How can I sort albums in a genre by release date in the itunes store

How can I sort albums in a genre by release date in the itunes store

Did you figure this out? Am having the same problem.
EDIT:
Found the group in store (in this case Juana Molina) It said music -> alternative
Changed to column view, and could not find the artist at all in any of the sub categories.
iTunes is really the biggest pain in the .... and has gotten worse over the years.

Put your library in Songs view. Make sure you have columns visible for Kind and BIt Rate. If those columns are not visible, add them by going to View > View Options.
You can sort either on Kind or on Bit Rate (but not both at the same time) by clicking on the column heading.

Can't sort albums in a folder

I keep my photos organized by creating folders for each year. If I click on the 2010 folder, I can see that all of the photos sorted chronologically, from top to bottom.
Because I don't want to carry my entire photo library on my iPad, I also drag events into the 2010 folder and manually sync them with the iPad.
Here's my problem: When I drag an albums into the 2010 folder, they seem to have no logical sort order. They don't list alphabetically by event name, and they don't sort chronologically by date; there's no predicting where they'll show up in the list. Clicking on "Sort Albums" does noting as far as I can tell.
Is it possible to get albums in a folder to sort, and if so, how do I do it?

You need to grant EXECUTE privilege on all those application components to PUBLIC user. You can do this by clicking on the "Grant Access" link pertaining to each of the components in the navigator and granting execute privilege on the components to the public user.
This will work.

How can I sort albums by album artist while keeping compilations together?

Argh, I'm getting a bit exasperated. Basically I just want to be able to scroll through cover flow and see all my albums with one cover representing each album, with all the compilations near the end under "V" for various. Surely most people would want to scroll through their albums in this way??
So I've gone through and added all the album artist info, which has worked fine for the artist albums. But for all the "Various" ones, instead of doing the logical thing and grouping them together by album, iTunes orders these all by track artist. There doesn't seem to be any secondary sort function..
I'm always defending Mac and Apple products for their logical applications and ease of use, and now I feel let down.. If there's a way around this please let me know! Thanks,
Malinna

The trouble you're encountering is that iTunes sorts first by Album Artist, then by Artist. Thus, within each Album Artist, you'll get multiple Artist clumps.
You want to sort "Album by Artist". This will, first, strip out all your compilations and sort them to the end of your library, then sort using the hierarchy Album Artist (or Artist if there is none) > Album > Disc # > Track #. Click the Album column header until Album by Artist is displayed. (You can also choose Album by Year, which will sort albums chronologically within Album Artist.)
If you want to keep albums together, you'll need to sort on an Album column; other columns are bound to clump things by whatever you're sorting on.

Can I sort album by year in iTunes 11?

Specifically, when I'm viewing my music in "Artist" view (with the artist list on the left, albums on right), is there a way to set the albums to sort by year rather than alphabetically?

Thanks! Why in the world this isn't the default setting is beyond me though. No one who has had vinyl or CD's files by 'name of album'. (at least no one i've ever known!)

Can get sort by file name not by added order?

When I import, LR for some reasons seems to always default the sort to added order, not filename. Its a real nuisance, anything I can do. thanks!

Ok, found view toolbar, funny, I don't even see the toolbar, what is it. what does it show? I doubt it's relevant to this conversation...?
Cornelia, thanks. ok, so the default is previous import. Can I get LR to default to Folders?
Ok, so you are like me, if you want capture time as your sory then you have to remember to manually then click the folder name? But still even with the folder name selected LR chooses added order, not what I want.

How can I sort Library by name?

After migrating to iMovie 11 and having all my folders by year wiped out, I'm trying to figure out how to reorder my library so the events are in order by date.
I don't think there is a way to make an iMove library sort by date (please tell me if wrong), or group by date (as I used to in the old iMovie with folders for each year).
So I'm wondering just how to resort. I have all my events named sort-of by date, like
2004 BBQ
2004 spring trip
2007 ski trip
2008 party
but then I have others where I added the month to the start of the event name, so for Feb 2004:
200402 swim meet
and they are sorting now so 200402 comes after 2008, so things are now out of order (I understand it is doing by number).
Wondering the best way to quickly get these back so I can have them in order/group by date. I have TONS of events and now their order is a mess.
Or if my only fix is to rename all of my events with YYYYMMDD or YYYYMM, etc., which would be a big big bummer...
Thanks

It might be possible, but it's not a simple modification. The script extracts the purchaser's name via a shell script using grep, so to change it so that the playlist is named for the iTunes Store account name, someone would have to be able to figure out how to extract the account name via a grep. That's not something I have yet figured out. You could email Doug and ask if this is something he could consider for a future version:

How can I sort albums on ipad in A-Z order ?

I have 200 albums in my iPad. They are multiple pictures of individual cars. I have them titled by year and make. Is there a way to sort them by title instead of moving them around by hand?

I believe that albums are sorted by the creation date. I don't think that you can change this in the Photos App.

How can you sort albums in coverflow by category??

My cover flow shows over 200 albums alphabetized by artists.
Is there any way to have coverflow sorted to display the albums sorted by
categories and within categories by artists?
Example-I have three categories of albums
classical
jazz
rock
I'd like to have coverflow display all the classical albums first
then followed by jazz category, and by rock category
Thanks for your help!

I would also be interested in sorting options, and also displaying different fields under the coverflow picture.
Standards seems to be
- Album
- Album Artist
Can his b changed to different options?
Thanks

Can you sort albums by release date, rather than year, in album view?

I love the new album view in iTunes 11, but the only problem I have with it is sometimes albums are in the wrong order.
For example, last year Green Day released a trilogy of albums called ¡Uno!, ¡Dos! and ¡Tré! but since they were released in the same year, they're ordered as ¡Dos!, ¡Tré, ¡Uno! when sorted by artist and then year which really doesn't sit right with me.
In short, the sorting options for albums view are very limited, is there any way to extend them?
Also I'm aware that I could, as a cheap fix, change the sorting in album to the release date backwards, but I'd rather not do that as it would make it a bit more troublesome for me to navigate my albums on my iPhone.
Thanks!

I agree that Apple should improve the year field to be an actual date.
I am not 100% happy doing this, but when you have multiple albums from a single artist for the same release year, a temporary solution is to chage the album title by adding an outline type letter before album titles for that year, so that they appear in the correct order:
David Bowie
1977
a. Low
David Bowie
1977
b. "Heroes"
etc
This could help in the short term until Apple changes that field.

When I import photos from PC to iPhoto can I sort by file name?

***Planning on converting from PC to Mac soon.***
I have organised my photos on my PC into folders. For some of these photos I have renamed the files to ensure they always display in a certain order when sorted alphabetically.
I am aware that iPhoto does not really use file names. I see the advantages of this but as I am used to the Windows convention I have the following question:
When I import my photos to iPhoto, will they still be sorted alphabetically by the file names I have carefully created on my Windows PC, or will I need to resort them manually?
Thanks!

When you import into iPhoto, each imported set goes into a folder called Last Import.
One way to do what you want without losing your organization:
iPhoto / File / Import to Library. Navigate to the first folder on the pc. and click on Import. The contents of the folder on the PC will all come together.
On the Mac the photos will be in the folder called Last Import.
On the Mac, create a new folder with the name you want. (File Menu / New folder)
Move the photos as a batch (select all) from the Last Import folder to the one you just named.
Do this as many time as you have folders.
