On one of my playlists, I want to move multiple songs to another playlist. Its kind of a pain to drag them one by one to that new playlist.... Could anyone tell me how to select multiple tracks?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂
Just hold down the ctrl key on your keyboard whilst selecting multiple tracks and then drag and drop them to where ever you like. If you want to select a big block of tracks, select the top one then hold the shift key and click on the last one, it will highlight all the tracks between the two you selected.

I have tried CTRL and SHIFT to select multiple and block and it does not work? I only have a basic account!!!
You're using the desktop client? You can't do this in the web player.
i just figured it out !!!! (:
ALL you have to do is simply hold down the ctrl + shift at the SAME time then simply select one of the songs on the playlist and then the entire playlists highlights (turns baby blue)
there you go !!(:
yayyyy!
HUGELY helpful, thank you!
this is magical,
did this accidentally a few times and deleted some starred stuff from ages ago 😞 but now i can use this to fix playlist!!!!!!!!!! you rock
Select multiple songs using Shift, right click, add them to a new playlist.
None of these work for me... (on mac, in firefox)
The best thing to do (if you have a Mac) is to go to the menu bar on your computer (with Spotify the open application). Also, make sure you are on the playlist with the songs your wanting to highlight. Then, go to the menu bar, press EDIT, and scroll till you find SELECT ALL. Press that and there you go! This has been the only method that's worked for me when trying to highlight an entire playlist. Hope it works for anyone else who had the same problem!
On a mac you can click command A and then hit the three little dots and move to the playlist that you want.
THANK YOU FINALLY **bleep** I LOVE YOU
i swear to whoever you all must be using some other software. makles me wonder if you actually used the software or your just saying how you would like to do it!!!! while all these "solutions" sound nice THEY JUST DONT WORK on my spotify web player. i would like to see some screenshots because i just dont beleive it....
If you scanned the thread you would have noticed the 4th post which says this doesn't work in the web player.

I have done it before but I believe you can only select like 50. Any more than that, and it ignores it. So it is a painful process.
Hey, good afternoon,

Thanks!
