Album tracks from 1 album are split up in the Library list

When I download a CD of a Musical, the album will be displayed in 5 or 6 spots in the Library with only a few of the tracks in each. How do I get all of the tracks (in the correct order) listed under just one album? Thanx, chicajill

I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something, Meg. I generally use that "center" view, and when my library additions have appeared scattered like that, marking as a compliation has worked for me to bring them all together under one album listing. If the OP shares your bias against compilations, then your way will suit them better. As you said, there are multiple ways of doing things, so I guess we've given chicajill a few options to choose from.

HT1725 Purchased 3 tracks from album, but only one track has downloaded properly

Purchased 3 tracks from album, but only one track has completely downloaded, but system says that all 3 downloaded, how can I complete tracks?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

Restore from time machine does not list all my backups. I know they exist but there dates are not present on the restore list. Any help appreciated.

Restore from time machine does not list all my backups. I know they exist but their dates are not present on the restore list. Any help appreciated. If I must use one of these older dates to restore, how do I then get the more current data off time machine?

Ok, so am i correct in saying that the steps to fix are as follows.
That's one option, but not what I meant by restoring in the time-travel view. The latter is what you get when you enter Time Machine.
is the fresh install not going to be able to "see" the time machine backups that I have at the moment.
It should, but sometimes people report that it fails. I'm not sure why that happens.

Several artists are not showing in the artist list on the Ipod.

Ok. As the title implies on my Ipod there are several artists that are not showing in the artist list. However, in Itunes an artist is clearly defined. I even changed the artist name and still had no outcome. The album is there....but I have to sort through the artist list in order to listen to the music. Can someone help me figure this one out?

The "missing" artists probably have their albums tagged as "Part of a Compilation" and you have the Compilation setting turned ON on your iPod. Either turn Compilations off (go to +Settings/Main Menu+ and +Settings/Music Menu+ and disable Compilation on both menus), or edit the tags to remove the Compilation option. Compilations are intended to be used for multi-artist albums, but often you'll get an album from a single artist tagged as a Compilation since the Gracenote database has an error in it.

They aren't there because you didn't transfer them.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.

In future do not rely upon being able to download again. The policy could be discontinued without notice and then you'd be in a mess. Even now you still can't redownload everything. Transfer properly next time and make backups.

Why are some items on the purchased list duplicated

Perhaps you are repeatedly checking for available updates while downloads are in progress. This can sometimes cause more than one copy to be added to the download queue.

Album Purchased from iTunes Store split up

I purchased the new Robbie Williams Swings Both Ways (Deluxe Version) album from itunes store last night but it has split the songs up as follows :
Songs 1, 2, 4, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 together
Song 3 on it's own
Song 5 on it's own
Song 6 on it's own
Song 7 on it's own
Song 10 on it's own
How can I get them all back into one album?
Thanks

Hi!
I am experiencing the same kind of issue. This week, I was downloading / purchasing an album on iTunes with iTunes 7.2 The download happened while iTunes was being updated (through Apple Software Update). 6 of the 8 songs got downloaded and then my computer froze. Downloads were still on-going and iTunes update was still installing. I had to restart my computer.
When it restarted, I had to start "Apple Software Update" over again for iTunes to work again. When it completed the update, only 6 of 8 songs were showing on my library. When I clicked on "Store" and "Check for purchases" and it allowed me to download the missing two songs.
Unfortanetely for me, now these two songs cannot be played by iTunes. As described in this post, iTunes simply skips these songs and goes to the next one. My computer is authorized correctly, and all other songs (purchased or not) are ok. I have also tried to download the Song of the week, and it hasn't solved my issue although the song of the week plays correctly.
Any idea??
Thanks!

This one is very strange. One track from album won't import...

I have been trying to import a CD I own for a long time. I'd hoped that getting my new Mac might have solved this problem but...
The CD in question is fine,. it works and imports OK, in totality, in my partners account. It plays fine in my account. However when I try to import the album into my iTunes library every song except for one will import. The one song which won't import is my favourite from the album, sods law. I have tried every which way to import both the whole album and the single track on it's own to no avail.
I can delete the whole album and re-import it. During the import process iTunes tells me the track is being imported and goes through all the motions but when all is said and done the track does not appear anywhere in my iTunes library. Believe me I have searched for it both in iTunes and the Finder and it is not there! If you look in the folder in the Finder for the album every track is there correctly numbered etc. Except track 12 is skipped and ain't there, it goes from 11 to 13.
This is driving me up the proverbial wall. Please if anyone can offer any advice I will be very grateful...
With Thanks in advance...

maybe a long shot but it won't hurt trying:
check if you have read & write permissions for your iTunes music folder. in finder, right-click on it and +get info+. unlock the little padlock (you may have to enter your admin password) and change the permission settings. next, click on the little gear-shaped icon and +apply to enclosed items+ like so
you may also give everyone read & write access. if this doesn't help, try the same on your iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder).
now try to import the track again.
if still no joy, this might be a workaround:
create a new admin user account on your machine, log into that, fire up iTunes there, and try importing the CD. if it works, move track 12 in the finder to <MacintoshHD>/users/shared.
log out and back into your usual account. in iTunes there, choose +add to library+ and navigate to the shared folder.

Album vanished from album page

After doing some editing on my site I published it and found that when I looked at it to check it one of the albums on my Album Page had disappeared. It is still in iWeb however.
Any help, please.
Also, I had created links ( Back to Album Page ) on my photo pages because some of the folks I send it to may not realize what the " Back to Index Page " link is for. The links I created did not appear after publishing.
Any help,please.

Hold everything guys, and this is for Cedric, Roddy and Cyclosaurus and before I go any further I want you all to know how much I appreciate your assistance, and your patience with me.
The plot thickens...I previously started another thread with this question :
" I started with a trial,and before it ended I paid for a year but I keep getting reminders that in a few days my trial will end. How can I contact a living person to straighten this out ? "
I found out, during my trying to straighten this out, that I wound up with 2 accounts, lorrdon, which was marked as a soon - to - expire trial, and lorrdon1 which was marked as a paid account with almost a full year to go.
I had contact with billing support at .mac trying to sort it out and was told that I was now lorrdon and that I could not transfer data from one account to the other.
I sent them a strongly worded e-mail telling them I had to have this corrected and although I have not actually had a reply from billing support I just realized, a few moments ago, when I was trying to see the result of applying Cedric's last fix suggestion , which was :
" In the page browser bar of iweb (left panel) you have the Our Albums page and at its left there is a triangle. Click on it and the photopages of the album contained in the Our Albums page show up. Now you select the 'Round the house page and drag it somewhere else in the iWeb page browser. It will not appear in the Our Albums among the albums anymore. Publish the Our Albums page. Now drag it back on the Our Albums page and it will reappear in it. Republish."
that I could access the webite either as lorrdon or lorrdon1 but that as lorrdon which now shows as the paid account and for which the Albums page was complete, and as lorrdon 1 where there was still an Album missing.
I'm wondering if billing support made the change I wanted and simply hasn't told me that directly.
I can login under either name, but if I login as lorrdon1 and then click on " Account details " the next window shows as lorrdon, not lorrdon1.
What do you think ?

Artists with one album + non-album tracks, non-album tracks vanish

usually, the menu structure is artist > all/albums > songs. but when there is only one album for an artist, ipod goes artist > songs directly.
this would be a handy timesaver, but it's problematic if you have one album and a bunch of non-album tracks for a particular artist, as ipod seems to want to pretend the non-album tracks don't exist. i don't want to make up album names for non-album tracks, cause altho it would fix browsing-by-artist, it would screw up browsing-by-album.
i suspect this is a bug and not a handy timesaver; my last ipod never did this, and also this ipod (like my last one) still (extremely annoyingly) makes you select "all" for artists for which i just have non-artist tracks (i.e., i get a screen where the only option is to select "all", which is stupid, and crying out for remedy).
is there a fix? also, is there a way to make ipod skip the "all" screen when it's redundant?
sorry if already asked and answered.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Those songs have to have the album info entered. This is the way it is for newer (5G and nano) iPods.
As for the all screen, no, you can't do anything.
I would...

Track which reports are downloaded most by the users

I have Zcubes on which I have reports . Now I want to track which reports are downloaded most from the website and what reports are looked at most of time ? how is this possible?

Sany
You can get the information from St03. You need to go to BI Work Load . This will give you all the details related to the InfoProviders. This will give you the number of reports under each Cube executed by the users. But you need to enable the BI Stats to get this information.

I have ios7.1.2 on my iphone and am trying to upgrade to 8.0.2. I haven't installed 8 yet and when I try and upgrade nothing happens. It says just the improvements from 8 are available but not the whole ios. What to do?

I have ios7.1.2 on my iphone and am trying to upgrade to 8.0.2. I haven't installed 8 yet and when I try and upgrade nothing happens. It says ios8.0.2 improvements from 8.0.1 are available but not the whole ios. What to do?

It sounds like maybe 8.0.1 has downloaded onto your phone but not installed. You can check for it in Settings > General > Usage > Storage, Manage Storage. If it's there you should see it at the top of the list of apps. Swipe to delete it. 8.0.1 was pulled by Apple quickly after it was introduced due to issues and replaced by 8.0.2. Once it's deleted you should be able to download and install 8.0.2.

I just bought a new album and it isn't showing up in the library

I just bought a new album and it is in the source folders, but is not showing up in the library and i can't listen to it... please help

the rest of my music still works fine!

Tracks being played are automatically being added to library!!!

Is there any way to stop a track being played from being added to the library?

There's no way I know of to stop iTunes adding the song but if you right click on the file and choose Open With and then QuickTime you can listen to it without using iTunes.
