Sorting by ARTIST not the same in iPod and iTunes?

In iTunes/Windows, I insert a CD consisting of a compilation by various people as ARTIST='Various artists' and ALBUM ARTIST='whatever-singer'. Sorting by ARTIST shows the CD under the group 'Various artists', with each song corresponding to 'whatever-singer'. The iTunes library creates a folder for 'Various artists' with the CD name and all the songs inside.
Transfering to the iPod and selecting ARTIST, lists instead all the 'whatever-singer' as separate items, rather than the 'Various artists' name used in iTunes.
Any suggestion to make the iPod terminology compatible with iTunes?. Thanks

Mark it as a compilation then. It will show up as one album, at the end of coverflow but NOT under artists, unless you have a "regular" non compilation album by the artist. Unfortunately all of your, for example, Bryan Adams music would not be together - Albums in alphabetical order, compilations at the end. Another way to work around this would be to add the guests name to the individual song titles, such as "We're In Heaven (Feat. whoever)". This involves renaming the tracks, and deleting the "Featuring" name from the artist, but the album will only show up once. This is the most annoying thing about coverflow - an album is not a compilation because it has 2 guests on it - but the ipod thinks it is. My opinion is that if I would sort it with an artists other albums in my CD collection, I should be able to do so in my ipod...without creating 4 covers because of guests on an album. I really hope this is addressed in the future!

  • "Material is not the same for confirmation and delivery"

    Hello
    If this is not the right forum, my apologies. Direct me to the correct one if it is not ....
    Have been doing automated test development (HP's QTP) against SAP systems for over a year. I am not an application expert - very much a newbie when it comes to application knowledge but trying to gain some. I have "googled" the phase "Material is not the same for confirmation and delivery" and have not been able to find any references. What does this mean?
    I see this message for an iDoc using WE02. Have looked and looked but don't really know what I'm looking for.
    Clues?
    Thanks,
    DW

    DW,
    I have never seen that exact message, but I have seen similar ones.  Generically, the message probably means that you are attempting to perform a transaction against a document (perhaps a Purchase order?) and the Material number (Part Number) contained in the transaction is not the same as the Material number in the originating document in SAP.
    An example might be you have previously created a confirmation against a Purchase order, which now exists in SAP.  This Confirmation is for a specific Purchase order, item, and material.  Now, when you attempt to create an inbound delivery for the Confirmation, the material number contained in the new IDOC is different from the material number that was contained in the original Confirmation.
    I don't know what IDOC Message type you are having the problem with, but generically you can do some troubleshooting. Find the SAP Material number in the IDOC (MATNR probably).  Find the appropriate reference document number in the IDOC (confirmation number?  Purchase order number? or...?), and then manually review the document in SAP to ensure that the Material numbers are the same.
    If you are totally lost, you should really consult with an SAP App expert.  I am guessing that this is part of the Materials Management module, so you would be asking for an MM expert.
    Or, you can send more details, and we can try to help.
    What is the IDOC message type?
    What is the Message number of the error message?  Functionally, what is this IDOC trying to do, from a business perspective?

  • Can I rescue my iTunes Library (not the MP3s) from iPod for iTunes on Windows?

    Hi guys
    So here's the thing: My Macbook has died on me (don't ask) and I've switched back to Windows. Now, I have an iPod classic with all my files on it, and with some magic on a friend's mac (using an app called Houdini), I was able to extract all my MP3s for use on iTunes on my Win8 PC.
    What's gone, of course, are all the stuff from iTunes (play counts. ratings. playlists) - and I find I miss those things.
    Is there a way to extract the iTunes library using just my iPod - and transfer it to PC? And if yes: Where do I find it and where does it have to go on my PC?
    Thank you.

  • Appointment times not the same between iPhone and iCal...

    When I make an appointment in my calender using my iPhone it displays the time one hour earlier in iCal on my iMac. When you edit the appointment in iCal it displays the correct time, but in the graphical view it is one hour earlier.
    My time zone is set to America/Indianapolis. I've deleted the calenders and re-entered the data, but the result comes out the same. The iPhone seems to maintain the correct appointment time. Any help with this issue would be appreciated.

  • Please help.. me and my hubby both have the iphone 4 and use the same email address and itunes account. I got mine yesterday and activated it to find all my husbands contacts on my phone. I deleted them and he lost all his contacts. How can we stop this !

    Hy please help...
    My husband purchased  an iphone at xmas and evrything was fine until i purchased 1 yesterday . We both use the same email address which is linked to our itunes account (ithink) I registered mine yesterday and all my husbands contacts came on to my phone, so i deleted them and he lost them all on his phone :-( now if he adds or deletes anything i get it or the other way round please please help

    If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted.  The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync.  You need to use different IDs.  You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps.  But use different icloud IDs.

  • How can i synchronize different contacts and different calendars with different iOS devices using the same Apple ID and iTune ID?

    I have the following situation. 1 Apple ID. 1 iTune account. I have 2 ipads and 2 iPhones
    1- I would like to have a set of 1 ipad and 1 iphone (mine) sharing the same contacts and calendar entries (synching from outlook)
    2- I would like to have another set of 1 ipad and 1 iphone (my wife's) sharing contacts and calendar entries but obviously these would be a different set of contacts and calendar entries than mine
    How can I set up my four devices to do this?
    Thanks for your help
    Cheers

    Have your wife log in to her user account on the laptop. Launch iTunes, then connect her phone to the computer with the USB cable. Sync. That should put back all apps and media. Since you already upgraded her to iOS 5 she'll have to manually enter all her settings and preferences, and organize her home screens.

  • HT2731 The appleID on my phone is not the same as on my itunes account. How can I get the same on both my iphone and itunes?

    How can I match my apple ID for itunes and my apple ID on my cellphone?

    Do you have multiple accounts or have you updated your account on your computer's iTunes and the update hasn't copied over to your iPhone ? If you've updated your account then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your phone and log out of it and then log back in with the updated version.
    If you have multiple accounts then you can log out of your account on your phone as above, or your computer's iTunes via the Store > Sign Out menu option, and you can then log in with the other account. But all content is tied to the account that downloaded it.

  • Key board viewer for the font tamil 99 is not the same for iPad and macbook pro, why?

    I have ipad 2 and macbook pro purchased in the year 2014.  The character viewer for both iPad and mac book is different causing difficulties while typing.  Is this issue can be resolved?

    If you created your book with iBooks Author, such books can only be read on an iPad or on a Mac running Mavericks or later.
    If you want your book to be available on the iPhone, you have to create it in .epub format.  The Apple app for that is Pages.

  • How do I transfer my purchased apps from my old ipad to my new ipad?  All with the same Apple ID and Itunes account.

    I just purchased a new Ipad with 4G yesterday and I am trying to transfer my purchased apps from my old Ipad to the new one.  We have one Apple ID and one Itunes account that we are using. 

    Connect the old iPad to your computer, launch iTunes and then sync the iPad. A backup will be created when you sync the iPad and your purchased apps should transfer into your iTunes library on the computer. Just to be safe - manually transfer the purchases as well.
    After the sync completes - right click on the iPad name on the left side under "Devices" and select - Transfer Purchases. Let the process complete - and just because I am OCD - I would sync one last time. Eject the iPad and quit iTunes.
    Then connect your new iPad to the computer and launch iTunes again. You will be given the opportunity to set up as new or to restore from the backup of the old iPad. Choose backup from the iPad - let the process complete - and then follow that with a sync with iTunes to put all of the content that was on the old iPad onto the new one.

  • HT1267 The Apple ID in my new IPhone is not the same as my ID . how can i sort this

    Hi, The Users ID on My New IPhone Is not the same as my apple ID
    How can I sort this ...

    Got it!!!!  A re-install is NOT the answer.  You need to turn on individual notifications under Settings > Facebook > Push Notifications, BUT (and this is a big and confusing BUT) you also need to turn on global push settings under Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendards > Fetch New Data (and change the Push slider to 'on').  This doesn't sound like it makes sense, but I guess that the push slider under 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' is actually for ALL push notifications on iPhone, and not just Mail, Contacts and Calendar apps!
