Primeiros passos
Iniciando o Amarok
Se você já conhece um pouco do seu sistema operacional, provavelmente você também sabe como iniciar o Amarok, podendo continuar no próximo tópico. Caso contrário, continue lendo.
From Plasma
If you are running the Plasma Workspace, you can start Amarok by either:
- pressing on Kickoff and then .
- invoking KRunner (Alt + F2 by default), entering
amarok
and then pressing Enter.
From the file manager
Open a multimedia file that Amarok is known to play.
First Time
The first time you use Amarok, a dialog box will come up asking you to specify your locale:

Next, a First Start dialog box will come up asking you to specify where your music is located. If you have a music directory already configured in your system, Amarok should detect it and ask you to use it:

If you select
in this dialog, you will be presented with another one which allows you to select your music folder:![](/images.userbase/thumb/8/81/Amarok2.4.1ConfigureDialogCollection.png/400px-Amarok2.4.1ConfigureDialogCollection.png)
Once you have selected the folder where your music is, Amarok will scan the folder and sub-folders, creating the collection. This can take some time, depending on the number of tracks and the speed of the location.
Closing Amarok
If you want to close Amarok:
- Type Ctrl + Q when you are in the Amarok window, or
- Select the option in the menu, or
- Right-click on the blue wolf icon in the System Tray at the bottom of your screen. You will be presented with the following:
![](/images.userbase/0/0f/Amarokrightmenu.png)
If you close the Amarok window by clicking on the window border, Amarok will continue to run in the background and only show the blue wolf icon in the System Tray:
![](/images.userbase/c/c6/Amaroksystray.png)
If you log out of your session or shut down your computer without quitting Amarok, some of your settings will not be saved.
