Q: How to list iTunes songs in alphabetical order

Prior to the last Itunes/IOS update I could listen to my Itunes catalog of music in alphabetical order by song name title - regardless of the artist.

With the most recent update, when I go to sort my songs in the Library alphabetically -- they sort by artist name, not song name.

Any tips on how I can return to sorting the songs by song title?

Thanks.

iPhone 6, iOS 10.0.2

Hi Paulwhu,

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!

We understand from your post that you would like to view the songs on your iPhone in alphabetical order. To do this, navigate to Settings > Music > Sort Songs & Albums and select By Title.

After making this change, when viewing Songs in the Music app, they should be listed in alphabetical order.

You can find this and other display & navigations options for the Music app listed in the following User Guide:

Library - iPhone

Cheers!
