View play count in 'artists' view???

On the new iTunes 11, under 'Artists' viewing pane, it has the rating, play time etc , but is it possible to view the play count in there as well???? Thanks

They've "cleaned up" the display, but made it much harder to view complete albums with art and all other fields of interest. I quite like the new Artists and Albums views for playback and some tasks, but I really miss the Album List view of iTunes 10. The Songs view doesn't really cut it for me.

Is it possible to view information such as play count on Artist view in itunes 11?

is it possible to view information such as play count on Artist view in itunes 11?

There is no column view for the artist tab in iTunes 11. The songs are chunked up by album, no option for list view, let alone column chooser. Also, everything under view > column browser is grayed out.

Is it possible to show play counts in Artists or Album view in iTunes 11?

There are some beautiful new changes to iTunes 11, but also some things I really like have been taken away. One of them is being able to see my playcouts as I browse. Not just in the playlist or songs list view.
Does anyone know if there is any way to show play counts in Artists or Album view in iTunes 11?

typo... sorry
I have 3 product codes that I want to report on - Mold, Repair, and Production. For Mold and Repair, I want to print out only the top 1 job for each order. For Production, I want to print all jobs. I have GH1 to group by ProdCode. GH2 groups by Orders. Detail A section has a formula to suppress if ProdCode = Production. Detail B suppresses if ProdCode is not Production. I can get the suppresion to work but I don't know how to get the Top 1 to show when Detail A is shown.
Obviously I'm new at Crystal Reports - about 3 weeks.
Thanks for your help...

Play count in album view itunes 11?

I was wondering if there was a way to show your play count in album or artist view? Such as if you click to expand your album, where it says the time of the song is there a way to get it to list the play count too?
I use play count a lot and this would be very helpful.
Thanks!

Sort of works. Albums in a subfolder do not sort correctly with the rest - they show up at the end of the rest, but at least it is better than it was. The problem is that by default the menu bar does not show up and it took a while to figure our how to turn it on.
I think this version may have some advantages once a person gets used to it, but until then.........

Can I view track play counts in album view?

The album view is beautiful in the new iTunes. But it doesn't seem to show play counts for the tracks. Who else wants this feature? Or if it exists, how can I get to it?

Icons can only be viewed on the arrange page.
I'm not sure what space in the mixer you're referring to though. There's the track name, and a little bit of space before the bottom of the fader, but hardly enough to be usable, imo. Or were you talking about somewhere else?

Trouble viewing compilations under 'artists view'

I'm using itunes 11 and having trouble viewing ALL of my compilations when I'm viewing itunes in the artists view. It will show 14 of the 61 albums I have designated as being part of a compilation. If I switch to the songs view and use the column browser and select compilations under artists, all 61 show up correctly. I can't figure out what gives. I've made sure that the compilation box is checked off, tried having no album artist listed, having the album artist listed correctly, and having it listed as various artists. Nothing seems to make a difference. Help!

Here's what I do. You may find it helpful.
In general I don't use the "compliation" check box unless the album is truly a compilation of multiple artists. For albums I enter the actual artist's name in the Artist field for each track. Then in Album Artist I put "Various Artists" (without the quotes). I do not enter anything into the Sort Artist or Sort Album Artist fields. In Artist view iTunes then shows these albums under Various Artists.
For albums that are no compiliations of artists, but might have guest artists on one or more tracks I enter the main artist in the Artist field followed by "(with other artist name here)" (without the qoutes). In Album Artist I will put the actual artist's name. I do not select the "compilation" check box in the album's Get Info > Options panel.
See if that helps you.

IPod Touch messes up the play count

I was wondering if im the only one with this problem. Every time when i connect the ipod touch to my PC (currently still PC but getting a Mac on sunday), and than disconnecting it again, using it a while and connecting it again, the play count of some songs are completely wrong. For instance i listened to a song 4 times and suddenly the playcount shows like 253 or something. i dont sync the ipod touch with my pc library because i dont want to. is that the problem?
oh and another quick question (not topic related), is it possible to copy the information files which are used for my ipod touch to keep track of such things as play count, title, artist, album etc, onto the iTunes library? because some of my songs dont have the correct info and i sorted everything on my ipods library which i wanna transfer to the computer (not the music files itself. only info files). is that possible?
cheers and thanks

i am having the exact same problem.
my ipod touch puts play counts up to over 1000 after listening a couple of times..
make sure music is just stopped, not just paused on a playlist, and you dont have it on repeat mode.
i have had to reset all of my play counts of every song (right click in itunes > reset play count)
i think i may take it back if this keeps happening.

Play count view in iTunes 11.0.1

Is it true that Play Count option only functions in the 'Songs' window now? If so, it's disappointing because I use it a lot and would like to use it in the other view windows such as 'Album' or 'Artist' as well.

It still funtions in the other views, you just can't see it.
And I agree, it's a pain only having it in list view.

How do I show plays in Artist View in iTunes 11?

I'm looking for a way to show plays in Artist View in iTunes 11. A dialog box pops up when going to View > View Options, but nothing about changing what information can be diplayed.
Anyone know anything about this?
Thanks!

I do not believe you can. If you want to see plays you need to use The songs View. If you turn on the column browser you can select by Album and in the grid below you should see count. If not then View > View Options and select Plays from the Stats section.

IPad music app: album count incorrect/too large in artist view

Hello,
My problem isn't critical, but it is really annoying. My third generation iPad is showing incorrect album counts for artists under artist view in the Apple music app.
For example, I have just one Coldplay album (Viva La Vida) uploaded to my iPad, but the music app reads the following under the album/artwork in artist view: "10 songs, 15 albums".
I have turned the iPad on and off. I have done a hard reset (by holding home and power button down until iPad shuts off and then tirns on again). I have restored the iPad from a back up through iTunes. I have restored it to factory settings through iTunes and set it up as a new iPad. I have erased the iPad using the iPad "settings/general/reset/erase all contents and settings" option. I have synced the iPad with iTunes and utilized the music tab to replace the music on the iPad. I have uploaded the albums through the iTunes store. I have synced them from my computer.
NONE of these options have worked. They all result in incorrect album counts.
This seems to be a problem which surfaced after I upgraded to iOS6, but I am not sure if that is what caused the issue.
Thanks in advance for any help.

This is some sort of issue with iOS6. There are several threads (and theories) as to why this is happening. But the bottom line is, Apple needs to correct the problem.
One person indicated that the actual number of albums (by a particular artist) in his iTunes Library was the number of albums indicated on the iPad, regardless of the number of albums he chose to sync. In other words, if I have 10 albums by artist "ABC" in my iTunes Library, but chose to sync only 5 of them, the iPad would still indicate 10 albums by "ABC" (because it's looking to the iTunes Library for the album count instead of the number of actual albums that were synched to the iPad). While that theory makes sense, I found it to be somewhat untrue, at least in my case.
What I discovered is, if you rename or make a change to any of the metadata associated with a track from a particular album, then that album is duplicated when you sync, displaying the original album tracks (sans the one or two you changed) under the album name and a second version is created (using the exact same album name) but displaying only the track or tracks you modified. This in turn, increases your album count by one. So instead of showing the entry as just one album, the count now reads two for the same title. To make things even more confusing, if you go back and modify both versions of the album, successully combining the two back into one, so to speak (this can be done by renaming the artist to some other name, synching, then renaming it back to the correct artist), the album will then display correctly (just one "vesrion" showing on the iPad), but the album count remains unchanged (still indicating two). Basically, the count isn't reset, but remains incorrect.
Hopefully, I didn't confuse everyone. But it's difficult to explain. From everything I've read, it appears to be a combination of things; Album count and display, as well as creating additional album "instances" if any tracks are modified.
In any event, I hope they fix it soon. Because if you have a large music library like mine, it takes no time to really screw things up!

Why my tracks are not shown in Album view and Artist view, only Album Artworks are shown???

Dear,
I have not have this problem in the previous version of iTune. As soon as i upgraded it to iTunes 11, it happens.
The problem in here is all my songs, tracks are still here, i can see all of them in "songs view". However, when i change the view to Album View, and click into the Album artwork, there is no track there. When i double click into the Album Artwork, the first song of the album will be played normally.
Same story to the Artist View. Only the Album Artworks are shown and the rest is completely blank.
I have absolutely no idea what is going on here and obviously i am not satisfy with this new version.
Is there any way for me to fix this problem? Please help!
Otherwise i will need to use other software for music playing.
Regard,

ITunes 12: use 'Artist' name in "Artists view" rather than 'Album Artist'?

I.e. if I have an album with artist name X and album artist name Y it seems to sort by Y (the album artist name) in "Artists" view (i.e. the one with the pictures on the left)…is there a way to make it use the artist name (X) instead?
Say artist is "Johann Sebastian Bach", and album artist is "Sviatoslav Richter" (i.e. performer), I would rather it came in under "Johann Sebastian Bach" in the artists view, rather than "Sviatoslav Richter".
…the obvious solution is to switch X with Y, while laborious it does work, however, the problem is then when you have an album were a performer plays a bunch of different composers, this messes things up (breaks up the album in "Albums" and just makes a mess in general)…
In "Songs" view you can just switch between "Use Album Artists" and normal Artists…but in "Artists" view there appears to be no such setting and it seems Album Artist overrides Artist...

Why can't I select just one album under artist view and listen to it from beginning to end anymore? Why would you change that?

Why can't I go under artist view in music app, select 1 of multiple albums by a specific artist and play the whole album from beginning to end? Why would you have it automatically shuffle between songs from several albums by the same artist automatically? How do we change this back to previous function because this is sucking big time for a music lover.

I agree this is a really dumb change and I really hope Apple changes it back to the way it was.
In iOS 6 and earlier when you were in the Music player and selected ARTIST it would show a list sorted by artist. When you selected the artist you wanted, it would show a list of their albums. Then you could select the album and see the list of songs. In iOS 7 after you select Artist, it displays the album and every track, so you have to scroll down through not only the album but every track on that album. That was a really stupid change on Apple's part. Makes no sense.
Here is the list of albums under iOS 6.x...
and here is what is looks like under iOS 7.0
In iOS 7.0 you have to scroll down through all the songs to see the other albums. That can be a really pain if you have a large music collection.
Please Apple change it back to the way it was!! This didn't need to change!

Artists view ipad - no covers

In the artists view in the music app of my ipad, not a single cover shows up. In the albums view, every album is listed with his cover. What can I do? I'm using iTunes Match and every track has a cover in iTunes on my Mac

I get the same on iPad and iPhone. If I go back out of the album view to view all playlists (or artists or anything) and then go back to Now Playing, then the artwork shows up. It then shows up each time afterward. I really don't know what it is, but it seems like the album artwork may not download with the song and it has to download the first time you play it. That seems like a strange way to do it though.

Look to see where they are stored in iTunes. Most are downloaded and stored in iTunes U under library. Those should be shown in iTunes U which is a part of the iPod app on the iPad. I have had a couple that had bad data in the metadata and were classified as Movies and placed in Movies. I selected those and right clicked (control click if no mouse with right click) on those, selected Get Info, selected Options, and changed Media Kind to itunes U. They were moved to the iTunes U section by iTunes.
