These links take you to the various sections of the User Manual for Giocoso Version 2. This is an obsolete version of the Giocoso music playing software and you are strongly advised to read the Version 3 User Manual (and install the Version 3 program) instead. Version 2 still works, but it is no longer under active development: there'll be no further bug fixes or feature enhancements, for example.
If you are still insistent on using Giocoso Version 2, however, then I'd strongly advise reading the pages linked to below in their entirety, whilst conceding that, if you are in a hurry, at least read sections 4, 5, 6 and 7 (the program display explained, the way Giocoso works with your digital music collection, installation procedures and play modes).
DON'T FORGET VERSION 3 IS THE MORE MODERN VERSION OF THE PROGRAM, THOUGH!
