How can i change sort options for a playlist in ios8? I would like to sort by album, or album artist like I can in iTunes for OSX.

So here's an example of why I would like to figure this out. I have a playlist on my iPhone that contains only new music. I would like to be able to sort this playlist by artist, so that when i click on the playlist, I can quickly find the album I have added to the playlist and play it. Currently, I can only see a long list of tracks. How do you sort playlists?
Thanks!

I just found the solution to this myself.
In a very un-Apple way, this is an undocumented feature only accessible by right- (or control-) clicking.
1. Change one track to your desired sort settings (for instance, set the Sort Artist to Yankovic, Weird Al.
2. Right-click on that track. In the contextual menu that appears, there is a new submenu called "Apply Sort Field." If you choose "Same Artist," it will apply your new sorting information to all your other tracks by "Weird Al" Yankovic (or, if you are not a huge nerd, any other artist you substitute).

  • How can I change view options for ALL playlists?

    How can I change view options for ALL playlists? With one single click or trick?
    I have a lot playlists and don't want to change every single one of them separatly.
    Thanks for your help. (I use Windows 7)

    There's no FAST way I know of, which is what I think you mean.
    Only the painful SLOW way of one-by-one.
    You could make a new playlist from the main library after you've set the columns up as you like.
    Go to an existing playlist that doesn't have the columns you want, and select all.
    RIght-click > Add to Playlist and send them to the new playlist.
    That's still one-by-one and only works with static playlists, not smart ones.

    I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
    Thanks very much for your feedback.

    Jerry,
    Thanks for replying again. I've got a little bit further thanks to you. I tried the US keyboard layout as you seemed pretty definte that it should work. This time I applied the setting and also started the language toolbar and selected it from there.
    Hey presto, I've got the @ where it should be. Excellent.
    However the single quote ' works in a weird way. When I press it, it doesn't show up on the screen. But when I press another key, I get the single quote plus the next key I press. When I press the single quote twice, I get 2 of them. This is also the same with the SHIFT ' key. i.e. for the double quotes.
    Very strange. I'll look at other keyboards and see where that gets me.
    Thanks,  Maz

  • I downloaded Acrobat XI Pro onto my work computer on Friday. It downloaded in French though I indicated I needed English. I de-installed and re-installed several times but always French. How do I change that option?

    Hello,
    you could adapt the answer from there Re: Change language in Acrobat XI Pro - It does not work
    ... and if your Acrobat XI Pro is a part of CC you could work according to this scheme Adjust the install language | CCM >>> I quote: The language for the Creative Cloud applications is different from what you expect.

    Lelisa it is only necessary to connect to the internet periodically to receive updates and validate your membership.  If you have an annual membership you can be offline for up to 99 days.  You can find additional details at Activation & Deactivation Help.
    I would also recommend reviewing Creative Cloud Help | Install, update, or uninstall apps which discusses adjusting the installation language.

  • Can I change the name of a Playlist?

    How do I change the name of a Playlist in iTunes (if it's possible).

    In the left-hand pane, find the name of the playlist and click it twice.  It will highlight, and then you can overtype a new name.

  • Can someone help me? How do I change the option to pick where or what program I want to open a file after I've downloaded it? I tried to look for an option for this and can't find it anywhere.

    For example I download a file and I click on it and there will sometimes be a window that opens saying what program I want to open the file with? And then it'll also have a check box saying if I want to use this program for all files I download. I can't change it when I download the file because that one file I keep downloading keeps crashing my Firefox and I have to force quit. It's really getting on my nerves. It's an online statement I'm trying to view and I want to get rid of that problem!! Is there anyway to change that option without going to that download page?

    I would recommend going into device manager on your PC and making sure that you have correctly installed the IR dongle. Also what version of hotsync manager are you currently using?

  • Hi!!!How can I change the options in a VI express?

    I want to scale a signal, and I am using the vi express "Scaling and Mapping". But!!!!I want to control the differents "options" that I can choose, linear scale, slope...How can I do it? I don´t know if it is possible in a vi Express. I know that I can change the properties of controls and indicators using properties nodes, but I thing that it doesn´t work in this case, but I am not sure!!!!
    Thank you!!!
    Graci

    First thing to do is to convert the express VI to a standard subVI by right clicking on it and selecting Open Front Panel. Then, select which front panel controls that you want and add them to the connector pane.

  • Can't change wireless options

    I want to change some wireless options. I go to 192.168.1.1, sign-in, click wireless. I get a screen that says:
     "Searching for your client device. Please wait... If you haven't clicked on the Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on your client device, please do so now. "
    The screen did a scan, got to 99% and Hangs IE. Under the screen my wireless options are displayed. The only way out is to close IE by Xing or closing. I can't get to my wireless options to change them.
    Any suggestions?

    can you please provide provide the model number of router which you are using. You can try logging into router after reseting it and can configure it once again.

  • Can you change chart options at runtime?

    Howdy All:
        I'm trying to display charts in English and Japanese.  The lables on the charts (i.e., X-Axis, Y-Axis, Legend, etc.) are set in the properties window inside Visual Studio.  I would like to change these to Japanese at runtime if a user requests a Japanese version of the report instead of an English version of the report.  However, I have been unable to find a way to access the properties for the chart programatically.  Is this even possible and how?  If not, are there any suggestions on how I can accomplish this task in a different way?  Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    Hello,
    a possible workaround is to use a report library (report in english, report in japanese, different charts etc ) where you just download the needed report at runtime.
    Please also see the .NET chart class for useful properties :

  • I can't change info (options) from Music to AudioBook

    When I record an audiobook it is recorded under music. Once it is recorded I was always able to change the options from Music to Audiobook  by using 'Get Info' options.  I can do this with some CD's but not others.  Also if an Audiobook has 5 CDs I used to be able to change all 5 at one time from Music to Audiobook.  Now this doesn't work at all.  I was running Itunes 10 on Windows 7 but now am running Itunes 11 on Windows 8.  I don't know if it's the itunes verson or the platform.  Anyone out there know how to force this change?
    Thanks,
    Vicki

    Check to see if iMessage is activated. Also, make sure the other party has iMessage activated. Sending an iMessage requires both parties, the sender and the receiver to have an active internet connection. If iMessage is active, the check your Send & Receive and make sure your phone number is checked. After that, you may need to delete the conversation that you have with that contact, however I've not experienced that when I have an individual send problem with a contact. It will usually pick up that they are connected to data again.
