Watch constantly. Rock out endlessly. Immerse yourself in music, films and more. It all starts with the iTunes player. Easily browse your entire media collection and organise it however you like. And when you want to hear or watch something, it’s just a click away.
Browse
Everything in one place.
When you download music and video from iTunes, it’s immediately added to your iTunes library. There you can view your media collection any way you like. To find something specific, type the title or artist’s name in the search field and iTunes quickly reveals results as you type. In your library, anything you want to watch or hear is only a click away.
The art of browsing.
You’ll enjoy the album art in your music collection even more in iTunes. Use Cover Flow to flip through your digital music. Grid View lets you browse all your music, films and TV programmes by their cover art. Or search your collection by Album List View. No matter which way you browse, you’ll quickly find exactly what you want to hear and watch.
Organise
Goodbye CDs. Hello digital.
Import your CD collection to iTunes, and listen to your music in new and better ways. Just pop a CD into your computer. If you’re online, iTunes automatically finds the album, artist and song names. You can even choose to download cover art. And just like that, iTunes converts your music to a digital format. So long, CD clutter. Welcome to the digital world.
Make your own soundtrack.
Go digital, and you can do more with your music. Like create perfect music playlists. Just drag songs into a playlist, choose the play order and let it roll. Make one playlist to get a party started. One for the gym. And another for just chilling out.
Home Sharing.
Now entertainment runs in the family. With Home Sharing, you can share music, films, TV programmes and more between computers in your home. Browse iTunes libraries on up to five authorised computers on your home network and import whatever you like. You can also automatically import new purchases made on any of the computers.
Play
iTunes is the world’s greatest entertainment centre. It’s where you go to hear your music, watch films and TV programmes, and listen to a podcast, an audiobook or a lecture on iTunes U. And it’s all just a click away.
iTunes LP.
When you download selected albums, you’ll experience a beautifully designed, interactive world right in your iTunes library on your Mac or PC. While you listen to your favourite songs, dive into the lyrics and liner notes, view photos, watch videos and enjoy other bonus materials. Many are even created by the artists.
iTunes Extras.
Buy selected films and discover iTunes Extras — a world of special features you can experience right in your iTunes library. Watch interviews and trailers, view photos and more on your Mac or PC.
Shuffle your songs.
Whatever happens, happens. That’s the shuffle philosophy. When you don’t know which music you want to listen to, let shuffle take over. The play order is refreshingly random, and you’ll be surprised by what you hear.
Your musical Genius.
Genius Mixes and Genius playlists reacquaint you with music you already own. The Genius Mixes feature searches your iTunes library to find songs that go great together, then organises them into genre-based mixes you’ll love. They’re like channels programmed entirely with your music. Genius automatically creates multiple Genius Mixes — just choose one to match your mood. Customise the name and order of your favourite mixes, and delete the ones you don’t want. You can also create Genius playlists. Say you’re playing a song and want to hear more like it. Select it and click the Genius button. Genius finds songs that match the same vibe and makes a Genius playlist for you. And if you’re looking for music to add to your library, the iTunes Sidebar is the best place to find recommendations while browsing your collection. You can see what music your friends and favourite artists are into with Ping, or get Genius recommendations for new music to download based on the songs you already love. And you can get Genius recommendations for films and TV programmes too.
Remote Control
Tap. Swipe. Play.
Remote is a free, fun and easy-to-use app that turns your iPhone or iPod touch into a remote control. It lets you control the iTunes library on your Mac the same way you play music on your iPhone or iPod touch. Choose a song, shuffle an album, repeat a track or skip to the next one. Album art looks stunning on the vibrant Retina display. And if your Mac is sleeping, Remote wakes it up so you can access all your music. So wherever you are in your house, you can control the music in the iTunes library on your computer and your Apple TV with a tap or flick of a finger.
