IPad Air music app always defaults to Genius Mixes

Apologies if this has been discussed and solved in a previous discussion but I can't trace it.
I have an iPad Air and when I select the "Music" app it the always defaults to Genius Mixes which have somehow been created by Apple albeit from my own music. I then have to tap on one of the other tabs like Artists or Albums to proceed. Even I left my iPad on Artists, next time I switch on and go to "Music" once again it defaults to Genius Mixes. How do I stop this happening please? It's not a great iss
BTW, I don't have iTunes Match and Genius is switched off in iTunes on my PC.
Thanks.
Brian.

Wow thanks James I didn't realise it was possible to edit and therefore rearrange the icons at the bottom. Because Genius was at position #1 I suppose it always defaulted to that (perhaps!). Anyway I've moved it well along the line of icons and now when I select Music it starts at position #1 which is now Albums.
Thanks so much.
Well, I had not thought about the icon position controlling the default. Albums is in my #1 position and it is pretty much the only view I use on a regular basis.
Glad you got it sorted out.

  • Ipad music app always starts with genius mixes

    I am usind an iPad mini 16GB with iOS8 running the newest version. Every time I start the music app it fires up with the genius mix overview and not my last selection, e.g. artists listing. I subscribed to iTunes match with genius enabled.
    I clearly recall iOS7 not acting like this. So my question is: Is this a bug or a feature or am I missing something.
    THanks in advance, Sascha

    Hi Caph1,
    If you are having issues with your iPad's Music application always launching to the genius mix screen, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

  • I cannot find my downloaded podcasts in my iPad Air music app. Where do I click next?

    Where are my recently downloaded podcasts in my iPad Air?  I have the Podcast App; I went to the Music App. as one person suggested and the inquiring party was successful.  I'm missing a step here.

    If you downloaded them using the IOS Podcasts app they will be in there.  Open Podcasts and then select "My Podcasts" found in the lower left part of the screen.  You should now see them.  Many other apps also download podcasts.  For instance I download a lot of radio station podcasts using the radio app TuneIn Radio.  The only way to play them back is to use TuneIn.  The IOS app "Podcasts" has no idea they exist.

    Hello mercsbay,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post it appears that your iPad is in recovery mode and needs to be restored to its factory settings using iTunes.  To do this please follow the directions in the articles below.
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

  • IPad Air Included Apps

    I just received my new iPad Air. I had understood that it came with several apps including: Pages, Numbers and Keynote, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Did I misunderstand the promos? I use a Dell XPS desktop running Windows 7.

    Maybe try one last thing before contacting Apple:
    Log out of the iTunes Store on your device:
    Settings>iTunes & App Store...tap your Apple ID, then select "Sign Out"
    Reset your device:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
    After the device has restarted, sign back in to the App Store as above. Try to download the apps again.

    Having searched older posts it appers I am not the only one looking for Internet radio on iOS devices; the answer is this Mac OS X iTunes feature is not in the iOS 7 Radio app or elsewhere on iOS7.  People suggested downloading TuneIn Radio (free with over 50,000 stations).

  • Hi - Will Ipad Air word apps convert to .doc or .docx?

    Thanks

    I have been a microsoft user most of my life.  I have decided to buy an ipad air and I need to know whether its word programme will convert to both .doc and docx
    There is no Word program for the iPad.  Microsoft hasn't made one.  But Pages can read and write most Word files:

  • Problems with iPad 2 Music.app

    So I am on 5.0.1. Fairly recently I have had problems with the music app on my iPad 2. It doesn't happen with every album/song, but sometimes when I transfer an album/song to the iPad, in the music app I can't find that album under the heading for that artist in the music app. If I go to albums instead of artists in the music app, I can find the album and play it no problem and 1. When I am scrolling through my album and I see that album, it doesn't have the artists name under it like most of the others do and 2. It's weird because when I play a song and I make the album art full screen, up top where it usually says the artist, it does say the artist name and also when I am looking through my iPads music on the computer, it says the artist name there also. Anyway anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

    I know I should just go onto the computer and delete them from there, but it's still annoying.
    You don't have to delete music on your computer to remove music from an iPod, iPhone, or iPad. If you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes and you have Sync Only Checked Songs and Video selected under the Summary tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes, you can uncheck the songs in your iTunes library or in the selected playlist in iTunes that you want removed from the iPad followed by a sync.
    Any change after powering your iPad off and on and/or after a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?
    If not and you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes, deselect Sync Music followed by a sync. This should remove all music from your iPad. Follow this by reselecting Sync Music making your selections below followed by another sync to re-transfer the music back to the iPad.

  • IPad Air Mail App & Exchange 2013

    Hi all,
    My iPad Air (iOS 7.1.1) Mail App was setup with our work Exchange 2010 and it worked with no problem. Just today they upgrade to Exchange 2013 it stopped connecting. I deleted the account (after searching the internet) and trying to recreate it with no success it says "Unable to verify account information"
    Any idea how to solve this.
    FYI, my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.3) working with no problem with Exchange 2010 and the new Exchange 2013, I just Quit the Mail prog and run it.
    TIA

    To delete an email account, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > [your account] and find "Delete account" toward the bottom.
    Regarding printers, make sure you use an AirPrint printer.  They are listed here, along with instructions:

  • My iPad Air iMessage app froze and would not budge!

    iPad Air 1, iOS 8.2.  The iMessage app suddenly froze and no touching could unfreeze it.

    Force close the Messages app and reset your iPad. You will not lose any data.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    In order to reset your iPad, hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen after which time you can release the buttons and let the iPad start up.

  • Just upgraded to iOS5 on iPad. Music app and mail does not work properly.

    Just upgraded iPad2 to iOS5. Music app does not work properly. When I select a song to play, it plays a different song. Sometimes, it just stops playing songs, other times, it shuffles songs.
    Not sure whats going on.
    Worked fine using iOS4.3.5.
    Synced the iPad to iCloud. enabled mail. It shows under settings that the iCloud mail is setup, but the mail does not appear in the mail app. Not sure whats happening with these functions on iOS5.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • Music app always shows playlist tab.

    iPad mini 3, latest iOS.
    Every time I open Music app, it shows the last tab I used previous time for a moment, then automatically switches to playlist tab. Is that a bug or some feature? I don'have any playlists yet, so I don't need this tab for now.
    Thanks in advance!

    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great troubleshooting recommendations for initial troubleshooting of your issue:
    iOS: Understanding multitasking
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4211
    When performing Step 2, I would recommend closing all open apps. If restarting doesn't help with Step 3, try the recommended resetting as well:
    If an app doesn't respond to your input, or doesn't perform as expected, do the following, testing after each step:
    Check for app updates.
    Force the app to close.
    Restart your device.
    Update your iOS device.
