Sort by grouping whilst seeing ALL album art (list view)

I recently bought all of the ABBA albums *The Albums (Bonus Track Version) [Remastered]* which unfortunately all have the same album name and the individual albums are denoted using grouping...
Is there any way to view all the albums with their separate album covers in list view or am I going to have to edit the album info...?

Two and a half years on, the album artist feature is still not supported by iPods? What the ****? Is this even on a 'todo' list at Apple?
I'm really happy with iTunes, the album artist feature is a godsend, but seriously, why can't iPods support it?
I quite agree... In the meantime you might find my previous post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums useful, it details workarounds for this and other quirks in the iTunes/iPod system.

  • How can I see my albums in list view on itunes 11.1.5

    I used to be able to see and sort my albums in list view.  With this latest release all I can find are my album covers.  I want to see them in text, and sortable by name, artist, etc as I can with songs.  I've checked Show List View for All Media in my preferences.  Thanks for any help with this.

    I believe the closest you can come is look at your songs in Songs.  There you can sort by albums.
    The album view does not contain a list view any longer.

  • See all albums

    Hi
    I am VERY new to Apple products.  I am learning they are very confusing lol.
    Anyway, I transferred one album to my itunes to my iPod touch just to make sure it would work before I went and transferred everything.  The first one I did was Aerosmith album: Big Ones.
    I am at my music menu on my ipod touch now, went to "albums" and I cannt for the life of me figure out how to see all albums (just like all artists or all songs).  It's sort of stuck on Aerosmith Big Ones.  How the heck do I get rid of it? lol.  I tried sliding my finger across the screen, up, down, whatever.  Nothing works.  I would like to see the albums not just the song or artist
    Thanks, sorry for being such a noob.  I am sure I will have more questions.

    I've been working on an Applescript to do this. I have a first cut, it works, it's not very fast in fact on large libraries with large albums it can seem painfully slow. But it does find all the albums a particular image is in.
    Right now it has to be run out of the Applescript editor, turning it into a standalone app makes it even slower which turns out to be a know issue with Applescripts but I digress.
    So if you're interested and feel comfortable enough opening and running out of the Applescript editor let me know.

  • Hi, Does anyone know how to get all album art to import from Itunes.

    My Itunes Library/Media states that all album art is present and accounted for but when I sync with Itunes half of my album art on the Ipad is blank.

    Hi WIll_Maveric
    To get album art to an album on iTunes:
    Go to iTunes
    Right Click on the album you want to get the art for
    Click album artwork
    If the songs/album can be found on the iTunes database it will add automatically
    If the songs/album cannot be found on the iTunes database it will not add automatically, so I would suggest you go to the internet find the image.
    Copy it and then go into iTunes
    Right click on the album/song
    Click on Get Info
    Click on Artwork
    Paste the image into the box (Command v) or (Control v)P
    Then click OK
    Go to your device and sync it again
    You will have the artwork there.
    Many Thanks for your question and allowing me to help you today.

  • Smart playlist on iphone doesn't display all songs in "list" view

    So first, how I organize my mp3s, so you understand how I do things.
    I have one "main" smart playlist that I use. It's only rule is to only include songs that are a part of a certain album.
    I then edit every song I want in that playlist to be in that album.
    In iTunes, this playlist has 136 songs. When I sync, ALL of them transfer, and ALL of them are on the phone.
    When I play the playlist on the phone, ALL of them do play. I can cycle through all 136 of them.
    My problem is this: When I enter the "playlist view" (I dont know what it's called, but THIS view: http://i.imgur.com/z4ZIK.jpg ), not all songs display anymore. I used to have all 136 songs displaying, and I could scroll to any of them to play. Now, its split up in chunks. What I mean by that is, maybe 20 songs are displayed, and if the playlist random shuffles to a song in the playlist but NOT part of that 20, that song may be a part of, say, 6 other songs in the playlist, or it may be solo in that view. All the songs still play, all 136, they're all still on the playlist and shuffle WILL play them all eventually, but they do NOT all appear in this "playlist view" (again, I dont know exactly what its called, but I'm talking about this screen: http://i.imgur.com/z4ZIK.jpg ). There also seems to be no pattern as to what songs are displayed. I have no idea why they're seperated in chunks like this.
    Why don't all my 136 songs appear on this screen anymore? I thought maybe the phone or itunes is sorting them differently now, maybe by album art or something, so I made sure ALL songs are COMPLETELY IDENTICAL in terms of info aside from song name and artist name. ALL songs have the same artwork, album, album artist, grouping, composer, comments, they are ALL set to "part of a compliation" (I have also tried setting them all to NOT be part of complilation).
    All I want is all 136 songs in my playlist to be displayed on that screen. It used to, but as of maybe a few months ago it started doing this. I'm not sure if I explained the problem correctly but that's the best I can do.

    Well, the saga continues (some people must be getting a laugh at me talking to myself).
    Turns out my PlayList which was supposed to read...
    - Genre is Ambient
    - Media Kind is Music
    - Last Play is not in the last 60 days
    - Limit to 1 hour selected by random
    - Live Updating
    ... actually said "- Last Play *is* in the last 60 days"
    When I changed that and resync'd it worked, however it still doesn't explain why the two playlists (iTunes and iPod) were totally different.
    Oh well.  Thanks for being my shrink for the day and letting me vent.

  • Why can't I see the calendar in list view with iOS 7.1?

    Since I've upgraded to iOS 7.1 I can't see my calendar in list view. When you click on the search button as you used to, it only works as a search rather than pulling up the list view.  If you search for a letter then you get a list of all entries that have that letter included but not the entire list of entries. I'm lost without this, how do I get around it?

    to the left of the search button in day view are dots with lines.  Click that.  You should see the list view.

  • In iphone 4 mobile me calander not showing all events in list view

    i have iphone 4 Mobile me calendar not showing all events in list view where as showing all events in month/day view. why so & how to resolve

    It started about a week ago. The "From" drop-dow is now missing in Mac Mail. It should appear beneath the subject line. I was working with MobileMe Chat support for about 3 hours. They cannot solve the problem and have now escalated it to the "Senior Advisor Team."

  • How can I display all album art of my library in iTunes

    All my music tracks in my library contain the respective album art within their ID3-tags and it is perfectly displayed in the lower left corner window when I select or play a track.
    What I really would like to do is to browse through my library using the album art, not the text-based endless lists (title, album, interpret, genre etc.), then click on a cover, see the tracks and select one.
    Is there a feature in iTunes already that can do that or a plug-in somewhere in the market ? (I do not need a tool that collects album art like eyejamz, but a tool to display the art I already have)
    Thanks a lot for any feedback

    Bakergirl,
    You can use iTunes to remove the beginning or end of a song (or both) by setting the Start and Stop times. 
    But to remove a section from the middle and keep the rest, you will need an audio editor such as Audacity.

  • Lost all album art after moving library to new HD

    So, I found that my iTunes library was growing too big for my primary hd. I added an extra internal HD and followed the instructions on how to move my iTunes library found here (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301748). Everything seemed to come over ok (playlists, play counts) except for my album art. All of it has gone missing. I can't possibly add all that art in again. Can anyone tell me how to get my art back (I still have the original iTunes folder on my primary HD) or what I did wrong in moving the library.
    Thanks
    P.S. I'm running iTunes 6.0.1 on a G5 with 10.4.3
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    OK Ive attempted all the suggestions mentioned here but have still had no luck. I deleted all the original iTunes docs on my Mac and rebooted etc but iTunes is still refusing to ignore the new iTunes folder on my new external HD, even though it is already connected.
    I also tried to import the songs back into iTunes by creating a new iTunes folder on my ext HD but it just seems to create a duplicate of the folder Im trying to get iTunes to recognise and I cant see the point in waiting another 12hrs to import the songs again just so iTunes can recreate a duplicate of what I already have !
    Heres how Ive directed iTunes to the folder using prefs :
    NewHD/Music/iTunes/iTunesMusic
    and then in the iTunesMusic folder are the artists folders and then inside of them are the album folders for each artist.
    I also had a bunch of other stuff in my iTunes folder that I have tried iTunes with the items still in the folder and them taken out, heres what they are :
    Album Artwork Folder (But this has been recreated on my Mac since I reset iTunes)
    iTunes Export Text File
    iTunes Library Data File (Again recreated on my Mac since resetting iTunes)
    iTunes Music Library.xml File (Again recreated on my Mac since resetting iTunes)
    Previous iTunes Libraries Folder containing 3 iTunes Library Data Files named iTunes 4 Music Library, iTunes Library 2005-9-8 and iTunes Library 2006-09-12.
    As I have said I have tried iTunes both with these files and without unless Im using them in the wrong place.
    Can any please possibly help me with my situation and the placement of the right files in the right place as I do not wish to have to go through the process of re-importing especially when all iTunes is going to do is recreate something that I already have ... many thanks

  • I Can't See any album art on my ipod Please help

    For some rerason all of my album artwork won't show up on my ipod anymore. The only way to make it show up is to put the album art on in the library before putting it on my ipod but I have over 1700 songs and it is not worth deleting them to do that. I tried clicking the box to show album art so that it won't show covers and then reapplying it but that won't work. I used to be able to put album art even on files that were already on my ipod. Is that still possible?

    there is a work around. i had the same problem

  • How come itunes does not get all album arts works reply asap thanks

    like for
    kayne west- graduation album
    it doesnt download the album artwork for it
    but for others it gets it
    i mean the album is already in itunes store
    whats going on
    can you link me the contact page for itunes store

    iTunes will connect to Apple's servers to get the album art. As for iTunes not getting the art for all your albums, I don't know why this happens. Usually this happens if the albums are not on the iTunes store - but your case seems to be different.
    Here's what I do: If you really want your cover art, you can use Google's image search to manually download it. In iTunes' grid view, right-click on the album in question, click "Get Info" and then say "Yes". In the Info tab, double click on the white box under "Artwork" (in the lower right corner) and manually navigate over to your artwork file. Select it, press open or double click, then click OK. Since you selected the whole album, iTunes will embed the artwork into all the files on your album. The next time you sync, it will also appear on your device(s).
    Have a good time getting your artwork! Hope this helps
    Edit: There may be times when iTunes will not edit your files after you click OK. This may be a problem with the permissions of the folder where your files are located. Let me know if this happens.

  • Can't see all albums on iTunes when I sync my iPhone

    Hi. Everytime I launch iPhoto it says photo library has to be repaired and it does it every time. In addition It doesn't sync with my iPhone as iTunes does not see the albums I made on iPhoto and can't share photos. Can anybody  help out please? Many thanks!

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards

  • Front Row not displaying all Album Art

    Hi, I recently bought a Macbook Pro and imported all the music I had to it. I started downloading all the album arts for all my albums, and finally placed them all in order. They look perfect in iTunes in Coverflow.
    Then, when I started Front Row, I noticed that not all of my songs displayed an Album Art, only some of them. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

  • 70% of all album art disappeared??

    You gotta be kidding me! I recently had to get a new hard drive. But I had to make a copy of my iTunes file folder & drop it back into the iTunes library. This is the only thing I can think of that may have wiped away the album art but only about 30% were gone. So I'm trying to figure out what happened & is there anyway to add the art back a little faster than going album by album adding the art back?

    i know that you can select all in itunes and then choose "get album artwork"
    it got all my album artwork for me...
