On the iPhone 4: where are the song times within an album in iTunes Store?

Has anyone noticed that song time (or track time) has been omitted from the view of album contents in the iTunes Store on the iPhone 4?  If one takes an iPhone 3 running ios 3.1.3 and looks up an album in the iTunes Store and checks the songs listed within the album, the time of each song is shown in light gray before the buy/price button.  However, if the same procedure is done with an iPhone 4, the time of each song within the album is missing!  (Search an album on each phone—such as the Beatles’ Revolver—see the list of songs included and observe the difference.)  Since it has nothing to do with the iTunes Store itself, why is this?  In my internet search, I have not found a comment about this curious omission of important information—the length of a song (certainly useful before one buys a song from an album or if one compares various versions of the same musical composition by different artists).  Because song time is available in iTunes online by using a computer, why not show this on the current iPhone 4 since it can be seen on an iPhone 3 that still uses ios 3.1.3?

You can't on your phone, you can only gift the album - you will need to use your computer's iTunes

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Are any fo the unsyning songs DRM protected?
    What is the detail format of the non-syncing songs?
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • Why are some songs only available for other countries iTunes Stores

    I have tried to purchase some songs from the French ITunes Store, but I got an alert saying I had to switch over to the US store to do so. I did, but when I searched for the songs in the US store, I could not find them. Why is this so? Is there any way I can get the songs from the French iTunes Store?
    Thanks for the help

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that I do live in the US. I assume that it works the same, that Apple doesn't have permission to sell the French songs in the US. Thank you for the quick response.
    Thanks for the help

  • The info "i" button on albums in itunes store is not showing up?

    The quick view button at the bottom right corner of every album in the itunes store is not there anymore. Is this the same for anyone else or is it a glitch in my itunes?
    Does anyone know how to fix it?
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    It does work me.
    Quit iTunes and try again later.
    If it doesn't change tomorow you can re-download iTunes and install it again (this will not delete your media files).

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

  • ITunes shows that there are no songs on my iphone but there are 274 songs there. The data storage shows up as "other" on iTunes. I just want to clear the music on my phone but  I can't seem to do so. Is there any way to do this?

  • The songs on my iphone do not match up to the songs I tried to sync through iTunes

    The songs on my iphone 4 do not match up to the songs I tried to sync through iTunes. I manually sync my iPhone with my iTunes and on the music page it says it will sync 283 songs when only one playlist of 12 songs is selected to sync. How do I remove the 283 songs that are on my iPhone and then add the 12 songs in the playlist that I want to add?

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - If you are in the USA you can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - To transfer other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

  • Switched from iphone 4 to iphone 5 - where are my photos?

    I switched from iphone 4 to iphone 5 - where are my photos?

    Did you have them backed up anywhere? If not, they are most likely still on your iPhone 4. If you back them up to the cloud or to your computer, you could then place them on your new phone if you wanted.

  • In iTunes, is it possible to sort by albums, without all the songs listed below each album title?

    It seems there was something in the recent iOS7 release that have made a few changes in the way itunes is viewed on the iPhone.  In the past I would sort by artist, which would then show all the albums. Now it shows all the albums, but with all the songs listed below each album title.  I have several artist with over 50 albums, I don't want to scroll through all of the songs.  I clocked it at 1.3 miles to scroll through all of them.  If I sort by album, it does not group by the artist, just the album title. Any possible way to get this view back?

    No, I meant if you tap on the album title in the Artist viewso, does it collapse the song listing? Next, I asked if all the songs were not on the phone, like the ones you showed in the photo (with the cloud symbol). It appears that most of these songs are not really on your phone. What happens if you go to Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off as I mentioned in the last post. Here is a screen shot of my music app in Artist view.
    This is a mix of songs purchased from iTunes and self-ripped CDs that I have in my collection.

  • Is there a way to transfer songs from a Sony 16GB MP3 player to an iPod Classic? Tried dragging the songs to iTunes,only accepted 1400 of the songs. MP3 player was full.  I also had compiled the songs in a specific order and iTunes changed order.

    The songs from the Sony MP3 player need to be imported into your iTunes library first before they can be synced or added to your iPod Classic. 
    Regarding the songs that didn't import into iTunes, what format are they in and what seems to be different from them compared with the tracks that did import?

  • How can I see all of the songs I've ever bought on Itunes

    So I've been working on putting new songs onto my mom's ipod for about 4 hours now, and I'm getting very frustrated.
    Instead of putting all of the songs that I recently purchased into the library of all of the previous songs bought on the Ipod, the songs are all over the place and unorganized.
    My goal is to see all of the songs I've ever bought on Itunes, so I can delete everything off of the ipod and re-dowload all of them.
    I've tried seeing the recent purchases and only about 6 songs come up, even though I bought about 50, and I would like to see ALL songs history not just recent.

    You did not follow directions. I said to click on Account, not Purhcases. There you will find:

  • How do I sort so that all the songs for a particular album show up under only one album? Example:  Eminem 'Encore'  has multiple artists on the entire track list.

    Example:  Eminem 'Encore'  has multiple artists on the entire track list.  Several songs will just list Eminem as the artist, but a lot will have Eminem, FEATURING...so and so.  Each song that has "FEATURING" shows up as a different album, so if you are not paying attention, and pull all the songs from a particular album over to your ipod, for example, and you don't see that not all the songs are there, you won't get them all to transfer.
    Is there anyway to correct this?

    Each tune gets a file name - that is how iTunes works. iTunes is a data base manager.
    In a PlayList a reference is created that will link to a specific tune.
    You can take the tunes that you do not want listed under a particular album name and change the album name using 'Get Info' for that tune(s) from the iTunes window.

  • The buy icon has disappeared from my itunes store. How can I purchase songs??

    The buy icon has disappeared from my itunes store...how can I purchase songs??

    The Youtube app was removed by Apple in iOS6.  You can use either the iPhone app from Youtube (free in the app store, but you've got to set it at 2x), or go to www.youtube.com in a Safari web browser.  You can also add the web page to your Home Screen using the share feature.  It will then operate just like an app.
