    I would like to actually see how many times I listened to a song rather than just see it in my top 25

  3. Thanatos son of Nyx says:

    I think I may have deleted that playlist years ago without realising that I might want it lol. Do you know about any way to get it back?

  4. C says:

    I don’t get those playlists (Recently Played, Top 25…). I have Recently Played in iTunes on my mac, but not the Top 25. I don’t have either one on my iPhone, just playlists I’ve added or made myself.

      You can build the Top 25 Playlist on your Mac:
      • create a new intelligent playlist (option-cmd-N)
      • disable the first checkmark
      • enable checkmark for max 25 objects and sort for most played

      If you have other stuff in your library, like podcasts, audiobooks, etc, that you want to exclude, keep the first checkmark, switch “artist” to “kind” and select “music”.
