I need help in the way my Itunes Library shows on my Windows PC

I am a novice. I liked the way Itunes sorted my Library which was by Artist, album, and the had the tracks in order. However, I did something and now I cannot get it to restore that way. I can get any one (like album) but then I canot get tracks in order ie it will do all the 1's and then all the two's etc... I just want it to be simple
Thanks anyone

  • Need help have lost my entire itunes library

    Hi, i put my ipod on charge through my usb, my music is on my ipod, but my computer is telling me that the ipod is synced with another itunes library. do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this itunes library, i have only synced with this one computer please help!!!

    Hello ashme1985,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I don't know why your iPod is doing exactly, but I do know that if the music on your iPod is no longer in your iTunes library, you'll need to copy it back over to it. I say this because your only solution now is to *Erase and Sync* as it says.
    See this article for instructions on how to copy the music back over to your Windows machine.

  • Need help re-arranging tracks in iTunes Library and on iPod nano

    Hi. I'm currenty ripping my father-in-laws 60 disc set of the complete audio Bible onto to his iPod nano for him. All was going well for discs 1 through 22. All the CD info (track names, album title, etc) had been found for all discs, and as I ripped the CD's in the proper order, the tracks were holding they're proper order in my iTunes Library and on the ipod nano as I updated it occasionally. When I ripped disc 23 (I Chronicles 19 through II Chronicles 10) onto my computer, I didnt notice that iTunes was unable to retrieve the CD info for that disc, so it ripped all the tracks as "Track 1," "Track 2," etc. It wasnt untill after I finished ripping discs 24 through 29 that I noticed the error. I re-named all the tracks following the proper spelling, capatalization, etc as all the other discs had used, and updated the artist, album, and genre fields exactly as the other discs, assuming that as soon as I did that iTunes would properly arrange the tracks between I Chronicles 18 and II Chronicles 11 in my iTunes Library. Instead it stuck all my newly renamed tracks before Genesis 1, the first track. I updated the nano hoping they would arrange properly on it, but it didnt. I Chronicles 19 through II Chronicles 10 come before Genesis 1. I've been playing around in iTunes trying to figure out how to rearrange tracks in my Library, but havent been able to figure out how. Any help would be appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    You may need to set the track number, and sort by that, since these are not in alphabetical order.
    Right click where it says Name in iTunes (on top of the song list). Put a check mark next to/click Track Number. See if the other songs have track numbers. They may be sorted by that. If so, you'd have to add track numbers to all those other tracks, and then sort by that (right click a song, go to get info, click the info tab, and add the track number).
    If it's not track number, try and find out what they are being sorted by.

  • TS2972 Why don't all the movies in iTunes library show up on Apple TV?

    I have five movies that I purchase from the iTunes Store in my iTunes library.  They all show up on Apple TV except for "Fantastic Mr. Fox" which does not.  Any guesses why not?

    If this is a silver AppleTV ensure the checkbox next to the Movie in the main library media categories is ticked.
    If not, could it have been purchased under a different AppleID?

  • Need Help!  I lost entire itunes library after copying "My Music" folder to an external hard drive.

    I was recently hire by one of my sisters friends to set up a new computer and to repair wireless router.  The client asked me to copy music files from their old computer to an external hard drive so that they could be transfered to the new computer. So I connected the external hard drive to the old computer and copyed the entire "My Music" folder to it.  I never deleted files from the old computer. I did however uninstall a few applications at the clients request such as Microsoft Office and Kodak EasyShare which have nothing to do with itunes.  I got a call from the client a few hours later stating that their entire itunes music library is no longer there.  I do not have much experince with itunes this just doesnt make any sense to me.  I am sure the music is there but itunes is not pulling it up.   Can someone please tell me how to fix this problem?
    Thanks so much

  • I need help identifying and removing annoying gadget that shows all open windows and applications when I mouse over a corner.

    It seemed like a good idea at the time. Some time ago I installed a gadget (doesn't seem to be an item in my Applications folder) which, when I mouse-over the lower-left corner of my screen, brings up a screen showing reduced-size versions of all open application windows and Finder windows. I've tried to identify what it is, and where it is located, so I can remove it, but to no avail.
    I'd really appreciate any help getting rid of this thing. Thanks!

    Hi Paul,
    Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.

  • I need to transfer music from another itunes library to my current. my last computer crashed and i do not want to lose all of the music stored on my nano. Please help!

    I need to transfer music from another itunes library. My last compter hard drive failed. I have several hours of songs and I don't want to lose these. Is there a way to transfer music from another libray to current? I have recovered the purchased music but would like to transfer other. I have a mini without a disc drive so it makes loading the same music difficult. Please help.

  • HT5312 i need help with the security questions is there some way to get you to remind me what they were from e-mail or other wise

    I need help with the security Questions is there some way to get you to remember them by e-mail of other wise

    Read the HT5312 page that you posted from, it has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

    I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

    You cannot do that.  The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address.  The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well).  You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
    You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
    I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?

  • Need some help understanding the way materialized views are applied through

    Hi, I need some help understanding the way materialized views are applied through adpatch.
    In patch 1, we have a mv with build mode immediate. When applying it PTS hang due to pool performance of mv refresh.
    So we provide patch 2, with that mv build mode deferred, hoping it'll go through. But patch 2 hang too on the same mv.
    How does this work? Is that because mv already exists in the database with build immediate, patch 2 will force it to refresh first before changing build mode? How to get over this?
    Thanks,
    Wei

    Hi Hussein,
    Thank you for the response.
    Application release is 11.5.10.
    Patch 1 is MSC11510: 8639586 ASCP ENGINE RUP#38 PATCH FOR 11.5.10 BRANCH
    Patch 2 is MSC11510: 9001833 APCC MSC_PHUB_CUSTOMERS_MV WORKER IS STUCK ON "DB FILE SEQUENTIAL READ" 12 HOURS
    The MV is APPS.MSC_PHUB_CUSTOMERS_MV
    This happens at customer environment but not reproducable in our internal environment, as our testing data is much smaller.
    Taking closer look in the logs, I saw actually when applying both patch 1 and patch 2, MV doesn't exist in the database. So seems my previous assumption is wrong. Still, strange that patch 2 contains only one file which is the MV.xdf, it took 7 hours and finally got killed.

  • *** Need help recovering music on iPod/iTunes ***

    * Need help recovering music on iPod/iTunes *
    I bought my iPod 30G when it first came out back in the day. With the protective case it looks like a Walkman, if you know what that is. The new ones are half the thickness of my old skool one. lol!
    Anyway, years ago I accidently uploaded a virus in both my PC and laptop. Yeah, real *******. Well, the person who restored my computers couldn't save my music. I still have the iPod but my library on iTunes is gone. If I try to update my iPod in either computer it will erase every song I have on it and only upload the songs/album I'm trying to add. I'm told that this is something Apple did to prevent file sharing, blah, blah, blah...
    Does anyone know a way around it? I keep buying CDs just not able to load them into my iPod thru iTunes.

    Hello yourantihero,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    There are several ways you can pull the music off your iPod and onto iTunes. The first link below provides step-by-step instructions for the direct method if you have a PC as well as a few third party applications (for both the Mac and PC) if you choose to go that route instead. You can also do a simple Google search for "copy music from iPod to computer" and you should receive a number of sites that can help you out.
    Just make sure that when you have your iPod plugged into your computer, that you don't hit "Erase and Sync" before completing the task of copying your music over.
    Also, if you have any purchased music, you will probably have to re-authorize your computer by heading to the Store drop down menu and choosing "Authorize computer."
