Chose wrong Album-Artist option when prompted
When I put a CD into my computer it occasionally asks me to select from a list of Album-Artist pairings. On a recent CD, I chose one of three options listed, but the song list is incorrect (has duplicate song titles, rearranged song order, etc.). When I stopped the import and put the CD back in, it remembered my selection and no longer prompted me to choose, instead auto-selecting the one I had incorrectly chosen before.
Any advise?
None of here work for Apple so if you a 'when' question contact them.

Music Manager - Not Recognising Album/Artist
Hi All,
This seems to be a bit of a **bleep** - Music Manager is not recognising my Track/Album/Artist titles when I import my music files.
I keep all my tunes in iTunes. Now, I think probably 90% or above of the world population use iTunes to manage their music files, so I'm assuming Music Manager would have been developed with this in mind and should integrate fully on something as simple as a track/artist/album title tag?
Or is there something stupid I'm doing - I have a 5500 and run XP, all up to date.
It's damn annoying to have hundreds of songs on your phone, but when you go jogging/snowboarding/holidays you can't tell which artists you've got on there!
Any news on this chaps? I really don't want to be individually editing hundreds or thousands of tags - is there an update planned for this? Seems like a big bugbear for what are supposed to be 'media phones'.
Any news greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Darren.Hi,
What you can do is from your phone songs copy those songs into My collection of Nokia Music Manager, then all your artists details will be displayed if the artist column is checked (ticked) in Customize view in View option of Nokia Music Manager,the songs which are copied in My collection only be displayed... Yeah i too agree this is an akward but this is how it works

Artist vs Album Artist sort for Cover Scroll
I have a huge library of Cast/Soundtrack albums and have taken much time to sort each track by 1000's of artists. And then use new Album Artist to head each compliation as "Soundtrack" "Original Cast" et al... But for some reason certain discs are read in this new Album Artist while others either default to 1st Artist on Track 01 or default to end of Scroll under Various artists - despite my relabeling??? (even though new label does read on the new title)
sidssp is correct. This is how "Album Artist" is intended to be used. But there are two problems with this IMO:
1. Having "Ray Charles & Norah Jones" and "Ray Charles & James Taylor", etc on the individual tracks as the "Artist" and "Ray Charles" on all the tracks as the "Album Artist" is cool when one is searching the library. However, when one is browsing the library this is a major PITA. The browser control keys off "Artist" ... and there is no way to switch it to use "Album Artist". When I search for "Ray Charles" I want to find any track he is on ... regardless of whether he is the main artist or featured artist. I can then select the exact track I want from the results. But when I browse for "Ray Charles" I am looking for a Ray Charles album(s). Unfortunately, the Artist list shows me "Ray Charles & Norah Jones", "Ray Charles & James Taylor", etc. Now I can select all of the Artist entries and get a list of all the albums that I want, but this is really a pain and unintuitive. Which leads me to the bigger problem ...
2. The iPod does not utilize "Album Artist" at all. If one utilizes the "Artist" field to reflect the main artist and featured artists as intended, then there is no way to quickly locate the main artist on an album, and then select all or individual albums by that artist. Which in my case effectively renders the new "Album Artist" field useless because there simply is no workaround.
OAW
PS: This is nearly as stupid as introducing playlist folders in iTunes and not having any sort of iPod support for the feature! -
Coverflow shows wrong album art
I have a problem with coverflow in iTunes. Some of the album art that is shown during a song is from the wrong album e.g. when I am playing "Greatest Hits" by Stevie Ray Vaughn, it displays the cover of "Greatest Hits" by ZZ Top. I have looked at the art info on each of the tracks, and they are correct. Ideas???
I am having the same problem. Help...anyone??

I asked this question here:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15312099#15312099
It was suggested I re-post in this forum, seeing as the problem may be specific to the Touch.
So, I have lots of "compilation" albums that include songs by various artists (for example, Pitchfork's top 500 singles of the decade). I usually select my music by "Artist," and now my ipod is super cluttered, because now I have hundreds and hundreds of artists listed, many of which I only have one or two songs by from this compilation.
One solution: simply delete the artist information for these large compilations, and then the songs from the compilations will no longer show up under "Artists." Problem is, I would like to know who the artists are when I play the compilation (I simply don't want to have the artists listed under "Artists")
Another solution: I could manually delete the artist info, but paste that info on to the song name. For example, a track that once looked like:
Artist: Nirvana
Title: Smells Like Teen Spirit
Album: Best of the '90s
After my editing, would look like:
Artist: [blank]
Title: Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
Album: Best of the '90s
This would solve my problem...but it would literally take hours to do for each and every individual song. Not practical.
Does any one have any other suggestions? It seems like there would be a way to just check a box for what info you want to be listed (ie, I could un-check "Artist," and then the song would no longer be listed by Artist, even though the Artist information would still be retained for reference). Does this option exist?
In the prior thread, someone suggested I mark it as a "compilation" in iTunes. But that did not prevent the individual artists from being listed under "Artists." Someone suggested that I may need to turn "Compilation" to "On" on my iPod. But that does not seem to be an option on the Touch.
Suggestions?
Thanks!!So, I have lots of "compilation" albums that include songs by various artists (for example, Pitchfork's top 500 singles of the decade).

Why not set the iPod to show Compilations?
In Settings select Main menu (or Music menu) and check Compilations. (You can do so for both if you desire.)
Now all of the Artists that only appear in compilation albums won't appear in Artists.
To get to the Artists that only appear in compilation albums open Compilations in your Main Menu or Music Menu (or either). -
A couple songs on my iPhone 4s show the wrong album cover but they play the wrong song. When i go to albums it shows the right cover but when i pick the song it will show a diffrent cover. Its like some of my song covers are switched. How do i fix this?
There are 2 things you can do, the first (and by far the easiest) is to delete all of the music off of your iPhone and then put it back on. Also you might want to check that everything is in the correct place on the iTunes library. If you downloaded any music from iTunes without using a cd and it is not in your iTunes library you can go to the iTunes Store and on the right side under "Quick Links" and select purchased. It will let you download anything you have ever purchased in iTunes.
The 2nd option is to backup your iPhone and save ALL of your apps to iTunes on your computer. Restore the iPhone and set up as a new iPhone, Don't worry all of your contacts will be in the cloud if you have it enabled. Once you set it up you can re-download all of your lost apps for free. Make sure your iTunes music is all in order and then sync the music back up.
I hope this helps! -
For example, I am putting Kanye West's album "808's & Heartbreak" on my ipod. The track "Amazing" features Young Jeezy. So in iTunes, I list the track name as "Amazing", the artist as "Kanye West ft. Young Jeezy", the album artist as "Kanye West", and the album as "808's & Heartbreak". What I want is for my iPod to have a list of album artists instead of artists, so that I can find the song "Amazing" under "Kanye West" instead of "Kanye West ft. Young Jeezy" or "808's & Heartbreak".
And when the song plays, it should say:
Amazing
Kanye West ft. Young Jeezy
808's & Heartbreak
Is there a way I can do that? I tried using the "album artist" field thinking it would do what I wanted to do, but it didnt. I also tried using the "sort artist" field and typed "Kanye West" in there, but that didnt work either. I wish iTunes was simpler and easier or atleast CAME WITH A MANUAL. Any help would be greatly appreciated THanksHave you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones to rule out a pair of damaged/faulty ones? You might also want to make sure the headphones are securely and firmly seated in Nano's headphone jack. Lastly, check the headphone jack for any signs of debris or damage. You may need to have the headphone jack replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.
I assume this static is present on any track you listen to versus only particular ones?

I am trying to configure my SCXI-1540 w/1315 card for excitation voltage and frequency using MAX - but it is not giving me that option when I click on the card and then properties, am I looking in the wrong place?
I have LabVIEW Express 7.0 Professional - SCXI-1000 Chassiss - along with SCXI-1112, and SCXI 1520/1314 - cable to the PCI-6052E is attached to the 1520 card.
MAX says it recognizes all the cards in the chassiss.Jeremy, Thanks for the reply.
I tried to set up the system as DAQmx.
I had MAX auto-detect the set-up - and it recognized all the cards - but did not select the 1315 accessory on the 1540 card - I had to do that manually - but in the configuration section I would select the accessory and it would deselect itself. I had to get out of the set-up and then right click on the 1540 card and click on the "Accessories" tab and select the 1315 terminal block that way.
It didn't seem right that the system should behave that way, but I pressed onward.
I then tried to create a new DAQmx Task
When I create new DAQmx task and then click on Analog Input no "Position" Tab appears for me to select, all I get are:
Analog>>Voltage
Analog>>Temperature
Ana
log>>Strain
Analog>>Current
Analog>>Resistance
Analog>>Frequency
Analog>>Custom Voltage with Excitation
Do you think there might be something wrong with either my hardware or perhaps my configuration that is not allowing it to recognize the 1540/1315 in DAQmx?
I had included the system report of what programs I am using, etc. as attached file nireport.txt
After the DAQmx did not work I tried installing everything as Traditional DAQ and it did let me set-up the 1540 Card with Excitation Voltage and Frequency and gain - I then went in to the VI that I had built and tried to use the Express DAQ Assisant to read the channel that I am connected to on the 1315/1540 - when I try to use DAQ Assistant it gives me an error saying that "Device not available in NI-DAQmx. It is possible that the device is being use by traditional NI-DAQ"
Which I guess it is since both configurations are now set-up in MAX.
I would PREFER to use the DAQmx set-up, but I am confused as to WHY it won
't come up with
Analog input>>POSITION>>LVDT
When I try to create a new DAQmx task.
Thanks for the help so far! As you can probably tell I am new at this.

When viewing multiple item information, I was wondering what the checkboxes next to "Artist", "Album Artist", etc... are used for.
When checked, it means that you are going to apply whatever is in the box to all of the selected items.

I want to buy the Craigslist pro app and when I sign into iTItem as described and fast shipping! Aunes with my Apple ID and password ( both of which I know) it then asks security questions that I never chose ( or are even options to chose) in my profile.
If you don't know their answers then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use -
Why do I have two album options in my music on my iphone but no artist option?
After upgrading my iphone 4 to the new software, I no longer have an artist option in my music. I currently have two album options instead. The first album option is fully functioning. The second album option, where I think the the artist option belongs, is stuck on a single artist eventhough I deleted all those songs. Please help because this is making listening to music a hastle and its extremely time consuming to play a single artist.

My Itunes library is messed up. Wong titles. Wrong albums. Wrong everything. EX. I play a song by avenged sevenfold but then it plays a song by eminem. Song titles dont match what they play and neither does the artists name. Can I restart everything from itunes? I know this sounds cunfunsing, (and it is) but yeah.
Once again to try and clarify, The song(which itunes says is by artist,band,person, etc) is mixed up with another song out of my libary.
If there's something you dont get ask me!!! thanksI'm experiencing the same issue. Not only do I get a messed up library, but since I've let iTunes handle my music files, they too have been shuffled around - placed in different album folders and sometimes given names of other songs... With quite a large library, the cleanup makes me feel a bit like Sisyfos pushing the rock uphill - it's a never ending story. Only positive side of this is that I get to play a lot of music quizzes while guessing who plays the song that is disguised as eg. Buddy from De La Soul, and then afterwards try to track down the real 'Buddy' as this has also found another folder to hide in...
Shazam has come to the rescue a few times so far...

What do you do when iTunes provides the wrong album art?
What do you do when iTunes downloads the wrong album art? I haven't found an easy way to override this or notify the iTunes store about it.
I have gone in and deleted, and re-updated the artwork. I have also gone song by song and looked to see if more than one piece of artwork is associated. Neither fix this.
Specific current example is the Amon Tobin album "Chaos Theory". The artwork was correct on this until just recently. Currently the artwork downloaded is for the Chaos Theory Remix album (for both the original album, and the remix album).
Who controls this? The content publisher (e.g.-Ninja tunes)?
ThanksGo into the track ot tracks en block and get info. Go to the artwork tab and delete the downloaded artwork. Google to find alternative artwork and then add it to the track(s).

My songs/albums/artists are sorted under the wrong letter on my ipod - how do I fix this?
After upgrading to iOS5, my music is sorted under the incorrect letter during song/album/artist browsing. I tried deleting all my music from itunes/my ipod and reloading it, but it's still wrong. Any ideas how I can fix this issue?
hey i had the same problem but mine didnt fix after the sync
but if you get this problem again just highlight the track then go to file and select get info after that go to the sorting tab and fill in the info and that should be how they appear for example if the songs name is numb and in the sorting field you put numb aswell thats how it will be shown or if you type in corpses it will show up in the c's
