Part 1: Create a playlist with all checked songs in your library:
- Create a new Smart Playlist in iTunes.
- Uncheck "Match the following condition" in the new playlist dialog. This will cause all songs to be in the playlist.
- Check the box by "Limit to" and fill it out with a very large number -- one that is much larger than the number of songs in your library (say, 300,000). Again, this will cause the playlist to include ALL songs.
- Check "Match only Checked Songs" and leave "Live Updating" checked. This will only match songs that are checked.
- Click OK and name the Playlist "Songs (Checked)".
Part 2: Create a playlist with all the unchecked songs in your library:
- Create a new Smart Playlist in iTunes.
- This time, leave "Match the following condition" checked.
- As the condition, select "Playlist is not 'Songs (Checked)'"
- Click OK and name the Playlist "Songs (Unchecked)".
[robg adds: This worked for me, though I think the upper Limit value is 99,999 -- I got a beep if I tried six digits. It always struck me as odd that there wasn't an easy way to see your unchecked songs; this is a nice workaround.]
