Can you change the look of the list in Itunes ?

Hello,
I am pretty new to Itunes and was wondering if you can change the way Itunes lists the songs etc you have in the library.
For instance, if you have say 100 artists each with a few albums each with about 10 songs in each, your list will be rather long.
So can you, as is done in Windows Explorer, expand and contract the list as you want it, with the albums and album track not displayed (when the + is shown in Win Explorer) ?
So if you have the list sorted in Artists, you only have 100 lines in the list, one per artist. And if you click or choose an artist, the list is expanded to show that artists albums. Then if you choose one of the albums, then it is expanded further to show the tracks on that album.
Does that make sense ? I think its called an heirarchical (spelling) list ?
I just thought It would make it a little easier to manage the list with so many songs and videos appearing at once.
Although I saw this posted today too, I am also looking for help to put my audiobooks into the right category on my Ipod.
I have copied some of my audiobooks using Itunes and they have been stored simply as music. On my Ipod there are no audiobooks showing and when I play shuffle there are too many instances of my audiobooks creeping in !
Any help on the above 2 problems woul dbe most appreciated.
Cheers, George.

I already posted this on another post, but thpught I would mention it in my own question as I have another question stemming form this .......
Hi,
I just spoke to Apple Support (UK) who said that only audiobooks purchaced at Istore or Audible.com (I think) will be put into the Audiobooks folder in Itunes.
However, I asked what format would be required to get into the audiobooks folder and was told that if you convert these AAC files to M4U, that should do the trick.
Itunes, of course, cannot do this so I was told to searcht he net for some conversion tool, which I am about to do, unless anyone already knows of one that I can use ?
Hope this helps (and that it works).
I also asked about Podcasts because I downloaded one from Radio 1 on the BBC website and it was treated in the same way as a normal song and not treatred like a Podcast. When I asked Apple Support about this they said that it was in the correct format (MPEG audio file) and so should be treated as a Podcast.
So, does anyone have any ideas why my downloaded Podcast is treated like a normal song, and if so, how do I fix this ?
Any help would be most welcome.
Thanks.

  • Can I change the list of applications in the dictation commands list?

    Dictation commands only has the applications present at time of Yosemite installation and doesn't add or delete them. How can I change the list?

    There is an Apple info sheet entitled "OS X Yosemite: Use Dictation Commands to tell your Mac what to do." It shows you a lot of existing commands and also how to add your own new commands.  :-)
    That :-) above was added using the Apple dictate system.
    Sorry I don't have a link.

  • Switcher ?Can you change the size of the screen resolution on the Macbook?

    I'm really interested in buying a Macbook. This will be my first Mac. I love the way they look and feel. I'm concerned with the size of everything on the Macbook. The overall size of the fonts in applications such as word, or safari was too small for me.
    Can you change the size of the screen resolution in OSX like you can on Windows? In Windows doing this makes everything visually bigger.
    Please say you can. I'm really wanting the Macbook as it would be great for for a student like me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Hopefully a Macbook 13" 2.0 Superdrive soon.
    Hopefully a Macbook 13" 2.0 Superdrive White soon.

    With an LCD, if you change the resolution, things will be bigger, but blurrier.
    You can however keep the resolution of the LCD at its native resolution, giving the maximum picture quality, and then use tools, such as Tinkertool…

    … to modify the font display size of items such as the menu bar, Finder labels etc etc.

  • Can you change the value of app_user?

    can you change the value of app_user?

    Hi Scott,
    Thanks for being patient.
    A lot of the reports are based on personal information tied to the username. so on my reports I use app_user to pull the information. the app is a production app so when problems arise a lot of the time is user error but the users are in some other state so i need a way to look at the same thing they are looking at. I need to be able to sign in as them but since the app uses sso they cannot give me their corporate passwords. when i changed the value of g_user it changes but only for the scope of the region that i changed it in. it does not persist for the session.
    Thanks Fernando

  • Can you change the default image capture program in RH8?

    Can you change the default image capture program in RH8? I have used Snagit for sooo many years and I would like to use it by clicking the Caputre button.  I know how to change it to edit pictures with Snagit (Tools > Options > Associations), but not to capture.

    Looks like a feature request.

  • Can you change the legth of time (or number of rings) it takes for on iphone 4 to time out making an outgonig call?

    Can you change the legth of time (or number of rings) it takes for on iphone 4 to time out making an outgonig call?
    Mostly it's to call in for radio contests. The Iphone is really good at making a quick call, but it seems to timeout after 15-20 rings. I realise this is a small thing, but free tickets is free tickets.
    Most commenst I see is abotu incoling calls, not outging.
    Thanks.

    No. You can't do this with any phone.

  • Can you limit the list of AirPlay devices seen on the iPad if multiple devices exist?

    We are setting up a school to use iPads, Apple Tvs and Projectors in classrooms.
    - Teachers are using iPads in classrooms and we are setting up wireless projection using AirPlay.
    - Each classroom has an Airport Express with a unique WiFi name.
    - Each classroom has a projector with an Apple TV mounted on it and each Apple TV has a unique AirPlay name.
    - An iPad and the AppleTV are the only two devices on each classroom’s wifi.
    - When a teacher wants to mirror iPad to the projector, we thought they would just see their own AppleTv (projector) but, I think because the underlying school network is the same in each classroom, the teacher sees every device in the school.
    Question:  If you have multiple AirPlay devices on the same network, can you limit the list that one sees on an iPad?
    And/or: Is there a way to set up the wifi differently so the teacher is not presented with a huge list of devices?

    I wish teachers like you would leave technology you don't understand alone. The fact you were allowed to plug-in "consumer grade" access points into a enterprise network says a lot about your lack of knowledge; next you want to turn all of these low end access points into routers!? Your going configure a unique SSID on every AP setup each device to only connect to that network? Do you have any consent of wireless networks? Management?
    It's teachers like you that bring down a network. Then you insult the very IT staff that work in a very thankless position in which most of their interaction occurs when something doesn't work.

  • Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW?

    Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW? I use this for a vacation rental and people never ever ever ever need to see anything but the MONTH VIEW. I hate having to tell them to click MONTH view at the top of the page. Is there a way to force it to always appear in MONTH? Thanks!

    ddotcom,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Unfortunately no, but if they are repeat viewers why not tell them to change their view to "Monthly" using the "Preferences" button on that page?

  • How can you change your line access selection?  I have found where you can change your plan selection, but can you change the line access fee or is that a set amount?

    How can you change your line access selection?  I have found where you can change your plan selection, but can you change the line access fee or is that a set amount?

        DIVAB71,
    Great question. The line access fees for the account are a set amount and can not be changed unless you are going from a basic to a smartphone or vice versa. If you are wondering about adding the month to month discount if you are out of contract Ann154 has provided great information on how to access and add the feature.

  • Can you change the extensions in Adobe Muse from .html to .htm?

    Can you change the extensions in Adobe Muse from .html to .htm?
    I'm updating an old site where the extensions for the pages were all.htm. This means that when I upload the site index.htm is not being over written by index.html.

    Hi,
    It is not possible to change the extension in Muse at the moment. You can export the site as HTML and change the extensions outside the Muse.

    How can you change the bubble color in the message app on the iphone 5?

    If you are having trouble reading your texts you can increase the font size until it becomes clear. Put in a feature request for the colour change though, it won't happen unless people ask for it.

  • How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?

    How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?  I searched the system and finder prefs to no avail.  Changing the screen density is not a good option.
    Thanks

    I downloaded Tinkertool.  Found the font section and increased the size of most selections.  The only thing that changed that I can see is the window label.  The apple line, bookmarks line, the tool bar in safari are all the same---font size of about 4.  Found the finder "show view options" but that didn't seem to change anything either.  I'll keep working.  Restarted all apps after changes as well.
