Hi Merrill,

The key is to tell iTunes to sort by album. Are you using Brian Hartgen's scripts? If so, here are the steps, as taken from the scripts manual:

Press the "Library Key" to place focus upon the "iTunes Library".
Press "CONTROL+J" to activate the "View" options Dialog Box.
Press "TAB" until you reach a Check Box entitled "Album". [Make sure this box is checked. Then] go ahead and press "ENTER" to dismiss the Dialog Box.
Press "ITUNES MODIFIER+0" to sort tracks by album, and then "ALT+CONTROL+1" to sort by track order rather than alphabetical.


I think the last instruction should be iTunes Modifier plus 1, but try the instructions from the manual first.

Note that this won't work if columns are so wide that the one for albums doesn't fit on screen. So if the instructions don't work, have a sighted person look at your screen and move columns around if necessary to get albums to show. Then the instructions should work. If you don't have the scripts, have a sighted person sort by album by clicking Album, then on the column where track numbers are listed if the first sort didn't solve the problem. I've tried doing that by clicking with the Mouse, but I've never gotten it to work and have needed sighted help. As long as the Albums column is at least partly showing, though, the scripts have done the job for me. Good luck.

Cheers,
Anna
