How to activate the song, artist and album windows so you can type in those entries

how do you activate the windows for song, artist, album in iTunes library? I used to put the cursor over the category, double click on it, then type in the song name, artist name, album, genre etc., but that technique doesn't seem to work now.

Highly Unlikely.
If you have Updated your version of iTunes on your computer to Sync your New iPhone...

  • How to access the "Genre", "Artist", and "Album" Panel via COM/script

    I thought I posted this a couple of days ago, but checking on "My Posts", it appears I didn't. Oooops
    I'm using the COM interface, which is also same as the scripting one.
    I'm trying to discover what elements in the iTunes main window have been selected, and thus "highlighted".
    The main window appears, to the interface, to be the "BrowserWindow", not to be confused with the View -> Show Browser window. Within this main window, I can identify which Playlist is currently selected, and/or which individual tracks are selected.
    But, what I'm trying to do, is also identify if any elements in the View -> Show Browser window are also selected. "Genre", "Artist", and "Album".
    Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so, how do I achieve it.
    Cheers,
    Eddie

    In case you don't get any replies here, Eddie (your post might get buried under queries about iTunes 7.7), it might also be worth checking in at Teridon's google discussions. Robert's post here has a link through to those:

  • How to give the length , cardinality and format when creatin a data type?

    Hi,
    I am new to XI and i wish to know how to give the cardinality ,format and length when creating a data type .Also please let me know how to give the following?
    cardinality --repeating and required
                      non repeating , optional
    thanks and regards

    When you are defining the elements of the datatype there are columns where you can do what you need:
    <b>column type</b>: here you choose the type of data of the element
    it can be a standard type or a user defined one (if you click one time only it should appear an icon in the right for input help: click there and choose the type you need)
    <b>column occurence </b>: in a similar way of column type here you define the cardinality of the element (min occurence and max occurence)
    setting min occurrence: 1, max occurrence 1 or unbounded --> required
            mmin occurrence 0, max occurrence 0, 1 or unbounded --> optional
    about the attributes there are directly the choice between required or optional.
    <b> column details </b>: here you define the length of the  element if it is a string or a lot of other things if the type is a different one.
    I hope this will help you

  • Songs, Artists, and Albums showing up in Compliations....

    I have several artists, songs, and albums in my iTunes library that show up under "compliations" but not as an actual artist--even though all the I have all the artist, song, and album info. Also--the same happens with my iPod: the artist shows up ONLY when searched via the album.
    For example:
    The artist The Postal Service--shows up in Compliations, but is not listed alphabetically in my library. On my iPod, they're listed ONLY under the album "Give Up", and not as an artist.
    Finding music this way is rather confusing. Anyone know how to fix this?

    greetings Stevornio, and welcome to the forums !
    this tip come from TT2:
    +To display all artists in the Artists menu on your iPod, even those who only appear on compilations, remove the ticks against both of the iPod Compilation menu items, i.e.+
    +Settings > Main Menu > Music > Compilations+
    +Settings > Music Menu > Compilations+
    +Cover flow should remain the same, with all compilations albums listed at the right-hand end.+
    +To display all artists in the Artists browser column in iTunes turn off the preference to Group compilations when browsing. Provided you have set the Album Artist field the albums should remain grouped together.+
    you may also want to check these illustrated tips by TT2.
    any help ?

  • Zen Touch: How to edit multiple songs artists and genres at once with new firmwa

    With the old firmware I was able to do that with Nomad Explorer. But with the V2 firmware, I cannot use the Nomad Explorer anymore, and Media Source Organizer only alows to edit one track at once. Zen Touch Explorer also does not allow me to do that.
    I tried to use Windows Media Player 0 and it worked, but after I closed the program and started it again, all my edits at the Library were gone. If I edit the library and sync to my Zen Touch will it apply what I edited on the library or will it keep the original ID3 tag from the song? How to make the modification permanent to the MP3 ID3 tag on the PC?
    I think creative should allow edition of multiple songs with Zen Touch Explorer on the same way Nomad Explorer used to do with firmware V.

    I haven't seen a program which does batch editing for MTP devices. Real Player does allow you to edit the ID3 tags of songs on the player, but one at a time.
    With most music programs when you change an ID tag on your computer it doesn't update on the player, so you would have to delete it from the player first then retransfer it, or find a program which edits the tags on the player such as Real Player.
    The issue is most likely speed, it will take awhile to do batch editing on the player so that could be a reason why programs dont support it..

  • How to activate the select tool and enter drawing mode in pages

    In pages 5.0 if you want a pure drawing document you have to turn off i.e. unclick Header, Footer, Document Body in the document setup and the arrow tool will replace the text curser tool. When you unclick document body you will get "are you sure" and say yes.
    first choose a new blank document
    click setup in the upper right corner
    and uncheck the document body
    and when the dialog box pops up choose remove
    to avoid any header and footer issues also uncheck the header and footer
    Now you basically have the Apple works old draw environment.

    That is not necessary at all.
    Just click away from all text and objects then select the Drawing tool from the Shapes icon.
    It is actually one the distinct improvements in Pages 5 over Pages '09. Not perfect but a big step forwards.

  • ITunes 12 sorting artists and albums wrong/out of order

    Hi,
    So I'm using iTunes 12, though this problem occurred with 11 too...
    As you can see in the image, I'm using Mac DeMarco as an example, it happens with selected other artists too. I have two albums of his, yet they don't appear together and there are multiple instances of the artist. Even the albums don't appear together. Both of them have the same "Artist" and "Album Artist" information.
    Here you can see one instance:
    Here's the second instance. Note, the artist appears amongst the "D" artists, after Deftones for some reason, instead of "M" with the other album:
    What is going on? Please help.

    Enable the Sort Artist and Sort Album Artist columns, chances are that the fields have been set inconsistently.

    Thank you to all for your answers.
    I will try with getjar.
    I have one more question concerning the installation of the applications.
    I have Nokia PC Suite installed on my computer and a blutooth connexion with my phone.
    Could someone tell me how I have to proceed ?
    For example, I would like to install "KODi English-French Dictionary" (http://www.getjar.com/products/14408/KODiEnglishFrenchDictionary). On this web page, it is proposed to me to download a Jad file and a Jar file. Do I have to download both ?

  • How do I get all the songs from an album to show in the album view?  Currently, if an album lists the artist plus a guest artist, those are shown separately and appear to be two different albums on my iPod.  How do I get all the songs on that album togeth

    How do I get all the songs from an album to show in the album view?  Currently, if an album lists the artist plus a guest artist, those are shown separately and appear to be two different albums on my iPod.  How do I get all the songs on that album together on my iPod?  If the album is a collaboration wtih many artists, each sond may appear as a separate album.

    I used to have this problem.
    First, you need to go back on iTunes
    you need to go to each of the songs that are having this problem
    Click the album so all the songs drop down
    Right click the songs that have this problem
    Click ' Get info '
    Click the tab that says " info '
    The box that says ' album artist ' should probably be empty (correct me if I'm wrong)
    Click it and type the artist of the entire album, NOT the songs guest artist
    as such,
    ARTIST
    JAY-Z Feat. Justin Timberlake
    ALBUM ARTIST
    JAY-Z
    These should be separate for each artist
    If you write the same album artists for each song by that artist, all the songs should be on 1 album

    Before I updated my iPod I had all of the songs to an album that I bought on iTunes. After I updated my iPod I only have 5 of those songs from the album. I would like to know how I can get the rest of the songs cause I already paid for the album and I went on my computer and it said that I have to pay for them even though I already paid for the whole album. So what do I do?

    Sync with the same computer iTunes that you normally sync with.

  • HT1660 How do i get all the songs from 1 album to appear as 1 album instead of 3 albums because they feature guest artists

    How do i get all the songs from 1 album to appear as 1 album instead of 3 albums because 2 of the songs feature guest artists in my itunes library?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • How do I set up iTunes to keep all the songs in an album together and not rearrange and separate them according to singer / live recording etc.?

    When I install an album from a CD, iTunes arranges the songs as multiple albums according to who is listed as the singer and if the songs are marked as being live recordings. If I load an album, I would like all the songs on that album to be listed together under the album's name and not as 3 separate albums!

    You are most welcome

  • How can I list the songs in an album in iTunes without having to do it one by one? Some albums are not numbered.

    How can I list the songs in an album in iTunes without having to do it one by one? Some albums are not numbered or they show 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1.

    Poor metadata needs to be corrected if the album is to display properly in iTunes. iTunes sees an "album" as any collection of tracks with the same Album title and the same Album Artist (or Artist if Album Artist isn't set). Each track of the album should have distinct Track V of W and Disc X of Y vaules. W,X,Y are optional, but X may be needed for multi disc albums.
    See Gropuing tracks into albums for details.
