How do I change my iTunes library from albums listing alphabetically back to artist listing alphabetically.  Before the last update to iTunes, everything was listed by artist, now it all is listed by album name.  I can't find a way to return it to artist

Before the latest update to iTunes, everything was listed by artist.  All albums by the same artist were listed together.  Now they are all separated by the name of the album instead of the artist.  How do I return to the other format?

Are you viewing it in Artist view or Album view? In Album view, it should still list albums by artist name, then album name. If you're in Album view, you might be looking for Artist view.

  • How do I go back to the version before the last update?

    Restore from the backup you made prior to the last update. Or, stop using Chrome.

  • Hi, my phone was stolen a few days ago and I was waiting for it to come online to track the last known location where it was turned on. Now that my phone has been locked but i cant seem to find the last location it was online. I need the last location

    Hi, my phone was stolen a few days ago and just a few days ago the phone was online and it automatically locked itself since I've put it under lost mode and the thief probably switched off the phone immediately so that I cant locate it. Is it possible for me to have the last known location where he/she turned on the phone so that I can track it down from the last location? Thank you

    Correct.
    The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
    If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
    If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
    If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.

  • How do I revert OS X back to a time before the last update on 28th June?

    Hi.
    Last Tuesday, 28th June, I authorised Mac Update to update two things. One was something to do with my Epson printer, and the other was some sort of security update for Mac OS X itself. The update, presumably the latter part, invoked a requirement to restart my Mac.
    Since then things have not been good.
    I have noticed that the fans in my MacBook Pro are on more or less continuously, even when it is asleep. Prior to last Tuesday they hardly ever ran, even when I was using it. (According to iStat my CPU is currently 76 degrees C, and both fans are running at about 6000 rpm.)
    When I try to quit Safari it doesn't quit straight away as it used to. Instead I get the spinning ball for a while and then, after it quits I get a 'Safari quit unexpectedly' report, even though it was I who initiated the quitting...
    Several apps have been acting oddly too, such as MS Word taking ages to launch.
    So I want to revert my MacBook Pro to how it was prior to this last update. I have Time Machine enabled, but I can't work out how to get the actual OS back to a state it was on a date prior to 28th June. The OS isn't in the Apps folder, and I can't work out where it might be.
    Can someone please point me in the right direction, or is this something that Time Machine cannot do?

  • Plugin Container causes lag, how do I shut it off? It worked before the last update.

    Games worked fine, as did anything else I did. Then the new update came, and the game goes at 1/3 speed, + the rest of firefox is slower, even when the game isn't running and hasn't been opened since the last restart.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Firefox last updated

    I can't believe i am doing this, but i am UNINSTALLING FIREFOX. sorry, but i care more about my movies than my browser.
    firefox, you can fix your issues or you can GIT OUT.

  • How can I edit and delete photos from my albums? I can't find a way to delete old photos...

    Can anyone help me delete photos? There are old blurry and duplicate photos that we are unable to delete...

    If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

  • HT4927 How do I restore my iPhoto library from a time machine back up of a macbook pro to an iMac?

    My Macbook Pro is in a coma, but luckily I  backed up on the 20th May. I managed to get my itunes library back on my new iMac; but cannot figure out how to do the same with iPhoto. Any ideas out there?
    Thanks in advance!

    Again - this is not the way to do this and generally does not work - you must use TimeMachine as designed - instructions link again  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    Note especially
    Restoring data from Time Machine backups
    With Time Machine you can go "back in time" to restore files, versions of files, or your entire system. Make sure your backup drive is connected and mounted (if not, Time Machine will alert you that "Your Time Machine backup disk can't be found."
    If prompted, enter an administrator name and password to proceed with the restore.
    Restoring specific files or folders
    Choose Enter Time Machine from the Time Machine menu and the restore interface appears. You can literally see your windows as they appeared "back in time."
    You can use the timeline on the right side of the window to reach a certain point back in time (the timeline shows the times of all backups on your backup drive). If you don’t know exactly when you deleted or changed a file, you can use the back arrow to let Time Machine automatically travel through time to show you when that folder last changed.
    Note: Dates in pink indicate the data resides on your Time Machine backup device. Dates in white indicate the data resides on your Mac. In OS X Mountain Lion and Lion, portable Macs have the feature of local snapshots. See thisarticle for details.
    You can also perform a Spotlight search in the Time Machine Finder Window search field to find a file. Simply type the Spotlight search field and use the back arrow to have Time Machine search through your backups to find what you are looking for.
    Before you restore a file, you can also use Quick Look to preview a file to make sure its the one you want. Highlight the file and press the Space Bar to bring up a quick look.
    To restore, select the file/folder and click the "Restore" button. The file will automatically be copied to the desktop or appropriate folder.  If the file you are restoring has another file in the same location with the same name, you will be prompted to choose which file to keep or keep both.
    Restoring your entire system from a backup
    If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
    With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Recovery system (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility.
    Note: If "You can't restore this backup because it was created by a different model of Mac" appears when restoring a backup that was made on a different Mac, follow the onscreen instructions.
    If you are restoring a backup made by one Mac to a completely different Mac
    Important: If the backup you are about to restore is from a completely different Mac, use the Migration Assistant to transfer data from the backup, as described in the next section.
    Migrating a Time Machine backup to a new Mac
    When you buy a new Mac, you can transfer all of your applications, files, settings, and other information from a Time Machine backup you've already made.
    You will be asked if you want to transfer files when you start up your new Mac for the first time. Or, you can use theMigration Assistant (located in Applications/Utilities).
    After Migration Assistant completes the transfer and you select your existing Time Machine backup drive, you will be prompted with "Inherit Backup History". Once selected you will be able to continue to use your existing Time Machine backup on your new Mac.
    And again for detailed TM answers go to the Time Machine forum

  • Since my update, I can't adjust the volume from my keyboard...the volume keys have a locked symbol that shows when I press them.  I checked System preferences but can't find a way to get the lock off.  Thoughts?

    I can't adjust my volume from the keyboard volume controls... they seem to be locked.  I tried system preferences, but couldn't find how to "unlock" them.  Thoughts?

    Did you try unchecking this function?  It seems to work in reverse of what you would expect, or is that just my imagination?

  • How do I change my icloud account from my old email address to my new email address, the old one is no longer accessable!!

    Hi
    I changed my old email address over a year ago and my icloud still only recognises the old email address on my iphone 5, how do I go about changing it, if I do not have access to a password, to my new email address?  My iTunes is on my new email address but not my icloud account.
    For some reason it only recognises my daughter email, as we share iTunes account.
    Please could you help with what I could do to change it??

    Oops sorry, that doesn't make sense, I don't have access to my old email address, we closed the account!!  I obviously do have access to my new email address but its not letting me change to my new email address!!

  • Things my WM 6.1 phone did that I can't find a way to do with the iphone

    Hi All iphoners
    I have a small list of things that I can't find a way to do with the iphone. I was hoping that someone would be able to help me with this. I know there must be a way to do these but I just have not found it yet.
    here they are:
    Play video clips from my favorite news web sites.
    search my contacts by just typing the name from anywhere in the contact list
    Play music and sounds thru by stereo bluetooth headset
    Sync my notes and tasks from outlook
    setup different tones and alarms for new e-mail, new SMS, so on
    voice announcement of who is calling if the caller is in my contacts
    Download document to the phone, word, PDF, so on
    Mark all e-mail as read with one button
    place call from calendar if phone number is in appointment
    Beam files from one phone to another
    Picture mail
    Rotate e-mail while ready e-mail. this works for web pagers but not e-mail
    thanks for all the help

    depending on who your "favorites" are, they might have an app in the app store which includes videos

    theres a search bar at the top of the contacts list. you type, it searches.
    Play music and sounds thru by stereo bluetooth headset
    sorry, can only be achieved via devices such as the Sony TMR-BT8iP (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XRW09Y)

    all but SMS is not customizable for now. but even with SMS, you can only choose from those available.
    voice announcement of who is calling if the caller is in my contacts
    my suggestion is to set a particular ringtone for that person. OR, you can always record yourself saying that person's name, convert it to a ringtone, and use that. (if you dont know how to create your own ringtone, a quick search on this forum should help you out).
    Download document to the phone, word, PDF, so on
    Beam files from one phone to another
    look for "Air Share" in the app store.
    Picture mail
    it can, you have to do it from the photo, not email tho.
    i dont have an answer for the ones i left out. sorry. hope these help.
