Sorting artist names different with English and German iTunes

I just got a iPod and theres only one thing that bothers me. I used to use OS X with English language and then artists are sortet after the name, ignoring the "the" in many names ("the Beatles" sorted under "B"). I recently switched the laguage to German and then all the artist with "the" in the name (like "the Beatles" ) are sorted under "T" in iTunes and on my iPod. Is is possible to change this? I want to use german language on my Mac, but I still want the artists names sorted like they used to be.
I´m using iTunes 7.0.2 and OS X 1.4.3.

You will want to refer to this article in the Apple Knowledge Base which explains the new sorting rules that have been introduced in recent versions of iTunes.
To workaround it, you will have to make use of the also recently introduced Sorting tab that is described at the bottom of the above-referenced article.
You can get "The Who" sorted as "Who" by entering Who in the Artist Sort field.
Information you enter in the Sort fields will not change what is displayed for those items, only how it is sorted.

    I would like to know how to make my iTunes recognize "The Who" as "Who (The)" but I don't want it to say Who, The in my library. How do I do this?

  • Im looking for a good note app with pen for taking notes ( in english and german )during business trips. Can anyone help

    I'm looking for a good note app with pen function for taking notes ( in English and German ) during business trips. Can anyone help?

    Really sorry to hear about this, particularly when you're putting your life on the line. But Apple cannot track your iPhone in any way unless you had set up Find My iPhone prior to it being lifted.
    It's possible that AT&T might be able to do something, but it's probably that they cannot track it, or will not without a request from an authorized law enforcement agency, but rather would only disable the device. You'll have to try and find a way to contact AT&T directly and ask if they can do anything to help you; the chances of any AT&T employee in a position to help you spotting this thread it pretty small.
    Good luck, stay safe, and come home soon.

  • About 'Sort Artist' name

    Hi
    i am trying to find out,
    as some of my songs' "sort artist" is grey in color (instead of black),
    and if the "sort artist" content word is grey in color, it will automatically sort songs with same ARTIST name to have the same "sort artist" name.
    EG: if the ARTIST name is The Pussycat Dolls, and the "sort artist" name is Pussycat Dolls (grey in color instead of black), all songs ARTIST name with 'The Pussycat Dolls' will automatically change the "sort artist" name to Pussycat Dolls.
    EG: if the ARTIST name is The Pussycat Dolls, and the "sort artist" name is Pussycat Dolls (black in color), all songs ARTIST name with 'The Pussycat Dolls' will not automatically change the "sort artist" name to Pussycat Dolls.
    May I know how to set the "sort artist" name to become grey color so that it will automatically change the "sort artist" name for all ARTIST with the same name?
    Anyone's soonest help will be appreciated.
    Thank you
    Grace Tang

    Further to my question, when I plug in and select my iPad 2 I don't have the same problem.  I have restored the settings on my iPod Touch and updated both iTunes and iPod Touch software and restarted my iPod touch.  Nothing has made any difference.

  • Music albums no longer have the artist name associated with it

    I updated to IOS 5 and In transferrig all my music to the ipad1, some of the albums no longer have the artist name associated with it..So when I search by artist name, it only shows they have one album when it should be two..
    Also switching between songs, artist, album is very very painfully slow..seems like the music app hangs sometimes.
    Tried many times resyncing and deleting but didn't work..Anybody experiencing these problems??

    I have the same problem, and after hours of trying to figure out the problem i finally did!! Its going to be a pain in the BUTT, but its the only way. :/
    1. Look for the song file.
    2. Right click and choose prefences
    3. Go to details and edit the information
    -  "Title" aka songs name
    -  "Album artist"
    - "Album"
    -The rest of the stuff can be filled in if you want
    4. Click OK
    5. Drag it into itunes
    Hope this help. ;D

  • My Ipad and Iphone both are a mixture of german and english.  I have changed the language and region to english and US but it still has a mixture of english and german.  Please help.

    My Ipad and Iphone are both in a mixture of english and german.  I have tried changing settings by going to international and setting the language to english and the region to the US.  It did not change.  I then turned the phone off completely and then resetting.  It did not change.  Can someone please help?

    Where are you seeing German ? If it's the two stores (iTunes and the App Store) then as far as I know they can't be changed - they will be in the language of the country where your account is based (if they aren't correct then try logging out of your account by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in).

  • Changed artist name to 'last, first' and some don't sort by last.

    I'm running iTunes 11.1.4.62 on Windows7 looking at songs sorted by artist.  I changed Eric Clapton to Clapton, Eric.  Three and only three of the songs are still sorting as if they start with "er".  One was purchaced on 6/9/2009 the other two on 10/10/2012 and some Clapton songs were purchaced or added before, after or between those dates.  What's happening? 

    What did you change, the Artists field on the Info tab?

  • Capitalization in artist name different in iTunes and on iPhone

    I recently found that when I change the capitalization of an artist's name in iTunes, that change does not carry over to my iPhone when I put the music on the phone.
    For example, I had the artist Built to Spill classified as "Built To Spill" in iTunes, so I changed the artist name to "Built to Spill."
    But when I put their albums onto my iPhone, it lists them as "Built To Spill" with the capital T, even though I changed it.
    I'm not sure why my iPhone isn't recognizing the change in capitalization. I'm really nitpicky when it comes to organizing my music, so this is really annoying to me. Please help!

    I also have the same problem as you. I changed "Panic! at the Disco" to "Panic! At the Disco" on my iTunes but it didn't change when it was synced on my iPhone. Help!

  • HELP! iPod sorting artists that start with "The" under "T"

    OK, so I synced my iPod classic last night, and now ALL artists that start with "The" are listed alphabetically under "T". Prior to last sync, it had never done this. I didn't change any setting, the only reason for the sync was to add a podcast that had downloaded. It also appears that the sorting feature is no longer ignoring punctuation, because "Weird Al" Yankovic is now alphabetically first, as opposed to under "W" where he was previously. What happened, and how do I get it back to normal?
    Thanks

    Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
    It should sort itself out if you reset your iPod, otherwise you will need to do a complete restore. If you are not familiar with those terms take at look at http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/

  • SQL Script working differently with 8i and 9i

    Hi
    I am facing strange problem with my simple SQL script called from a shell script. It bahaves differently with ORACLE 8.1.7.4 and 9.2.0.1. The machine is same.
    sqlplus -s / @Tech.sql WKC625 11 11 '11 22' ""
    This is working with 9i but it does't work with ORACLE 8.
    Actually what happens is that the argument in single quotes (') is taken as 2 separate argument.
    The Tech.sql is :
    spool add
    insert into TECH values ('&1','&2','&3','&4','&5','');
    commit;
    quit
    I tried putting double quotes also. Is something got changes between ORACLE 8 and 9i.
    Please help
    Surendra

    Are you sure it works in 9?
    If you are using UNIX, then the O/S will strip the quotes while processing the arguments. You need to use 2 single quotes around 11 22, just as you have around the empty string at the end.
    I believe that Windows does the same, but I do not use windows.
