Hi guys,

Apologies if this has already been asked, but i've been searching for ages and haven't found the answer.

I'm having an issue with my iPod Classic and the way it sorts songs. I often access my music via Genre. For example, I may wish to listen to music from Dance Genre only. To access this, I would select Music > Genre > Dance > All Artists > All Albums and then select the song. My expectation would be that the songs would then appear in alphabetical order. Unfortunately, this is not the case. They appear in order of the album they belong to. So, if I have a song called "XYZ" and that song is on album "AAA", it will appear before song "AAA" on album "XYZ".

I also have an iPod touch and this is not the same behaviour. The Touch sorts the songs alphabetically, which is my preferred option.

Is there any way to get the Classic to sort songs like this. Obviously I could just delete the album info, but i'd rather not do that.

Thanks!

Damo
