The Artists in my Itunes are ordered incorrectly, Completely!

Hi,
My itunes library has gone slightly strange. The artists order has changed, it seems that they are now being ordered by artist surname for some of them, but there are some that are completley out of order. Patrick Wolf for instance, comes at the beginning of my library. I've checked all the information under "Get Info" but it says Patrick Wolf under both Artist and Album Artist. The ID3 tags are v2.3. I've tried everything, reformating the ID3, converting them into AAC, MP3 etc. Nothing seems to work.
Help!

I take it you mean the artist list in the browser? If not sorting as Album by Artist may fix things. Control over which items appear where in each sorted list can be gained using the sort fields such as Sort Artist, Sort Album etc. Turn on these columns so that you can see if there are any unexpected values in them causing your problems.

With the latest version of itunes, are you able to search your library by purchase date?

With the latest version of itunes, are you able to search your library by purchase date? My prior itunes software had Name, Time, Artist, Album, Genre, Rating, Plays and Purchased. With Version 11.0.3 of itunes, 'Purchased' is not a tabbed option to sort. Can this be added?
Thanks.

Hey jeffwcincy,
Great question, we simply need to check "Purchased Date" from the View Options menu.
In iTunes 11, click the "View" menu and choose "Show View Options". Located under "Stats" is the "Purchase Date" option.

How do i change the artist view in itunes 11 back to the original view?

How do i change the artist view in itunes 11 back to the original or pre itunes 11 view?

You can't. iTunes 11 has different ways of viewing your library from earlier builds. You can restore some of the look/function of the old version by turning on the menu bar (ctrl-b), sidebar (ctrl-s) and also clicking the magnifying glass then unticking Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
If that isn't enough the see this post on how to roll back to iTunes 10.7.

If your iMac has a PowerPC processor, Leopard OS 10.5.x is the max OS. If your iMac has an Intel processor, it can run Snow Leopard OS 10.6.x or possibly higher.
Once we know your iMac model, we can better recommend what OS X version.

Dear Experts,
I Developed Screen-exit For IW51 t.codeTypically the custom fields are displayed in the notification on a separate tab, or at the bottom of the u201CGeneralu201D or u201CMainu201D tab. These are configuration decisions that could be made in the build phase.
Sets of custom fields need to be added based on the notification type. The following table provides a list and details of the custom fields required. The table to be extended is the VIQMEL table (to be verified by developer).
Also to extend header fields on the notification you need to include them in the include CI_QMEL where OPEX M&I has already fields in.
All fields should go on the notification header. There are no custom fields on the task or activity level.
All fields should be reviewed for consistency with the M&I design, specifically, Thomas Brothers, Atlas Sheet, district code. See Dale Alano.
Please any Body Helped Coding For this, Already i Created Customfields , I design Subscreen also using Enhancement QQMA0001. Using Exit name EXIT_SAPMIWO0_008 USIN SUBSCREEN 0104 PLEASE ANY BODY help me Coding for this IW52

Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.

Artists not shown in the "Artists view" on iTunes 11

On iTunes 11, in the "Artists view", the artists list on the left is only based on the album artists.
The problem is that the artists themselves are not shown in this list if for example a track is tagged with different "Artist" and "Album artist".
How to fix this ?

Go to the Songs view, enable the Column Browser from the menu if needed, then adjust the settings of :
View > Column Browser > Use Album Artists and
View > Column Browser > Group Compilations
to suit your needs. For some more thoughts on iTunes organization see Grouping tracks into albums.

Will the artists videos from iTunes Festival 2014 be made available to purchase?

I see that the artists videos currently on iTunes show the full concert for iTunes Festival 2014 - when these are no longer available to view for free will you make them available to purchase?
Thanks!

We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple. Presumable it will need agreement from the artists/rights-holders before if/when they might become available in a country's store

HT203163 I received an iPad Air for Christmas and tried to sync this device with iTunes on my MacBook Pro (OSX system 10.6.8). A message popped up that I needed to download the latest version on iTunes in order to be able to sync the two devices.

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes on my MacBook Pro and now when I open iTunes I can not access the iTunes store; however, I can access the Apps store. I have tried reinstalling iTunes. I have tried changing the pop up/cookie settings in Firefox and Safari. I have logged out and also shut down my MacBook. I have tried changing the Firewall settings on my MacBook. I have googled possible ways to get the iTunes store to work and nothing has helped so far. Please help.

It will never automatically update. You always will ahev to tell it to update. it will never update unless you tell it to.
The pics and music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases. The ipod is not a backup device.
Cop everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

HT1947 Where do I find Remote on the "tab bar" in iTunes in order to punch in my 4 digit code from iPhone (to pair and home share)?

I've already configured iTunes to share libraries at home...but I can't seem to find where to punch in the 4 digit code that is provided from my iPhone.To be honest, I am extremely frustrated at this point! Please give me an answer that will tell me WHERE exactly this "TAB BAR" is located. Of course I habve the app Remote...but where on earth do I find this to enter a code?!! Getting very annoyed.
I've seen other comments and questions exactly like mine whilst Googling for answers...but they are all answered with jibberish and cockiness. No real detail. All in all--there are NO answers and I am not a happy camper.
Thank you for your time.

Hi, if you have switched on your 'Home sharing' on both itunes and your device, your device should show up in your itunes side bar and below the list of contents on ur device you will find the remote icon. click it and it will prompt you to enter the passcode. If you can't find this then
Here's what to check for:
Lunch itunes
Go to Edit
Click preferences
on the General Tab, you'll noticed that 'Shared libraries' isnt checked. that's fine you will fix this.
Now click on Sharing Tab if u have a message about Bonjour service not running then all you need do is enable Bonjour Service on you computer.
For Windows 8 users:
Right click 'Computer'
Click on 'Manage'
Double click 'Services and applications'
Double click 'Services'. This will display a list of background services/processes running on ur PC.
Scroll down to 'Bonjour Service' and right click.
Click properties. In the pop up box, change the start up type to 'AUTOMATIC'
click Start
Apply
close the box
restart pc
lunch itunes
connect itunes and device to same wifi
Do the 'Home Sharing' thing again and you will find all as i explained in my first paragraph.
Sorry I have no idea where Services is located in mac or what it is called.
Thank you.

I can't get audiobooks to sync to my iPhone 4s running iOS 6. I can't even find the audiobooks tab in iTunes in order to enable syncing of them.

I am not sure if it is because I am blind and just can't see the audiobooks tab on my iTunes screen, but my screen reading software can't find it either. None of the audiobooks will sync. I have tried turning iTunes Match off and on and it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

Hey, nickstandford26.
To sync Audiobooks from your computer to your iOS device, we'll want to follow the basic syncing instructions outlined in this article:
iOS: Syncing with iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386
Specifically, what we are looking for is the "Books" tab at the top of iTunes (grouped together with Summary, Music, etc). Audiobooks have moved to this "Books" tab.
Once on the Books tab, there are two separate sections for syncing regular digital Books and Audiobooks. Make sure that the "Sync Audiobooks" checkbox is checked and choose to either sync all or selected audiobooks. Once these changes are applied, the Audiobooks will be transferred to your device for your enjoyment!
Happy Listening,
Matt M.
