Hi Graham, I'll try to answer your questions about iTunes 11 even though I, personally, have not upgraded to this version. The following should work to get the new iTunes 11 into something that approximates the "Classic" view of iTunes that you are used to from earlier versions. I refer you to the TUAW article on "iTunes 11 for old fogies: goin' back to the way it was" by Erica Sadun: http://aol.it/ShCsm3
1. Press Command-Option-S to restore the Sidebar in iTunes 2. Select the "Songs" radio button 3. Press Command-slash to restore the status bar Once you are in the traditional list view after selecting "Songs", you can sort by any column you like. Your playlists should be available in the sidebar that you've restored. Your playlist information about total playing time and number of items, should appear in the status bar, as before. If you use the "Column Browser", and have enabled viewing of "Artists", "Albums", and "Composers" under the "Column Browser" submenu of your "View" menu option (on the iTunes menu bar), you can access them as before. Write back if you still have problems. HTH.
