I can't figure out how to see data such as number of plays and last played when searching my library of digitized CD music. With a large library, it is not always possible to remember your favorite tune from an artist and number of plays or last played gives me the hint that need. Apple used to show this data but the latest version seems to have lost it. Any help?
Spudsy - In Songs view, you can use View Options to add the columns you want. Just add Plays, Last Played, etc as you wish.
Spudsy,
Also, make sure to use View > Show Filter Field. When the field comes up use it to do your search. Do not use that useless search bar at the upper left.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. Dude at the Genius Bar didn't know that one. This solves the main issue I had with the update because I thought that this was the same thing as the useless search bar. My sons are trying to get me to switch to Google Music but I have no idea how you can control a 40K library without the plays, last played, and date added info so I kept saying "no thanks" since GM doesn't offer that. Love my old Itunes data and would be up a creek without it. Thanks so much!
