Titles really close together in itunes 8 list view

hey i was just wondering if there's a way to make the list view look more like it did in itunes 7?
i hate the gridlines everywhere and how close the track titles are to each other now. it looked so separated and nice before.
also why did they make this change? was there some technical reason? because i can't comprehend it being an aesthetic choice...

It looks just the same to me with View>>as List. Or clicking the leftmost button near the search box.
There is another option on the View Menu "Show/hide artwork column" That looks rather like what the middle button used to do between list and coverflow - when you are in list view

Shortcut to close multiple folders in List View

In the Finder, in list view, I have multiple folders open (using the triangle by the Folder name). I'd like to be able to close all the open folders at once. I know that holding Option while clicking the red Close button on a window will close multiple windows and I want to do something similar with the folders.
I'm sure I knew how to do this once but can't remember now.
Thanks,
Steve

Command-click or otherwise select all of them, and then push the left arrow key.

How do I show scroll bar in itunes list view

How do I add the scroll bar to Library and other list views in iTunes?
It is a pain having to use the scroll wheel when I want to quickly scroll to near the bottom of the list.

ITunes List View of Movies on my iPod

I load movies on and off my iPod Touch all the time using iTunes on my Mac. But it's really a pain in the *** because when I'm viewing my iPod's contents in iTumes and I select the Movies tab, all it will display is an alphabetical list of all the movies with big icons. What I want is just a list, preferably in Date Added order so I can spot the newest movies in my iTunes library.
Am I mssing something? Is there a way to display a list of movies that I can turn on and off for syncing to my iPod Touch?
(I'm running the latest Mac OS X and latest iTunes.)
Thanks for any help.

First off, do you have a Fifth Generation iPod? If you don't have a Fifth Generation iPod, then you won't be able to play videos on your iPod. (That's the only model of iPod that can play videos.)
If you do have a Fifth Generation iPod, but your iPod only has a blank screen when you try to play a video, then let's take a look at your TV Out settings.
From the Main Menu on your iPod, go to "Videos > Video Settings > TV Out". Make sure that this is selected to be either "Off", or "Ask".

Problems with list view

I have several cds from an old computer that I put on my new computer and loaded them into itunes. They look fine in grid view and I can get the album art and everything but when I go to list view it doesn't put them by the album instead it might list 20 entries (or howevermany tracks there are) and separate them by tracks so basically there will be 20 album pictures of each album and they are listed by all of track 1s and then track 2s. If I delete out the track number they all list together on the list view but then of course I lost my track number and they just list alphabetically.
Any ideas?

Check the "artist" field for these tracks - it is likely they are different (perhaps there are guest artists, for instance Jurassic 5 featuring Nelly Furtado). If this is the case, highlight all of the tracks from an album, right-click, and choose Get Info. On the Info tab type the artist's name and click OK.
Another possibility is these are compilation albums that contain tracks from multiple artists. If this is the case, highlight the tracks and go to Get Info (as above). Go to the Options tab and set "Part of a compilation" to Yes.

List View Web Part - Default Chrome Setting

In our environment, the "Default" chrome setting does not display the title or the border on our list view pages. We have tried Oslo and Seattle master pages and neither displays this to the end user. We do see the title in Edit mode, but
not once the page is saved. If we switch it to Title Only, it does display.
Is this the correct behavior? If so, is there an easy way to change the chrome setting to "Title Only" for the list view web parts in one particular web application when a view is created?

That is the default behavior. normally, the listview web part is on a page where the title of the library is displayed on the page, which would make it redundant to display it in the web part only. I don't know any way to change this behavior
by default when creating a new view.

Changes to list view in iTunes 8

I've noticed some changes to the list view in iTunes 8, which in my personal opinion, means it doesn't look as good as in previous versions.
For example, in previous versions there was a little gap between albums, there are now all bunched up together, and I feel it just makes the screen look a bit cramped. I'd prefer an option to have it looking like it used to.
There are also changes to the artwork column. The shadow for album artwork has been removed. The font for artist and title has been made bigger, there is also a grey background which I don't remember being there before.
I realise these are only minor points compared to some of the issues some people have been having with iTunes 8, but given how much attention Apple normally pays to having attractive GUIs, I feel these changes are a step back.
Does anyone else feel some of these changes should be reversed, or is just me?

I agree with you that the lack of gaps between albums makes it more difficult to pick each one out in the list, as does the uninterrupted repetition of the alternately coloured row background.
I guess this is a side-effect of making artwork display in list view optional. I too prefer the previous approach.

Podcast list view in iTunes 11

Not sure if I am missing something here, but I regularly search for podcasts on specific subjects. More likely than not it's individual episodes I want, rather than a podcast series. However, in iTunes 11, when you click on an individual episode after searching it takes you to the whole series. You then have to look through that whole series to find the episode that showed up in your search.
This is really really annoying. In iTunes 10, you could look at all the episodes in a list, and click the ones you wanted to download. Now you have to hop in and out of whole podcast series, find the specific episode you want, then back out and onto the next one. When you're downloading 20 or 30 at a time it's a real pain.
Am I missing something? Is there a way to get the old convenient list view back?

I'd like to have this list view back as well.
It was usefull for choosing a podcast based on date and/or length.
I will submit feedback on this and suggest all others who want it back do the same.

Why does iTunes 11.1 have to break Podcast List view?

iTunes 11.1 has ruined podcast List view on my Mac. It was the only view that made efficient use of screen space. Now that is gone, with a clutter of lists of old episodes that I have listened to and deleted, often years ago. I want the ability to NOT SHOW OLD EPISODES. The settings and default options do not work to delete old episodes, which hover in 'the cloud' in my lists.
So instead of a few unheard episodes, I have sometimes hundreds of old episodes for the program. Simply reordering the list so that recent programs appear at the top for each program is not good enough. I don't need to see program titles I have already heard and discarded ('deleted' prior to 11.1).
This is not a cloud, it is FOG!!
I can't believe this stuff.

I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order.

I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order. The "Apply Sort Field" and "Same album does not work, but ti is only these two RCA albums that do this. All other albums remain intact. Need help with this minor problem. Thanks.

UPDATE: This behavior (to an extent) still happens when "Repeat Album" is off. Instead of an infinite loop, it goes through all the tracks on the album (unsuccessfully) and kicks me out to the Album overview screen. Going back to list of Albums and tapping the Album again brings up "No Content: You can download music from the iTunes Store" but that screen immediately kicks me back to list of Albums.
So I am just even more confused now.

Podcasts list view ruined in iTunes 11.1?

Just upgraded and I don't seem to be able to remove podcasts I've already listend to from my list view. I use the list view as I like to manually manage what I download and when. I download stuff to sync with my iPhone. To make matters worse, even though only a few old unwanted podcasts were showing in a few feeds, I clicked the refresh catalog button and now I have pages and pages of defunct rubbish going back at least 5 years that I am no longer able to delete! Even if I re-download an old podcase and delete it, it still stays in the catalog! How could this possibly be what anyone would prefer?
The 'my podcasts' list is no better, as you can't delete old stuff from there either and 'my stations' does not give me the option to download all available episides so I can sync it with my phone,
PLEASE GIVE US BACK manual control of the catalog!
If Im missing something, and I really hope I am, please can someone point me in the right direction (if that direction is a decent, working podcast player that I can sync with my phone, then so be it!)

Good luck on that type of workaround as iTunes is tightly integrated into the operating system... so you would need two backups ahead of time and plenty of time thereafter.

How do I get back album list view in iTunes 11?

I want it to look like this
http://www.apple.com/itunes/inside-itunes/2010/09/new-album-list-view-option-in- itunes-10.html
But I can't seem to find a way now

This is what I want it to look like in EvilGnome's post. Is there a way?
Ignatia: Putting it on Songs tab then clicking on "Album" doesnt work as theres no resulting window that appears with album art and tracks after clicking on the Songs tab....its just a long list of track titles.
Basically i want the songs in text format but seperated by the album art to the left. like in EvilGnome's picture - not just a long list making it hard to figure out. Why Apple would even remove this option god knows....
Don't fix something that ain't broke.
Currently it looks like this using the songs tab in iTunes 11....no album art anymore
I want it to look like the pic below (pic from evilgnome's post and how i was using itunes previously):

Videos list view and TV Shows titles

Two questions about the standard Videos app in iPad 2:
Is there any way to get a text-based list view or is the thumbnails view the only option?
Also, I uploaded some videos to the iPad via iTunes and then set them to the TV Show category (Get Info > Options > Media Kind), but then on the iPad their titles don't appear. If I set them back to Movies then their titles appear. Why the discrepancy, and is there anything I can do about it?

Thanks for your answer.
I was transferring the videos manually to the iPad without adding them to the library first. So I did a sync; set only TV Shows to sync, but it wiped out all my videos, most of which were set to Movie, and all my books too. Thanks, Apple!
So then I added some videos to the library, set them to TV Show, and did a sync, and they got added to the TV Shows category on the pad, but still no title, even if I add it (Show, etc.) manually via iTunes. Looks like there's no way to get a title displayed for the thumbnails in the TV Shows category, although they do appear under thumbnails in the Movies and Music Videos categories. What's up with that?
And why can't I get a list view? Can anyone recommend a video player app that will let me get a list view, preferably with folders?

TS1389 Why not make apple-id available in the iTunes app list view ?

Can't apple add the apple-id field to the list view for apps ? This would really help in case different ID's are used to install apps. I know the ID can be seen with the Get-Info option, but doing that for 200+ apps to find one that won't sync is a pain !!

Moon,
That is a good question. It is not possible with the current iTunes, but you could suggest it to Apple at the iTunes Feedback page.
When you submit, set "Feedback type" to "Enahncement Request," and explain what you would like to see. I think it may be relevant to all content types, not just apps.

Normal list view in iTunes 8

I can see how to switch all the views in iTunes. However when I go to the listing view (one on the left) everything is still grouped with album arts and what not showing in the display window. How can I get to just the normal "list" of songs that I can sort without this? I don't need album arts on the side as it gets annoying scrolling through 15,000 songs that aren't all on albums with art work.
Is this totally gone?

It looks like you are stuck in grid mode (middle). I click on list mode and there are all the songs just like before the update. Don't give up this feature wasn't removed it's just a matter of trying to figure out how to get the list button to work for you.
