Changes to list view in iTunes 8

I've noticed some changes to the list view in iTunes 8, which in my personal opinion, means it doesn't look as good as in previous versions.
For example, in previous versions there was a little gap between albums, there are now all bunched up together, and I feel it just makes the screen look a bit cramped. I'd prefer an option to have it looking like it used to.
There are also changes to the artwork column. The shadow for album artwork has been removed. The font for artist and title has been made bigger, there is also a grey background which I don't remember being there before.
I realise these are only minor points compared to some of the issues some people have been having with iTunes 8, but given how much attention Apple normally pays to having attractive GUIs, I feel these changes are a step back.
Does anyone else feel some of these changes should be reversed, or is just me?

I agree with you that the lack of gaps between albums makes it more difficult to pick each one out in the list, as does the uninterrupted repetition of the alternately coloured row background.
I guess this is a side-effect of making artwork display in list view optional. I too prefer the previous approach.

    i dont want the sidebar with artitst
    i want to see them like albums and like the itunes 10

    I have the same problem! I'm currently searching answers to this question. There should be an option somewhere in the new iTunes where it allows the Artists view to change from detailed view to smaller and bigger view. I also want the Artist view to look like the Albums and Movies view.

  • How do i change the artist view in itunes 11 back to the original view?

    How do i change the artist view in itunes 11 back to the original or pre itunes 11 view?

    You can't. iTunes 11 has different ways of viewing your library from earlier builds. You can restore some of the look/function of the old version by turning on the menu bar (ctrl-b), sidebar (ctrl-s) and also clicking the magnifying glass then unticking Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
    If that isn't enough the see this post on how to roll back to iTunes 10.7.

  • Calendar change of list view

    When did Apple change the list view? It was perfect with the last upgrade and now today I have the month shown and a narrow slot for the list to scroll thru. Stupid....if I wanted the month I would view the month. When I want the list I don't need the month. The list view is worthless now.

  • Where is List View in ITunes 11.0.1.12? Mine is greyed out

    Hello.
    I cannot select "List View" on my ITunes Library listings (MUSIC/MOVIES etc.all display as Album Art)..but it is displayable as List View in my Playlists.
    Is this now a fixed feature of ITunes 11.0.1.12 or can I change it so List View appears in my Library all the time if I want it to?
    Kind Regards,
    Wayne

    Aha!...The "Songs" button. I just saw this in the discussions..sorry to waste your time. Thank you

  • ' Playlist' has no 'list view' in iTunes lastest update

    ITunes just had an update. I installed.
    Interface is somewhat changed, but easily learned.
    I use my playlists to perform as backing tracks.
    The playlists NEW main page has icons which are blank because there is no album for that song.
    How can I get rid of the album icons? All I want is a 'list view' of my Playlist.
    Thank you

    Hi ckuan,
    That makes sense and that works. Thank you.
    I was sure I remembered having my entire Playlist in 'List View' without the album art, but it appears that may never have been.
    The Music AP is ios on the iPad and apparently doesn't support that feature as iTunes does.

  • Normal list view in iTunes 8

    I can see how to switch all the views in iTunes. However when I go to the listing view (one on the left) everything is still grouped with album arts and what not showing in the display window. How can I get to just the normal "list" of songs that I can sort without this? I don't need album arts on the side as it gets annoying scrolling through 15,000 songs that aren't all on albums with art work.
    Is this totally gone?

    It looks like you are stuck in grid mode (middle). I click on list mode and there are all the songs just like before the update. Don't give up this feature wasn't removed it's just a matter of trying to figure out how to get the list button to work for you.

  • Podcast list view in iTunes 11

    Not sure if I am missing something here, but I regularly search for podcasts on specific subjects. More likely than not it's individual episodes I want, rather than a podcast series. However, in iTunes 11, when you click on an individual episode after searching it takes you to the whole series. You then have to look through that whole series to find the episode that showed up in your search.
    This is really really annoying. In iTunes 10, you could look at all the episodes in a list, and click the ones you wanted to download. Now you have to hop in and out of whole podcast series, find the specific episode you want, then back out and onto the next one. When you're downloading 20 or 30 at a time it's a real pain.
    Am I missing something? Is there a way to get the old convenient list view back?

    I'd like to have this list view back as well.
    It was usefull for choosing a podcast based on date and/or length.
    I will submit feedback on this and suggest all others who want it back do the same.

  • Artist List View in iTunes 11

    Is there a way to set "Artist List" view as the default view for all playlists? There has to be a default setting somewhere so that you don't have to go through every single playlist and manually change it, right?
    Thanks!

  • HT5772 How do I delete podcast episodes that I don't want to keep without having them stay in my List view in iTunes and clog it up?  I have some episodes that I've listened to that I want to keep, but others I want to delete.

    Using iTunes on my MacBookPro, I find that when I want to delete selected podcast eisodes, they still stay in my List view with the cloud symbol next to them. I don't want them in my List view. I want them gone. I don't want to download them ever again. I do keep some episodes so I don't want to do the draconian thing and delete all podcast episodes once I've heard them. The other problem I have with trying to delete episodes is that some podcasts then have the same episodes pop back up as though I haven't listened to them. I've deleted a bunch of Science Friday episodes only to have them download again ready to hear. Not only that, but some episodes will finish playing or stop playing in the middle of an episode and a random podcast will start playing. Think! does that. GAH!!
    Does anyone know a workaround? The same nonsense happens in any iTunes view I try.
    <Edited by Host>

    You can delete photos from individual albums but not from the camera roll.  If you try to delete a photo from camera roll it will be deleted from all other albums ("locations") that contain the photo.  This is because the actual photo is in the camera roll (the albums only contain links to the photo in camera roll, not the actual photo).

  • How to view my music in list view in iTunes 11?

    I am largely unimpressed with the new-look iTunes11. Before, I could very quickly scroll through my large music library in list view, but scrolling through the library is very sluggish, as iTunes has to wait for all of the album art to load.
    There is a list view option for the movies, but not for music. Am I missing it somewhere?

    I know how to view the sidebar. But I'm talking about viewing my songs, artists, etc. in LIST view, i.e. without the album art showing.
    The LIST view is available for movies in the sort options at the top of the window, but not in the music section.
    EDIT: I figured it out! By clicking on the "SONGS" sort option, then arranging by artist, it is like viewing the music library in list view.

  • How do I get back album list view in iTunes 11?

    I want it to look like this
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/inside-itunes/2010/09/new-album-list-view-option-in- itunes-10.html
    But I can't seem to find a way now

    This is what I want it to look like in EvilGnome's post. Is there a way?
    Ignatia: Putting it on Songs tab then clicking on "Album" doesnt work as theres no resulting window that appears with album art and tracks after clicking on the Songs tab....its just a long list of track titles.
    Basically i want the songs in text format but seperated by the album art to the left. like in EvilGnome's picture - not just a long list making it hard to figure out. Why Apple would even remove this option god knows....
    Don't fix something that ain't broke.
    Currently it looks like this using the songs tab in iTunes 11....no album art anymore
    I want it to look like the pic below (pic from evilgnome's post and how i was using itunes previously):

  • Homepage changed to list view

    I set my home page to MSN and I used to get the "normal" MSN page with graphics, pictures and news print. Firefox changed my MSN home page to a "list" view that shows just links, no pictures (or very few) and no print to read the news. How can I get Firefox to recognize a normal MSN page?
