Sorting podcast on iPod by release date

  I have been googling solution for this problem but none of the solution that people suggesting really works. So the problem is I can sort podcasts by release date in iTunes but on my iPod I cannot. iPod automatically sorts all the episodes by name which is not what I want. I need a chronical order.
Is there any way to sort podcasts by release dates on iPod touch?
Thanks,

I'd also like to be able to sort contacts by Business->User (like iTunes does with albums->songs).
Address Book also needs some kind of "Business"-merging of all people inside a single business (so we don't have to repeat all information such as fax, URL, address, etc).

  • How can I sort an albums chart by release date on the latest version of iTunes?

    The last few days, I've noticed that there is no more the choice to sort an albums chart by release date or name. Is there a way to sort it that way? Thanks.

    Click here, back the computer up, install the DVD, and run Software Update twice.

  • How do you get podcasts to list by release date on iPhone?

    Read my whole question because I keep seeing people not doing so.
    So, podcasts through iTunes on the iPhone recently updated. Before when I downloaded podcast episodes, they would be by release date, in the music app under the specific podcast. For example my churches sermons. Now when I download them, they are no longer by date, but alphabetical order by the title of the episode, which messes up trying to listen to them in order. Everything is through the iPhone. Itunes on iphone and podcasts in theusic app is where i play them from. No sort options that I can see.
    Is there a way to fix this? So my stuff is in orderr? I'm noticing it with all the different podcasts I listen to so its not the XML file that's used to organize the podcasts. Unless the update put all the XML files out of date.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    In the past, I discovered the solution was that you must have at least ONE song in a playlist. No idea why. I would make playlists that had 10 podcasts but not until I added 1 song did the playlist, including the 10 podcasts, sync. Sadly, I recently reinstalled and am having the invisible podcast problem all over again, and this time adding 1 song doesn't work. But it might work for you.

  • When you show all albums, why can you only sort albums by best sellers, release date, etc., sometimes?

    Sometimes I can sort albums by release date and other times I don't have the option. Its frustrating. I tried to look in preferences but couldn't change it.

    I agree that Apple should improve the year field to be an actual date.
    I am not 100% happy doing this, but when you have multiple albums from a single artist for the same release year, a temporary solution is to chage the album title by adding an outline type letter before album titles for that year, so that they appear in the correct order:
    David Bowie
    1977
    a. Low
    David Bowie
    1977
    b. "Heroes"
    etc
    This could help in the short term until Apple changes that field.

  • IPod touch release date?

    I've been given multiple release dates.  I went to Best Buy, and the iPod touch 5 8, 16, and 64 gig models were in stock, but not the 32 gig.  The site went from "pre order" to "buy now".  However, there is still no shpping date given.  I sold my iPod 4 two weeks ago and just ordered and new 32 gig, and I really don't want to wait until the end of the month.  Anybody have any knowledge of when they will be shipping?

    No, I was in the store, looking at them.  They had different backs, controls on the sides, were thinner, and were 8, 16, and 64 gigs.
    This page; http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_ipod/family/ipod_touch/select lists two 5th gen Touch models, 32Gb & 64GB. They are new.
    This page; http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_ipod/family/ipod_touch/select_4thgene ration lists the 4th gen Touch models that are now available, the 16GB & 32GB. The 16GB is new, but still 4th gen!
    ...and this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353 lists the previous models of 4th gen Touch. Note that until now, there was no 16GB model, but there was the 8GB one, along with 32 & 64GB
    5th gen = New! 32GB & 64GB. In five different colours plus the special red one.
    4th gen = New/current! 16GB & 32GB in black or white. Note 16GB is New, but is 4th gen!
    4th gen = Up until now! 8GB, 32,GB, & 64GB, in black or white. Note 8GB is discontinued.
    So, no matter what you think you've seen, you were either, wrong, mis-informed or you have misunderstood.
    In the past, far too many people have made the same mistake with the 8GB, 2nd generation Touch, believing it was a 3rd gen. It wasn't!
    You are simply repeating this tosh.

  • Sorting podcasts on Ipod nano 3rd

    Is there a way to sort podcasts from oldest to newest, instead of the newest to oldest that it is currently set on? While I am working sometimes I am not able to switch to newest podcast before it automatically goes to the older one, so this would really help me out.
    Thanks.

    Here is my situation. I downloaded some podcasts from iTunes on my PC. I transferred them to my Mac so I could put them on my iPod. Although they were poscasts, they were still mp3s. I dragged them onto my iPod into the main library and listened to them, but now I can't delete them!
    When I plug my iPod up to update the library, they don't show up anywhere in the iPod library. But whwn the iPod is dosconnected, I can do a search and find them.
    When I click the iPod icon in iTunes and look at the disk usage, there are somethings taking up space as "other", around 138 MB, but I now have no way to delete them. I don't have this problem with any other mp3's, just these two that were Podcasts.
    Short of restoring the entire iPod and deleting everything, how can I delete these stupid MP3's.

  • 4th gen ipod touch release date

  • New iPod Touch Release Date

    Anyone heard when this will be released? Apple only says "October". That could be the 1st or the 31st. Anything ideas?

    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19855678#19855678
    Because other online stores say they are due Oct 15, Apple would surely release them at least a week before that. Hopefully they are relased this week. You may have noticed that if you go to buy an iPod touch 5 from the online apple store, the status has gone from "pre-prder" to "buy now."

  • Can you sort albums by release date, rather than year, in album view?

    I love the new album view in iTunes 11, but the only problem I have with it is sometimes albums are in the wrong order.
    For example, last year Green Day released a trilogy of albums called ¡Uno!, ¡Dos! and ¡Tré! but since they were released in the same year, they're ordered as ¡Dos!, ¡Tré, ¡Uno! when sorted by artist and then year which really doesn't sit right with me.
    In short, the sorting options for albums view are very limited, is there any way to extend them?
    Also I'm aware that I could, as a cheap fix, change the sorting in album to the release date backwards, but I'd rather not do that as it would make it a bit more troublesome for me to navigate my albums on my iPhone.
    Thanks!

  • How can I get column sorting to work again when column sort is stuck on release date in the different views (list, album list, and cover flow) in my PC?

    I can't sort using other columns because the sorting is stuck/ locked on release date. This is only true for my iTunes U Library. My other libraries and playlists for Music, Movies and TV Shows, Books can be sorted.

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.

  • When I download a podcast on my iPhone why is the release date missing? This really screws up the sort order.

    when I download a podcast on my iPhone why is the release date missing? This really screws up the sort order.

    Hello yung ron,
    It may be that your iPhone's set to sync automatically, which can potentially remove any music that's been added to the device. It may help to set the device to 'manual mode,' so that you have complete and total control over what content is on the device.

  • Itunes is not sorting my podcast playlist by 'Release Date'?

    I have a Macbook running Mac OS 10.5.8.  In iTunes 10.5.2 [11], I set up a playlist of my  podcasts sorted by 'Release Date' & have everything automatically sync to my 4th Generation iPod Touch which is running ios 5.0.1 [9A405].
    On my Macbook in iTunes with my iPod Touch attached by the iPod Touch cable, I see that my iPod touch is sorted by 'Release Date'.  But, when I look on my iPod Touch is not sorted by 'Release Date', but sorted by random? 
    On my macbook itunes does sort by 'Release Date', but not on my iPod Touch
    When I was running ios 4, I didnt have this problem, could it be a bug in ios 5.0.1?

    Hi Harold,
    I have a similar problem with my ipod nano, though the podcasts do not play in a random order when they get to the ipod; whererever I start to play the podcast, once that is finished, it automatically plays the previous episode instead of the next episode. Very annoying.

  • Sorting podcasts by date on Ipod on 4G Ipod

    I am wondering if there is anyway to change the playing sort order of my podcasts on my ipod. I can sort by Release Date in Itunes so the oldest ones are on top and play before the newer ones. On my Ipod, I would like it to do the exact same thing. In addition, I can only get my ipod to play the newest episode in the podcast and not move on to the next one. (IE, I want to start listening to the January release date ones then February release date ones without touching my Ipod.) Some of the February ones finished downloading before the January ones so date added sort doesn't work. I know smart playlists can do this, but seems like the Ipod should be able to do it without the hassle.

    When you go to Cover Flow you can scroll though the albums which are already sorted by the artists.
