. In the Genre column, use the scroll bar to see what’s available, and then select a style of music.
  4. In the Artist column, use the scroll bar to see what’s available, and then select an artist.
  5. In the Album column, notice which albums are available, and then select an album. Notice the list of songs appear in the lower section of the iTunes window.
  6. Double-click any song in the list to hear a preview.
