The other day I wanted to drag a new song I\u2019d purchased on Apple music into one of my playlists. However, there seemed to be no intuitive  way to have two Apple Music windows open to do this, though it\u2019s actually a simple process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some background<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2019, macOS Catalina replaced the all-encompassing iTunes app\/service with Apple Music, Apple Podcasts, and Apple TV apps. Overall, that was a good move, though the move did make some things more complicated \u2014 such as how to open a music playlist in a new window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Changes in iTunes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Starting with macOS Catalina and following, Music app offers users access to their entire music library, whether they downloaded the songs, purchased them or ripped them from a CD. For those who like to own their music, the iTunes Music Store is still around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Apple TV app features Apple TV channels, personalized recommendations and over 100,000 iTunes movies and TV shows to browse, buy or rent \u2014 so users can enjoy 4K HDR and Dolby Atmos-supported movies. The Watch Now section features Up Next, where viewers can keep track of what they are currently watching and resume on any screen. This fall, Apple TV+, Apple\u2019s original video subscription service, will be available in the Apple TV app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Apple Podcasts app offers more than 700,000 shows in its catalog and the option to automatically be notified of new episodes as soon as they become available. The app also features new categories, curated collections by editors around the world and advanced search tools that can find episodes by host, guest or even discussion topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With macOS Catalina and later, your music library is also built right into the Music app. You can easily see recently added songs, or you can view your entire collection by artist, album, or song. You can even change the sorting method of your collection based.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to open a new music playlist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Though it\u2019s a \u201chidden\u201d feature, it\u2019s easy to open a playlist in a new window. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0 Launch Apple Music<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Apple
Apple Music<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u00b0 Control-click or right-click on the playlist you want to open and select Open in New Window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Control-click Playlist<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Voila! That’s it. The playlist opens in a new window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
