    "The" is always ignored when organizing songs on the iPod


    Hold the "Menu" button for about two seconds.. job done..

    You've lost me a bit there, buddy -- what do you mean?

    If i click artis "Daniel Powter" It just says "ALL" I don't want to click "ALL" I just want it to go to stright to music without clicking "all". Look at the picture for this one.

    Are you using firmware v1.1 (Updater 2006-01-12) by any chance? Because that firmware will not allow you to alter the backlight manually - it's one of the many bugs that this firmare version has. I suggest you upgrade to version 1.1.1 or downgrade to version 1.0 if you are running v1.1.

    As for your secong query, unnfortunately you cannot change this, as this is just the way the iPod organizes your music.

    The only thing you could do is create a smart playlist for each artist. Then all of their songs would appear as you select them..

    hi

    well, this is the good thing about organising your music on iTunes!!
    if the band name starts with a "The" then the "The" wouldn't be counted, but the word AFTER the "The" so, The Click 5 would be alph. as "C" and The Darkness would be alph. as D.

    There!

    Make sure you are not running the updater as well as iTunes when trying to disconnect your iPod..

    Why would you want to do this?

    Yes, it does. If you update the iPod with the download at the link in my last post, then it will give you v1.1.1 firmware on your iPod.

    why would i not want to? My ipod is already 1.1.1
    Yeah, i already know that, I meant will it automaticly update if new firmware comes out. LIke v1.2. If it doesn't automaticly update, there is no point of having this program after i use it.

    Oh, sorry about the misunderstanding. no it won't automatically update for you, you have to check the apple website to see if a new one comes out. So, you can uninstall the iPod installer if you alreay have it installed. ;-)

    rihgt682, patience is a virtue, my friend ;-)

    in iTunes, go [bold]File[/bold] ==> [bold]New Smart Playlist[/bold].

    (Have a look at the following example)

    [​IMG]

    All you have to do is repeat the process for each artist, so instead of "Kelly Clarkson", you may wish to do one for "The Black Eyed Peas", and so on & so forth.
