how do i search in iTunes store

again, i'm afraid that doesn't help me.

(a) if i had done a search and it had come up with that result i wouldn't have posted on here in the first place. It didn't. i did.

and (b) search results come up in list view. here's mine.and while it says Songs at the top, these are clearly not songs, most of the results are Artists called Elysian Fields, so I click on Name, in the hope that it will show me Songs with the Name "Elysian Fields"... and get 100 results (like i said previously), but the list only goes up to B, for Burning Elysian Fields, so I ask again, not how do i find Elysian Fields by Barbara Thompson, but how is this search function supposed to work..?

i'm sorry but if someone says "how do i drive to London", then "get a bus" is not a helpful answer.

And neither is "are you sure its London you want to go to?".

I thought Barbara Thompson did a song called Elysian Fields. I know the song exists because i have an alias to it, but somehow i lost the file ages ago. So i searched Barbara Thompson's back catalogue and it is not there. So i was mistaken about the artist. But the song exists.

And the first 100 results on my iTunes search get me as far as B, for 'Burning the Elysian Fields', so I can't get to C, or D or the crucial one E !!! so i can't actually find a song called Elysian Fields. which does exist. And its an instrumental, so nothing to do with lyrics, and since one of the biggest music catalogues on the web is iTunes, I'd thought this would be the best place to start.

It would be great if someone could actually suggest how the search function is supposed to work.

Thanks.

what I’d like though is to find out how this daft search function in iTunes is supposed to work!

It’s finding what I’m looking for. It comes up with hundreds of results.

but I can only see the ones beginning with ‘A’.

what kind of search function is that?
