How to Browse Your iPod’s Music?

Choosing music with playlists is great, and you might often find that method to be the one you end up using most because it gets you to specific music quickly. However, some music stored on your iPod might not be in a playlist, you might want to listen to all the music by a specific artist, and so on. In these cases, you can browse the music stored on your iPod to choose the music to which you want to listen.

You can browse your music by the following categories:
■ Artists
■ Albums
■ Songs
■ Genres
■ Composers
To browse your iPod’s music, do the following steps:

1. Choose Main menu, Browse. You’ll see the Browse menu, which contains the categories listed previously.
2. Highlight the category by which you want to browse your music, such as Artists to browse by artist, and press the Select button. You will see the menu that shows you all the music that is associated with the category you selected in step 1. For example, if you choose Artists, you will see all the artists whose music is stored on your iPod
3. Browse the resulting list of music that appears until you find a category in which you are interested; then press the Select button. You will see the list of contents of the category you selected. For example, when I was browsing by artist and chose B.B. King, the list of my B.B. King music was displayed.
4. To move down to the next level of detail, select an item on the current list and click the Select button. The resulting screen will show you the contents of what you selected. For example, I selected the B.B. King album called “Spotlight on Lucille” and saw that album’s contents.
5. To play everything shown on the screen, starting at the top, press the Play/Pause button. To start with a specific song, select it and press the Play/Pause button. The Now Playing screen will appear, and the first song or the song you selected will start to play.Although the previous steps used the Artists category as an example, you can browse and select music in any of the other categories in just the same way.
