How do you sort music in itunes?

I've purchased a few seasons of a tv show on iTunes but when they make it to my library, they're all in some random order. Like, 13 comes before 11, 10 comes before 1, and so on... Is there some way to sort the episodes? I tried just dragging and dropping between episodes, but Itunes doesn't allow that. I also tried clicking "name" at the top of the screen, but that included every single episode I had downloaded in total (regardless of what show it was), and sorted it as one bif list. How do I make it so that, say for example, the office season three episodes are displayed from 1-13 instead of any random order?

ben7072 - I just found this on the discussions board: "Under View Options in the View menu, check the box that says Artist. Then rearrange your shows by Artist instead of Show."
It does work. Obviously, the Artist needs to be the same a Show for it to truly fix our problem here... this is the case for me.
I'd still like to know what the real problem is though...

  • How do you move music from iTunes on a pc to ipad2

    How do you move music from iTunes on a pc to an ipad2?

    Connect your iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes under 'Devices'. On the right-hand side there should then be a series of tabs, one of which is Music - select that and you should be able to select which of your computer's iTunes music to sync to the Music app on the iPad, and then sync/apply that selection.
    This page refers specifically to the iPod and iPhone, but the principle is the same for the iPad : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351

    How do you move music from itunes in a XP computer to an iPhone 5?

    You copy the content of your iTunes Library to the iPhone by connecting to the iPhone to your computer, using the USB lead that came wiht the phone, and allowing iTunes and the iPhone to Sync with one another.
    This will leave the content in your iTunes Library. An iPhone (or iPod) is not desinged to be the only location for your music (or other content). The idea is that the iPhone (or iPod) has a copy of the Library.

    how do you download music from itunes on pc to itunes on mac

    If both computers are on the same network, you could just mount the Windows machine and drag and drop the songs from the PC to your Mac, and then add them to your Mac iTunes Library by importing.
    That's the simplest way I know...

    If you want to delete music from your itunes library (and computer): Highlight the song, hold down the command key, press delete. You should get a confirmation message.
    If you want to find your music files and move them to another drive (for example) then: Search your mac for "Itunes Media" (shortcut is command+space bar) then go into your Music folder.

  • How do I sort music in iTunes when played from iPhone?

    Okay, so I've been using my iPhone to basically carry music around and play it on different computers, right?  Just turn on manual sync and then I can play music on iTunes straight from my music library without needing to have it in my computer's iTunes library.  The problem is that all the music is out of order, and the column headers at the top that should be clickable to choose how you want the music to be sorted are all greyed out and unclickable.  What I want is for my music to be sorted by Album Title followed by Track Number.  Used to be that it was sorted by Artist then Track Number, which usually ended up okay as long as the album only had one artist.  But recently, iTunes just completely arbitrarily changed itself to sorting by Song Title, which is screwing everything up.  Since the sorting order can obviously be changed, how do I get iTunes to sort the music from my iPhone in a sensible fashion?

  • How do you import music onto ITUNES if you have two IPODS

    Question: I have two IPODS. I can't seem to figure out how to import all the music on my old IPOD onto ITUNES so I can put new music in my library as well as m new IPOD. Can you please help! Also, when I plug in my old IPOD it says it is in WIndows format. Is this a problem.
    Thanks,

    Macs can read Windows formatting so you should have no problem using your iPod with your Macbook. One proviso is that up until now Apple has only fully supported using the iPod shuffle in FAT32 format on Mac (unless the range has been expanded to include the iPhone and the iPod Touch which I've no experience of). What this means effectively is that if you need to apply a firmware update for your iPod and you wanted to maintain the Windows format you would have to do it on a PC. If you were to try and update a Windows based iPod on a Mac it would be restored and reformatted to the Mac file system and have the Mac firmware installed.
    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. This is just a small selection of what's available, you can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    Senuti Mac Only
    PodView Mac Only
    PodWorks Mac Only
    iPodDisk PPC Mac Only (experimental version available for Intel Macs)
    TuneAid Mac only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac & Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac & Windows
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • How do you transfer music from iTunes to someone else iPhone

    I have music in iTunes from my iPhone, however, I want to transfer or sync this music to someone's iPhone - can this be done and how?

    It cannot be done (legally), as you own the music, not the other person. They will have to buy the music from iTunes, the same way you did.
    Unless, of course, it is not music purchased from the iTunes store. Then you could have them copy the music file to their computer and sync it to their iPhone from their computer.

  • 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.

  • How do you play music in itunes from an external drive?

    if the library and itunes folder are on the external drive, how do you play the songs from there through a laptop? I have gotten that dreaded "original file not found" message over and over again. Thanks.

    Hold down the Shift key while launching iTunes. You'll be given a dialog box where you can select the iTunes library you want to use. Navigate to and select the iTunes folder in it's new location.
