Can you create playlists?

You can make playlists on windows media player and transfer them or you can hold one "go-list" which is basically a playlist made away from a computer.

Yes, you can! I download audio books from the library using the Overdrive platform and it recognizes the player. It actually works really well for books (but not for playlists).

While I have not used this feature, I think that you can make your own playlists. You would use iTunes to create the playlists I believe. But, my adult children have many playlists so it must be possible.

You can have it organized into folders, or just a long list. You can put songs into playlist for quick play. (That's what I suggest)

No, you can't make playlists on this device. That was the only reason why I didn't get it. I've owned two other COWON Mp3 players and was very happy with them, but I need to make playlists AND I need 160 GB of storage. That leaves only one other choice and I had to reluctantly purchase the iPod Classic with its 160 GB hard drive. Though there were some compromises compared to the COWON (EQ in the iPod isn't as extensive and there's no A-B section repeat switch), I'm happy with the iPod. Good luck on your purchase.

Patricia I created mine on my desktop and then moved it to the player in the playlist folder. I believe with the software from Sony you can create one by dragging music to it and then over to the player. Hope that helps!

No idea. I am still trying to figure out how to get some playlists on this thing.

I'm sorry, I just read the other responses. I thought you were referring to the capability to 'shuffle the songs.' I haven't tried it but don't see why not. It worked for my playlists. Unfortunately I have it in my classroom and wont be able to try it until Monday, August 5, 2013.

Not sure about how well it manages them under the native interface, but if you install Rockbox is manages them just fine, and you can easily create playlists that use songs from either the internal or external drive, songs in different folders.

Yes David, you can. You can also make it so only certain playlists go to each ipod. I sync 3 different ipods form my itunes, all have different songs.
