When I look at Songs in iTunes I get a nice list like this.
When I switch to Albums I get a page full of icons which I find confusing to navigate.
How can I get a simple list in Albums that's like the list I get for songs?
Cheers, John
Once you are in Songs view, click the column heading for Album to get everything sorted together by Album.
If you click it a few more times, you will see additional options, including "Album by Artist." Keep clicking and pick the sort you like best.
I think I get what you are saying.
Selecting Albums gives you the opportunity to sort by the following criteria
Title
Artist
Genre
Year
Rating
You select one of the above for your first criteria and then select one of the remaining four for your second criteria so that both your
Sort By
Then
windows are filled in. I get that but at the end of the process I am still left with dozens of icons when what I really want is a concise listing as I have illustrated in my first diagram. I simply want the words - no icons. I thought that perhaps there would be something in the View menu that could achieve this but if there is I don't know where it's hiding. So thanks for the reply but it doesn't solve my issue.

Ttibsen,
In iTunes, Albums view gives you those icons. If you want the list (columnar) view, choose Songs view. However, Songs view does not offer the secondary sort.
Too bad you can't get a list view in Albums is all I can say. Why you can see a list view in Songs but not in Albums is beyond me - both should be available.
Thanks for your help with this.
