• To play a station, move the pointer over the station and click .

• To skip to the next song, click near the top-left of the iTunes window.

  Note:  You can skip a limited number of songs in an hour. The limit can vary based on a number of factors.

You can create stations anywhere in iTunes you can play a song. You create a station by choosing an artist, song, or genre; you can customize the station over time.

To create a station:

• In iTunes Radio: Click next to My Stations, and do one of the following:

  • Type an artist, song, or genre, press Return, then double-click a search result.

  • Click a genre, then move the pointer over one of the options and click Add.

• Elsewhere in iTunes: Click next to a song, and choose “New Station from Song” or “New Station from Artist” from the pop-up menu.

iTunes names the station after the artist, song, or genre you chose, but you can rename a station by clicking its title.

iTunes Radio might not play the specific song or artist you use to create a station, but you can provide examples of songs and artists you’d like to hear. You can also request that certain songs or artists never be played.

Here are ways to customize your stations:

• Request or reject specific artists, songs, or genres (on the selected station only):

  • While a song is playing, click near the top-left of the iTunes window, and choose Play More Like This or Never Play This Song from the pop-up menu.

  • Click a station to display its contents, and click below “Play more like this” or “Never play this.” Type an artist, song, or genre, press Return, then double-click a search result.

• Adjust the balance between new and familiar songs (on the selected station only): Click a station to display its contents, and click Hits (familiar), Variety (mixed), or Discovery (new).

• Allow or disallow explicit content (on all stations): Click On or Off next to Allow Explicit (above My Stations).

While a song is playing, you can buy it or add it to your Wish List. You can also buy previously played songs, including songs played in iTunes Radio on any of your computers or iOS devices.

Do any of the following:

• Buy the current song: Click the price near the top-center of the iTunes window.

• Add the current song to your Wish List: Click near the top-left of the iTunes window, and choose Add to iTunes Wish List from the pop-up menu.

• Buy a previously played song: Do one of the following:

  • Click the station that played the song to display the station’s contents, move the pointer over the song (below History), and click the price.

  • Click near the top-center of the iTunes window, move the pointer over the song, and click the price.
