Podcasts in the song list

Ipod can distinguish between podcasts and songs but seems to list them together under the 'Songs' menu selection. Is there a way to exclude podcasts from the Songs list without creating playlists?

More specific info on the problem - when I browse my "Artists" or "Albums" categories within Music, all of my podcasts and audiobooks are listed along with my music. IMHO - these menu categories are specific to music, and as I have a lot of podcasts and audiobooks loaded on my ipod, this makes it difficult to browse my music (and I have loaded all of my podcasts and audiobooks through iTunes).
What I would like to see for the menu organization is:
- top level menu has major categories for types of data loaded on your ipod + maintenance options, e.g.:
o Music (contains only music)
o Podcasts
o Audiobooks
o Movies
o Settings
o Extras
- within each category, only items related to that category are listed and there is no overlap
- the only slight exception to this rule is for video podcasts, and IMHO these should be stored in podcasts (since they are not movies). Also - when you play a video podcast, it should always play in a video mode. Right now, if you play a video podcast from the main Podcast menu it plays only the audio, not showing the video.
Bottom line - I only want one way to navigate to a specific item - reduces confusion and simplifies the interface.

  • My songs are in my iTunes library but the song titles do not show up on the songs list.

    I have an older generation iPod nano, do I need to go back to an older version of iTunes so I can see the song titles on the song list? If so, does anyone have a link to the oder verson?

    Does anyone know of an audio CD burner that will consistently label the original information?
    Audio CDs do NOT have info except for CD-TEXT, no matter which program you use.
    The Redbook audio CD standard does not allow for anything except CD-TEXT.
    iTunes will write CD-TEXT but it will not read CD-TEXT.
    You can burn data CDs and all the info will be retained and can be played in iTunes.

  • I have a iPod nano 5th generation and there's a song I'm trying to play, but each time I click it from artist it just shows the songs name again. And when I try to click the song from the song list it just skips. How can I fix this?

    Pretty much I have a song on my iPod 5th gen nano that doesn't wanna play, its just one song every other song works. I click it and it show the thing when a song is about to play but then it instantly goes back to where you click on the song. And when I click on it in the songs list it skips immediately to the next song on the list. I have tried restoring my iPod but the song still won't work I've also tried removing the song from the library and the putting it back on iTunes but still no luck. What do you guys suggest I do?

    Can you play the song in iTunes?
    If you can't the song file is probably corrupt and needs to be replaced.

  • My question is Itunes related.  How do you prevent a playlist saved in Itunes from alphabetizing the song list created. I wanted to keep the original order, and somehow everything was alphabetized without requesting it.

    My question is Itunes related.  How do you prevent a playlist saved in Itunes from automatically alphabetizing the song list.   I had a specific order of songs that I wanted, and Itunes somehow automatically alphabetized them.  Is there a way to turn that feature off, and/or get them back to the original order?   I also noticed that once a playlist has been created, I cannot manually changed the order of the songs from my desktop..  Any suggestions?

    That's just the sort order. It's displaying the media alphabetically because you have clicked on the NAME column near the top of the iTunes window.
    Click on the little triangle above the column of numbers (usually on the far left side of the main iTunes window) and the media will sort in the order in which you added each item to the playlist.
    You can easily reorder songs within a playlist: Click and HOLD on the song you wish to move, then drag-and-drop it wherever you like.

  • How can I change the order of the songs listed in a playlist?

    How can I change the order of the songs listed in a playlist?

    Hello Pokerplayer62,
    In order to update the order of items in your playlists on the iPod Nano, you have to update them on the computer, and then sync the updated playlists to your device.
    From the iPod Nano User guide here: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_us/ipod_nano_features_guide.pdf
    To set iTunes to update iPod nano automatically with selected playlists:
    Open iTunes and select iPod nano in the Source list. Click the Options button and click Music.
    Select “Automatically update selected playlists only.” Select the playlists you want.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Recently, after cancelling the tick of a song, which is the next song after the one I am listening, in the song list, the canceled song will still run for the next song. I remember that it used not to happen like this. How can I solve this problem?

    Recently, after cancelling the tick of a song, which is the next song after the one I am listening, in the song list, the canceled song will still run for the next song. I remember that it used not to happen like this. How can I solve this problem?

    This looks like a change of behaviour in iTunes 12. Once songs are queued up to the Up Next list then they play whether ticked or not. If you want to skip certain songs already queued click the Up Next tool, then click the small X to the left of the song that appears when you hover over it.

  • In iTunes, is it possible to sort by albums, without all the songs listed below each album title?

    It seems there was something in the recent iOS7 release that have made a few changes in the way itunes is viewed on the iPhone.  In the past I would sort by artist, which would then show all the albums. Now it shows all the albums, but with all the songs listed below each album title.  I have several artist with over 50 albums, I don't want to scroll through all of the songs.  I clocked it at 1.3 miles to scroll through all of them.  If I sort by album, it does not group by the artist, just the album title. Any possible way to get this view back?

    No, I meant if you tap on the album title in the Artist viewso, does it collapse the song listing? Next, I asked if all the songs were not on the phone, like the ones you showed in the photo (with the cloud symbol). It appears that most of these songs are not really on your phone. What happens if you go to Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off as I mentioned in the last post. Here is a screen shot of my music app in Artist view.
    This is a mix of songs purchased from iTunes and self-ripped CDs that I have in my collection.

  • I lost my "Now playing screen" How do I get it back? All it shows is the album cover and the song list pages

    How can I get my "Now Playing" screen back? I can't scroll or change screens at all. All I have is the album picture and the song list page. I can toggle between the two but nothing else. It did this all by itself. Now it's stuck.

    what happens when you tap the screen?
    Next try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                 
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • How do you erase old podcast in the mode list ?

    How do you erase old podcast in the mode list ?

    Thanks.
    Well I used the "List" view on the right and I was able to delete podcasts from there.
    I guess I'll have to get used to another view...
    I also lost all my old poscats archived though.  Not sure if it is because of wonderful 11.1 iTunes or because I bought a new computer. They're all lost. But that's a different problem.
    Since you seem so ressourceful, maybe you can help on another problem that I don't seem to be the only one having ?  Have a look at the discussion titled "
    In iTunes 11.1 when a podcast finishes it starts playing the next oldest one automatically.

  • Music plays, playlists are there but the song list is empty!?

    The strangest things has happened with iTunes 7.3.2 today: all the playlists are there, I can even play the music, but the song list window is totaly empty! How has this happened and what can I do to restore the list?
    I've checked the .xml library file and everything seems to be all right in there. I've even tried recreating it but that didn't help.
    The last thing I remember doing with iTunes was creating a playlist and burning it as an audio CD.
    When I try any kind of operation on the playlists, the iTunes crashes down. When I start it, it normally loads the library as if everything is fine.
    When switching between the playlists, I can play each individual playlist but I can't see any content. The song list window is just blank.
    Has anyone experienced anything like this? What can be done apart from recreating the whole library from the scratch? There is over 65 GB of music in the library on the external drive.

    Problem solved. First I've tried importing from the .xml library file but that didn't help. As a last resort I've re-installed iTunes completely and everything is back to normal now.
