Where have the view icons gone! and why cant i scroll my album artwork anymore, instead i have an ugly grid!!

im trying to set up itunes on my new laptop, and all the library view icons have now gone, so easy switching from the ugly grid, to list or scrolling artwork seems to no longer be an option.
have apple stopped this on a down grade? or am i missing a vital clue to where its hiding, had a look on the help page and there seems no mention of it any more.

The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
With iTunes 11.0.3 you can enable artwork in the Songs view from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view.
If you feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • Where has the 'help' icon gone on the IO7 update?

  • Where has the iCloud icon gone in the menu bar

    When iCloud where in the trial stage they had a little cloud icon top right side in the menu bar to drag and drop files to. I recentlywanted to upload docs to iCloud and noticed it had gone. I never log into iCloud from the Internet, after reading the threads, it seems this is the only way to save files to the cloud now, am I wrong?

    Are you sure you aren't confusing iCloud with iWork.com? In any event, there's no menu icon. To upload iWork documents, go to http://icloud.com and go to the iWork page, pick the appropriate of the three programs, and drag the file in the Finder to the web page.

  • Z77a-g45 where does the little speaker go and why does my computer pause on c5

    so my computer boots does evrything plays games etc but when it starts these numbers in the bottom right corner go off then it stops at c5 for a second then goes to bios screen then boots to windows. is this bad?
    also where does the little speaker plug into.

    it will be fine its just a hang not an error or failure! its just struggling for a short time to get the hard drive opperating thats all and is nothing to loose any sleep over!
    Hang = nothing to worry about really
    failure = thats the oposite of a hang its where it never starts and is to actually worry about!
    unless your computer never gets past that code and refused to load because its failed its not a issue to really bother about! like Xmad said you could try a BIO's update to the most recent one and do a firmware update if you have an SSD! its just a detection hang and an update of both could fix it!
    if you are thinking about doing a bios update use this >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
    do not use live update to do the bio's flash as it has a 50/50 chance of bricking the board and the tool above has never had a failure of a flash!

  • Where did the time display go and why is the screen stuck on master track? Thanks.

    My time display disappeared and the screen is stuck on master track. Any ideas? Thanks.

    If the GarageBand application window appears to be messed up, parts missing, or in the wrong place, it might be a problem of corrupted preferences files. Try to repair permissions and to remove the file "Your Home Folder/Library/Preferences/com.apple.garageband.plist" from your user library.
    See HangTime's fix for "oddball problems":
    http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/GBFAQ.html#oddballprobs
    (Let the page FULLY load. The link to your answer is at the top of your screen)
    Is your profile signature "GarageBand '09, Mac OS X (10.5.8)" still current, John? If not, and you are now using Lion or Mt. Lion, the User Library will be hidden.
    Then you can reveal it from the Finder's "Go" menu:
    Finder > Go,   then hold down the options ⌥ key, until the Library appears in the drop-down menu, select it and open the Library folder. Then go to the "Preferences" sub folder and remove com.apple.garageband.plist.

  • Navigating the iTunes store. Where's the browse icon gone?

    The used to be a browse icon, I'm sure. An eye symbol.
    Where's it gone? I find it impossible to navigate the iTunes store unless I know what I want. There used to be a way to navigate by a list tree type thing: by genre, performer, etc... Has that function be lost?

    Apple no longer sells games for any iPods except the touch. Sorry, but unless you already had them downloaded to your iTunes account, you can't get them now.

    Sounds like a Windows installer. Does it say Mac on the disk? When you open the dmg, does it say Office:Mac?

    all of a sudden my itunes wont come up when i hit the desktop icon. un and re installed many times, tried new users, it finally gave me "you need to reinstall sqmapi.dll " im a noob and i have know idea what that is or where i can get it. i cant open any file or library that has anything to do with itunes except safari and quicktime are fine. im about to pull out whats left of my hair.

    Okay, that's got one thing ruled out at least.
    Can you check something for me, big? I'd like to see if iTunes launches with the Bonjour Service disabled.
    In your Start menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
    Expand "Services & Applications".
    Open "Services". (Perhaps maximise the screen to better see what's going on.)
    Right-click the Bonjour Service and select "Properties".
    In the General tab, set the Startup type to "Disabled":
    ... and click OK.
    Restart the PC and try launching iTunes. Does it open this time?

  • Where is the iCloud icon? I have a new ipad and although in settings I have the icon and have set music, mail etc to be stored on the cloud I do not have the icon on my home page or on the safari tool bar

    Where is the iCloud icon ? I have the iCloud settings set to on for music, mail etc but the icon is not on my safari tool bar nor is the icon present on my home screen

    There is no iCloud app or icon on your phone.  iCloud is enabled and configured in your settings, but you access your iCloud data through the apps you are syncing with iCloud.  iCloud contacts are accessed through the Contacts app on your phone, Mail through the Mail app, Reminders through the Reminders app, etc.
    You can also access some of this data on icloud.com from a computer.  You can't, however, access icloud.com from your phone.

  • Where Is the Airplay Icon (for audio) on my iPhone 4?  - And Other Issues

    For the most part I'm pretty pleased with iOSv4.2 for both my iPads and iPhones. Folders, multitasking, all great improvements. But perhaps the most exciting new feature is "Airplay" from my iPad and, I wish, from my iPhone as well. To bad it's gimpy...
    Never mind the fact that Airplay doesn't work with my original AppleTV - I think that's a raw deal, but hey, that's the way Apple rolls us into its version of the future. So ATV2 is already ordered and en-route.
    I'll get to video and photos eventually, but for now I'm mostly concerned about sending music wirelessly from my iGizmos to speaker systems around the house. I have two Airport Express units, and those show up in Airplay on my iPad, so I know the system is working.
    So here are the issues I'm having with Airplay:
    1) I'm posting here because my biggest issue is that I do not see Airplay on my iPhone 4 updated to iOSv4.2. Even when using the iPod app on the iPhone, when I swipe to the controls in multitasking mode, there is no Airplay icon. It seems to me I should be able to send audio - either stored or streaming - from my iPhone to my Airports (as I can with my iPad), but I cannot. BTW, I DID see the Airplay icon briefly yesterday - when I had a bluetooth stereo headset activated, the Airplay icon appeared and gave me the choice of the headset or the iPhone. But I never did see an option to connect with my Airports.
    2) When using Airplay from the iPad, I was only permitted to select ONE Airport device at a time. Huh? With Airplay in iTunes on my desktop, I have the option of sending the signal to as many devices as I want at one time. Is there some reason I cannot do that with my iOSv4.2? Seems to me they should operate in the same manner, why the oversight? Eventually I will need to connect multiple sound systems to one source.
    3) As others have reported in this space, I am experiencing intermittent signal when listening to audio from my v4.2 enable iPad. It gets pretty annoying. I will continue to monitor these threads and see if I can get to the crux of the issue.
    I recall reading that the release v4.2 was delayed somewhat in part because of "WiFi issues," and it would appear to me that those issues were not entirely resolved prior to the actual release. I'm glad they went ahead and released it, because the other features I've alluded to are a big improvement, but now that they've tempted me with these new possibilities, I expect it all to work well.
    Are we taking bets on the release of iOSv4.2.2 ?
    Thanks,
    --PS

    Mini Man, I'm glad to read you found a solution to your issue, but I don't know if your solution is going to be mine as well.
    For starters, I do not have the new Apple TV - at least, not yet. I have ordered one, but it will not be delivered until some time next week (sneering glance at Steve & Co. for abandoning that platform rather than making it AirPlay compatible).
    But that is not really my issue: my issue is that my two Airport Express units do NOT show up in the iPhone, though the DO show up on my iPad. This tells me they have been properly configured (both units have names, and are connected to the house network), so there must still be something missing from the equation.
    And, judging from the response of a few others who have chimed in here, I think it's save to say that the experience is not altogether uncommon.
    I'm surprised nobody has come back with a more direct solution to the common issue. I may have to call AppleCare someday this week...

  • Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a pasword in the view password window and now it not asking me to remember and also it is not remembering the password when I go

    Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After I deleted the password from the view password window.

    The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

  • Something is gone in Indesign menu. I dont know why, but the «textwrap» is gone and «stroke». How can I fix this?

    Something is gone in Indesign menu. I dont know why, but the «textwrap» is gone and «stroke». How can I fix this?

    When you switch active Extension Set or enable/disable extension(s), Extension Manager will create/update PluginConfig.txt. InDesign will read this file at launch to determine which extensions (plug-ins) should be loaded or not. If this file doesn't exist, InDesign will load all extensions. Also complicated dependency relationship exists among extensions. I am not sure how these extensions ran into incorrect state.
    If sometime you have to use Extension Manager, you have to reset the state BEFORE launch it. Otherwise Extension Manager will recreate this file based on incorrect database records and file state.
    1. Delete "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Configuration/DB/ExMan.db".
    2. Delete all files in  "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/EM Store/InDesign CS6"
    3. Delete all files in  "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Mxi Flag/InDesign CS6"
    4. Move all files in "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/InDesign/Version 8.0/nb_NO/Extensions/REMOVED" to the parent folder "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/InDesign/Version 8.0/nb_NO/Extensions".

  • In CC214 PS Why has adobe removed the "print Size Button"  And why have they made the Brush preview window so small you can't see the effects to accurately adjust them?

    In CC214 PS Why has adobe removed the "print Size Button"  And why have they made the Brush preview window so small you can't see the effects to accurately adjust them?
    These two things need to be remedied in their upgrades because It's become such a bother I've had to revert to older versions of PS.

    Yea, and it's a pain to get to.  What was the rational for removing the print size button?   With the magnifying glass tool selected in older versions of Photoshop you would get a button that says "print size" right next to Actual pixels, Fit Screen, Fill Screen. Now I have to go out of my way and dig for it if I want to see the print size.  Of all the buttons you could have taken away, why not fill screen?  I never use that.
    Besides the point I just downloaded the Oct Upgrade for PS and surprise! Nothing has changed and these are two big black eyes on newer versions of Photoshop.   The Brush preview window is  unchanged in CC but in CC2014 it's basically worthless.  If you apply a texture to a brush you can't properly see the scale of the texture, the spacing, scatter, etc...

  • I have purchased an IPAD 2 - everytime I try and update or download a new app i get e.g.  'BBC iplayer available to download when you go in to the itunes store on computer" Why cant I download direct?

    I have an ipod touch and have no similar issues - is this an itunes account setup issue?

    Have you tried logging out of your account via Settings > Store and tapping on your account id on the right-hand side, and the logging back in to see if that makes any difference ?
    You could also try a reset and see if you can then download them after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    A third option is to download one of the updates to your computer's iTunes and connect your iPad to it and sync it across, and then see if you can download the other apps/updates directly on the iPad.
