Sorting problems since latest upgrade

I have my music playlists sorted on 'Sort Album Artist' so that I can keep Frank Zappa in the 'Z's and not in the 'F's etc. But ever since the last iTunes upgrade (to 8.0) it won't stay sorted on this field.
Playlists will sort happily enough if I click on the tab but as soon as I change views and go back again, they are sorted on Name instead (which is the first field on my playlists.
Has anyone else noticed this? Has anyone a solution?
Thanks,
Phil

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

I chat problem since Leopard upgrade.

I recently upgraded to Leopard, now i chat has an issue. When I click on a buddy, a window opens with my icon and a bubble, however when I type and hit return I see nothing. In addition when my buddy responds I see his/hers icon and bubble briefly then it disappears with no text.

I've been having this same problem since I upgraded to Leopard. Also my buddy list is grey and displays all my contacts online or not. The privacy features also are not accessible and say that I can't change them because I am not logged in, but I am logged in according to the main screen. I am behind a netgear router most of the time and connect wirelessly to an airport express. My provider is Comcast. I have changed the port to 443, tried the fix listed here, tried to fix it using onyx, and I'm sure more. At this point I am using Adium because I can't get iChat to work. I want to use iChat as I really like the new features and it was one of the reasons I upgraded to Leopard in the first place.

Nothing but problems since recent upgrade to Infin...

I recently upgraded to BT Infinity. Previously I had a wireless connection throughout the house. Since the upgrade I have had quite a lot of problems. The hub is now in a different room than with the previous BB. I found that;
1) Wireless not available in a few rooms
2) Internet connection keeps switching off on laptop + PC
I purchased a booster as advised by BT. This helps at times but then I realized that not all my issues were down to the wireless connection. I realize many different devices can interfere with the connection but prior to Infinity everything was fine. This is the only change in my house. There has been no new electrical devices.
Now the following happens;
a) Internet connection keeps going down on various devices - particularly at 11pm at night
b) At times I cannot even connect with an ethernet cable from hub to laptop
c) At times speedtest shows poor results
I've had various ideas suggested by the BT employee who is attached to my case, unfortunately nothing has improved the situation and I am getting extremely frustrated with the problem. The following has been done;
1) My hub has been replaced
2) Channels reset
3) Engineer has tried to remotely fix problem and also replaced some part of copper wire leading into house
BT have recently sent me 2 powerline adaptors to try and set my hub away from the openreach box in the room it was in previously as I had no problems prior to the upgrade. Unfortunatelly BT have been unable to talk me through this and obtain a broadband connection. The BT employee is trying to set it up differently from the conventional way which he said has worked for customers before. I am awaiting the original employee to telephone me back in a few days as he is off work and his colleagues are not sure of the set up.
I am also awaiting yet another Openreach engineer to call in a few days if the problem cannot be resolved.
Initially for the first few weeks it was a complete nightmare contacting BT and having to keep repeating my story and having various employees reset channels and work their way through a set script. However recently a set person seems to have been assigned to this case and has been very dilligently phoning me and trying to resolve the problem. This is the only thing that has kept me sane as I was getting so annoyed by having to phone and take potluck with their general phone number.
I would be pleased to hear from anyone with similar problems or suggestions to resolve this.
Many thanks.

I'd open a live chat and see if I could get them for free personally, but they are also very cheap at www.amazon.com
They are HD cables that support upto 1080p
GEEZ, I can't be the only person having this issue. I will try 1 call to them to see what they say. Thanks for your input.

Problems with latest upgrade from overdrive media

I think I need to uninstall overdrive media...the latest upgrade is creating havoc with my ability to download books from the library. It used to be easy, but now my device gets stuck in continuous download mode that never stops attempting to dowload something that appears to be finished. I have a 4th gen. Ipod touch. How do I uninstall it?

When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.

Lost Connections have recently become a problem since I upgraded

My sister and I call each other frequently from the same general location, and recently (since I upgraded) we drop connection seconds after the call starts). I believe there may be a problem with the phone part of the new software. Everything else is working well. I do wish it would work better as a phone. I mean that is what I bought it for.
The problem seems to happen when she calls using her old version of the software, to me running the new version. When I try to call back, it goes right into voicemail.

To be honest these are the solutions that may or may not work.
First thing I would try is rebooting the phone by holding the sleep/wake button and home button for 15 seconds until you see the white apple logo.
If that doesn't work I would restore from backup. If that doesn't work I would restore as new. If all else fails take it to your closest apple store they may replace the phone for a working one..

Itunes will not allow music to sync since latest upgrade

Trying to sync music to two different ipods and ipad. since downloading the latest itunes version, no music will sync to either device. I have checked selected songs (different for each device) and it will recognize 1755 songs but on the capacity bar, no audio is showing and when syncing, no music is transferred. I have tried restoring each device, all have latest upgrades....don't understand why it won't sync properly. any ideas out there?

this is a bug that came with the latest update. haven't seen any way of getting round it i'm afraid: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html

My screen is blinking since latest upgrade?

What causes screen to blink or flash? This started after latest upgrade. How can it be fixed?

OK, well that isn't very definitive. However you can try some basic resets like doing a PRAM reset and SMC resets. If you don't know how to do these then please click:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3603
You may need to do each up to 2-3 times for them to work.

My screen on iPhone won't rotate since latest upgrade

My screen on iPhone won't rotate since latest upgrade

Look in the status bar to see if you have accidently turned on the orientation lock. It would be an icon near the battery icon that looks like a small lock with a circular arrow around it. It will also be in the Control Center, when you swipe upwards from the bottom of the phone screen. Top row of icons, the last one on the right. White is on, black is off.
I've also asked the hosts to move your post to an iPhone forum, so you can get more assistance.

Since latest upgrade why does my iPhone and iPad battery usage seem greater?

Following the latest upgrade (April 2014) the battery usage on both iPhone and iPad is greater than before (50%+ in one day). Any ideas why or do I need to close anything?

I have WiFi problems since the upgrade to 10.10.2

Ever since the upgrade from 10.10.1 to 10.10.2 I find the system keeps dropping its WiFi connection and only rebooting both the computer and the modem fixes it although sometimes only after several attempts.

Try installing the 10.10.2 combo update

Since latest upgrade display distorting standard layout eg size of h2 to text is disproportionately large so reading newspaper sites is now a problem

None of the zoom functions address this problem.
It is not that all the text is too large or too small, but that the headings in relation to the text are now too big. This means that if I decrease the zoom level to one that the headings appear normal then the text is articles is too small. This is a consistent problem across for instance news papers sites such as the Guardian (UK) but even on the standard google search page. ie if I reduce the search box text size to the level I normally have, then the text of the search results are far too small. And even on the wordpress sites that I maintain I have this problem. The headings and sub headings now appear too large in relation to the text size.
So not only is this a problem for using other sites, but means I no longer have confidence in using Firefox when setting up styles etc..
Any ideas as to what the problem might be?

wouldn't it make more sense to offer 2 versions of the browser. One for those using high resolution displays and one for those that dont.
Most ordinary users will accept an automatic update and then not know what to do.

Since latest upgrade I have 2 problems 1. fast dial didn't work, but has been fixed with changing the version. This happened before. Now the big problem is when I attempt to upload pics Facebook or attach documents to e-mail firefox crashes. HELP!

tried several suggestions. Nothing works

HP Scanner problems since Mavericks Upgrade.

Has anyone else had a similar problem? I have a HP ScanJet G4050. Since upgrading to Mavericks on my i-Mac, I can scan documents and they show up in the scanning software, but if I try to print or save the document I get a striped page, no usable information. I checked out HP's website, but there are no drivers for Apple products. Are there any options or work arounds?

Usually I use Chrome. And I checked already to confirm I had the latest version of Adobe Flash installed. I also tried playing videos in Safari to see if it was a browser issue and had the same problem. I'll try your Safari fix though and will let you know if that helps at all. Would you know a similar fix for Chrome? Thanks for the suggestion.
