When in the bookstore, can you sort books by release date

Often times find an author and ey have multiple books, some might have 10 or 20. I want to read them in order or maybe I just want the latest. It seems they are displayed with no rhyme or reason that I can see. Is there any way to sort them by release date?

I agree that Apple should improve the year field to be an actual date.
I am not 100% happy doing this, but when you have multiple albums from a single artist for the same release year, a temporary solution is to chage the album title by adding an outline type letter before album titles for that year, so that they appear in the correct order:
David Bowie
1977
a. Low
David Bowie
1977
b. "Heroes"
etc
This could help in the short term until Apple changes that field.

  • Can you sort albums by release date, rather than year, in album view?

    I love the new album view in iTunes 11, but the only problem I have with it is sometimes albums are in the wrong order.
    For example, last year Green Day released a trilogy of albums called ¡Uno!, ¡Dos! and ¡Tré! but since they were released in the same year, they're ordered as ¡Dos!, ¡Tré, ¡Uno! when sorted by artist and then year which really doesn't sit right with me.
    In short, the sorting options for albums view are very limited, is there any way to extend them?
    Also I'm aware that I could, as a cheap fix, change the sorting in album to the release date backwards, but I'd rather not do that as it would make it a bit more troublesome for me to navigate my albums on my iPhone.
    Thanks!

    Hi Mary,
    If you want to display the latest items in a category classification you can use filter="latestClassified" otherwise, just filter="latest". Here is the link to the module_literature parameters for more configuration options: Developer reference

  • Can you sort ibookshelf books by collections and list all of the books in each collection?

    can you sort ibookshelf books by collections and list all of the books in each collection?

    The collection changes a little by the criteria you use to view the books, and you can view them by Title, Author, and Category. So, yes, you can.
    The default view is Book view. On the upper right part of the page, you'll see four white blocks - that's the icon for book view. The icon on the right has three white lines; that's where you find Title, Author, and Category view. You can't create folders in any view.

  • Hi, when typing an email the font on the first line is different then the second, can you help fix this

    Hi, when typing an email the font on the first line is different then the second, can you help fix this

    I can offer suggestions, but I can not fix it.
    Press enter three or four times before you start typing and then move the cursor back to the start. What happens is your point of insertion gets outside your predefined font range, it is a know bug and that will help you "stay in the lines" Another option is type Rick, go back to the start and then type your message. Anything which keeps the insertion point from the very end of the email really.

    Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions.

  • Increasingly FCP runs to 104 degrees C when operating. This can damage MAC BOOK PRO RETINA components, shortening their life-span.

    Increasingly FCP runs to 104 degrees C when operating. This can damage MAC BOOK PRO RETINA components, shortening their life-span.
    Can you suggest what I should do apart from shutting down word documents and other software, Parallels, Windows 7 when using FCP?
    I am gravely concerned with this high heat. I have to use a remote keyboard it is so hot, but gravely concerned with with the damage the heat is doing to to MAC BOOK PRO RETINA.
    ironic - given I switched to Mac from PC this year JUST for  FCP editing.
    BTW - I am a film lecturer advising thousands of K-12 teachers and a have a report to deliver to the Education Department shortly.
    Please advise. Many thanks. Schbang

    You didn't mention what sort of work you're doing - if you're just cutting video this shouldn't happen.
    My suggestion would be to optimize all of your media to ProRes .
    Even though PR is a much larger file it's much easier on the CPU. Playing back compressed media is like rendering all day.
    I routinely use an old 2007 MBP with a core 2 duo and FCP7. I can cut and color correct with no problem at all using ProRes LT files. The only time it gets hot is during long renders.
    I have the laptop elevated on a pedestal that allows air to pass underneath . During long renders I  point a small fan at it which often cools it enough to shut the internal fans down.
    All that said, I know the retina is a more compact design and components are much closer to each other.
    So, I'd be interested to hear from another retina owner.
    Good luck.

  • Can I sort books by Author in iBooks?

    Can I sort books by Author in iBooks?

    For sure. That is a life saver for me till I get a Sort by Author option on the Right Most menu. Currently when I need to find a book by its author I click the middle selection which does not sort books by the Author but gives me the option to see all the books by each author in my Library. Thing is I can not organize me Book Rack sorted by the author. I can organize it by the Title. Or I can organize it Manually, now that is a huge job. Not worth the time it will consume.
    Many thanks for your attention.
    Hoping Apple will give us "Sort by Author" option in the right-most button and the Sort option in the View menu; along with the existing Purchases, Title and Manual options.

  • How can you sort an album that was released in 2007 but has 80s music on

    I have v8 of iTunes, almost completed all my tagging how I want it in iTunes for all my music
    I have a query though, I have a 80s, 90s smart playlist.
    I have recently got an album that was released in 2007, so the year in my library is 2007, however all the music on that album is from the 80s.
    So can you tag with 2 years, ie Album release date and song release (original date) or can you sort the album to show its songs from the 80s.
    Someone must have the same issue, especially from compilation albums
    please help
    cheers

    ahh, was hoping it may have had a "overall" year or album year release date.
    Man that means I gotta tag a lot of my music with the correct year now then, as the compilation albums I got all tagged form web with year released
    Whats the best way to get the year of the songs then please? is there an easy way? Ive got a lot of songs to do now
    cheers
