How can I organise playlist by album?

Hi everyone,
To help organise my music in iTunes, I created some smart playlists. However, because I didn't want to see a long list of tracks, I chose to have an 'album' view. So, if I click on my smart playlist called 'Soundtracks', I see all my soundtrack albums - as albums.
Trouble is, when I sync to i-Pod, if I go to my 'Soundtracks' play list, I just get an alphabetically sorted list of 5,000+ tracks.
How can I make it so that when I go to a playlist on my i-Pod, I see an album view - like I have it in iTunes - and not just a humungous list of tracks?
Cheers

Hi Jeff,
OK, I could look like a fool here. My 30GB ipod was, I'm sure, 5th generation. Earlier this year I changed to an 80GB one. I assumed it was also 5th gen because it looks almost exactly the same outide. But maybe it's a 'classic' instead. It looks like that on Amazon, anyway. (I may be exposing some ipod ignorance here.) I know my new ipod supports Cover Flow (which my old one didn;t.)
If my new ipod actually is a 'classic', then how would I do it?
Cheers

  • How can I see playlist artwork?

    How can I see playlist artwork? I know cover flow is gone (stupid decision) but can I see the small album covers at the side like you used to be able to?

    At first I couldn't find what icon you were talking about. Then I clicked on a different playlist, and it appeared! This icon does not appear when you choose a "genius" created playlist. It only appears on playlists that I have manually created.
    Stupid, as far as I'm concerned.
    Now I see that I can't have more than one playlist opened...which I often do...

  • HT201317 I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    The new ios version of iPhoto allows sharing.  Here's a blurb from Apple's web site:
    There’s the old way of creating photo galleries, then there’s the iPhoto way. Select a group of photos and iPhoto automatically flows them into a beautiful journal that’s fun to personalize and share online. Touch a photo to make it bigger or smaller. Or drag it to a different spot on the screen. iPhoto adjusts the page around whatever you’re doing, so your journal always looks great. You can even add captions, maps, dates, and weather — giving family and friends the big picture at a glance.
    More things you can do:
    With iPhoto, there’s more than one way to share a photo. Post pictures directly to Facebook, Flickr, or Twitter. Play an impromptu slideshow on your iPad or iPhone. Or stream photos to your HDTV to give your big moments room to shine.
    I have not used ios version of iPhoto to share "journals" and I'm not sure this is part of iCloud or not.  You'll have to do a google search on "ios iphoto" and read up of this journal thing.  As far as I know, this is the only way of sharing photos.  I'm not sure whether other friends use a browser to view these journals or whether they need something special.  Any way - search around to find answers.

  • How can I delete a photo album from my IPad?

    How can I delete a photo album from my I Pad?

    You can turn off photo stream via Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream 'off' , I don't think that it is possible to remove individual photo stream photos. From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486 :
    Individual photos cannot be deleted from your Photo Stream. You can, however, delete all the photos in your Photo Stream by clicking the Reset Photo Stream button in your account at icloud.com. The Reset Photo Stream button will instantly delete all Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud, but it will not remove any Photo Stream photos that have already been pushed to your devices.
    After deleting the photos from your Photo Stream in iCloud, you can remove the Photo Stream photos from your devices as follows:
    On your iOS devices, go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream and turn Photo Stream off. This will delete all the photos from your Photo Stream album. If there are any photos you want to keep on your device, make sure to add them to an album or save them to your Camera Roll first.

  • How can i create a new album picture in iphone 4g ?

    hi to evryone
    how can i create a new album picture in iphone 4g ??
    thanks

    Hello,
    As I understand, you would like to know how to create photo albums on your iPhone? This is possible only by first moving your photos onto your Mac or PC.
    On the Mac use iPhoto to sort your pictures into albums then sync them back onto the phone via iTunes.
    On the PC sort your photos using folders or software like Adobe Photoshop Elements then sync them back onto the phone via iTunes.
    Hope this helps

    To clarify, it's the problem of inconsistency that persists. That is, the application displays fine on some XP computers, but not on others.

  • How can you get a compilation album to show up as one album rather than be split up but song and artist?

    how can you get a compilation album to show up as one album rather than be split up by song and artist? I've got loads of albums on iTunes that are compliations and they are all mixed up by track/ artist. Even when you click 'show album' it still just shows the album title and then the artist in alphabetical order - so the album is replicated several times
    Can anyone tell me how to amalgamate compliation albums please?

  • How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

    How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

    If you sync with the new computer it will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with the selected content of the new computer.
    The pics that you have taken with the iphone should be imported regularly to your computer as you would with any digital camera.  You can then organize them and sync them back to the iphone if you wish.
    If you have had itunes perform a backup on the new computer, you should get the pics taken with the iphone back, but I would import them before trying anything.

    If these playlists are still on your iPod, check out this older thread on how to export playlists from your iPod via iTunes.

  • How can I copy a iPhoto album onto a flashdrive along with the photo information?

    How can i copy an iPhoto album to a flashdrive along with photo information, in order to send it to a friend please?

    File -> Export. In the resulting dialogue you can choose to export the Original. Or, if you choose to export a Jpeg you can get the edited version. Check the boxes at 'Keywords and Descriptions' and 'Places Information' and you'll get the metadata, if that's what you mean by "photo information"
