The latest version of iTunes doesnt allow me to click on the song titles heading and locate the desired song from my Purchases. Are any others experiencing this?

Question

Is anyone else having difficulty searching for their desired song using the latest version of iTunes? it used to be that I could click on song titles and just type in the first three or four letters and it would go straight to my song. This is no longer the case.

Hi Hale,
Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resource below provides an overview of the new iTunes 12 interface.  If you are looking for a song in your library, you can click on the My Music tab at the top of the page.  At the top-right corner of the window, choose to view your music by Song, and sort by Name see an alphabetcial list of your music.

iTunes 12 includes dedicated icons for music, movies, or TV shows, which make it easier to get to wherever you want to go in your library with a click. You can use the same controls to switch media types whether you’re browsing the iTunes Store or browsing your library.
You can even choose the media types you always want to see. To access more media types, click the More button (three dots) in the upper-left corner and click Edit. Select your favorite media types in the pop-up menu, then click Done.
List view
To view your music by Song, Album, Artist, Composer, or Genre, click the current view under the Search tool in the upper-right corner. A pop-up menu of other views will appear. When you select one of the views in the menu, you'll see additional options for the view you're currently on, like Sort By Title or Rating.
I hope this information helps ....
