How to Exclude Holiday Music from Your iTunes Genius Playlists

With the holidays coming around, you might have your iTunes playlist packed full of a ton of holiday music, but that doesn't mean you want those holiday tracks sneaking into the rest of your playlists. Macworld shows off how to keep "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" out of the rest of your mixes.

The first thing you need to do is create a holiday playlist by clicking, File > New > Smart Playlist and creating a playlist with the genre tag, "holiday" (if you've already made a mix of all your holiday music you can skip this step). This creates a holiday playlist. Now, simply hold down the Command key, and click the checkbox next to one of the songs. This will uncheck them all, and disable them from appearing in Genius Playlists in the future so your holiday songs won't creep into your other mixes. Head over to Macworld for the full guide.
