Can you make sub-genres?

I think I need a smart playlist, but I don't know, there may be a better way than that, and I don't know how to do what I want with a smart list.
I have a lot of music and its all in a few categories, gospel, rock, country, jazz, & classical for the most part. Gospel is the largest by far, and I want to set it up in sub categories so that if I want to listen to gospel rock, I don't get Bon Jovi in the middle of the play list or when I am listening to P O D and Demon Hunter all the sudden have Mahaliah Jackson start. Is there a way to add sub categories like gospel > southern gospel or gospel > hymns or rock > southern , rock > metal, rock > pop. The reason I don't want to just go in and change the genres on each song (other than it taking 6 months) is some songs I may want in multiple categories and just want to drag them into that list but have the library update for each sub as well.
I hope that was clear, I haven't had any coffee yet.
Oh yeah, I know know if it makes a difference but I am using iTunes 7.6.2 on a 10.3.9 os so I can't upgrade to genius.

You can create any genre you want. Use Get Info and go to the Info tab. In the Genre field, type in whatever you want. You want "southern gospel"? Type it in.
Once you create a new genre, it becomes part of the pull-down menu for future songs, and will stay there as long as you have at least one song in the library using it. Also, it can be used as a criterion in Smart Playlists, so I hope we are pretty close to what you want!

  • Can you make a Video Playlist?

    is there any way to make a Video Playlist?
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    In iTunes, you can only add playlists that show up in the in the list of playlists in the Source window. You can not make sub-entries to the default Videos playlist. If all the entries in a playlist are seen by iTunes as videos, they will appear if you highlight the playlist and click on Videos in the Search bar.
    For the iPod, if a playlist contains only videos, then it will show up under Videos > Video Playlists (I just double-checked this on my own iPod).

  • Can you make a new category in the movie library?

    Can you make a new category in the movies library?  I put my home movies  into the "Home Videos" category.  I put movies into the "Movies" category.  I would like to make a new one.  "Work Videos" .  Is this possible?

    You Cannot make a new Movie Media Kind, they are set by apple to be Movie and Home Video. However under Genre you could create a new Genre and call it whatever you want by typing in the Genre Box in the Get Info , Info page. This will then be available for future selections.
    I am sure there are other ways to achieve what you want with different naming convention - it is up to you but you cannot add another Media Kind like Home Video

  • How can you make one button preform different actions in Xcode?

    How can you make one button "preform a click" and "orderfront"? Is that possible? Because what I am doing is making a welcome window to my application for Mac OS X 10.6, and I have two buttons in that window, one says "Connect" which connects a a WebView to a url and the other button opens up the main window. So how can I a make a button do multiple things at once??

    Ah - If you are just using bindings between various objects from Interface Builder, you can reduce your application code a bit (sometimes quite a bit), but there is only so far you can go. Typically variables and routines are defined in your application that Interface Builder hooks into, so that your application code (usually Objective-C, but can be others) can use these variables and routines to determine what is happening in the user interface.
    I'm not sure how up-to-date the project code is (or what programming code you are familiar with), but you can take a look at Apple's Cocoa Application Tutorial to see what is (usually) involved in creating an application.

  • Do you have to down load from the internet using apple's recover partition, every time you need to do a clean install? or can you make a copy of Mt Lion onto a USB stick and install off that?

    Do you have to down load Mountain Lion from the internet every time you need to do a clean install? or can you make a copy of Mt Lion onto a USB stick and install off that?
    Thanks

    Yes you can make a USB stick of Lion or Mt Lion. Use Lion Disk Maker after you download OS X from the internet.
    For Lion you have to point the download to an external drive and watch when it completes and reboots the system to start the install disconnect the external. If you bought Mt Lion from the Mac App Store then you can download it from there and just cancel the install when it comes up on the desktop.
    If you are downloading from the Recovery HD or from the Online Internet Recovery system, slightly different then the built in Recovery HD, then again you need to point it to an external drive and discoonect that drive when the system reboots to start the real install.
    Then use Lion disk maker to create either a DVD disc or USB thumb of the install files.

  • How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom? Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

    How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom?
    Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

    Add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.<br />
    You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via View > Toolbars > Customize<br />
    You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.<br />

    not natively. edge exports html and javascript files, not video files, or frames.
    however, you could use a third-party program that has a video screenshot function and make one that way.

  • Can you make captions for a slideshow?

    can you make captions for a slideshow? otherwise how can i rename the photo so that i can select view titles in the slideshow and use it as a caption?

    Jim lo:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can't make captions with iPhoto. You can edit the title of a photo by selecting it and then going to the Info window at the bottom of the Source pane, the "i" button, clicking on the title field and enter what text you'd like.
    If you plan on using the slideshow in iDVD then those titles will not show as they will be lost in the "overscan" area that is common to all movies played on TV. You can create the slideshow in iMovie and have lots of control over titles and subtitles and greater control of the audio track, cut, fade in/out, etc.

    Also I cant make a right click on the pad. Is that normal?

    Your first going to have to remove all your personal data off the machine to a external storage drive, do not use TimeMachine when it asks as this will copy the entire drive and is unnecessary at this time (also takes too long).
    You need to drag and drop copy your personal data folders (Music, Pictures, Movies etc) to a external storage drive, once done, unmount and disconnect this drive.
    Most commonly used backup methods
    Next your going to follow the Zero Erase and install method for your OS X version, either 10.6 or 10.7, here
    How to reinstall just OS X or erase/install OS X
    10.7 requires your AppleID and password to install, so make sure to have that ready.
    Once you reboot your into the real setup of OS X, which will require your name etc, so it's now your machine.
    Install your programs, iLife package is only free for the owner of the machine.
    If you have the 10.6 machine specific disks, then it's on there.
    If your using 10.7, then you'll have to purchase it from the App Store.
    Last, return your files from the storage drive, consider setting up a TimeMachine or clone on the external drive.
