Music Sorting in S^3
A suggestion for an update to the music player. The music library needs to have an option to sort the music by albums also apart from Artists.
Not everyone organises their music by artists and most Indian music is generally sorted yb Albums. S60 used to have this option but don't understand why this was taken away in S^3

My music sorted in ascending order on iTunes, it has been since I've had iTunes. Prior to iOS 7.0.x, albums were sorted by name under the artist. In iOS 7.0.x, that changed, and albums were sorted by release date in ascending order (i.e. newest at the bottom). Now, in iOS 7.1.x, albums are sorted by release date in descending order (i.e. newest at the top).
It was changed on your system, not mine.
Mine were never sorted by release date. It has always been sorted Album by Artist.

Music Sorting in iOS 7.1 (Issue)
I know some people hated it, but iOS 7.0.x sorted music in the Music app by release date which I thought was awesome. Sorting by name also makes sense, so there's no reason why there shouldn't be an option for either. In iOS 7.1.x, the Music app continues sorting by release date, but in descending order (i.e. newest is always at the top of the list) rather than ascending (newest is always at the bottom of the list).
This method of sorting seems utterly useless to me (why is there an implicit assumption in this design that I want the newest music of an artist at the top?), and now I can't just listen to an artist's entire discography in order, which I was thoroughly enjoying before this afternoon's update.
I would VERY much like to see an option within the preferences for the Music app to sort albums by artist in ascending order (oldest album of an artist at the top, and newest at the bottom) as well as by name (in case someone doesn't care about release dates). I shouldn't have to make a playlist to play an artist's discography in order on my phone, especially when I don't have to do that on my computer.Bazoingdoing wrote:

How can I see my classical music sorted according to composers - individual works - performers ?
How can I see my classical music sorted according to composers - individual works - performers ? This is much more useful than sorting according albums.
I have tried using the Grouping tag, writing Composer - Work - conductor there. But if I make a smart playlist, showing only Genre: "classical" and sorting according to Grouping, I see a line for each part in every work: one line for each movement of Mahler's 4th Symphony performed by George Solti, for instance.
What I am looking for is a way so that there is ONE line for each PERFORMANCE, ie, one line for Mahler's 4th Symphony performed by George Solti, below that one line for Mahler's 4th Symphony performed by William Mackerras, and so on.
Anyone found the golden solution? :-)
Peter P.How can it be possible because the resoution of my video source is the same before and after conversion process ... thanks to my ADSL Box and my PS3 the video is ok ... not with ATV ...
Could you please give me the resolution I should have for my video in SD or HD720 ?
All my video have converted in 768x576 ...
Is there another way to convert my video for iTunes instead AVS Video Converter ?
Thanks all -
Is there a way to change the way Music sorts? In IOS 6 it was sorted by artist, then each album was sorted, and you were able to click on a particular album, in IOS7 every album for an artist is in release date order, and its a pain having to scroll through all the albums when you only want one.

Wondering if people here are sorting by genre and how, im looking for a way to sort by genre and then sub-genre. but of course finding difficulties doing that since most bands belong to a wide variety of genres. im looking to this using, Genre - Grouping - Artist, in Column browser.
I'm doing this in a non purist way. simply doing this to find my music the best as i can. example: Metal - Death Metal - Bandname... easy. but when organizing Indie rock or Alt. Rock, Hardcore, Goth... it pretty much all belongs to Punk rock in origin. then i'll have way too many bands under that genre of music. defeating the whole purpose of doing this.
Anybody got screens, of genre - grouping - band in itunes. i could of course, go through every single band in my collection find some vague similar genres too be able to group them under the same genre. must be a more simple way of doing this, or at least a little less time consuming.
idea. Alternative Rock - Indie Rock - band. and group things like indie pop, indie rock and grunge under Alternative Rock? even though Alt. rock really has its roots in post punk or punk rock, i would still have Punk and as a separate genre grouping things like emo, hardcore, punk revival under there. i want to hear your Genre- Grouping sort.
ps. in my collection i have everything from The Killers to Cannibal Corpse to KMFDM to Buck 65 to Micheal Jackson to Herbie Hancock. and those are only the names i think majority will regognize. about 300 artist overall. in most genres.
psII. yes i overly obsessive abotu things like this. and no i dont jsut do Rock, Classical, Jazz, World Music. cause then like 230 artists would be under Rock. and it wouldnt help me find peticular artists.
I'm sry about spelling mistakes. english is not my first language.
Message was edited by: biggz diI was having a similar problem -- but noticed it only happened on albums where the "Album Artist" was not unique (such as when it was listed as "Various Artists" or "Unkown". When that happened, no matter what I did, the genre did not sync correctly to the IPhone.
My solution was to change the "Album Artist to something unique (mostly I used the name of the album in that field) and resync'd my IPhone. Suddenly the genre was sync'd correctly between Itunes and the IPhone.
Hope that helps... -
IPhone music sorted incorrectly
Since enabling iTunes in the Cloud, my music is sorted incorrectly on my iPhone. Albums starting with "S" will appear under "T", for instance.
Even after disabling iTunes in the Cloud, the problem persists. I've tried synching my phone, to no avail.
See the attached photo for an example.First off, thank you for the screenshot, users fail to post these and it helps out a ton.
The only thing that stjmps me is Truthfully Truthfully is sorted under V.
I switched to my albums tab on my iPhone and I have songs like "The You Asked..." which is sorted under Y because it ignores "The." I also have a song "The Wa.." sorted under W, which is again, ignoring "The" before it. I don't think there is any problem here, it's just the way it's sorted.
Are you having this issue with your songs tab or artists? What about playlists? -
IPhone Music Sorting - Album year field
Hi
I originally posted the below in the iPhone section, but I think it may be more appropriate here.
I have a selection of radio shows and podcasts that I want to sort into a certain order on my iPhone, but no matter what I do in iTunes I cannot get them to display correctly. Here's what I have done so far:
1. Split the 'songs' into 'albums', with one album for each series/ group of podcasts.
2. Made sure that all of the 'songs' are correctly labelled in the 'info' tab. The following is the same for all songs:
- Artist
- Album Artist
- All other fields are blank (with the exception of 'Year' which I will come on to later)
3. Changed the 'Album Sort' field on the 'Sorting' tab so that the albums are sorted in chronological order and the actual title of the 'album' is ignored. e.g.:
- XFM Series 1 (from 2001) is labelled as 'A' in the 'Album Sort' field
- XFM Series 2 (from 2002) is labelled as 'B'
- XFM Series 3 (from 2003) is labelled as 'C'
- XFM Series 4 (from 2004) is labelled as 'D'
- Radio 2 shows (from 2005) are labelled as 'E'
Doing the above gets the albums to display perfectly in iTunes, with them being sorted in chronological order as dictated by the 'Album Sort' field.
I then synced the albums onto my iPhone and expected all to be well, but instead found that when I went to the 'Artists' tab they were listed in reverse chronological order (newest album first). So to fix this I went into iTunes and tried the following:
1. Went into the 'info' tab for all albums and set the year to 2001 for all. As the year is the same for all it should now sort by 'Album Sort' in theory. That didn't work though so I tried...
2. Set the years in reverse order for each album, so that the latest series 'Radio 2 shows' was labelled as 2001, and the oldest album 'XFM Series 1' was labelled as 2005.
That still didn't work, but even more strangely when I view the album on the iPhone a different year is being displayed under the title, e.g.:
XFM Series 3
12 Songs, 686 mins
2006
I have checked that album in iTunes and 2006 is not contained anywhere on the album or song info tabs. I have tried to add a different year in the year field, and also delete the year field, but no matter what I do 2006 continues to be displayed.
Where is this year being held within the file and how can I change it? I checked the ID3 tags for a song from that album in VLC and could not see 2006 referenced anywhere.
Thanks for any help!Hello,
As far as I can see, you can't sort the order of music on the iPod Touch. It is always sorted alphabetically.
Maybe you can suggest that as a feature to Apple.

Itunes music sorting question, itunes is sorting part of a cd incorrectly
ok here's the problem. I just imported a cd onto my itunes music file. it was originally filed as two cd's, one with the regular cd, the second with four bonus tracks that were released on various versions of the particular cd. this is what happened. itunes put the regular cd with the other cd's I have by the artist, but the bonus songs? they were stored in a new list, same band name, in an unalphabetized location on my itunes browser. the band is called "10 years" and the regular cd is, like I stated above, filed with the rest of the ten years tracks, but the bonus material? it's stored near the top of my artist list in a now new label that says ten years. i selected all the files for the cd, put them in as one cd, with one cd title, all filed as (correct track number) of 17 tracks, and its still sorting them separately. so in summation, the regular cd's 13 tracks are filed with the rest of the ten years tracks, but the bonus songs are filed in an all new ten years artist label at the top of my artist list, instead of at the bottom where the band names that start with numbers are stored. in the six or so years i've used i tunes this has never happened. i've imported hundreds upon hundreds of cd's into itunes and this has NEVAR happened. I tried deleting the cd, after it was correctly labeled and then re importing it but to the same no effect. it still files them separately, and incorrectly i must add. lastly, the actual file location of the tracks is correct. they're all in my ten years file, all in one folder under the cd title. when i select the "correct" ten years file on my itunes browser all the songs are listed, but the bonus songs are above the regular songs on the list. so track 1-13 are UNDER track 14-17. now I know its not a big "problem" but it IS quite frustrating. I'm a little OCD about my music and dont want anything out of order or mislabeled, etc. if you have ANY idea what is causing this issue please help. i would appreciate it.
Ah, that's the same fix as I describe in One album, still too many covers. I've no idea why iTunes does this one either. Funnily enough it seems to happen sometimes when I rename an existing album which is properly grouped so I know the values must be consistent because I've only just changed them, and did so all at the same time.

I cannot figure out how my iPad is sorting music when I look under the "Songs" tab in the Music app (screenshot attached). I noticed it yesterday after I updated to ios6. How can I get it to sort with in simple alphabetical order by song title?
Why are the three songs which start with G scattered through the A's?
Thanks!It seems to have been fixed by deleting all songs off my iPad and resyncing the lot.

Music sorting/lining up in iTunes (iPod)
I have a ipod and I like to listen to music in the ipod by connecting it to my pc and play music in itunes. By just now I pressed the "Name" button on top of my Library and now my songs are lining up according to their names, in every albums. I know how to solve the problem when it happen in my PC Library. There are numbers before the name of songs, when I sort the songs by that category, the songs will lining up orderly. But I can't see any numbers before the name of songs in the iPod Library. I have try to add a new sorting category called "track number" but it didn't work. So, how can I lining up my songs orderly in my iPod Library?
Thank You for answering my question.just now I pressed the "Name" button on top of my Library and now my songs are lining up according to their names, in every albums. I know how to solve the problem when it happen in my PC Library

N 6300 problem: alphabetical music sorting
Hello.
I have problem with N 6300 music player. (My software version is 5.50)
When I select ALL TRACKS in MUSIC LIBRARY, then player every songs sorting by alphabet...
for example: 1. I upload folder with tracks REM
2. I upload folder with tracks Morcheeba
3. I upload folder with tracks U2
so now I have 3 folders with music on my SD card...
Now I switch on music player, select Update Library, select All Tracks and result:
First track play from REM folder, second track play from Morcheeba folder, next from U2 folder, etc...
Its STRANGE!!! How to switch of this sorting "feature"?
Before I was using Nokia 6230 and there wasn't this problem with music player.
Thanx for answers.
(sorry for my bad english)it would be perfect if nokia 6300's music player were sorted the track by folders, 'cause i have to create the playlist in nokia PC Suite, sorted by path...BUT, the appears another problem, I've noticed, that if playlist has more than 100 track, and you try to play it, the phone gets stoned then, after what, it Switches OFF, and when you're enterind musci player, it takes abou 2 min's to start, and the playlist is unsorted again!!!
thanks, hope smn read... -
Music sorting issue with iPhone 4
My music has always been sorted by Artist on iTunes and on my iPhone, not Album Artist. Just recently I did a restore and after syncing iPhone, the music is being sorted by Album Artist. iTunes is setup the same as it ever was. There are alot of songs that would need fixing to my liking if I had to manually switch each song.
On a side note,
Just got a new iPhone 4 with my Black Tie and same issue, so two different iPhones, same issue.1.) Tell Bluetooth to forget the UConnect Device
2.) Repair to UConnect.
3.) When you go thru the pairing process, delete the old names of the phone and come up with a new name for the new pairing.
4.) Power down vehicle and Uconnect
5.) Power down the iPhone completly, hold down the top right hand button till you get the power screen then turn it off. Leave it off for a touch, say 2 min.
6.) Hit home screen button or top right button and repower phone.
You should be able to connect with Uconnect again by bluetooth and you will have the same options as before with audio. -
Hi! My X2-05 piles all my music in one list. It won't sort it by artist, album, etc. It just displays everything as "unknown". I know that's wrong, because I am very thorough when tagging music and when I play individual tracks the phone displays all the details beautifully.
same here
in my case, it only filed one mp3 in the album folder
all the rest were "unknown" and unsorted -
Hello,
Just recently bought a BB Curve . I picked up a 2GB(enough for me) MicroSD. Well when I got the sd card in it and threw a few songs on it. It worked fine the first time. Music was moved into the Music folder, unplugged the BB from computer, and everything was fine. The media player tracked all my artist and album tags. Which was great except I had several without tag info(Unknown). So I cleared the folder and prepared a larger play list of only WMA's and MP3's with proper tags.(Bout 1.8GB of legal copied CD's from Media Player and Itunes<-converted to mp3.) Anyways after about an hour or two Roxxio finished moving all the music to the drive. Unplug the BB and go into media player. Only this time it had no sort options at all. If you went to Album/Artist it says (Unknown) which brings up a list of all songs.
I figured I may have changed the conversion in Roxxio and that might have caused it. So I tried again with different conversion settings. Again hours later same problem.
Not sure what the problem might be. Any help would be appreciated as 1.8GB of music is too hard to navigate without the sort features.
Thanks in advance.
