Certain Albums Have Songs Not In The Right Order...

I believe this is a bug from iTunes. Lately my songs from albums are having songs dis-located as having certain tracks in the beginning of the album instead of where they belong. The wierd thing is that it appears to be fine on iTunes but it's totally different on the iPod. A friend of mine is having the same issue. Any ideas? Is a fix coming?
Thanks.

disorder, lots of people are having this problem but no one in this forum that I've seen seems to have an answer. It's probably flat-out Apple's fault on this one. It appears that workarounds are the best it's going to be for now unless this gets addressed in a later issue of iTunes/iPod updates.
Meantime, here's a suggestion from a user, spitfire411 in another post:
"hi, I had the same problem but found an easy solution.
The problem is that with the new itunes, not only is there an "Artist" in the tag, there is also "Album Artist." If some songs in an album have values for "Album Artist" and some don't, your tracklist will be messed up on your ipod.
Simply add the "Album Artist" column to your iTunes browser by right clicking on the sorting columns (title, artist, time, etc.) and check "ALbum Artist." I found it useful to drag this column in between "Album" and "Artist."
If some songs in an album have include values for "Album Artist," either delete them or add to all, this should re-sort your tracklistings."

The album artwork that is in the right order on itunes isn't showing up on my ipod, and when it does it's not with the right album.

When i look at the itunes thing it doesn't even mention anything about album artwork... ( i am putting this in the itunes section also)

After I import a CD iinto itunes,some of the tracks are not in the right order and not all of the tracks will sync to my ipod

I'm trying to import a cd into itunes but the cd tracks are out of order and when I sync the tracks to my ipod touch 4 not all tracks get synced.Can anyone please help me?thank you .

Hello Melissa,
Definitely a little odd that some episodes will sync and others will not, especially since they are from the same season. How the videos were encoded may be slightly difference, so much that your iPod no longer friends them compatible.
I would have a look at this article.

Since these are videos that were purchased from the iTunes store, you won't be able to convert them in any way, so you may be out of luck.

I recently downloaded Season 1 of Homeland Security using Apple TV and the episodes are clearly mixed up and not in the right order -what are my options?

I recently downloaded Season 1 of Homeland Security on my Apple TV - the first four episodes were fine however episode 5 was clearly not episode 5 but a later one and episode 6 that was supposed to be 57 min in length was a 2 minute profile by the directors and producers of the show, How do I fix this? Help!

You will need to contact iTunes

When I copy an artist over to itunes and that particular album has multiple albums, it does not separate the albums but lines up all of the songs...such as all the 1's..then 2's and so on. How do I fix that?s

Should that read "when I copy an artist over to itunes and that particular artist has multiple albums," because if not, I don't understand?
If I'm right about that, I'm still not really clear at all about what you're doing. Where are you importing these songs and albums from? Is it existing songs files and if so, what format are they in?

I try to insert some images on a website but the images are not in the right color mode. I do not know what to do? and also I have 1200 images to insert so I can not change one after one. So I need to set up an action, but I donot know how to do it... Tha

What is the problem specifiaclly?
If the images are intended for web use I would recommend converting them to sRGB which could be done with Edit > Convert to Profile or with File > Save for Web, but as including a Save step in Actions and applying them as Batch can sometimes cause problems I would go with regular converting.
You could also try Image Processor Pro.

In iTunes, go to File>Add File to Library or File>Add Folder to Library.

Text does not move to a new line, I have to scroll to the right???

In Safari and Firefox browsers when looking at some webpages the text is one long line and I have to scroll to the right to read everything. How do I restore the text so it goes down instead of across?
I searched for wrap text but could not find anything.
Thank You

Hi M'Q', Welcome Back.
It seems to be site formatting. I get it all the time in these forums when someone posts a crash log. The lines don't wrap and spread it out sideways.
My WAG; we just have to live with it. :~(

In IPhoto 11 I have made an album and rearrange the photos in the order I require them. When export the album to allow me to burn them to disk to be viewed in Windows they do not maintain the same order. What am I doing wrong?

When you sort the Album in iphoto are you sorting manually? Or by date of the photos?
When you sort in the Finder how are are you sorting?
Here's one way to do what you're trying to do:
Create your Album and sort the pics as you want them. Then Photos Menu: Batch Change -> Set Title to Text "John's Birthday", for instance, and tick the box to append a number to each Photo. Now your photos are titled 'John's Birthday 001, John's Birthday 002 ... etc'
Then File -> Export and in the Export dialogue set the Filename to "Use Title"
Sort on Filename in the Finder and you end up with a folder full of images in the same order as the Album in iPhoto.

Go back to the article you asked this question from and pick a method of contacting Apple. Posting in these boards isn't one of them.

HT4539 I have 2 year old I-phone 4 that has never been updated. I need to download an update from my computer but can not find the right place on the I-Tunes page. Do you know where is the right place to update a phone that does not have an "update" butto

My (old, never updated) I-phone has no "update" button in Settings and I would like to update it. I can not find the right place on I-Tunes to download the updates. Do you know where to look?

Why is the entire song is in the right channel?!

I thought my headphones were broken!
In a only single file in GarageBand, the entire song is in the right channel. All of the tracks but 2 are software instruments that I recorded from a MIDI keyboard. The other 2 are loops from the library. Every track is panned at 0 - left & right. I checked the master track and there's no pan option. If I select a new software instrument for recording it's only in the right channel.
If I open a completely new file and do the same thing, it's panned normally, in both left and right. Everything else on the computer is in stereo - itunes, the duck when I change the volume, you name it. Just this one file - NOTHING in the left. If I pan anything to the left, it can't be heard.
I tried saving the song as a new file - same thing. I created a new song - and the sound is fine - stereo.
Is my song file corrupt? Is there something I can try? Am I going mad?

could be, but it's hard to tell from here

yes.
i think you probably have mouse that can scroll (magic mouse, etc). there is an invisible pan knob on the master track, if you place the cursor to the right of the popUp menu for the Master Volume, Pitch, etc, and scroll your mouse, you'll see numbers appear describing which way the Master track is being panned.

My ipod is not playing the correct order of my songs in playlists

my ipod is not playing the correct order of my song order in my playlists. it plays random order of playlist songs

You may have tapped the Shuffle button (looks like two arrows crossing path) in Blue. Tap it once again to turn it off.

I transferred my iPhoto FACES to my mini iPad and: (a) they are not in the alphabetical order I had them in, (b) some of the FACES have been deleted, (c) the EVENTS I checked off in iTunes do not all appear in the iPad?

Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there.
Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A Finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for the iPod Photo Cache. Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.
