Certain songs not showing up

Hey guys. There are certain songs for the same artist that are not showing up on my iPod when I scroll under "Artists." They are on the iPod in general, but does anyone know why they aren't showing up? For example, I have 6 Tom Petty songs, all of them which are labeled as "Tom Petty," but when I scroll through Tom Petty under Artists, only one of the six songs shows up. The other five I have to find by scrolling under "Songs." Help!

It's a bug/oddity.

  • Certain characters not showing

    I'm having a problem with certain characters not showing on Safari. Some websites are okay, but others, like Livejournal and babynames.com, only show about four characters per word. On some message boards, certain characters such as parentheses and capital L do not show up when I type them, but show up fine on the completed post.
    What is going on? Do I need to download a new copy of Safari, switch to Firefox, or can this be fixed?
    Thanks!

    Apparently it's getting worse. There are eight more letters that don't appear.

  • Songs not showing up in iPod. Please help!

    Okay, today I noticed that there are select songs not showing up on my iPod touch.
    I make playlists for all my music...and some songs will be in the playlists, and some aren't.
    So when I search for the songs with artists or song name, it's actually ON my iPod and I can play it. Just not in the playlist I put it in.
    So I check on iTunes to make sure they are in the playlist, and they are. And playable.
    So why aren't some of the songs selectable in the playlists? They are on the iPod, but just not in the playlists. PLEASE HELP

    Anyone?

  • My icloud songs not showing up in my itunes window even though itunes match is turned on

    my icloud songs not showing up in my itunes window even though itunes match is turned on

    I Am having a similar issue with my husbands iTunes match. I restored a 2011 iMac and decided to download all my husbands music via iTunes match.  Apart from taking ages, he only has 2,500 songs on the match, it greyed out lots of songs, which later I found out said that they were 'waiting' also, loads are missing. I tried following someone else's thread and tried to delete the greyed out ones so I can download again but I fear I may have completely deleted them. Also, I have a lot of duplicates, both on iCloud and both downloaded! What's happening? My iTunes appear to be behaving ok!

  • Slideshow: why do certain photos not show?

    slideshow: why do certain photos not show; they are properly referenced
    Let me expand on this: I have 570 photos in a slide show and all are properly referenced in my library. In the slideshow window, I can see all the pics in the bottom box and when I run "preview slideshow", certain pictures don't appear in the top box whilst the curser moves across the picture in the bottom box. Likewise, if I run the full screen slideshow, that picture(s) does not appear (I have a blank screen); the next picture does show up, howerver... This happens with several dozen pictures, always the same, randomnley amongst the 570...

    Hello Tony and thank you. I regenerated and rebuilt thumbnails; I deleted the slide show and rebuilt it; nothing works. Now, I noticed something weird. All pictures are in an Aperture project and are properly referenced as I said; all the pictures in this project come from a old iPhoto project where some of the pictures are in a "Modified" folder, others in an "Original" project; it is all the pictures in the "Original" project that don't show up in the slide show.... Do you have any idea what I should do?

  • HT1351 4 purchased songs not showing in my 'purchased' library

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release].

  • Previously purchased songs NOT showing as purchased in the itunes store. I dont want to re-buy something I already have. How can I get this fixed?

    Ive got quite a few songs. I dont want to rebuy one ive already got. Why are my songs not showing as purchased in store like they once did? How do I solve this issue?

    Hi,
    Go to song view, add iCloud status. To do this, go to menu > view > view options and tick box. This will tell you what has been matched, uploaded, purchased, duplicate, ineligible or waiting. As the scan is stalling with one track remaining, find this track - it is likely to have a icloud status of waiting.
    Suggest that you delete from library then select update iTunes Match. Once match completes try readding track - by the way how. Big is the track and whatever is its media type?

  • 7th gen nano syncs only certain songs, not my full library.  Ipad and old nano sync fine.  How do I get 500 songs v. 63?

    7th gen nano syncs only certain songs, not my full library.  Ipad and old nano sync fine.  How do I get 500 songs v. 63?

    **1. Separate these out first without deleting anything from i tunes libary?**
    iTunes:
    Set up 2 iTunes playlist, one for songs & the other for talking books.
    **2. Then simply transfer my 500 odd tracks of music to my new nano?**
    Connect new iPod to computer & set it to manually sync.
    Move your music playlist to Devices. Music will sync to your new iPod.
    *3. Once all this done, delete songs (only) from the old nano just leaving my talking books?
    Connect old nano to computer.
    Under Devices-Music: Start deleting all the songs including any song headings you have in the left column under Music. This will delete from the iPod yet leave your iTunes library intact.
    Read the iPod nano (5th generation) - User Guide for other suggestions.

  • Certain shared songs not showing under ios but share fine to itunes under mac os x

    I'm sharing my music library from an up to date itunes (11.0.1) under mac os x (10.6.8). Certain songs/albums are not visible when I access the shared library from an iphone 4s (fully updated) but show up and play just fine when accessed from other mac os x machines?
    Any ideas what could be the problem?
    Thanks

  • Songs not showing up in Artists section

    A few artists of mine will not show up in the Artists section of the iPod, but their albums will show up in the Albums section. When I play the album, the artist is displayed correctly on the Now Playing screen. How can I correct this so that the songs are visible in both the Artists and the Albums sections?

    This isn't foolproof but 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 marked as part of a compilation or 2) it is missing an album name.
    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. Compilations are stored in a separate folder in iTunes so the songs don't appear inside the normal Artist>Album folder which may be why this happens.
    Also if 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 but the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous in place of a title.

  • Songs not showing up in each category

    I've just purchased my first iPod and I'm having some difficulties when I update the ipod with new music. I've filled out all of the information about the song (artist, album, genre, etc...) but for example, if I go to a particular artist all of their songs do not show up in that category. I've double checked each song on iTunes and the information about the song is correct... Help!

  • Certain Album Not Showing

    Hi I bought an album from the iTunes Store, but it is not showing in my library. (I have iTunes Match). When I go to view my past purchases in the iTunes Store, it says they are downloaded...Where are they???
    Using iTunes 11

    I've got a similar issue--certain songs show up on my iPod when I'm connected to iTunes and view my iPod contents thru iTunes, but when I eject the iPod and look for these certain songs on the iPod itself, they don't show up.
    I have tried deleting them from the iPod and then retransferring them to the iPod. Sometimes this may make a few of them show up, but then inevitably they disappear again from the iPod.
    I've tried resetting the iPod.
    These are not songs purchased from the iTunes store.
    Any ideas?

  • All songs not showing under artists name - even though spelling is the same

    I have 8 songs by a particular artist. Only one shows under "artist". I have checked 5 times - spelling-everything is the same for the artist. All of the songs can be found under "songs". I have checked spellings over & over. What could be my problem?

    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 marked as part of a compilation 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 and view 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.

  • Songs not showing up on my iPhone 4 and iPad 1 on iOS 5.0.1?

    I have about one third of my music library not showing up on my iPhone 4 and iPad 1, even though it is ticked and everything, on iTunes it says that it should have been synced...
    For example, I have 'only sync ticked songs and videos to my iPhone/iPad' enabled in iTunes, and all songs by Katy Perry are ticked, but only about 4 show up? the songs that didnt show up are there if I look for them through albums, but they don't show up under the artist 'Katy Perry'.
    Basically, iTunes says the songs are synced, but they aren't on the iDevice.
    Also, I don't have match enabled, is it something to do with iCloud taking this music 'off' my iDevice because I didn't download it from the iTunes Store?
    Thanks

    Hi Steve,
    I guess I'm confused.  Are you trying to sync with match? or is match off?
    If you are trying to sync with match on then go to settings>music> and make sure that the show all music toggle is turned on.
    If you are trying to sync with match off and are trying to put files onto your phone without usiing match then uncheck the music tab under your phones information on your computer and then let it sync and take everything off.  Then recheck the music box under the music tab and go to your summary page and make sure that the box that says sync only checked music is selected and resync.  Sometimes you have to take everything off before you can get it to resync and put stuff back on.
    Again, if you talking about what you see with match turned ON, on your ios device then make sure that the toggle for show all music is turned on.
    You cannot sync with your computer and itunes match at the same time.  You have to do one or the other.
    Please let me know if I misunderstood your question or did not answer it properly.

  • Songs not showing up in the Music folder but in a playlist

    Hi,
    Something weird is happening with iTunes.
    Just before upgrading to 10.5, I had a problem where after opening a M3U playlist from the finder, the playlist was added as a regular playlist.
    I can play the songs, when I go in the Get Info of the file, I can see that the file has been copied to the iTunes Music folder.
    But when I look for the new imported songs from the top Music Folder, then the songs don't show up.
    I opened the iTunes Library XML file and the songs are correctly listed.
    Any idea?
    Thanks!

    Sorry, just to clarify, this is my problem:
    When I double click on a song from my computer, it plays in iTunes, but it is not copied into my music library. Also, when I import a audio cd, it imports but does not show up in the music library, nor can I click and drag it there or to my Iphone. In the past clicking on these tracks would automatically save it in my library. I noticed this problem last week perhaps after upgrading to iTunes 10.1.2.
    Any help or advice is much appreciated. Thanks!
