Thanks! I will give these a try and see which ends up being easier. Either way, it sounds like I've got a full day's work ahead of me. (smile)

Then VO right arrow over to the music table and interact. Each song has a checkbox. Just find the box and uncheck them manually or, after you interact with the table press command A to select all then bring up the context menu with VO shift M and select uncheck selections. To create a new iTunes library hold down the option key while iTunes is opening. A dialog will ask you to choose or create a new library. Pick create. Then all you have to do is just import only your christmas music. hth Ricardo Walker rwalker...@gmail.com Twitter & Skype: rwalker296 www.mobileaccess.org On Dec 20, 2011, at 3:06 AM, Missy Hoppe wrote: > Thank you very much for your response.

Well, now that I think about it a little more, I don't see why you couldn't make a brand new music library and just put your christmas music in it. Actually, thats probably the best way to go here. > > hth > > Ricardo Walker > rwalker...@gmail.com > Twitter & Skype: rwalker296 > www.mobileaccess.org > > On Dec 19, 2011, at 10:21 PM, Missy Hoppe wrote: > >> Hello, all.
