Hi again! Well I've found that if all the tracks are tagged properly then it does not matter how many tracks of a album there are! They will all turn up in that album in grid view! So you could have only 6 of a 11 track album but you can still get rid of them! The only problem I've encountered wa

Hi Paul, Odd, but I don't have this problem. First of all, you don't need to select the artist first if you want to directly select the album by title. That's simply a convenience if you want to view a list of albums by the artist. This sounds like a focus issue. I usually route my mouse cur

Hi, Colin's suggestion should work too, if it's a complete album. Cheers, Esther On Nov 6, 2011, at 11:19, Red.Falcon wrote: > Hi Paul! > Just for the purposes of getting rid of that album! > Why don't you change the view to grid and pick the album view! > I've got mine like this and all the a

Hi Paul! Just for the purposes of getting rid of that album! Why don't you change the view to grid and pick the album view! I've got mine like this and all the albums are in order and all I've got to do is open that album and select all and delete! Album gone! hth Colin On 6 Nov 2011, at 20:22, P

Hi Esther, Again this answer is worth saving for later reference so I did that, but I still have questions. 1. I'm trying to find tracks, all belonging to one album from one artist, present in my itunes library, and I want to get rid of them in itunes. Here's what I do, but it fails. 1. Start i

I usually use table view. After searching for the album tracks, you can select all with command+a and move to trash. Kristyn On Nov 6, 2011, at 8:13 AM, Paul Erkens wrote: > Hi Esther, > Thanks for your as always thorough and clear response. I have been playing > around with the music browser

Hi Paul, Can you select and use the Shift+Arrow keys in the songs table if you first click in this table with VO-Shift-Space? First, I find that I can select the album in the column browser and create the playlist directly from there If I click on the selection with VO-Shift-Space and then pres

Hi Esther, To clarify my last message, I forgot to add that once I have found an album using the music browser, itunes will not let me select any tracks. Usually, I can do it using the shift and vertical arrows, but this is not possible after I narrow down the tracks listing inside the itunes mu

Hi Esther, Thanks for your as always thorough and clear response. I have been playing around with the music browser a few days now and it seems to work for me. I even cleaned up stuff I didn't even know I still had in my library, and I was also able to correct a few genres. I still have a quest

Hi Paul, Doug, Aser, and Others, A more useful general way to access your music in iTunes by Artist (or Album, or Genre, or other categories) is to use the Column Browser, which can be toggled on or off between the "Show" and "Hide" positions with Command+B. You can configure this under the "V

In iTunes, move one element left of iTunes search, where you should find something called view mode, interact with that and select grid view. When you then scroll passed the source list, you should eventually encounter buttons that allow you to group by artist, album, genre etc. Select which one

Hi all, On an iphone, you can sort the itunes library by artist. On my mac, I only see tons of songs, and if I want to delete an entire album, or all songs from 1 artist, I need to carefully select each of them, and then delete them from the itunes library. Is there a better way on the mac, to
