Smart Playlist JUST for 'Free Songs of the Week?'

I would like to create a Smart playlist comprising exclusively the 'Free Songs of the Week' from the iTunes Store. So when I get the weekly 'Free Song,' it goes right into that list. But I need some sort of 'unique identifier' that allows this to happen, and I can't seem to find one. I go under all the 'View Options' and nothing seems to 'tag' these songs as unique, so I can't set up a Smart Playlist that includes just those songs.
Is there a way to do this?

The iTunes Store doesn't tag the free tracks any differently from any other track that I can see, so I can think of no automatic way to put just the free tracks into a playlist. You could, though, put "free" or something similar in the Comments section when you download one of the free items, and then have a Smart Playlist that looked for "free" in the Comments. That's the only way I can think of to accomplish what you want. That wouldn't be any easier than just dragging the free tracks to a normal playlist, but would allow you to have future Smart Playlists that process the free tracks.
Hope this helps.

  • I deleted the Free song of the week, but it keeps coming back!

    I downloaded a free song, decided I didn't want it and deleted. But with iCloud, it keeps coming back. It messes with my smart playlists to have this song keep popping up. Any way to fix without turning off auto downloads? Thanks

    You must have an iCloud account, and on the iPhone gone to Settings > iCloud and turned ON Find My Phone.  Then login to the iCloud account, click Find My Phone and IF the iPhone is turned on and connected to the internet it will show up.
    If any one of those steps is missing it will not show up.
    If you get a message that you have not registered it with iCloud, then you did not turn on Find My Phone on the iPhone.
    There is no other way of trackng the device.

  • ITunes Latino Free Song of the Week???

    Hi there! Just wondering if iTunes is no longer offering a iTunes Latino song of the week... Just got my iPod for Christmas and was really enjoying them since then until today when I see the same free song in iTunes and iTunes Latino...
    Think it'd only be fair to put a song in Spanish on iTunes Latino...
    Thanks!!

  • Can the free songs of the week be found on the wifi store?

    I am having trouble finding the free songs through the wifi store. Are they not directly available on the touch?

    It's not featured or anything like in iTunes, but you can find the free song by searching for it.

  • Where did the free song of the week option go?

    The free song option went away with the new year. Has it moved or is it gone?

    Probably gone, although Apple doesn't tend to explain to anyone what they're doing at any given moment, so who knows.

  • Can't download the free song of the week

    Thanks

  • How do we get the song of the week free?

    I've heard that on Itunes you get the song of the week free. If this is true, how do I redeem this song?

    A free Song of the Week is also available in the UK, Canadian, and French iTMS. There could be others as well (I haven't taken the time to check them all), but present not all iTunes Music Stores have free tracks (presumably because Apple has as yet been unable to make appropriate arrangements with the record companies in those countries).
    Linda, you do need to have a valid account in one of the iTMS that does offer the free tracks. To create such an account (if you don't have one already), you'll need a credit card with a billing address in that country or a gift certificate or prepaid card purchased in that country and a mailing address in the country.

  • Song of the week

    Hi! Itunes is very new to me. Would it be possible for someone to explain to me how long the "song of the week" is posted for.

    The free "song of the week" is posted for one week. Tuesday is when new music is posted in the store including the "song of the week", the freebie will be replaced with another "song of the week" on the following Tuesday.

  • What happened to free single of the week?

    This week the button for free single of the week does not appear on my iTunes store home page. Where did it go?

    They don't have a section for free tracks as of today, so if the Canadian iTunes Store did at one time, then apparently they've ceased to offer them at least temporarily. It may be that they just couldn't negotiate anything with a record label for this week and with luck there will be a new free track in the future. We have no way of knowing. though.

  • Did they take out the free section, you know where they might offer a free episode/song/video/etc in one spot (or at least did they for Canada)? I can find the english song of the week, but that is it...

    Nevermind. For some reason it loaded wrong/poorly/? It was back after I closed itunes down and re-opened it.
    Thanks though

  • I smashed the screen of my iphone 5 earlier and it was bought just before christmas, i was wondering will apple repair the screen for free or swap the phone?

    i smashed the screen of my iphone 5 earlier and it was bought just before christmas, i was wondering will apple repair the screen for free or swap the phone? the phone is still working fine, just the screen needs changing by the looks of it.

    Why would Apple replace or repair the phone for free? Will a car manufacturer replace or repair the car you drove into a wall for free? If you sit on your spectacles, will the optician give you another pair for free?
    You can get an out of warranty replacement phone for $199 in the US, similar price in your local currency.

  • Submitting songs to iTunes free single of the week?

    Hey,
    I already have some of my songs on iTunes. I was wondering how songs became free singles of the week? Do I submit them? Does Apple choose randomly?
    Thanks
    Liam T

    Hi Carl,
    No, this is not possible as far as I know. There is, however a special playlist that Apple maintains and usually keeps it up to date with everything that is currently free. You can access this playlist from the main iTunes store screen (scroll down to the bottom), or just click this link and it will take you right there.
    Hope this helps,
