Can iPod display Genre info. when a song is playing?

If so, how?
Right now iPod dispalays Title, Artist and Album.
I really need the Genre information to show up, and was trying to see if there is a way to control what gets displayed when a song is playing.
Thanks,
Dorian

The only way to do it would be to add it to the song or artist entry.

Go to iTunes menu View -> Show browser.
Select a Genre at the top left which you want to change.
This will show all songs with that Genre.
Select all the songs shown and right click - get info.
Change the Genre to what you want and the misspelled one will disappear.

For the missing Artists on your iPod, make sure their tracks in iTunes are not marked as "Part of a compilation" in iTunes. You can do this by highlighting the track, right->clicking on them and choosing "Get Info" from the shortcut menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Info tab and make sure there is NO tick mark next to this option in the lower right hand corner. Lastly, sync the updated changes to your iPod.

Why doesn't my lyrics come up on the screen when a song is playing?

Before I updated my iPad to iOS5, the lyrics would automatically come up when a song is playing in album cover view. Now nothing. Even after I erase the lyrics and retype them in iTunes it still doesn't work. Is there something that I'm missing? Please help.

I just did some poking around on other Apple forums here and found a recommendation for an app which actually does take the embedded lyrics from iTunes and display them on the iPad. It's been around since November, so I don't know why I never saw it before. I'm posting the information about it on several threads so that others are aware of it. It's called Lyrics View and it works well. The only quibbles I have with it are that it doesn't display the title, which the Music app used to do automatically, and when you switch out of the current song it takes you to Songs rather than Artists or Albums, so you have to change to Artists if you want to hear someone else.
It also displays the lyrics with the first lines all the way at the top of the screen, so they are sometimes hard to see behind the progress indicator, but you can make the indicator disappear with a click.
At least there's a workaround until Apple fixes this, assuming that they do.

Phone reboots when certain songs are played on the music app?

on my iphone 5c, if i try playing certain songs in my music app, they play for a few seconds and then my entire phone reboots. i have a lot of music on my phone and all of the songs that do this are from the same album. it also didn't start doing this until after i updates to ios 8. i've tried looking elsewhere to see if someone else has had this problem but i've come up empty. its really inconvenient because i can't even listen to those songs now. i've also noticed that its only when i have headphones or an auxiliary cord plugged into my phone.

Hi princessruto,
If you are having issues with your restarting when certain songs are played through headphones, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

HT1349 My Ipod mini syncs, but when I go to play, no sound. I've tried multiple speakers and headphones. No Go. What next?

My Ipod mini syncs, but when I go to play, no sound. I've tried multiple speakers and headphones. No Go. What next?
My latest problem is that the Apple site will not recognize my equipment by it's serial number. I know the mini is old, but I like what it did for me and don't necessarily want to "upgrade".

This is the iPad in the Enterprise forum. You'll be more likely to get help with your issue if you ask in the appropriate iPod forum.
Regards.

How are you trying to play them, in the iTunes store or the Music and Videos apps ? Downloaded and synced music and videos should be in the Music and Videos apps, and you can stop content that is only in the cloud from showing in them via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music and Videos 'off' (under the 'show all' heading).
If you don't have your music and films/TV shows in those two apps then you should be able to download them into those apps via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app.

How to make my iPOD display thai fonts for thai songs?

Hi,
I'm Thai customer bought ipod nano from authorized dealer and I wonder why my iPOD cannot display thai fonts in music play list. How to solve this problem?

Thank you for your advice. I just take a look and
didn't see Thai language in my iPOD -*- hope to see
some update to solve this problem from iPOD
asia/thailand
The language capabilities of the iPod are clearly stated in the tech specs for the product:
http://www.apple.com/ipod/specs.html
The languages for song display are more than just those for the interface.
Nobody knows if or when Apple will come out with new iPods that expand this to include languages like Thai, Arabic, Hebrew, Vietnamese, Hindi, etc.

How can I display lyrics in iPad, the song which I purchase in iTunes, and added lyrics in iTunes.

I just brought some song in iTunes, and add lyrics in it, can be display in MAC, but can't display in my IOS8 iPad . Please help!

For whatever reason the iPad will not display lyrics, I think its been this way since iOS 7. The iPhone will display them, but not iPad. I don't think its a bug, I think Apple wants it this way for some reason ... give your feedback here:

Why does my iphone 4s display the incorrect album artwork when a song is playing?

When I rotate my phone, it makes no difference what song is playing at any given time, the artwork and track list is incorrect. For example when I rotate my phone horizontally from a song list view or a album track list view the album artwork is diplayed on the left and the track listing is on the right. Additionally the pause button is at the bottom of the album cover. The problem is that iTunes is not diplaying the song and ablum that is currently playing. What is the solution?
The image below is what is diplayed when a track is playing. How did the iPhone select this ablum to display?

Thank you for your help but it did not solve the problem. My lyrics are working again though so that's good. Additionally iTunes has duplicated some of my albums. Some albums appear normally but those that are duplicated show the iCloud download next to it.

Can not change genre info for my apps

I noticed that iTunes 9.2.1 has assigned a genre to my Apps and this allows me to sort them which is good. What is bad is that some of the applications have been assigned the wrong genre and when I go to change it, it isn't possible to do so.
Anyone else having the same problem ?
Note that I don't have this problem with Music, Books or Video as some others have reported. Just with Apps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Originally my daughter-in-law used her credit card to pay for a year for me. Then I cancelled it because it wouldn't work with an adapter and the Skype phone echoed so bad no one wanted to talk to me. Now it logs me on with her name. I asked how to change it....forget it no answer. Now it added people from Facebook that I didn't want and I cant remove them. This tells me I might want to pay for Ooma instead when I decide which long distance service I want.

Help!! My Ipod keeps freezing every 5-10 songs it plays

So my ipod keeps freezing every5-10 songs it plays. It tends to do this the most when it is on shuffle...Need help finding a soultion or the reason for this...is it the software or the Ipod itself...Thanks for your time

I think as your iPod is still under warranty you should get it serviced, or at least take it to an Apple store if one is nearby.

Getting audio dropouts when a song starts playing.....but not all the time

I have a 80GB Ipod. Use it mostly in my truck/car (have a IPOD interface in each). Usually use the shuffle mode for playing songs. It seems that as of a couple days ago I will get a audio drop out right after a song starts playing (one or two seconds into the song). Only lasts for a second or so but it does not happen on every song....there has not been a pattern that I can see (not every other song ot every thitrd song....just random..........) But it is always in the same place in the song......always one or two seconds after the song starts playing. Has anyone had this problem and if so how did you fix it? Thanks
