ITunes version 6.0 now "the" band listed under letter "t"

After I downloaded the newest version of iTunes, all bands that have a "The" in their name, are listed under the letter "t" and not under their actual name. This wasn't the case with the previous iTunes versions. I have tons of music on my iPod and it is really annoying to have to look for a "The"-band under "t". Anyone knows how to change that?

hi Thomas!
b that's
unusual ...
the only way i know of to force, say, "The Pixies" to alphabetise under "T" in itunes is to replace the standard space between the "e" and the "P" with an alt-0160 "space" ...
... so let us experiment. right-click the trackname of one of the affected songs, select "get info" go to the "info" tab.
delete the space between the "The" and "[first word after that]". replace it with a standard space produced by your space bar. okay out of that screen. is that track back in it's rightful place in the library?
love, b

    I have the same problem, but don't expect Apple to help! I rang their help line and explained the situation and that the same experience is reported all over their forum and they would not assist unless I paid for a one year help subsciption.
    This company has lost the plot! They create software that universally will not work then expect customers to pay to have it fixed. Technically I should walk straight into the nearest apple shop and ask for a refund, as the device is no longer fit for purpose!
    Congratulations Apple for the best ant-promotional App on the market and your astounding lack of service ethos.

    Hello Mark Malecki,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are having some issues with iTunes on your MacBook. You may want to isolate the issues further by testing to see if they persist in a new user account:

    You can also try starting iTunes in safe mode:

    I have an HP Officejet Pro 7580 similar to the 8600 you have and after upgrading to Mountain Lion it wouldn't work. HP support site said download updates for Mountain Lion from App Store not their site so I went to software update but there were NO UPDATES FOR 10.8.  Tried a million things and could not get printer to work.  So I restored back to Lion figuring at least printer worked then only now I can't get it to work with old settings either. I am sick to death of claims by Apple and peripheral manufacturers that everything is compatible all you have to do is get updates well in this case THERE ARE NONE TO BE GOT and I don't have time to **** about trying to find 'work arounds'.  There shouldnt be a need for work-arounds. Unless the updates are ready DONT release the new OS.  You shouldn't have to be an IT tech to make basic things like printing work.  I see also the HP 8600 is even sold by appstore so there is no reason why it shouldn't work with minimum fuss. 

  • I have successfully exported subtitles (XML files) from FC version 7 to FC version 6, by choosing Apple XML Interchange Format Version 4. Now the exported subtitles suddenly read in one long line, at the top, not registering any "Enter" keystrokes.

    I have successfully exported subtitles (XML files) from FC version 7 to FC version 6, by choosing Apple XML Interchange Format Version 4. Now the exported subtitles suddenly read in one long line, at the top, not registering any "Enter" keystrokes. The same happens even if I re-import the XML file into Final Cut Version 7 (from where I exported the subtitles). Any tips on how to fix this?

    You might see if you can bring the xml file into Title Exchange Pro

    It's a great program and the author was very responsive when I had a problem.
    If it reads correctly, you can probably save it back out. 
    If you want to send it to me, I'll see if it opens.

    Hi I  newly started using Iphone 6, I am not getting all the applications list under Use Cellular date for to restrict my unwanted apps on cellular data
    Please help me out

    Hi Rajesh778484,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that some of your applications are not appearing under Settings > Cellular on your iPhone so that you can restrict or allow use of cellular data. If you have some installed applications on your iPhone that are not showing here, the first troubleshooting step I would suggest would be to reset your iPhone. Please refer to the attached article for information on how to perform a reset. 
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • In itunes 7 i cannot see the imix link under store music - has it moved?

    in itunes 7 i cannot see the imix link under store music - has it moved? i want to view all imix playlists - thanks

    Not sure if I'm following you exactlly,
    If your not seeing Apps in the sidebar, open iTunes Preferences and in the General tab make sure that the Apps box is checked.
    Also note: that only iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch iOS App's that are Synced with the computer will appear in the iTunes Apps Library.
    Plus if you are trying to remove App Store App's from your Mac? Just move them to the trash from your Application Folder and the go to the App Store, login to Purchases and hide them.

    You need at least 50 MB of free space in order to back up to iCloud.  Rather than backing up, have you tried importing the photos to your computer and deleting them from the camera roll as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083?

  • New iTunes versions no longer display the artist named "+/-"

    Ok, so I know the new iTunes versions have put non-alphabetic artists at the end of the list, which is insanely re tar ded. But that's not my problem right now.
    With the new sorting algorithm, *one of my artists has actually disappeared!!!*
    The band is called +/-. Pronounced "plus minus" but written with just the symbols and the slash.
    (Their website is at http://plusmin.us)
    They no longer show up anywhere in my iTunes Browser list (View -> Show Browser). Not at the top, not at the bottom, nowhere.
    If you turn on View -> Show Browser and search for +/- then in the Artist section (of the music browser) it says "All (0 Artists)" and in the Album section it says "All (7 Albums)" followed by the list of albums. So the music is still there, it just appears that the new iTunes database and search can't really process a band name that starts with anything non-alphanumeric. W T F ?
    A seemingly related bug is that when I view the main iTunes library (all artists), and scroll down to where +/- should be at the end of the list, the albums by +/- are not listed together. They are scattered around with my un-tagged tracks and not grouped together, say, like all of my albums by U2. (I also have the same problem with the band named "!!!" in the main library list -- but at least they show up in the Browser list)
    Whoever changed the iTunes sorting or database listing algorithm at Apple should fix this (and then be fired). I don't know how to submit this as a BUG to the iTunes team, but I thought maybe posting it here would help.
    Does anyone else have any "missing" artists in their iTunes libraries now?
    What is Apple thinking? How did this get past QA?
    FYI, there was no problem with this before Apple totally changed how artists are listed in the last few updates to iTunes. Why change it if it's not broken?
    Ben

    Immediately above your post, I explained how you might be able to fix this quickly and easily using Sort fields. You saw how to change multiple Sort fields at once, yes? Have you tried that?
    I have a Regina Spektor track called * in my library, and it appears just fine. Just to check, I changed one of my Artist names to +/-, and it was sorted to the end of the library when I sorted by Artist, no problem. +/- also appeared at the bottom of the Artist Browser pane, as I'd expect. If your +/- tracks aren't showing up, perhaps there's another explanation? They're not checked as compilations, are they? Have you tried re-importing them?
    If my copy of iTunes has no trouble handling non-alphanumeric fields, that suggests to me that there's something else causing the problem. Sometimes libraries do become corrupted. Providing more information may help.
    (I just checked with "!!!" also; that works fine as well.)

  • Installed Itunes Version 7.7, now cannot use Itunes

    After installing Itunes version 7.7, I now cannot open Itunes becuase it gives me the error of" The Folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside my "My Music" folder". I have uninstalled it and tried to install previous versions to no avail. I also tried the Microsoft Install Clean up utility and I still cannot install any version of itunes.

    i have managed to solve it
    what ive done is: went into apple updates and re-installed it, and this time everything is working properly
    Hope if anyone else has this problem, this will help them
