Use iTunes in the Windows taskbar - how it works

Quickly change the song during work? With iTunes in the Windows taskbar, that's not a problem. We'll show you what you need to consider.

Integrate the iTunes player into the Windows taskbar - this is how you proceed

Once you've fully installed iTunes, you can place a mini player in the system tray:

1. To do this, right-click on an empty space in the Windows taskbar.
2. Then select "iTunes" under "Toolbars".
3. A checkmark now appears in front of the entry (see picture).
4. As soon as you minimize iTunes, a small mini player will appear in your task bar.
5. This allows you to control the current playback or enlarge the player again.

Tip: The mini player only develops its strength with a well-sorted music database. This practical tip shows you how to update your iTunes library.
