Create Playlist With iTunes
Open iTunes on your desktop computer. Now, click on “File” to open a menu of options. Choose “Add New Playlist” to create an untitled playlist. This will appear at the bottom of your list of playlists. Type in a name for your playlist. Pick something short yet descriptive for the playlist name, as this will help you organize your music on your iPod. Open “Music” under the “Library.” Drag the titles of songs from the “Library” to the playlist you want to create. Repeat this step until you have added all of the music that you want in the playlist.
