Sort music alphabetically on ipad 2 ios7.04

Do not have a more tab on my music app and my music does not sort alphabetically. It sorts by artist alphabetically even though the artist tab is NOT selected.

Resolved by Reset All Settings - Thanks!

Deleting music from iPad using IOS7

I have synced my iPad running IOS7 and I have manually manage my music checked. I have no music checked to sync to iPad. Why is music still appearing on my iPad?

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

Sorting music by "Album by Artist / Year" on iPod touch (3rd gen.)

Hello there,
In my music library, I have plenty of discographies per artist (eg. Bob Dylan's, Coldplay's etc...), and am finding a bit of a pain to sort it the way I want it on my iPod.
I've synced my new iPad with iTunes and copied all the music across, and when I look through the music on the iPad and select an artist, each of their albums are ordered by the year they were released in (and this happened automatically). I find this a much better way of sorting music to how I did it previously (i.e. each album ordered alphabetically).
Now, my question: How the heck do I get my iPod touch to do this?
On iTunes, I figured out you can sort the iTunes library in this way by selecting an artist in grid view, then clicking "Album by Title" above the column with album artwork and changing it to "Album by Artist / Year", however this only works for that specific artist's albums - to get your iTunes library to sort all albums this way you seemingly have to do this for each artist. Is there any way to make my whole library sort music this way without having to do that?
Essentially, how can I get my iPod to sort music the way my iPad does?
Thanks.

Hello,
As far as I can see, you can't sort the order of music on the iPod Touch. It is always sorted alphabetically.
Maybe you can suggest that as a feature to Apple.

Why can't I sort music?

Why can't I sort music on my iPod when it's connected to PC? I can sort the music in my library by any column.

I have the same issue since the latest update. I can no longer sort my music by song title on my iPad. When I click on "Songs", it is sorted by Artist. The songs aren't even sorted alphabetically by artist in this mode. I checked on my computer and I have my music "Library" sorted by song title, not by artist.
This is very frustrating when trying to locate a song title.
Any help?

I have an ipad and just bought a second one for my daughter and she wants all my music on her ipad. We both have our own itunes accounts and music match wont let me put music on hers. how do i get around this?

I have an ipad and just bought a second one for my daughter and she wants all my music on her ipad. All the music is under my itunes account yet she has her own itunes account so she can have her own apps and purchase apps with gift cards (She's only 9)
I subscibe to music match under my account but it wont let me put my music on her ipad under hers or even my itunes account. I get some sort of 90 day error message. How do i get around this so I can let her have my music on her ipad?

iTunes Match is not sharable across Apple IDs. The best way to get the music on her iPad is to leave hers signed into her Apple ID on the iTunes Store and sync via USB.

While updating my ipad to ios7, I could not pass the terms and conditions screen where I had to agree or disagree. It just didn't move pass that screen. I can't do anything to go forward or back. It's just stuck there.

Try to reset the device:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

How do I store music on my ipad and use music match?

Using an iPad2 with Music Match, how can I store music on my iPad as well?
Using iTunes 11, I no longer seem to have the ability add music to my iPad. If I try to manually drag and drop them onto my iPad an error says " Some of the files were not copied to the iPad because iTunes Match is enabled on this iPad."
I travel for a living and discovered on Thursday whilst on a plane that I no longer have music on my iPad and whilst on an international flight, there was no way of accessing "my iCloud" from within the real clouds!!"
I would like to be able to store music on my iPad for when I am offline, and still access my other music when I am online.
Is this possible and if so how ? All assistance appreciated!

Thank you so much for the response. This half sorts out my issue, as turning off Musicmatch means I can load music onto my iPad, but the minute I turn it back on to access my library whilst travelling I will lose what I have loaded as it comes up saying " all music will be erased".
I really apprecaite your time, so will just have to live with what I load. Seems weird that Apple wouldn't consider people want to listen to music on planes or in Non - wifi zones??
Thanks again!

ITunes Not Sorting Music Properly

Hello, I usually sort my music alphabetically by the artists' last name. Recently, I am noticing that for some reason, iTunes is mixing up some songs in the wrong spot (ie. placing artists whose names start with W in the middle of the B's, etc.) I have the latest version of iTunes and have tried re-entering the artists' name manually, but nothing seems to cure this problem. Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas? Thanks!!

You're welcome.

Very slow music player on iPad

Very very slow iPad music player on iPad? I see loads of questions on this but no answers. Have switched off music match and really anything that could be causing the delay. Currently trying to reset the iPad device but if there are any quick answers out there, please let me know. Have a very large music collection but willing to only use subset on iPad if required (anything to get the performance back to normal). Thanks.....

Odder still would be to hang around here preaching to those who really don't care when you could and should be preaching to Apple, who would of course value and appreciate your input.
Mediocrity represents your opinion, which will get its due weight. As for apps that cost $, well ..... professionals would actually expect to have to pay for their tools. Why we even have all sorts of tax laws set up which will encourange you to do just that.

My Recently Added is now sorted by Alphabetical not Date added

Hi there,
So i just plugged my iphone in to update my music and i went to click recently added to listen to some but for some reason it was sorted in alphabetical rather than date added, i really need the function of date added to i can get all the newest music i put on.
If anyone can help that would be great

I have just redone my recentl added playlist and ordered it by date. When i sync to my iPhone it displays in the same date order
Try recreating the recently added playlist
Here is my Smart Playlist. Looking at it again if you see i have the limit items selected by most recently added. Maybe that is what is different

Unwanted Scrambling of Music Order on iPad

Ever since I upgraded to iOS 7, I have been unable to sync albums to my iPad without the order scrambling. For example, I just put an album on my iPad and the order is showing as 2, 7, 9, 14, 18, 5, 12, 22, 1, 4, 15 etc. I do not have scramble on (neither on iTunes nor in Music on the iPad). Nor are the tracks in any kind of alphabetic or numeric order. I've checked in Settings, I've looked all over iTunes, I've tried dragging. Nothing works. Short of writing a new playlist for every album, how can I get music onto my iPad in track order?

Never mind, got it. Had to restart ipad and log out and back in ince again and finally music updats and pulls all the songs from the library, unnecessary quirk that!

I cannot delete songs from Music on my iPad 2 iOS 7

I swipe from right to left and choose delete. The song is still there with a cloud and down arrow. How can I remove songs from Music on the iPad 2?

I have spent the last two nights trawling forums for an answer and what I have finally found had worked, wasn't actually mentioned anywhere so I feel like I have to share it in case it helps someone else, I was going crazy!!
Firstly, you will need to put all of the music you currently want on your ipad into a playlist in itunes on the computer you're syncing with. This is a sort of start again from scratch type approach seeing as nothing else seemed to work.
1. I turned off my home sharing from settings - music
2. I went to settings - general - usage - music - edit (in top right) - swipe to delete all music
3. Connected to a computer and opened itunes.
4. On the summary page, scroll down to options and select manually manage music and videos. Click APPLY.
5. On the music page untick the sync music box CLICK APPLY.
6. On the on this ipad page, highlight all music (ctrl A) and DEL - it will ask if you want to remove, click ok.
7. Still on the on this ipad page, see the autofill line at the bottom? Click on settings at the right hand side, there is a sliding bar to determine how much space you want to leave free on your ipad for disk space. Then simply select the playlist with all your music in that you want on your ipad to autofill from.
8.Click SYNC.
Huzzah!
I hope thats helped someone else I was literally tearing my hair out over it. It's worked for me, although there is still some music on the on my ipad list, in a faded grey, which isnt actually on my ipad. So thats annoying but not the end of the world.
Apple - it really shouldnt be this difficult!

How do I delete albums from my iPad in ios7

How do I delete albums from my iPad in ios7 ...

The instruction should read "Settings > General > Usage > Music > All Music > Swipe right to left > Delete".
But doing so may have the undesirable effect of screwing up artwork and/or playback stability (maybe this was fixed, but this method cause a lot of grief in iOS 6 and early in iOS 7).
But try this -- connect the iPad to iTunes, and if you're not in manual sync mode then enable that and apply the change. Then while connected to iTunes, navigate the contents of the iPad through iTunes and see if you can delete the albums that way.
