Albums on iTunes (in cover view) not the same as on iPod

I have 700+ albums in my iTunes library. In iTunes everything if fine. BUT on the iPod, There are 38 albums that show up at the end of the (alpha/numeric)artist listing and are listed in (alpha/numeric) album title order. I have tried (1) changing the album name, (2)unchecking the selected album and re syncing, (3)deleting selected albums re-importing and (4) deleting all 700+ and re-importing ALL. Same results. It does not may any sense. Example Amy Whitehouse will import and be listed at the end of cover view on my iPod sorted by album name (back to black) but is listed at the begining in iTunes cover view by artist name amy. This means that I have scroll through 700+ album sometimes to find the album I need because it is not listed where it should be.Any help out there.

These albums will be marked as Compilations. They would show up in the same place (at the end of cover flow) in iTunes if you were using the the Advanced Preference *Group compilations when browsing*. For those albums that are not compilations, select all the tracks from the album, Get Info, then on the Options tab set, *Part of a compilation* to No.
If any of your albums feature guest artists however you will be exchanging one problem for another. See my post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums for more information.

Smart Playlist in iTunes not the same as on iPod?

Hi all,
Currently I am in the process of making my entire CD collection (> 800 CD's) available on my new iPod classic. Ripping goes fine, no problem at all. But I have a problem with the Smart Playlists. Every CD in my collection has a unique number. I put that number in the 'Comments' section of every ripped CD (select all tracks of an album, go into 'Get info' and fill the 'Comments' section with a number like 0245).
In iTunes I create a smart playlist containing every CD within a range of, say, 02. In iTunes I then see every CD starting with the number 02 (from 0200 to 0299). When i sync with my iPod, the playlists are available, but the sorting is not ok. I see a lot of tracks, but not organised by CD as in iTunes. Is there a way to change this so that on the iPod the sorting is the same as in iTunes.

Select your Smart Playlist in iTunes, arrange it in the order you want, then right-click on the Smart Playlist title in the sources panel and click on *Copy to Play Order*. Sync. Your iPod should now have the correct play order.

Preview versus Real View Not the Same, Site Definition Errors - Dreamweaver CS4

I am having trouble working on sites where it seems that Dreamweaver wants me to specify different file locations for various "includes" depending on whether I want to view the site as a preview (F12) vs. on a local test server vs. on the real website server. Note I am using Dreamweaver CS4 (ver. 10) on Windows, my local test server is Apache running via an Xampp installation on Windows, and my production server is also Apache, running at Hostgator. I am building a fairly basic html site using SSI via SHTML files, rather than PHP or a more sophisticated method. Here is what seems to be happening:
1. In my index.shtml file I call, for example, a subheader file called "header-nosub-menu.inc.htm." I have my site definitions set to "relative to document root." Using the insert -> SSI command, Dreamweaver links to the file with the following: My first problem is that, as specified, the subheader.menu.inc.htm file is not found and the preview gives me an error. I get the same error if i try to display the file on my local test server (http://localhost/domainname). However, if I upload the file to my production server, it seems to work fine. If I change the include command to: #include virtual="./includes/subheader.menu.inc.htm," by manually inserting the "./" to change the directory reference, then the file seems to work in all three situations Which is the correct directory specification, and why is Dreamweaver not generating it automatically?
While I can make the manual changes in the directory specifications, I am concerned that if Dreamweaver is making an error in this instance, it may generate more serious problems that are harder to find later.
2. The second issue seems to involve the Site Definition file configuration.I get an error message when I set up my site definition in what seems to be the correct way, specifically, using the following specifications:
Local Root folder: "C:\htdocs\domainname-dev\"
http address: "http://www.domainname/"
testing server folder: "C:\htdocs\domainname-dev"
url prefix: "http://localhost/domainname-dev"
The error message is: "The site url prefix for the testing server does not match the site url prefix specified in the http address for the site."
However, when I change the testing server url prefix to one that does not yield an error message ("http://localhost") I then have problems with the preview (F12) display. Specifically, instead of a preview request generating the following url: "http://localhost/domainname-dev/TMPm393xnclqu.shtml" I find that it generates the following: "http://localhost/TMPm393xnclqu.shtml" The so called incorrect definition seems to be the correct one, but why is Dreamweaver not recognizing it as such? Am I making a error somewhere else in my configuration?
I would appreciate any assistance that anyone here can provide,
Thanks,
http://localhost/

except for the Apache virtual host configuration, which I do not see a need for
I wasn't suggesting that you use virtual hosts (although I have defined about 50 virtual hosts on my own development machine). I was trying to understand the url you listed:
http://www.domainname/
Without a virtual host definition, that would have no meaning and could not point to anything, unless you simply were leaving off the TLD in the example. (.com, .net, etc)
I often use the PHP $_SERVER superglobal to define paths and handle differences between the development environment and the remote server environment. Examples:
DOCUMENT_ROOT: D:/ZendServer/Apache2/htdocs/website/ranch (machine path)
REQUEST_URI: /topic/calendar (url parameters)
SCRIPT_NAME: index.php
HTTP_REFERER: (the url of the script preceding the current script)
HTTP_HOST: (this is the domain name. It is very useful for distinguishing between the local and remote environments)
COMPLETE EXAMPLE:
echo "<p><a class='noPrint' href='".$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']."'>RETURN TO PREVIOUS PAGE</a></p>";

Apple ID for iTunes and iCloud are not the same? How to change iCloud id

My wife changed her Apple ID via her iTunes account. Her iCloud account is set up on her old email address and she cannot access it, therefore the Cloud is not syncing. How can I get the iCloud account to work? Was the iCloud account changed when she switched her Apple ID and with the same password?

She will need to sign out completely in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud and then sign back in with the new ID.

IPhone calendar month view not the same as iCal

I have my iCal on my MacBook & iCloud set so that the start day of the week in Monday. This means that in the Month view Monday is the 1st column with the week-end, Sat & Sun columns on the right side of the screen. However, on my iPhone4 the 1st column is Sunday, follwed by Mon - Saturday.
Is there a way of changing th esettings on my iPhone so that the calendars look the same as on my Macbook (or iCloud)?

Hi Brian,
On iOS this is taken from the Regional Format option in Settings > General > International. Mine is set to United Kingdom and Calendar.app has the week start as Monday. There may be other results of changing this setting.
Best wishes

I'm trying to transfer an app I purchased on my iphone to my computer (MacBook), it has the latest version of itunes, which has a different layout. I can't seem to figure this out. Please help? Thank you.

Then change back to the old layout:

I have a tiny problem that is driving me mad. When I am playing an album in iTunes using cover flow view (with the playlist beneath the artwork picture) the picture is exactly above the album title. All is symmetrical. When I switch to full screen display, the artwork moves a couple of inches to the left and the display is therefore asymmetrical. Why and how do I correct it? It would drive you mad to.
Thanks for any help,

I was having the same problem, but tried the "Top Button + Home Button" reset and that did work for me. My unofficial guess is that perhaps RAM caches get filled through daily use of various apps leaving no memory for cover flow. Resetting the phone on the phone itself seems to reset that RAM. I can't say it's a cure-all, but it solved my issue. Hope this helps.

HT1725 I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest of the songs keep trying to download and then come up with an error saying they cannot download at this time. I'm not sure what the issue is.

I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest keep trying to download, but I keep getting a message that says, "Song cannot be downloaded at this time. Do you want to retry or be done." Each time I retry, the same thing happens. They will not download. I have restarted my phone and the same problem remains.

Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a number of days.
Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

I purchased an album from itunes, and a song in the middle did not download completely. All the others did. So, I obviously could not transfer that song to my ipod because the file could not be converted. What can I do?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

ITunes randomly stops playing purchases that have previously viewed on the same hardware. It has an error message about HD. How can this issue be resolved? What information is available besides the "learn more" option that does not deal with the problem?

Many people have the same problem. However, there is little or nothing readily available to users. This problem has existed for two or more years. Does anyone have anything to offer about this disturbing problem?

Thanks for the suggestion kcell. I've tried both versions
9.0.115 and 9.0.124 and both fail with the policy permission error.
I also tried with and without your crossdomain.xml file but
with the same result. It looks like this file is intended for URL
policy, instead of socket policy. Recently Adobe separated the two.
When I run with the files installed on my dev PC, it does
work, which makes sense because the flash player isn't loaded from
an unknown domain.
I did get one step closer. If a crossdomain.xml in the server
root exists and the socketpolicy file is loaded from the app folder
then the first two warnings disappear. The logs now show:
OK: Root-level SWF loaded:
https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf
OK: Policy file accepted: https://192.168.2.5/crossdomain.xml
OK: Policy file accepted:
https://192.168.2.5/trunk/socketpolicy.xml
Warning: Timeout on xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:843 (at 3
seconds) while waiting for socket policy file. This should not
cause any problems, but see
http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files
for an explanation.
Warning: [strict] Ignoring policy file with incorrect syntax:
xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993
Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993 by
requestor from https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf is denied due to
lack of policy file permissions.
Which basically says, everything is okay, but you stay out
anyway.
PS: I found the XML schema files here:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security_02.html
and the socket policy schema:
http://www.adobe.com/xml/schemas/PolicyFileSocket.xsd.
UPDATE: When serving up the policy file on port 843 using the
example perl script then the socket connection seems to be accepted
and the connect succeeds. After that flex hangs trying to logon to
the IMAP server.

Bought an album off iTunes and two songs from the album will not download. Is there anyway to make them force load or anything along those lines?

Hey ChandlerAdaway!
I have an article here that can provide you some guidance for this issue. First, you will want to check for the songs in your past purchases list for your account, if you haven't already:
Downloading past purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If the songs cannot be found there, you will want to report an issue with your download by following the directions in this article:
