The BIG Book of iTunes [Free PDF Download]

By Aibek on Mar. 10th, 2009

Last week MakeUseOf released The Idiot’s Ultimate Guide To Building Your Own PC. A week before that there was A Laptop Buying Guide for 2009. And now again MakeUseOf brings you something you won’t find elsewhere on the web. Enter The BIG Book of iTunes. 50+ pages of great iTunes tips and tricks along with illustrative screenshots, written by our very own Mac writer Jackson Chung.

iTunes is a great way to organize and manage your music and video library. It is also the most popular music player/manager around, very visually aesthetic and at the same time, simple to use. Itʼs perfect for handling large libraries containing thousands of songs.

If you are an owner of an iPhone or iPod Touch, thatʼs even more reason to use iTunes. With iTunes, you can easily sync and transfer songs, audiobooks, movies, TV series and mobile applications to your Apple device.

The iTunes book has got plenty of cool iTunes tips and tricks for you, some were published on MakeUseOf before and others were collected from different parts of web. Among other things it illustrates easy ways to

  • automatically organize and tag your music
  • add lyrics & cover art to your songs
  • share your iTunes library with others
  • create ring tones from your songs
  • access your iTunes library from other PCs and mobile devices
  • control iTunes via the iPhone or even using your hands and feet
  • use AppleScripts
  • use iTunes shortcuts

and lots more! Grab yourself a free copy below.

Spread the word!

Great job.

My favorite AppleScript for iTunes is the Evenly-Shuffled playlists, that let’s you easily make “battle of the bands” type of playlists.

Great, I bought Samsung I8910 which has a large 3.7′ screen and it really feels good to read pdf files everywhere any time.

Thanks for the book again. I love Samsung and cell phones.

I’ve always believed that the best flash sites are the ones where I have to right-click just to see if it’s actually flash. Not to decry full-flash sites or anything, but I hate having to skip an intro, or watch some stupid tween that was already long-cheesy when I learned to do it way back in high school with Flash 5, or turn off the music.

That said, as a developer I’ve rarely used it, and I’m intrigued by some of the examples you’ve given. I don’t suppose you have a favorite reference you’d like to tell me about.
