Adding a folder splits tracks into new folder and artist folder of the same

Ello all,
I have an artist already in i-tunes, there are two tracks on one album. The same artist has sent me two more tunes which make up another album. When I go FILE>add folder to library and select that folder/album it puts the album folder into the artist folder with one track and then creates the artist folder again and puts the other track in there with the same album name.
Any ideas??
This is really really bugging me.
Cheers
Phil

Is all of the music in one folder (at some point, even a top level folder)?
If yes, go to that folder, hit Search (F3), and type in *.mp3. Only mp3 files contained in that folder (and subfolders) will show up, and drag those into iTunes.

  • I used my apple ID for my daughters new iPod and now we have the same number! Please help

    I just started up my daughters new iPod and use my apple id and now we have the same number! How do I change this on my daughters iPod? I want her to be able to use my apple ID but I'd like her to have her own number... Is this possible?

    Create a new ID for her:
    On the iPod go to
    - Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
    - Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
    - Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
    Continue to use the common ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores.

  • How do i move photos and catalog to a new drive and have lightroom make the same move

    I am trying to move all my photos to a new drive with different drive letter.  I know I can do a backup and restore inside PSE13 to perform that.  However, I also have Lightroom 5 on the current setup.  How would I now use the new location for the photos in lightroom if they are already moved by PSE?
    Hope this makes sense!

    I don't recommend the Time Machine or Migation Assistent approach. The first tneds to be very slow and the second often carries baggage that is probably best not transferred to a new computer.
    Lightroom doesn't use activation, therefore, can be installed on your new Mac without having first removed it fom the old. Your images and catalogs can be copied across to the new Mac using an a portable disk drive as the transfer medium. Typically, on Mac computers, the catalog and image files are stored in the Pictures folder. If this is where you have them then then copy them to the same location on the new Mac. Once copied you can open the catalog folder then double click on the .lrcat file to launch Lightroom.

  • Running new GL and traditional GL at the same time

    Hello, I am new to the forum.  I have a quick question about the new GL.  Can you run the new GL in a specific country while having the other countries of the company still running under the traditional GL? Or can you only run the new GL or the traditional GL?
    Thank you

    Hi
    Refer to the following OSS Note for all migration queries
    1070629 - FAQs: New General Ledger Migration
    Read question 23 for answer to your query.
    23. You want to configure a new company code with the new general ledger. The existing company codes use the classic general ledger. Can company codes use different general ledgers (classic and new) in the same client?
    The implementation of a new company code and the transition from the classic general ledger to the new general ledger are two different projects which you must schedule at different times.
    You perform the migration from the classic general ledger to the new general ledger at client level and it affects all company codes in this client.
    Because the new general ledger is activated at client level, the new general ledger would be active for all company codes, not only for the new company code. This would mean that the new general ledger is active in the old company codes, but there was no migration from the classic general ledger to the new general ledger. This is not possible.
    Therefore, it is not possible to start with a new company code in the new general ledger while the classic general ledger is still active in other company codes in the same client.
    First implement the new company code. Then set up the project for the transition from the classic general ledger to the new general ledger.
    Alternatively: First set up the project for the transition from the classic general ledger to the new general ledger and migrate the data to the new general ledger, then implement the new company code.

  • My treo 650 wont charge the charger is always shaky i just got a new one and it's giving the same problem

    Post relates to: Treo 650 (Cingular)

    I have had an issue that I have been dealing with for about a year that sounds just like this.  I found they were due to poor electrical connections.  Check and clean all the electrical connection contacts for the battery to the phone, and the phone to the cord.  Because I had plugged and unplugged the phone so much, the hole for the power cord was very dirty and had become quite worn and was bigger than it should have been.  I first did like you and got a new cord, this helped but I still had issues. So because I was cheap and did not want to send the phone out for repair to replace the worn parts, or get a new phone, I spent some time and rigged it up nicely.  After cleaning the contacts on the phone, I started working on the cord to tighten it up.  So with the charger unplugged from the wall and the phone, I very carefully pried up on the contacts that plug into the phone so they would stick out a little more.  This helped, but not good enough.  I then tried to tighten up the worn hole.  At first, I used a small piece of trimmed electric tape that made the plug thicker, this worked, but the tape kept coming off.  When I finely got tired of that,  I cleaned the tape off of it and started building up several thin layers of superglue making sure not to get it on the contacts.  After I was sure the glue was fully dry!  I plugged the cord in the worn out hole and it fit, and worked like new. That was almost a year ago.  I have had to re-apply glue once after it had wore down some.  I also found that a desk charger where the phone stands up works pretty good.  It still has and issue from time to time.  I just have to wiggle it a bit and I can get it to work. 
    Best of luck with your issue.

  • Got a new computer, did the home sharing, downloaded all tunes into new laptop but not all of the songs can be played now

    as said above..New laptop, downloaded Itunes.  Home shared, downloaded all tunes into new Itunes butalthough they are there some are greyed out and will not play.  How do i fix this ?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • How do I get all the same artist together in the same folder??

    I have alot of artist that only have 3 or 4 songs to each album.. and there will be 4 different copies of the same album cover. Put together it would have all the songs to that album but I'm tired of having to search through each one to find the song I'd like to listen to. PLEASE HELP
    Message was edited by: [email protected]

    See my recent post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums. This is fundamentally about the logical organisation within iTunes, but if you happen to be letting iTunes "Keep iTunes Music folder organised" then it should also sort out the physical file structure as you amend your tags.

  • Images (and image folders) in the same folder as Lightroom Catalog?

    I'm just switching over from Aperture 3 to Lightroom 4.  I'm wondering if its ok (or smart) to keep the images (and image subfolders) in the same folder that the Lightroom.lrcat and Previews files are kept in.  I'm trying to better organize my Pictures folder so that there are a whole bunch of separate sub-folders.  Thoughts?

    In Lightroom, there is no specific location where the photos should go. You can put them wherever you want, based upon your storage needs and hard drive setup.
    So, with regards to your specific question, yes you can put the photos in the same folder as where the .lrcat is located, I can't see any harm, but I also don't think you need to do the work to make that happen. You can pretty much leave your photos where they are (which is easier and less time consuming) than moving them to the .lrcat folder, and easier and less time consuming than moving them at all.
    In fact, I strongly suggest you change your thought processes from "Where do I put my photos" to "How can I organize my photos". Now that you are a Lightroom user, you organize your photos from within Lightroom, not by moving them here to there, but by adding keywords and other metadata. Organizing, now that you are LR user, is not folders ... it is metadata. Searching, now that you are a LR user, is not done in your operating system and in folders, it is done in LR by searching for keywords and other metadata.

    You can't do it in one step. Add to iTunes first, Once the tracks are in iTunes you may convert to a different format.
