Artists not showing in the list

Hi, I have a iPod classic 80 Go, and when I look into my artists list, some are missing. I have the correct tags in iTune, everything seems okay when I import the songs but the artists won't show up. I can still listen to the album when I go into the Song list and the tags are showing okay when I play these songs. Anyone have an idea?

It could be that you have inadvertently imported these CDs into iTunes as part of a compilation. If so, the artists won't show in the artists menu on the iPod.
To check, highlight the tracks on one of the offending artists CDs in iTunes, right click and select "get info". This brings up a multiple song info window, and from there you can check if you have 'yes' in the box marked "part of a compilation".
If you have, select 'no' instead and click 'ok'. Do this with any CD that has this issue. This will alter the info in iTunes, and you should then connect your iPod and synchronize the changes.
The problem arises because the information contained on the Gracenote CD Data Base (where iTunes gets all it's album/artist/track info from), is sometimes incorrect. It can show CDs as compilations when in fact they are not.
You should also check that the songs have album name info in their ID tags.
See: Some songs don't show under artist on my iPod.
Once you add a second album name for that artist even for a single song, ALL the rest of the songs should now show up under that artist, even those without album names.
Providing the spelling for the artists is exactly the same of course.

    Hi all. I recently restore my old iphone 5 on my new 6. I'm having problems with bluetooth devices. The ones that were already paired with the old one are not showing in the list, and most of them(not all) are not working or pairing. I already restored network settings to no avail. Any ideas?

  • Album Cover/Title not showing in the List for an Artist with one album.

    Hello all.
    I have browsed a number of the posts, but nothing close to my particular problem.
    I am new to iPod Classic (a couple of months). I like it! Used to be a Creative Zen Vision:M user.
    Here is my issue.
    I have most of the covers for my albums. Still looking for a few.
    When I go to the Artist's menu and pick an artist, if it has more than one album, it shows 'All Songs' and a list of albums with covers, album name and number of songs on a separate screen. You click an album and it shows the tracks, you click a track and away you go. That works just fine.
    However, when the Artist only has one album, it does not show the album cover, name and number of songs on a separate screen. It just shows the list of tracks. I would like it to be consistent. I would like to see the album cover/name before I click the tracks to start.
    I have worked all my songs in iTunes. I'm pretty sure there is no difference between the one and multiple album artists.
    Of course when you click a track to start, the album cover shows on the Now Playing screen.
    Is there some sort of setting I might have missed.
    Any thoughts on this? What might I try?
    Thanks in Advance ...
    Bob

    Wow!
    Is that really so?
    I'm not questioning your answer. Just want to make sure before I say OK and let it be. I had heard that iTunes/iPod forces you to do things their way, this is an example, I guess!
    Thanks for the input.
    I guess I'll just have to leave it be!
    Is iTunes the only way to deal with iPod? Are there any other programs?

  • Music On iPod - Artist Not Showing Up On List

    I have a few Gentle Giant albums, but they don't appear on the Artist list. The iPod is perfectly synced to iTunes, and the music is there (the songs appear on the Songs list), but when I go to Artists they don't appear. I have an iMac G5 if it matters.

  • Where is my purchased music in iTunes?...they are listed but not showing in the list

    I went into iTunes to check out the new "Purchased" area and found a really helpful list of artists on the left hand side.  Each one has a number next to it which I believe is the number of songs for each artist.  When I click on many of the artists I get a list of songs and it indicates whether they are already downloaded to that computer or not.  I can then click on the ones I want on that machine and they will download from the Cloud.
    Sounds great but where the heck are all the other tunes that are shown on the list on the left but they don't show up on the right when I click that artist?  There was one band in particular that I wanted to download because I think the only place I have it still downloaded is on an old machine that is no longer online (its packaged up in my basement).  That's one of the ones that has nothing in the right hand list... no songs listed - even though the list of artists shows it has having 24 songs.
    Can anyone tell me what is stopping those ones from showing up?  Are they too old for the system?  If I bought them on iTunes previously they should still exist...am I missing anything?
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Only songs (or Apps, books, etc) that are still currently available in the iTunes store for sale can be re-downloaded.

  • Some artists not showing up on list of artists on iPod

    The albums show up and play OK, but when I look for the artist in the artist list they are not there.
    Should I empty my iPod and reload everything onto it?

    There are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song is incorrectly marked as part of a compilation (and you have Compilations enabled on the iPod) or 2) the song has no album name associated with it.
    if the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. If you are using iTunes 8, in the the multiple items info box the compilations setting is in the "Options" tab. Setting "Compilations" on your iPod main menu prevents you getting lots of single artist entries when you load an album by various artists.
    Also if the tracks are missing an Album name in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances (for instance I read somewhere that if you have at least two tracks with different album names the rest will appear), however the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous to all the blanks in place of a title.

  • I was unable to accesss ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso from Downloads via InfraRecorder because itdid not show in the list of Downloads when I browsed using InfraRecorder.

    From [http://www.delicious.com/askrefwt/Software__Linux?sort=alpha&order=asc http://www.delicious.com/askrefwt/Software__Linux?sort=alpha&order=asc] askrefwt's Software__Linux Bookmarks on Delicious I accessed [http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download Download | Ubuntu] Download | Ubuntu . From there I downloaded Ubuntu into the Firefox 5.0 Downloads folder. That took a while.
    I followed their advice about installing '''InfraRecorder''', but when I followed their advice about using it nothing happened because I could not access the Download by browsing.
    When I went into Computer and C: drive I did not find it listed among the downloads instead finding only some folders. I think that there might be a second download folder which does not show for some reason. I seem to recall that, but I don't know how to access it if that is indeed the case. It should show up on a list somewhere. I guess that it does not show up under Programs because it is not installed.
    (I thought of trying to use [http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ Pendrive Linux] Pendrive Linux to do this but instead tried this first. This might require less space.)
    The program is '''698 MB''' long. I guess that might fit on a CD.
    I am not really sure that this is Firefox's fault. I suppose that I could try accessing it through Internet Explorer.
    Thanks for trying to help me with this.

    If the download is still listed in Tools->Downloads in Firefox then select it in download window and right-click and "Open containing folder" to see where it is.

  • Google calendar is not showing in the list of calendars in the iOS Calender app

    I'm following this link to sync Google calendar with my iOS Calendar app on my iPhone 5:

    It sets up alright and I can see it in the list of calendars in the settings but nothing is sync'ed in the Calendar app itself. Also while in the Calendar app I click Calendars in the top left corner, and this Google calendar is not even in there and I don't know why (since it is in the settings -> mail, contacts, calendars -> accounts.) Very frustrating!

    You need an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print directly from iOS devices, but unfortunately, your Canon ip2000 is not on the list of compatible devices.  See this Apple support document for more details:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    A possible workaround that might work is to try an App like Print Central on the iPad and iPhone. This will allow the iOS devices to print to most printers. But, there is no way to guarantee that it will work with your printer.

  • Iwant to get rid of Asktoolbar. it is not showing on the list to deinstall

    I downloaded a free PDF to DOC software taking care to untick the boxes saying did I want a toolbar and to be the default browser, but they ignored that and now I have a toolbar I don't want, and the software only partly worked. I have looked in control to de-install Ask but they don't appear in the list of installed programmes, and I can't identify them by any other name.
    I don't want either the toolbar, nor do I want Ask as my default browser.
    In fact I shall make a point of never using Ask about anything again, I am so disgusted at their underhand tactics. It's not as they even have an attractive toolbar!
    Can you help?

  • New asset class not showing in the list (AS01)

    Dear Experts,
    I have created a new asset class through the following configuration (IMG):

    - Financial accounting --> Asset accounting --> Organizational Structure --> Asset Class --> Define asset classes
    - Financial accounting --> Asset accounting --> Organizational Structure --> Integration with G/L --> Assign G/L account
    When I would like to create a new asset through AS01 and want to choose the new asset class, there was not a new asset class I've configured before.
    Am I miss a step when creating the asset class then?
    Please advice.

    Hi Putri,
    Company code is assigned to Chart of Depreciation.
    Just want to make sure that you go to t-code : OAPL first and then input your Chart of Depr.
    Afterwards you can go to t-code : OAYZ and activate the depreciation area for your asset class.
    All you have done is already ok. So just make sure that you work in the right Chart of Depreciation when you do the OAYZ.
    Hope it helps.

  • I am cleaning up old programs and find there are 2 versions of FF installed. I just installed RC versio and it does not show in the list of installed programs so I am lost as to which one to delete, V4.0 or 4.0b8

    so which one do I delete?

    You probably only have an orphaned entry left in Add and Remove programs and only have the last update of the Firefox 4 version installed. It happens more often that the updater doesn't remove the entry from the previous installation, but only adds a new entry for the new, updated, version leaving you with two entries. You can use a registry cleanup program or remove the registry key yourself if you are comfortable with editing the registry.

    Thanks Bhavik,
    I got the answer , actually I didn't experience it before with site workflows , it shows where we create a list just beside you can find site workflows, off course feature activation is necessary after that for workflow activation this is the way.
