Compilations are messed up in iTunes 11

Since upgrading to iTunes 11 my compilation albums are messed up into individual artist per song. They were fine in v. 8,9 & 10. I've checked that the sort artist, sort album artist & album artist fields are blank & that "part of a compilation" is ticked.
Help, please!

Setting Album Artist to Various Artists should merge things back together.
Alternatively go to the Songs view, enable the column browser (ctrl-b or alt will open the menus), and experiment with the setting of View > Column Browser > Group compilations.

  • I have an iPhone 4 on IOS5. I signed up for itunes match. After everything uploaded to the cloud, my songs are messed up. I'll select a song and the title will show with the right art work but a different song will start playing.  Anyone have a solution?

    I have an iPhone 4 on IOS5. I signed up for itunes match. After everything uploaded to the cloud, my songs are messed up. I'll select a song and the title will show with the right art work but a different song will start playing.  Some songs won't play at all even though they do appear in the itunes store. The artwork almost always shows u blank until you turn it to landscape then it will appear. Anyone know what's going on?

    I have found that scrolling through the album list (past albums without art) triggers the progress wheel next to the wifi symbol. You can scroll quickly through the whole collection and then wait! Artwork will appear gradually...
    However, repeat visits to the Music App might initially show no artwork again, but it might spontaneously appear more quickly this time. The bad news is that the whole Music App is now sluggish as ****...

  • Since downloading itunes 10 my ipod's features are messed up.  Currently I'm looking to delete apps.  They no longer appear on left side of itunes screen.  I try to click on apps on top of screen but apps are in a shadow mode and I can't click on them.

    Since downloading itunes 10 my ipod's features are messed up and many do not now work.  Currently my problem is I want to delete some apps.  It no longer shows on the left side of itunes.  When I click on apps at the top, the apps appear shadowed and i cannot click on them.  If I check the box to sync them it says I will lose what's on my ipod and the things in my library will replace them.  What should I do?

    If you are completely confident that you didn't hide it, then you purchased those with different apple id. If you completely confident that you purchases with same apple id then you have hidden it. One of the other or you are speaking about a miracle. While miracles are possible they are not very likely.

  • I updated my ipod touch to 5.0.1 but now all my artists in my music are messed up. Help?

    I updated my ipod touch to 5.0.1., and it works great except for one thing. All my artists are messed up, it's like my ipod while it was updating, took the time to go online and look up exactly who sang what. For example i had tons of disney songs, like the lion king's circle of life, the little mermaid's kiss the girl, ect into one artist that i named "Disney". But now they are all seperated into "Lion King Soundtrack" and that kind of stuff. Also, for example this one band, NeverShoutNever has many ways to write their name: Never Shout Never, NeverShoutNever!, NEVERSHOUTNEVER, and in my ipod they are all put as 3 different artists. But on my itunes playlists it doesn't do that.
    How can i put it back like i had it? It's very annoying and very confusing. Please help!

    You can try unsyncing all the music and then resyncing. Sometimes that works. Sometimes not.  This ia problem with iOS 5/iTunes 10.5

  • Compilations are breaking my heart-simple question...

    OK folks, this is a simple question - so why can't i find a clear answer anywhere? I am running Itunes 8, Win XP, been running Itunes for my music for about 4 years.
    Current setup 3 users running Itunes on same pC.
    My problem is when I browse my lbrary each song in my compilations are showing upas different albums e.g. "O Brother where art thou" has 14 different "albums" as do some home-made compilations I have been given.
    "group compilations when browsing is selected" but obviously isn;t working
    It's obviously simple but not to me...help
    Thanks

    You mention enabling the iTunes option to *Group compilations when browsing*, but have you also set the *Part of a Compilation* flag to Yes for each track of your compilations? See my recent post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

    How did you do that?  Do you mean you sync to iTunes that had the ipad library?
    The phone with the issue, settings - general - reset - erase all contents and settings - this will wipe the phone clean and then restore from your backup.

  • Just updated my iPad  with iOS 7.0.3. my iPad music downloads are messed-up, the regular album tracklist is disorganised...can't get them "back on track" who can help me out? Greets Alex

    Just updated my iPad with iOS 7.0.3 > my iTunes music downloads are messed up....the regular tracklist of the albums are in chaos, can someone help me out to get them " in line" again!?

    Well I basically answered my own question. I just ended up deleteing the tracks from the albums missing artwork (I highlighted all of them and right clicked delete) then just dragged over the album again that had the artwork already set and it worked like a charm.
    Couldn't figure out any other way to do it. Still open to ideas for the future if anyone has any.

  • After iOS 5 upgrade my "artists" are all screwed up on my iPhone but are fine on my iTunes. ANY SOLUTIONS?? HELP!!

    After iOS 5 upgrade my "artists" are all screwed up on my iPhone but are fine on my iTunes. ANY SOLUTIONS?? HELP!!

    I had a similar problem to you that I have since solved.
    At first only some albums/songs were missing artwork but they all showed up fine in itunes. I went into itunes and did the view where the album art is displayed next to the album in a list, middle option for viewing. I found that on several 1-2 songs did not have the artwork attached and so that was the cause of it not showing up on my iphone. However after I got all that solved I found that the artworks were all messed up. Much like you described many songs had the complete wrong artwork and some songs on the same album had different artworks or the same artwork showed up on multiple albums.
    I could only come up with resyncing my iphone to solve it. I only use one playlist for my iphone so that I can sort of do manual management and only have to deal with one playlist. So I unchecked the playlist and did a sync to clear off all the audio. Then I rechecked the playlist and did a sync to reload everything and after that was done everything appeared correctly.
    I didn't notice if this was affecting any of my purchased albums, I don't have that many so I didn't think about it but affected a lot of them. I hope this helps in some way and that you can get it working again.

  • TS2776 After installing iTunes 11, we can no longer sync our iPhone and iPad devices with Outlook 2007 or 2010.  We are trying to install iTunes 10 to replace iTunes 11. Anyone have a fix for this?

    Since installing itunes 11, we can no longer sync to our Outlook 2007 and 2010 calendars (there may be other Outlook files included in this syncing problem). Using the iCloud is not an option as it does not support Vista OS.  We are trying to reinstall iTunes 10.7, however; that is not going particularly well, either. Does anyone have a proven solution for this mess?

    FYI: It seems it was a network problem with my WinXP PC. After complete deletion and new installation of XP and iTunes my iPhone will be recognized correctly, Wifi synchronization works (mostly) fine.

  • Installed 10.10.1 Now all accounts are messed up!

    I installed 10.10.1 and now all my user accounts are messed up. They act like they are brand new, No settings are saved. Can't log into iCloud…  Error is "You can't sign in at this time" It's been that way for about an hour. This is bad!
    I installed 10.10.1 from an admin account where I have Server installed… The Cache was corrupted so I had to delete that!  All else in my Admin account seemed okay.  Then I logged into my user account all everything is messed up. First is asked me for my password because it needed to "rebuild my library" thinking that it was talking about my iPhoto library because it does sometimes need updating… so I entered it and now No iTunes Library, iPhoto Library…. I logged out and back into my account and anything I did to the settings even after the install is not saved… I checked an it's not listed as a guest account. Mail has no accounts and when I try to sign into my Gmail account it just locks up solid!

    Booted single user, home dir and all content owner/permissions looked ok.
    System Preferences > iCloud, signed out of iCloud, deleted iCloud content from Mac, tried to sign in again which failed with the usual "Cannot sign in now".
    Console log shows new error now:

    So same problem, my Mac no longer trusts Entrust certs. This time, I manually went to https://setup.icloud.com/ with Safari and it also complained about an untrusted cert but also said the cert was valid:

  • I recently purchased a song and my entire song library was deleted after it downloaded. The photos and aps are still there, but no tunes. Anyone know how to fix this? I have songs loaded on the ipod that I don't want to loose and they are not in MY itunes

    I recently purchased a song from itunes and when the song downloaded, it deleted/removed my entire song library. Only leaving the one song.
    My photos and aps are still there, but no songs. Anyone ever encounter this and how do you fix it? I  don't want to loose my songs as some are not in MY itunes library. Help

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

    If they aren't showing in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app (and the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes) for redownloading then have you checked to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 ?

  • How do I transfer all of my songs from Iphone to itunes as lost everything, some songs are not bought from itunes and have been from borrowed CD's but I really want them in itunes library?

    Hello, Please help as I tunes havent got back to me yet!!
    A couple of months ago, I lost all of my music/itunes etc as my computer needed a complete restore. When it re-installed itunes there was no songs on it at all and would only let me transfer the purchases made on my iphone from itunes back onto my library. The problem I have is that I want to upgrade my phone to the iphone4 but dont want to lose all of the songs on my iphone, some are downloaded from the itunes, most are from CD's that I still own but there are some great songs that I have put on from borrowed CD's or another download company i.e. hmv music downloads and those are the songs it will not let me transfer into the library on my computer so when I get the new phone, I could just sync and they will all be there.
    Please help as I do not want to lose any of my songs
    Thank you

    for purchases from the iTunes store do this:
    connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    for everything else check out this post by Zevoneer.
