How Can I Sort Playlists By Artist Name IPOD

Hello to all,
When I select a playlist on my Ipod Color, it will take me to the list of songs in song title alphabetical order. I want to have them appear in artist alphabetical order instead, how can I do this?

Hi.
Forget it, asked same question before, and it seems that you can do nothing about it than send feedback to Apple and hope it gets done in a future update-release.
It should be so easy, such a function, but it is definitely not available currently. A real pain.....
Best regards,
Peter

  • How can I sort photos by file name in Photos?

    New Photos seems to be very limiting, even compared to iPhoto.  How can I sort photos by filename?  Many photos that worked in iPhoto, can't be viewed in Photos.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Titles don't use the filename any longer, but if you must have them you might be interested in Léonie's script here.

  • How can I sort songs by song name?

    After updating my iPad, I lost the ability to sort songs by song title.  How can I get this back?  Also, when synching not all of my Playlists are exported to my iPad.  Is there also a fix for this?

    Hi Jim,
    I tried both things suggested and neither worked.  This just happened after updating. 
    Like thousands of others, I got an error message MSVCR80, and had to delete all Apple programs from my desktop and re-load iTunes. Since updating, nothing iTunes related has operated properly on my iPad, or Desktop.
    Very frustrating.  A service request to Apple results in a charge for service.  Very unfair since it is their own update that is causing the issues.
    Thanks for the suggestions.

  • How can you sort music by artist in iOS 8.02 ?!

    HOw can music be sorted by the artist in iOS 8.02 !? It only sorts by song title right now.. why not allow us to select how it is sorted.. like every other NORMAL application in the world?!

    Absolutely no help whatsoever.
    IT simply say "if" the More button is available.. then you can have options... well, there is NO More button available?!
    SO.. how do we get this mystical magical 'More' button!?
    AS an aside, iOS 8 IMHO has aTON of little bugs that make it kinky and frustrating to use.

  • I just bought an ipod classic and synched with itunes.  The main part showed up on ipod but not the playlists.  How can I get playlist to appear on ipod.  Thanks!

    I bought a new ipod classic.  When attempting to synch it made me update itunes to the latest version (there may be a more current one now.)  I did this and when I synched to ipod everything showed up except the playlists.  How do I get the playlist to synch to ipod as well?  Thanks!

    Connect it to your computer and restore it as a new device. Then chose what music you want to sync with it and do so just like your Touch does.

  • How can i transfer playlists between 2 different ipods?

    I have two iPod Nano (3 gen). One of them my daughter happened to drop into a pool so the screen stopped working.

    I have tried to use the "Export playlist" / "Import Playlist" option but that dosent work at all? Or is itunes so (sorry) "Stupid" made that we have to make new playlist on the fully functional iPod and ad song after song, it will take hours to make the lists identical, there must be som easier way?

    Both iPod is synced recently with the same library.
    When i try to Export the playlists from my doughter's iPod the exported files are empty no matter what file type I choose. So when i import the file the playlist are being added to my iTunes library but with no song in it at all..

  • How can i sort folders by Artists and Albums

    Hello.
    I'm new to Apple and as much as i would love to use it they make things so dark COMPLICATED transitioning from a Windows where they make everything so simple and clean.
    Can anyone please tell me that there IS a way to sort all my music folders by artists, albums, and such.
    on windows. if i click on a folder/album it will open up and all the songs of that album will be there and i can sort them by the artist.
    Here on apple, these stupid folders can only be sorted by DATE MODIFIED, SIZE, KIND, and such. It is so FRUSRTATING!!
    If there is a way to sort my folders the WAY i want to with the numerous options like Windows has available, can someone PLEASE show me.
    Thank you!

    You're kidding right? Windows makes things easier? You can sort by name in any Finder window, but if you're dealing with Music you should be using iTunes.

  • How can I sort photos by file name on my IPAD?

    I have sorted all my photos by filename (on a windows PC). After downloading the photos to my IPAD they are sorted by shooting date. This is for sure not what I wanted. Does anybody know how I can solve this (sort my photos on filename!)? Thanks.

    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4221 :
    If you are using Windows, or are not using iPhoto or Aperture on Mac OS X, you must change the Date Taken of photos to change their sorting on your device. Third-party photo-management software may be able to do this.

  • How can i sort music by artist in the store?

    I want to browse the store by artists? why cant this be done, im so tired of seeing the popular artists.  sometimes i just want to browse the store by artist.  If you know what genre you want to look in, but dont know the artist or group name, just a simple list alphabetically or artist or groups would be cool to look at.
    cheers

    Hi StarJacker,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Currently, the only way to search by artist is to type the artist's name in the search field.
    If you click on iTunes > Provide iTunes Feedback your feature request will be reviewed by the folks who design the website.
    Cheers,

  • How can I export playlists (music) from my iPod Touch to a sd card

    When i bought my car (AUDI A6) 2 years ago I forgot to order an iPod connection. My question is how to transfer the music from my iPod to a sd card and at the same time convert it into a format which enables me to use the sd card in my car audio system? Would guess I need conversion into mp3 or mpeg.
    Wait for help!
    Regards
    Thomas

    If you go to the File tab in itunes, under Library there is an option to export your library and also one for backing it up. There are many programs that will convert non-DRM music to different formats.

  • How can I sort files in a folder by name?

    How can I sort files in a folder by name? iFS first sort files that starts with upper-case letter and then files with lower-case letter.
    Like:
    A_file
    B_file
    a_file
    b_file
    I want:
    A-file
    a_file
    B_file
    b_file
    This doesn't help:
    String[] sort_attributes = {"NAME"};
    boolean [] sort_orders = {true};
    SortSpecification sort = new SortSpecification(sort_attributes, sort_orders);
    currentFolder.setSortSpecification(sort);
    Do I have to get all items in a folder and then sort them?
    /Elin

    I do not think there is a way to do that without add-ons
    There are a couple of workarounds I am aware of
    * Add the bookmarks manually in the bookmarks library and choose the position. That is using Show all bookmarks -> open required folder -> select a position and right click -> add new bookmark <br />Rather a slow and clumsy process
    * Sort a folder and copy it. If you sort the folder contents then copy and paste them they remain in that order when pasted.
    There are add-ons but I have not tried them. For example
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/simplesort-bookmarks/
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/auto-sort-bookmarks/
    There will be others available and take note of the advice to backup bookmarks manaully.

  • When creating a photo book how can I sort the photos shown by file name?

    I am creating a photo book. The photos shown in the right hand column appear out-of-order. How do I sort them by file name? The album in iPhoto the book is based on is sorted by file name.

    You can not - they are soreted by date
    --  the only solution I have seen is to put them in an album sorted the way you and and then use the batch cnage command to redate them with a small invrement between so a data sort matches your desired sort  --  I personally do not want to redate a bunch of my photos nor do i want  to have to go through and un-re- date a bunch
    suggest a change to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

  • How can I sort the Pictures in an Album by Name?

    I am updated my Photo App on OSX 10.10.2. All my Albums are imported fine, but how I can sort the Pictures in one Album by name? I just found the option for the Albums.

    Currently you can sort regular albums manually or by date; Smart Albums only by date; see How can you sort Album or Smart Album photos?
