Ok like the title, ive searched and searched and couldnt find anything maybe it isnt possible. I want to know is there anyway I can have my ipod on my iphone so that way when i click on "albums", they are sorted in alphabetical order starting with the artist and not the album name?

For instance while clicking my albums id like it to read Aerosmith, Alanis Morrisette etc or whatever....and not some random album that started with A and another random album after

Any ideas?

This is how it works ---

When u hit ALBUM, of course the list of Albums are alphabetic.

So now u select album#1, Under Album#1, the sort order is by Track#. If track# info is absent from the ID3 tag, THEN the sort order if by Artist.

So... my guess at this point is, if u want to sort by Artist always, u will have to blank out the Track field or change Track field to match artist name order.

Is not random.

how bout you just go to artists? It doesn't show you all the albums but that is impossible, like you said.
