Printing up a Artist-Album-Track List from a folder?

Is there a way to print up a list with this information so that I can see what I have?
I'm basically wanting to get all of my music into Lossless format and want to get rid of all mp3's and I want to compare the two folders in a list.

Hey,
If you already have all the media in iTunes...
First option I would suggest is a "Smart Playlist" in iTunes that shows all Apple Lossless tracks. Using a smart playlist will keep it updated as you reimport music in the lossless format.
File > New Smart Playlist
Match The Following Rule Checked
Kind Contains "Lossless"
Another option is to use the iTunes > Print option
First switch to "List View" and "sort by Artist" so that all Artists/Albums are lumped together.
Next, right click on the Horizontal Nav Bar in iTunes and click "Kind"
Drag Kind over to the Far Left so that it is easily visible.
Go to File > Print > Song List > Custom
This will print the current view you have in iTunes, so you will get a long list of songs with the media kind on the far left. You can either print this or save it to a PDF, which requires much less ink/paper.

Sort by Artist - Album - Track Number

I could use some help pls. I have recently reinstalled and now all of a sudden iTunes is acting stupid. I want to sort by Artist -> Album -> Track Number. What is happening is it's sorting by Artist -> Album but the Track Numbers are backwards (listed 10 to 1).
Before you say it, it is NOT a tag issue!! I just spent the last two hours staring at a single album. Every instance of artist/album artist/disk x of y/year/genre/etc/etc are IDENTICAL. Every instance of everything that is not unique is absolutely identical!!
As a side note...does anyone know why Apple refuses to fix the bug in iTunes where mouse wheel scrolling has never worked?
Thanks...

Click on the Artist album header.
In the right side of the Artist album column header is a small triangle.
Click it so it points up. This will sort the albums track 1 thru track 10.
If the trianlge is pointing down, it will sort track 10 to track 1.
I click Artist with the arrow DEscending.
It's a triangle, not an arrow. The top of the triangle is smaller and the bottom is larger, just like the sort. Or vice-versa.
This used to automatically sort each Album under each Artist and within each Album the Tracks would be sorted numerically (1->10).
No, it has never worked as you suggest.
Ascending sort
Descending sort

Artists/albums/songs list too long! Shortcut?

Hi,
I've got so many artists in my iPod's list, it takes me far too long to find songs. Not so bad when you're walking around, but terrible when I'm in the car with the iTrip and I'm trying to find a song!
Is there any way I can break the Artists/Albums/Songs lists down into like.. A-K, L-Z? Or jump to a particular letter faster than 1 line at a time? I have looked in the settings but I can't find anything relevant.
If this isn't possible, maybe it would be a good idea for a future iPod feature?
Thanks!

It isn't about how many tunes - rather the size of the files.
Look at the bottom of the iTunes window when viewing a playlist - it will show you number of tunes, time of playlist and the size of the entire playlist.

I want to add an album to iWeb from a folder on my desktop but I do not want to first add it to iPhoto, is there a way I can add a photo to iWeb without it being from iPhoto?

Yes. You want to add photos from a folder on the desktop to an existing iWeb album page? Just bring up the page in iWeb and drag the photo into the group of thumbnails that are displayed on the page and move it to where you want it locate

Can 'track list' button show your playlist rather than album track list?

Hi all
My 3GS iPhone has my music on it in the form of whole albums which live in individual playlists on my Mac, but I also have playlist 'mixes' which I've created from various songs from multiple albums.
When selecting to play a 'mixed' playlist on my iPhone I tap on it, tap the first song to start the music playing, but then if I tap the top right 'track list' button, instead of showing all the tracks in my created playlist it just shows the entire album tracks from where this particular song has come from. Visually I prefer the 'track list' screen but it seems I can't use it if I'm playing a 'mixed' playlist. Is there any way around this?
Also, this is the same if I have a double CD album: once I hit the 'track list' button it shows just CD 1 (or 2 if I'm further down the play list of course), rather than all the tracks even though on they all live in one single playlist on my iTunes. I've even taken the starts of the track names off (some of them start with '1_01 Song Title' for example) when importing them into iTunes to see if that helps but it doesn't: the iPhone KNOWS how that track was originally supplied!
Any help or clarification on this would be very helpful!

sadly, that kind of customization is only easily doable on a computer. the iPhone and it's core apps can not be changed by users. you can request the feature be put in, but unless there are a LOT of requests, you shouldn't get your hopes up as there are a lot of these kinds of requests, and by implementing it, how many other users would be angry and demand it be changed back? http://www.apple.com/feedback/
if you are playing a song that you selected in a playlist, you should be able to hit the 'back' button in the top left to go back to the playlist and view your songs in the playlist.
in regards to the 'cd 1 of 2' thing, you will need to change your song info to get this to show in the format you want. to see the song info, select a song and go to 'file -> get info'. that will show you all of the ID3 tag information, which you can edit to do whatever you want.

Can iTunes print CD labels or export track lists?

I know iTunes can print CD inserts, the paper that goes into a jewel case. But what I am asking about is the ability to print a label that would go onto the CD itself. This is useful when I have burned a playlist onto a CD.
Ideally, I would like to print directly from within iTunes.
If that is not possible, I would settle for exporting the track list so I can import it into another program (I have Nero Express) that can print a CD label.
I want to be able to print paper labels or LightScribe "labels."
Thanks for any help.

You are correct. iTunes can print the CD jewel case inserts. It cannot print labels for the CD.
If you want to use the playlist information in another program, just do a highlight and copy from the playlist, and then paste into the other program.
The editing in the Lightscribe program (Sure Thing) is IMHO not too good, so I usually do the paste into Notepad, do the editing there, then copy /paste into Lightscribe and do final formatting there.

Renaming artist splits track 1 from rest of album

Recently I renamed Kiss to read KISS, and just now renamed The Project Hate Mcmxcix to MCMXCIX. After completion the first track of every single album by these two bands is split off from the second track on down. I've tried re-entering all uniform data (even album art) and they still won't group together. Everything that is common for each album, artist name, album name, year, number of total tracks, and artwork is exactly the same.
Anyone have a clue why iTunes is doing this? Thanks in advance.

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Why? No. A workaround? Yes. See my previous post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, still too many covers.

Some of my albums track lists are incorrect in my iPod

I've noticed this problem with my iPod probably a week or so after I bought it. It is a brand new 80 gb iPod. What is happening is that a few of my albums on my iPod list the tracks incorrectly. I've noticed this happening with about a dozen of my albums. The track numbering is correct in the iTunes, but for some reason the tracks are just wrong in the iPod. I've double checked to make sure that every track number is correct, and it is. What makes it worse is that I'm one of those kids who enjoy albums from start to finish, in correct order.
I was wondering if this is a common occurance, or just some rare bug that I happened to slip onto. I am considering restoring my iPod to the factory default settings. But I know there must be some other way to resolve this without doing that (it takes about 10 hours just to put all of my music on my iPod in one transfer). Thank you in advance.
Presario 2100 Windows XP

I figured this out on my own just know. I cleared out all of the comments on the tracks, and now the albums list the tracks in correct order. Also if you come across this thread with the same problem, this link is a good place for more help.

Zen v+ - how to play all tracks in artist/album/track-number or

i got my zen v+ yesterday and am very excited, but...
i've read the help, tried every play mode and every option on the player, searched this forum and an another forum w/o success
this seems like a very basic ability - i must be missing something obvious
i installed/used the media explorer included with the player and used the included sync tool
my wmv's are tagged, they appear to be organized properly when browsing by artist and album
somebody please help me
tia,
brett
ps.
also want the ability to skip an artist if i'm not in the mood for their musicMessage Edited by brettvplus on 08-24-20072:44 PM

The Muvos are USB Mass Storage devices and do not have the ability to display track information based upon ID3 tags.
The Zens all read and display track info based upon ID3 tag information that is either gathered from an online source or entered by the end-user.
If you want the track information displayed instead of the ID3 tag information, you could edit the ID3 tags and rename the title to whatever you have as the file name. Not sure why your file names would differ so much from the ID3 tag info though, almost all of my content has the same name for the filename as it does on the ID3 tag title.

Creative Zen Album Track Listing Lim

Is there a 0 track limit for albums? I just added a new album to it and it only accepted 0 tracks (there are 2). Then it made another file to put the other 2 tracks.

No, I don't think there is any such limit with that model either. How many albums do you have on there? Is this happening with every relevant album?
edit: I might know what the problem is. It reads ID3 tags, so if those other two files have a different artist listed or name variation then it will be placed in a different area.Message Edited by ssjmichael on 05-06-2006 03:24 PM

Can't listen to any music on my iPhone 5, when I press play it just skips to the next song, does that for a few seconds, then goes back to artist/album/song list. HELP!!

I just updated my iTunes on my laptop to the newest version. I connected my iPhone five to the laptop, and it asked me something about a restore. I wasn't thinking, confused "restore" with "sync" and I just hit yes.... I know, dumb. Anyways, I logged into iTunes on my laptop, downloaded all my purchased songs through the cloud, did a backup, then disconnected it. When I used my phone again, everything was different. All my backgrounds had changed, my apps were rearranged, I had old apps on my phone that I had previously deleted, etc., all signs pointing to me restoring my phone to a previous version.. None of that bothered me, I knew how to deal with it and just changed everything back to the way I had it before the restore, and everything was fine.
Until I went to listen to some music on my iPod. I made my album choice, selected a song, and instead if it playing, it was silence. I looked at my phone and it was skipping through the songs without ever playing a single sound. That bar that shows how far through the song you are? It never moved from zero, but my songs were skipping and skipping and skipping, almost like I was hitting the "skip track" button, only faster.
Should I re-restore my phone? Would that possibly fix it? I've checked, and my iOS and my iTunes and iPod version are all up to date.
PLEASE HELP ME!! I can't find this topic anywhere in support, and I NEEEEEED my music.

Hello avenmaven,
Thank you for all the information you provided, and congratulations on your new laptop!
I do not think this has to do with setting up iCloud on your new computer. You might not have the option to manually manage music checked on your devices. This box would need to be checked if you are dragging content over to your iPhone or trying to delete by pressing the delete key:

Printing A3 page format using ABAP List from SAP is a problem...

Hi Experts,
I am trying to print a standard output (ABAP List) A3 page size from SAP.
I used SWIN, SAPWIN, I9HP4 device types, but none of them worked.
I created page format type ZYEVMIYE 290MM 420MM and the page format L120, W200. In order to make it usable with page size is A3. Unfortunately this did not work either.
The behaviour of the problem is when I tried to print with the device types that mentioned above then printer indicator comes to an error. And nothing comes out from the printer.
Just to be on the safe side I made a test from windows self test, it resulted success with A3 page size format. So from this point of the view I got a thought that somehow SAP (selected device types) is not able to send correct signal to Printer for page size A3, because on the printer information screen displays load Tray2 for A4 this is showing that SAP sends Printer a signal for page format A4.
I need help on how to make SAP (selected device type) send a correct signal to Printer in order to printout A3 page size format.
Quick reply will much be appreciated.

Hi,
At last i got a Solution to my Question.
The Problem is that in my SAP-Code they have been translated the PDF into 255 string.But i am retreiving using 132 string.So, i resolved in this way.
<b>For Each dr As DataRow In ds.Tables(0).Rows
Dim dataline As String = dr(0)
If dataline.Length < 255 Then
dataline = dataline.PadRight(255, " ")
End If
sb.Append(dataline)
Next.</b>
May be this Thread is useful to Others.

Recent bugs? Click when clicking off/Related to the Sort Artist/Album/Track

I've had my G5 for about a year now and it bit the dust, 4 days before my year was up :-D So I got it replaced but since then I have noticed something odd. I have clicking turned off but I can still hear it faintly in my headphones.
Also, I began tagging my library with Album Artist and using Artist for a featured musician or remixer. Well to keep my sanity, I used the Sorting options to keep everything together in the transition. Well, after I got about 500 tracks tagged, I plugged in my iPod to sync and I have multiple duplicate artist entries on my iPod. I remove the Sorting options and it's fine. Is this a bug or feature No seriously, has anyone else experienced this? I have the latest iTunes update.

I'm also sometimes getting some feedback when I change songs, a sound that ramps up then the track plays. Possibly hard drive spinning up? I have had this issue with my last iPod, I technically have until tomorrow until my full year is up so I may take it in again.

Complete my Album - track missing from download!

Hi
I bought a single a while back (Witchcraft - Pendulum) and iTunes offered me to complete my album. I did so, however, the album it downloaded is missing the track that I had originally (Witchcraft) as expected, but as it was a single and not part of the album, it is not included in the album, i.e. if I want to listen to the whole album on my iPod, it misses Witchcraft out because it is in its own album (a single).
Does this make any sense?
Thanks

Same thing has been happneing to me - last 4 or 5 downloads. Very spurious, 1 or two tracks just go missing - they never make it to my hard drive but show up as missing in itunes.
I've contacted Apple support each time and they have re-posted them to my account - but its a real pain. this last time it happened, apple support seemed a little more reluctant to re-post.
This is definitely a new bug in the system - I've downloaded successfully for years and only in the past 6 months have started to experience this.

Artist/album names missing when adding folder (but not all of them)

Yesterday I found iTunes couldn't locate the folder where I store MP3 downloads - ie. I got the dreaded '!' alongside most tracks. When I used the Add Folder command I ended up getting a duplicate of virtually every track.
However most of the duplicate tracks were only shown with the track number on the original album plus about 12-15 characters from the title (ie. character string used as a label for the MP3 file). There was no detail of the artist or album.
Given the large number of duplicates involved I decided to clear out the library and have just used Add Folder. Same outcome - 1/3rd of the tracks described in full; the other 2/3rds just show track number and some of the title.
Suggestions on (a) where I'm going wrong; and (b) whether I can use contents in the Previous iTunes library folder to recreate the library would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

As I've already said this question has been answered maybe no one is monitoring this topic but ... I've just worked out the reason the detail is missing is because the tracks which have limited detail are in WAV format.
This is where I am completely lost because they have all been downloaded from the iTunes store or from Amazon as MP3 files, and I'm not aware either of the download functions comes with an add-on called "automatically convert to WAV".
The irony is that this is quite convenient but if anyone can provide an explanation of how it is occurring then I would be interested to hear because I can't figure it out. May still trust my sanity, but not my memory!
