My songs/albums/artists are sorted under the wrong letter on my ipod - how do I fix this?

After upgrading to iOS5, my music is sorted under the incorrect letter during song/album/artist browsing. I tried deleting all my music from itunes/my ipod and reloading it, but it's still wrong. Any ideas how I can fix this issue?

hey i had the same problem but mine didnt fix after the sync
but if you get this problem again just highlight the track then go to file and select get info after that go to the sorting tab and fill in the info and that should be how they appear for example if the songs name is numb and in the sorting field you put numb aswell thats how it will be shown or if you type in corpses it will show up in the c's
are on your ipod/iphone

Artists are all under the same letter

After having synced my ipod touch with itunes i found that all the artists, song names and albums are under the same letter - A. The bar to the right hand side, as well, won't let me scroll because it's classing all my music under the same letter. Why is it doing this?

I am having this problem too. What the **** is going on?

When you launch iPhoto with the option key depressed you'll get this window:

All libraries on your hard drive (and on external drives) will be listed and the currently used library will be listed as (default).

"The vendor account you entered is not associated with the item you are trying to open. Please try again". How do I fix this?

Digital editions is set-up and accepting books. Everything seems fine except when I try to open the books, it asks for authorisation. I enter the Adobe ID which works when I go into the Adobe site, but gives me the error "The vendor account you entered is not associated with the item you are trying to open. Please try again". How do I fix this?

I note this information from Wikipedia: "DVD Studio Pro was a high-end software tool published by Apple Inc. to allow users to create DVD masters to be sent out for replication at production houses. Its tight integration with other Apple applications allows users to take Final Cut Pro and Motion projects and render them into the DVD format without encoding to intermediary formats. This streamlines the production workflow and reduces overhead."
If that is your intent, finding a substitute program that will run on your Mac may not be as efficient. Others can advise you on alternatives, or you can post a new thread specifically with that question.
BTW: what Mac and what version of OS X?
If it is important to you to continue to use DVD Studio Pro, consider the option of installing Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels on your Mac:

Hope this helps,

This usually indicates a problem with your router or cable modem, your ISP's service or cabling outside your house. First thing I'd try is rebooting the router/cable modem (turn it off, wait 1 minute, then turn it back on).

My ipod won't sync any of the music i downloaded and says that iTunes can't backup the Ipod because a session couldn't be started with the Ipod how do i fix this

My ipod won't sync any thing in my iTunes library it always stop as soon as it starts backingup the Ipod a message appears that says iTunes cannot backup the Ipod "my Ipod" because a session couldn't be started withthe Ipod how do i fix this problem?
This is exactly what the message says: iTunes could not back up the iPod "austins ipod" because a session could not be started with the iPod.

Try connecting your ipod to another computer and sync only 1 file or song just for isolation purpose only to see if it'll sync.
If still not syncing, then porbably you may have a bad iOS installed in iPod which is hard to see if it has a problem because you said nothing's wrong with iPod. I just saying is, it MIGHT have a bad iOS.
If you are unable to do a restore, put your ipod in DFU mode, then connect to iTunes and iTunes will detect your ipod in restore mode. Press shift key (PC keyboard) then click the restore button on iTunes. I hope you have your copy of IPSW file for restoration purposes.

When I manually add songs to iphone 4s many appear gray and won't play. How do I fix this? I have the manually manage music button checked, and I can play them on itunes, but on my iphone they appear gray and won't play. There doesn't seem to be any reason, as one song from an album will play, but the other 9 won't....
