Re: Anyone know how to play all songs by an artist on an iPod or iPhone?

Oh, weird.  I didn't try saying in order.  I tried unshuffled, and play albums 
by ...  So I guess the trick is the in order part.  Thanks!

RE: Anyone know how to play all songs by an artist on an iPod or iPhone?

2015-09-25 Thread Alan Lemly
Donna,

I just tried telling Siri to "Play my Pink albums in order." This is the
only artist for which I have more than one album on my iPhone. Siri did
start playing the first track on one of my Pink albums in order and the
Shuffle indicator was not selected. When I tapped the next track button, the
second track on that album began playing. What I can't figure out is how
Siri picked the album to start with since she didn't do it either
alphabetically or by release date.

RE: Anyone know how to play all songs by an artist on an iPod or iPhone?

2015-09-23 Thread Alan Lemly
Donna,

I'm glad it worked for you. I think in my original reply at the beginning of
this thread, I suggested asking Siri to "Play Bruno Mars unshuffled". I'm
not sure if unshuffled is the correct term for keeping Siri from using the
default of playing an artist shuffled but if it's not, I'm sure a more
correct wording exists to do this. Perhaps others with more experience can
chime in on the best wording to get music played without shuffling.

Hi Alan,

Well, it took me a while, but I finally had time to test this out.  You were
right.  Siri is a very easy way to do this.  However, it is different from
using the procedure George described.  Siri just shuffles the songs, whereas
if you do it the other way, one album is played then another then another.
Nice to have both options.

 Hi Alan,
 
 thanks for responding.  I don't have any problems with playlists, the 
 playlist tab at the bottom is very easy to find.  What I would like to do 
 is be able to pick a specific artist, say Erik Clapton, and play all the 
 songs that I have by him in my library.  You used to be able to do this, 
 Music would play one album and then just go on to the next one.  the weird 
 thing is, that once, I actually did see the all Song button, and was able 
 to select it, but I haven't seen that button since that one time.

George,

I think this may have changed with IOS9.  Tonight I tried following your 
suggestions, an wen I tapped Play, all that was played was the selected album.

 Hi all,
 
 so if you have multiple albums by a given artist, how do you get your
 i-device to play all songs from all albums?  I've looked in the Apple
 Support forums, and saw something that said you did it by tapping on the
 artist photo.  I've tried tapping the artist's name, but that did not do

 Does anyone know how to do this?

Hi Alan,

Well, it took me a while, but I finally had time to test this out.  You were 
right.  Siri is a very easy way to do this.  However, it is different from 
using the procedure George described.  Siri just shuffles the songs, whereas if 
you do it the other way, one album is played then another then another.  Nice 
to have both options.
Cheers,
Donna

open the music app on your phone

in the lower right corner of the app the 5th tab across the bottom is my music 
double tap on this tab
now in the upper left corner of the screen below the status line is my account 
button, library button, and playlist button, double tap on library button
now flick with one finger across the screen to you hear category button with 
the selected defalt category name. if it is not artist then double tap on this 
button and double tap on artest.
Now you should have all your music listed by artest name in a list with the 
name of the artest and number of alblums and number of songs
To play all from that artest, flick up with one finger and you will hear play, 
more, and activate, double tap on play and it will start playing all from that 
artist.
If you do not get these choices when you flick up then do the rotor to you hear 
actions and then it will work.

Then highlite a artest
Then flick up with one finger to you hear play and double tap and if you do not 
have choices like play when flicking up then do the rotor to you get to actions 
and then flick up and you will find play in that list of choices and double tap 
on it and all the songs from that artest will start playing.

Hi George,

Mostly we're speaking the same language.  For me, the My Music tab is in the 
lower left, but all other steps work until I get to the More button.  When I 
tap on that, I get a whole bunch of options such as share artist, Start Radio 
station, Make available off-line,  etc, but nothing about playing all songs.  
have you updated to the latest IOS?  I'm just starting to wonder if we're 
running the same software version, especially given that you're finding the My 
Music Tab on the Right, whereas mine is on the left.
Cheers,
Donna.

Donna,

I understand but give Siri a try. The iPhone seems to have multiple ways to
accomplish the same task and you might be surprised at how handy Siri can be
to play music provided it works like you want it to.

Let us know your results and good luck.

Hey Alan,

You know, I very rarely use Siri to play music.  Not sure why, just habit, I
suppose.  I'll give this a try and see what happens.  It's so frustrating
having gotten it to work once.

I'm still using ios 8.3 so my music app has not been affected by the changes
they brought in to support apple music. I'd be curious how Siri would handle
a request to play tracks by artist when both owned and streamed music are
available on the same device.

RE: Anyone know how to play all songs by an artist on an iPod or iPhone?

2015-09-13 Thread Alan Lemly
Donna,

I sync my desired playlists to my iPhone 6 so that my iPhone actually
contains the music I enjoy listening to as opposed to using Apple Music or
another streaming service. The way I would listen to a particular artist on
my iPhone would be to call up Siri and say something like "Play Bruno Mars
shuffled or not shuffled." I'm not sure of the actual words to request the
playing not to be shuffled but give Siri a try and see if she meets your
needs.

Hi all,

so if you have multiple albums by a given artist, how do you get your
i-device to play all songs from all albums?  I've looked in the Apple
Support forums, and saw something that said you did it by tapping on the
artist photo.  I've tried tapping the artist's name, but that did not do it.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Re: Anyone know how to play all songs by an artist on an iPod or iPhone?

2015-09-13 Thread Alan Lemly
Hi Donna, 

So have you tried asking Siri to play Eric clapton to see what happens? I'm 
still using ios 8.3 so my music app has not been affected by the changes they 
brought in to support apple music. I'd be curious how Siri would handle a 
request to play tracks by artist when both owned and streamed music are 
available on the same device.
