Hello Listers,
OK, so after playing around with iTunes 12 and finally closing it since it's getting late I reopened it to have another look and I suddenly had my list view with all my 4,000+ songs. So I looked and realized that when you set the button by which you filter how you want to see your music to artists, there is an "All Artists" selection at the very top of the list and if you select that and then tab once into the list view all songs do show up. I then went back into the list of selections which are as follows: Songs Albums Artists Composers Genres I realized that while these now are in a list you have to activate by pressing enter or the space bar on the button and then tab once into the list, these were all the same choices as were in iTunes 11 where they were radio buttons. So I thought why not select Songs since in iTunes 11 you had to check the Songs radio button in order to enable the column browser and bingo, as soon as I did so my column browser was back with Genre, Artist and Album columns and I can select and narrow my music down by any of these just as before. brilliant! So, here again is what to look for: Make sure you press Alt+1 in Windows or check the Music radio button. I always find that the search edit box is a good place to start, just press Control+F to jump to that search field. Once you are in the search field, tab once and you are on a button called "Search Options", this is just like iTunes 11. Tab once more and you are on the Music radio button, make sure it is checked by pressing the spacebar. After the music radio button if you tab you get to "Movies", "TV Shows" and then "More". I am not sure if everybody has Movies and TV Shows or if these might not be there if you don't enable them in Preferences. Anyhow, More is where you find things like Apps, Audio Books, Tones, Podcasts etc. Once you tab past the More radio button, you have 3 additional radio buttons which are specific to what you selected before, e.g. if you selected Music, then the 3 buttons are: My Music - this is your music library with all your ripped CD's and purchased music Playlists - your Playlists iTunes Store - takes you to the iTunes Store Tab once more and you come to a button which is the button where you select from the options I mentioned above and this determines how your music is displayed. Activate the button and tab once into the list of options. If you are like me and you like the column browser, just arrow to "Songs" and press enter. Now if you tab you are in your column browser, first is Genre, then Artist and then Album and tab once more to get into your list view of songs. One thing I should mention is that for those of you where iTunes Radio is available this might show up somewhere but since I am in Canada where it is not yet available I don't know if it is under "More" or if it is another main radio button like Music, Movies, TV Shows etc. Good luck, Sieghard -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
