I would like to go into my Artists section and then sort the songs by RATINGS....

There is no longer any way to SORT MY SONGS... It only sorts the albums. which I RARELY rate.
I should be able to go into Artists... type the name of my favorite artist in...  Nirvana for example. Then SORT BY RATING. Now I am seeing all my favorite songs, IN ORDER by my favorite band. This is the BEST way to isolate your favorite songs on an album. Otherwise I have to create a playlist for EVERY SINGLE ALBUM. Pain in the ***... PLEASE put the functionality of SORT BY RATING, DATE, ETC... back into Albums, Artists, Playlists...Genres... etc... it makes functionality of findins, selecting and sorting your music FAR MORE POWERFUL. I KNOW there are internal conflicts at Apple about this. Please put it back.

Same way it works with any computer...when you delete something, the data isn't actually deleted, just the pointers to the data. As you use your device, the data gets overwritten, since the iOS views it as "free" space..
If you want the data truly gone, you need to erase your phone. Same way it works on any computer.

  • I would like to share my photo's titles and descriptions in the photo streams into which I place these carefully labeled photos. I do this so clients can see the names of the things they're swiping through. Is this even possible?

  • I just backed up my mac to an external hard drive using Time Machine. What would happen if I turn Time Machine off and then plug the external hard drive back into my computer?

    I just backed up my mac to an external hard drive using Time Machine. What would happen if I turn Time Machine off and then plug the external hard drive back into my computer?
    What I am ultimately wanting to do is make more room on my computer by backing up all of my files onto the external hard drive and then deleting them off of my computer. However, neededing to be able to retrieve them from the external hard drive later down the road.
    From what I have read and am trying to understand, is that I probably shouldn't have used time machine. I need to use the external hard drive like a basic flash drive where I can put things on and get things off without having it automatically update through time machine everytime I connect it to my computer.
    Not tech savvy at all and barely understand basics. I need very simple and easy to understand explanations.

    BIG BIG MISTAKE ..... youre making a linchpin deathtrap for your data trying to shove everything on a single fragile HD.
    Dont suffer the tragedy other people make, buy another or 2 more HD, theyre cheap as dust.
    The number of people who have experienced terror by having a single external HD backup is enormous.  One failure that WILL HAPPEN, and kaput,......all gone!
    Dont do it, its all about redundancy, redundancy, redundancy.
    follow here:
    Methodology to protect your data. Backups vs. Archives. Long-term data protection
    Deleting them off your computer is fine....having only ONE copy is extremely BAD.
    The Tragedy that will be, the tragedy that never should be
    Always presume correctly that your data is priceless and takes a very long time to create and often is irreplaceable. Always presume accurately that hard drives are extremely cheap, and you have no excuse not to have multiple redundant copies of your data copied on hard drives and squirreled away several places, lockboxes, safes, fireboxes, offsite and otherwise.
    Hard drives aren't prone to failure…hard drives are guaranteed to fail (the very same is true of SSD). Hard drives dont die when aged, hard drives die at any age, and peak in death when young and slowly increase in risk as they age.
    Never practice at any time for any reason the false premise and unreal sense of security in thinking your data is safe on any single external hard drive. This is never the case and has proven to be the single most common horrible tragedy of data loss that exists.
    Many 100s of millions of hours of lost work and data are lost each year due to this single common false security. This is an unnatural disaster that can avoid by making all data redundant and then redundant again. If you let a $60 additional redundant hard drive and 3 hours of copying stand between you and years of work, then you've made a fundamental mistake countless 1000s of people each year have come to regret.

    Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
    Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

  • I am going bloody mad as three times now I have reloaded my iphone 4 with 30 gigs of music and when I even try and add a new album, it goes into massive sync mode and then looses the lot! I retore to earlier that day and practically nothing.

    I have now 3 times added nearly 30 gigs of music onto this **** Iphone 4, then when it decides by itself to sync it goes into a massive re-sync then looses the lot. I restore it and in iTunes It shows that the music is on my phone, but nothing works and then it reverts to about 60megs of music and the **** lot has gone again. I am really getting upset that I can spend 12 hours adding the music back on only for it all to disappear in 12 seconds and wont come back again. I have manage music and videos ticked and all the music is ticked in my library, I have tried un-ticking and re-ticking but it simply does not work. please can anyone help as I am at the point of binning Apple for Samsung as its happening to lots of people I know with nothing coming from Apple on why?
    Thanks
    Steve

    You have fallen for the great Verizon Wireless Lie, most customers don't use over 2Gb and its a better plan, and unlimited is unsustainable yada yada yada.
    However your choices were getting new devices for cheap so if you paid full price for your device at $700 each, you would have kept unlimited and paid no $30 upgrade fee. Per line.
    Now add up the additional cost of that data usage and it is way over the cost of what paying full price would have cost you.
    and being in a contract with an early termination fee it all adds up.
    Verizon claims unlimited data is unsustainable, but you can see its sustainable only when you get charged mucho bucks in $10-$15 overages per GB.
    Good Luck

  • I can no longer change my song names like i used to. i use to be able to right click and go to "get info" and then change the song name, artist and album, now i can't is there any other way to change the songs name and info

    When I get songs and put them on my itunes accout on my computer I used to be able to rename them right clicking, going to "get info" and then renaming everything I wanted like song name, album and artwork. I also use to be able to click on the song then click and hold on it and be able to rename it. But all the songs I have gotten after the last update have not been able to be renamed in any of the old ways I use to be able to. Is there any other way to rename songs because I know I can't undo updates and that seems to be whats causing it.
    Thankyou for your time

    You are describing an iTunes problem, not an iPod touch problem. Try posing in the iTunes forum.

  • After the latest update, I no longer have control with MSN. I would like to take this latest version off and replace with the older version. How do I do that?

    After loading the latest version of Firefox, I no longer have any control in setting up my MSN window which is my home page.

    hello dawn, please be aware that there are malicious websites out there which will trigger fake update notices/popups which try to trick you into downloading software bundled with adware. please never click on such websites or execute such files on offer - updates are handled automatically by firefox and you don't have to download any file for it (you can always manually check if you're up-to-date by going to ''firefox > help > about firefox'').
    please try these steps to regain your firefox:
    # [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
    # afterwards go to firefox > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
    # go to the windows control panel and remove all software recently installed where you don't know which purpose it has or otherwise looks suspicious.
    # finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

  • I would like to play an animation by click and then play reversed by clicking again...

    ...like a menu popping out and going back again. How is this possible? Probably very simple.

    Elaine,
    What's the avantage of using sym.setVariable and getVariable rather than the simple code below? Isn't it basically the same?
    // on off button example
    var toggle = true,
    sym.$("btn").click(function(){
              if (toggle){
                        toggle=false;
                        sym.$('Ellipse').hide();
                        sym.$('btn').html('Off');
              else{
                        sym.$('Ellipse').show();
                        toggle=true;
                        sym.$('btn').html('On');

  • I want to keep a list on my ipod of the books I've read.  I would like to enter them on my computer and transfer that to my iPod.  Is there an app that I can use to accomplish that?

    I want to keep a list on my ipod of the books I've read.  I would like to enter them on my computer and then sync them with my ipod touch. 
    Is there an app that I can do that with?

    There are many note-taking apps available in the iTunes Store that can be synched between a computer and an iPod in one way or another, many from iTunes and some from on-line services such as Dropbox. GoodReader is one I use, but there are many others. Alternatively, if you have a Mac with OS X 10.7 you could use Pages on the computer and iPod and sync with iCloud (some other apps use iCloud for synching as well). Or you can just email a text document to yourself and open that on your iPod. 
    Regards.

  • HT1473 I have two separate iTunes libraries on different computers and I would like to compact into one. But I cannot without completely erasing one of the libraries. How can I do this without deleting anything?

    Copy the content from one computer to another and import the media into iTunes.
    Any playlists, playcounts, etc on the computer the content is being moved from will be lost.

  • I am looking for an application that would allow me to open a word doc, and take notes in the .doc using a stylus pen.  I'd then like to convert those notes to text, and then be able to copy / paste those notes into an email.  Does this app exist?

    I don't believe it will open a Word document, but Writepad allows for handwritten conversion of notes to text and then to email. Might help you some of the way...

  • What is the earliest prior period that you would like to enter into SAP B1

    Can anyone please explain the need of gathering the following information in a BBP for SAP B1 2007B?
    "What is the earliest prior period that you would like to enter into SAP Business One to allow for Comparative Financial Statements?"

    If you want to be able to create year over year reports, create budgets based on history, etc. you can't just start with opening balances for your GL accounts. You need to create past periods and load history amounts. That's all.
    My clients typically want to be able to answer questions like 'How much higher (or lower) are sales this month than sales in the same month last year?' So for a client who 'went live' with SAP on January 1, 2009, I would create 12 periods for 2008 and enter their monthly balances for their GL accounts.
