Order of Albums under Music-- Albums

When I go to Music-->Albums to view albums on my iPod, they are in alphabetical order. On iTunes, they are sorted "Album by Artist". Is there a way to sort the Albums on the iPod by Artist?
Thank you for any assistance.

No, what you see is what you get. Sort fields in iTunes (such as "album by artist") do not carry over to the iPod.

    Pre-order items from the iTunes Store
    If an item isn’t yet available, you may be able to pre-order and then download it when it becomes available.
    Pre-order an item: Click the Pre-order button next to the item. When the item is available for download, you receive an email notice. You aren’t charged for the item until you download it.
    Download a pre-ordered item: Click the link in the email notice or open iTunes and choose Store > Check for Available Downloads.
    View, cancel, or see the expected release dates for pending pre-orders: Choose Store > View My Apple ID, and click Manage Pre-orders.
    When you pre-order an item, you may not be able to download it at the exact moment it becomes available for regular purchase. You’ll receive an email the same day it becomes available to let you know when you can download the item.
    Some albums or collections you can pre-order include a song that’s available to download immediately. When you pre-order these items, the available song is downloaded and you’re charged only for that song. When you download the rest of the album (after you’re notified it’s available), you’re charged for the rest.

  • I pre ordered and album and an early release song was added to my music. However it says complete pre order and if i click that it says "Already Purchased". None of the other songs on the album will downloaded onto my music either. Help

    I preo ordered the album "Lost Isles" by Oceans Ate Alaska and the first early realease song, "Floorboards" Was instantly downloaded into my music library. However, today, a new song was released early called "Blood Brothers". It hasn't been downloaded into my music library and will let me purchase it for 99p. The album also says next to it "Complete Pre Order" but if I click that it just says "Album already purchased". Please tell me how to get the album without having to individually buy each track when they are released, costing me at least another £7. :/

    Maybe:
    Pre purchased song wont download

    Hi Gary gar,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the options at the bottom of the Music application may have been edited. You can click the More section on the far right, then choose Edit in the top right. You can then drag any options you want to that bottom bar and rearrange them.
    Browse and play - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph3cf21a82
    Tired of tapping More? To rearrange the buttons, tap More, then tap Edit and drag a button onto the one you want to replace.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

    If you are in a country where music can be redownloaded then it should show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone, and the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes. If it doesn't show there then does the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option on your computer's iTunes find it ?

  • HT201272 I pre-ordered an album, but only 2 of the songs from that album are showing up to download. What do I need to do to get the rest of the album that I already bought?

    Not sure what is going on here. I pre-ordered an album. One of the songs was available for instant download so I have that in my library now. I received an email saying that the rest of the album is available for download. When I go into my purchased songs as instructed, it only shows 2 other songs from that album. Not sure what I need to do.

    Hi libby2350,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Depending on your settings, the songs may already have been downloaded to your iTunes library.
    The article below will explain how the Pre-orders process works.
    If you still cannot find this music on your computer, the iTunes Store Support team will be happy to help you with your order.
    iTunes Store: About Pre-orders
    If you've enabled iTunes to automatically download prepurchased content, then your pre-order content may already be downloaded to your library. If not, simply click the download link provided within your email notification, and your pre-order content will begin to download. Alternatively you can use the "Check for Available Downloads" feature in iTunes on your computer by choosing Store > Check for Available Downloadsto begin downloading your pre-order.
    I hope this information helps ...
    Have a great day!
    - Judy

  • How to keep songs in order of album/artist help pls

    Hiya,
    Firstly is there a quicker way of putting an album on my shuffle other that clicking every song and adding it please? Also I have two albums on at the moment but they are all mixed up, how do i put them in order of album etc
    Thanks, Michelle. x

    You can select multiple songs at the same time. If they are all in a row (one after the other), click the first one to select it, press and hold the Shift key, then click the last one. Drag and drop the entire selection to the iPod shuffle under DEVICES.
    You should also be able to select songs not in a row by pressing and holding the Option and Command keys, then clicking on the songs you want to select. Once selected, drag and drop any select songs and they should all follow.
    Also (the most convenient way to fill the shuffle), you can use the Autofill feature at the bottom of the iPod's Contents tab in iTunes. First, make a new playlist and call it "shuffle songs" or whatever you want to call it. Put all the songs you want on the shuffle into that playlist. Now go to the Autofill controls and select to +Autofill from+ the playlist you just created and populated. Then, click on the "Autofill" button. The shuffle will sync with the playlist all in one shot, instead of having to do it manually a bit at a time.
    To answer your second question, you can drag the songs in the iPod's Contents tab to reorder them. The sequential order of the songs in the shuffle is as shown when you click at the top of the leftmost column (the one with the numbers). With this column selected (the header should be highlighted), you can drag the songs to be in the order you want.

  • Pre-ordered an album on the wrong account, single already purchased.

    My sister and I were using the same Apple ID and I had recently pre-ordered an album. Today I decided to seperate our accounts and cancelled the pre-order however the single from the album was already purchased and downloaded. Is it possible not to be charged twice for the same song when I pre-order the album on my new account?

    No, sorry viamorone. Purchases are tied directly to the Apple ID they are purchased under.
    Cheers,

  • Hi. I pre ordered an album from iTunes using my iPhone 4S. Once released I received an email with a download link. I followed the link which took me to the store. On the store the album

    Hi. I pre ordered an album from iTunes using my iPhone 4S. Once released I received an email with a download link. I followed the link from the email which took me to iTunes Store. There I found the album &amp; all tracks shown as purchased but with no apparent way of downloading. When I check for items to download, it isn't there. When I check purchased items purchased, it isn't there either. It only appears when I tap the album cover from the front page &amp; then only as purchased.

    Hello 28mexiworth
    Check your Music app to see if it already downloaded. You can also check iTunes on your computer to Check for a available downloads. If you are still not able to get it, then report the issue to iTunes.

    You can't.

  • Help! Order of photos in a Folder does not match order of albums

    I have seen dozens of threads on folders and albums, sorting them etc. However did not quite find an answer to this one.
    The question is : Why the order of photos in a Folder does not match with the order of Albums I have created underneath the Folder?
    In other words I created a floder and placed within the folder a few albums we will call G, K, C ...etc in the chronological order in which I want to show the pictures. The pictures within the album are not strictly chronological. ( I will explain more if this is an issue)
    Next when I click on the Folder, I notice that the photos are grouped by the corresponding Album which is what they should be, however their(photos) order did not correspond to that of the Albums. In other words, in the Folder view, I see photos of K first and then may be G and then may be C. I am not able to change that order to G, K, C..the way I want. This will mess up the slideshow for me.
    For clarity, I created each album simply by dragging corresponding event down into the Folder. The events are sorted by date and ascending in View>Sort Events.
    I appreciate any suggestions please!
    Thanks

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion, Mt. Lion or Mavericks delete the contents the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto, reset its preferences and try the slideshow again.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If you're running Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

    Just because I have an imac pre 2007 why can I not order photo albums???!!
    I spent hours building a photo album for my parents only to find out that because my mac is earlier than 2007, even though I have 10.6.8, I can no longer order?! What is with that? This makes no sense. I can go online to various "photo shop" place and regardless of the OS and computer I am working from I can order a photo album so why can I no longer do this through iPhoto on my MAC?
    How do I order my album now? If somebody could please explain as I am going home in 1 month and really wanted to surprise my aging parents with this book.

  • Tried to pre-order an album but not working. Please help!!!

    I tried to pre-order an album. It was one that came with a song that downloaded immedietly. I clicked pre-order and it said some error and to try again. I went to and realized I was charged for that one song that you can get first. So i thought it went ahead and pre-ordered the album anyway. I looked in my purchased history and saw nothing about the album or that one song, so it charged me for nothing! Any ideas how i can fix this?
