Hey Jacob, under “My Account” there’s a “My Favorites” where you can create folders of the different lessons that interest you.
Example- last Friday’s lesson is a country lesson, so go to the lesson, scroll down to “Add to My Favorites” (on the right side just below the jam tracks), click on the down arrow in the window that says “default Collection”. Type in “Country”=, then click “New Collection”.
When you go to the “My Favorites” you’ll see your Country folder you created there.
I’ve got 16 folders right now (Microlessons, Fingerstyle, Artist, Acoustic Blues to name a few) that I use to quickly access the lessons I’ve organized.
Hope this helped

Jacob,
I have a folder system on my PC into which I place tabs and backing tracks for any AM lesson that I want to work on. I don’t bother with the part one video. When I actually get to practicing the lesson, I work from the printed tab, which I find easier than using a computer screen. I keep the printed tabs in an Active Melody folder.

I do all of the above, and more.
First of all, I like to use an old fashioned music stand to hold my tabs, so that I can sit up and hold my guitar properly. I tried just putting my iPad on that, but the font is too small to read from that distance on an iPad. That meant I had to actually download the tabs, put them into a folder, and print out the tabs. So now I have a huge collection of printed tabs, and that meant I had to buy a 3-ring notebook to store them.
I like to have all the lesson MP3s downloaded on my computer AND my iPad, since I use each of those at some time or another to play the jamtracks or listen to how Brian plays a lesson. I even have some jamtracks on my iPhone in case of emergency. This is partly because I am sometimes in places with no internet. Since they are all on my computer, it’s easy to add them to my ActiveMelody or Jamtracks playlist in iTunes.
Finally, I have made a list of all the AM lessons (not totally up to date yet) with lesson number, Brian’s description, and my comments (easy, difficult, hybrid picking, jazzy, rock blues, etc.), and every so often I even print this out so I can take it with me to The Land of No Internet.
