Hi: When I tap the "Music" icon on my iPhone 4, I get my library with the iTunes album suggestions in one, long list. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? All I want is my music - Thanks

You should have a number of tabs/buttons along the bottom of the Music app e.g. Artists, Songs, Albums, Audiobooks (that will only show if you have audiobooks in the app), More (you can also change which options appear at the bottom, and in which order, via the More button and then Edit). Those tabs/buttons are just different ways of viewing/playing your music - so if you want to play a particular album, tap on the album on that list to get a list of its tracks, and tap a track to start playing the album ; similarly in the Artist view you can play through all the songs that you have by that artist on your phone.
