How can i make itunes alphabetize smart playlists with manual playlists...

...in the library panel on the left? its currently separated into two sections: smart, then manual. i want them alphabetized altogether, like previous versions of itunes did. i'm running 7.6.2 (9)

Don't think it's possible.
I'm running 7.42 and it sorts smart playlists first.

How can I make all my Smart Playlists sync onto my iPhone?

I recently updated my iTunes software to 10.6 or whatever the newest update was and since then, I have been unable to sync all my playlists onto my iPhone. The Top 25 Most Played, Recently Added, and 90s Music won't sync to my phone and I'm hoping someone can help me fix the problem. All the regular playlists are syncing just fine and 2 of the Smart Playlists I have are also syncing just fine. I've tried recreating the playlists but it still won't work. Any ideas?

I had the same issue. If they are selected in the Music tab, try duplicating, not just recreating, the playlist and deleting the old one. This worked for me and I have not had the issue again.

How can I make iTunes sort on the first word by default, even though that word is "The" or "A"?

How can I make iTunes sort on the first word by default, even though that word is "The" or "A"?
I myself think that (for instance) "A tribe called Quest" should be sorted under "A", not "T".
Now I can edit the sort options manually per track and/or per selection, but I would really like to just kill this "iTunes-knows-how-you-should-sort"-feature in iTunes.
Anyone any suggestion on how to do that?
Thanks

Here is a modified version of one of Doug's Scripts. My modification was to add Sort Name to the list of tags that could be changed. I tried it on a single track and it worked. I recommend backing up your library first. Select the tracks you want to change (or all tracks) and run the script from the Applescript Editor. If it works as intended, save it so you can apply it to newly imported tracks. And, yes, I know this isn't the exact answer to your question, you want to change a preference setting in iTunes (if there is such a setting).
Original script can be forund at http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=thistagthattag
Modified script is below. Start up Applescript Editor, paste it into a new window. Start up iTunes and select the tracks to modify. Click Run in the Applescript Editor. Follow the instructions.
(* Put This In That

How can I make a query by date with several TDMS files?

Hi,
I have a project that can write and read TDMS files everyday (a file for each day with date and time). There, I can import those files to excel (I choose a file and load it). But, I have a question: How can I make a query by date with those TDMS files? I'd like make a time stamp for start date and stop date, where I could compare the TDMS file dates and sum the values that are in the channels where these files are similar. For example, I save a file with "02/01/2013" name, in other day "03/01/2013", in other day "04/01/2013"... so, i'd like put in time stamp for start date "02/01/2013" file and to stop date "04/01/2013" file, than, sum all values that range with my TDMS files existing. How can I make that?
Thanks all,
Val

Hello Val_Auto.
You're Brazilian, no? Me too. = ^ - ^ =
I converted VI to version of your LabVIEW (8.5). Is attached in this reply.
This VI search all your TDMS in a range of dates and join them in a single TDMS. I hope this is what you wanted.
Query TDMS is the main VI. The TDMS VI Search changes the date format that out from calendar control (which is DD / MM / YYYY) to DD-MM-YYYY. This is because you can't name files using "/". I chose "-" but, if necessary, you should change to keep the same format of your TDMS files.
If you have any doubt as to its operation or how to make changes to adapt VI for your application, keep at your disposal.
Thank you for your contact; I hope have helped you and succeed in your application.

How can I make a graphic (scatter chart) with 1 "y", but multiple "x" (to make a multiple linear regression)?

how can I make a graphic (scatter chart) with 1 "y", but multiple "x" (to make a multiple linear regression)?

Émilie,
The default for X-Y Charts is for X values not to be shared, so it's entirely possible for you to create X-Y pair sets that have common Y-values and independent X-values.
This answer assumes, as always, that I properly interpreted your problem statement. A linear fit line for each pair set should satisfy.

How can I make Aperture share on Flickr with sRGB?

Since I upgraded to 3.3, all photos I share on Flickr have an embedded Adobe RGB profile. Changing Web Export presets has no effect; neither does any other setting I can find. How can I make Aperture share the images with sRGB instead of Adobe RGB?

If it is possible you do it by changing the print product country in the iPhoto preferences

HT204053 I just changed my apple ID, how can I make my icloud link up with my new ID?

I just changed my apple ID, how can I make my icloud link up with my new ID?

Did you simply change the primary email address of your existing AppleID at
https://appleid.apple.com/
Or, did you create a new AppleID. If you created a new AppleID, then you cannot. All you can do is use the iCloud with the old AppleID, or create a new iCloud account with the new AppleID.
If you changed the primary email address of the exisitng AppleID, you may need to uninstall the iCloud account on the iPhone and reinstall it to get it to use the new email address and password (you won't loose anything, its just there a means of resetting the cached credentials associated with the iCloud account).

How can i make my iphone 4 compatible with other itunes?

I put music on my phone using my computer and then try it with my friend's computer. It works fine everything goes well, but when i try using my computer again it makes me delete all of my music! how can i make it work with both itunes without deleting all of my music and having to start all over again??? H E L P PLEASE!

My thought exactly. I would like to know why Apple designed it this way. I think you should be able to manage your files on any computer with any product. This has been my biggest gripe about Apple. If I have a song or photo on my desktop computer and want it on my iphone great. I should also be able to take that song or photo from my iphone and put it on my laptop at work. Hmmmm.

How can I make itunes detect new music added to Music folder

How can I setup itunes to automatically detect new music added to my music folder? Under the advanced setting I currently have Itunes set to view my music folder where all my music is located. Im using Windows 7, Itunes Version 10.4.1.10. Currently I have to add new music manually and that's *****. I have over 2000 cd's that I need to rip. Please help. Thanks

If you are ripping CDs, you can rip with iTunes and the tracks will be added to your iTunes library without manual intervention.
But if you already have the files, or are using something other than iTunes to rip, you will note that iTunes does not automatically detect when new files have been placed in a folder. You can add this capability by using a 3rd party program such as iTunes Folder Watch.
