Curious how you can sort your songs by alphabetical order without them being grouped by artist? Having this problem on ipad and iPhone
iPad 2, iOS 7.1.2
The songs are sorted alphabetically in the Music App on my iPad. Are you looking in the songs tab in the music app?
Yep, I'm in the songs tab of the music app. All my songs are grouped by artist in the songs tab, makes it difficult to find a certain song when the song title is not in alphabetical order.
Well as far as I can recall, I did nothing special at all when I synced my music to the iPad. I have very few downloaded/purchased songs on the device, but even the very few purchased songs that I have in the Music App are in alphabetical order. The only settings that can be changed on the iPad are in Settings>Music and I don't see anything in there that has any bearing in this. I have Group by Album Artist selected, but that doesn't change the alphabetical order if I toggle it off and on.
Try resetting the devices. The "Songs" views should be in alphabetical order as determined by Sort Name, or Name if Sort Name is blank.

I just had this same issue since I updated to ios10
Settings -> Music -> Sort Library by
It fixed it.
THANK YOU!!!! That is all!!! Again THANK YOU!!!
Settings>music>sort song&albums>by title
In Apple's bewest iOS 10.2 sorting music is as simple as opening the music app, clicking songs and in the top right hand corner you're provided the option to sort either by title or artist. Unlike iOS 10.1 you don't have to go into settings to change this feature, instead you can do it in the app itself.
How do I get my Music library songs in alphabetical order and not sorted by artist?
