Compilations: Can you show just one album cover with mixes/compiations?

Using the current iTunes (11.01) is a misery. I have numerous mix discs and compilations, and for each title eg Royksopp's BACK TO MINE mix, there are about 15 tiles of the album, one for each song. In extreme cases, there may be over 100. Since I have God knows how many songs, easily in the tens of thousands, this is an extremely inefficient way to display my collection.
Is there any way to display albums with just the one album cover and title showing each time? THis is ridiculous.
Thanks in advance.

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?

HT1451 A new album purchase downloaded each song as an individual album with its own album cover. How do I consolidate all songs under just one album cover like the rest of my library?

A new album purchase downloaded each song as an individual album, each with its own album cover. How do I consolidate all songs under just one album cover like the rest of my library? How did this happen?

Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.
BTW, are you really still using Windows 2000?

Can You Lock Just One Page but not whole site?

I'm sure this was answered -- but now I cannot find it in the topic list.
I want a particular site to be open to one and all. But I want to lock just one page on that site -- which would require a user name and password. My attempts so far end up locking the entire site.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
Richard.

if you search this forum for "password one page" you will find some previous posts.
There is one that mentions creating a second one page site and passwording it with a hyperlink in the first site. Might be the way to go. I don't believe you can currently password just one page.
good luck

Why can't I can't sync just one album but I can sync any other music?

So I bought an album a week ago. I was listening to the music on it just yesterday but today when I looked at it the whole album disappeared. All the other music was still there. When I tried to sync the album back on the phone it didnt work. It works for all the other music though. Plus when i look at the album on the store it says purchased but it won't let me download it. It is just this one album. It is called 1989 by taylor swift. I have an iPhone 4s.

I think I've solved this.
In address book only the Macbook Pro had my own card set as 'My Card'. Although Mobile Me was syncing the address book it obviously doesn't carry the My Card attribute across so this wasn't set on the other two Macs.
Weeks I've been looking at this and then I find the answer a few hours after posting the question

HT2736 Can you buy just one song or only whole album?

When I go to gift a song it brings up the whole album?

Pool Repair Tech,
When you gift from an iPad, it only allows gifting of a whole album, not an individual track.
But if you log in to your iTunes account on a computer (PC or Mac) you can gift a single song by clicking the little triangle and choosing "Gift This Song" from the menu as shown.

Can you migrate just one file(iPhoto) to a MacBook Pro?

How do you migrate from a MacAir to. New 13 in MacBook Pro the iPhoto file, everything else came thru Icloud

Yes, you can.
The iPhoto Library contains all your iPhoto contents, it's in your Pictures folder on the account on the MacAir.
If you just want one photo out, then you can right click on iPhoto Library and "show package contents" and inside is a fodler called Originals, open that and locate your picture and copy it over.
You also can export via the iPhoto program on the Air.
Use a external drive or USB thumb drive depending how much you have.
If your Air is worthless as a machine and you need to access the storage drive...
My computer is not working, is my personal data lost?
As a note, just because your iTunes may have come through iCloud doesn't mean it's safe, supposedly someone here deleted their old machine data and thus all the newer machines iTunes music disappeared....
I don't trust or use the Cloud for anything after reading horror stories like that and others...

Using Airprint on iPad, can you print just one page out of many?

When I print using my PowerBook, the printer utility comes up and I can print only the pages I want to, not necessarily the whole list of pages. But when using Airprint on the iPad, I get no page selection choice, just PRINT or CANCEL. No instructions in the Users Guide for iOS 6.1 or iOS 7, nor in the Artisan 837 Guide either. Is there a way to print just the page or pages I want, and therefore save on paper and ink? Thanks!

Google show that you have to cut what you want to print and then paste it into a new app and print from that app.

Can you restore just one app?

Could not sync backup after updating to 4.2. decided to set up as new iPad. Really only two apps that had data I would like to recover. Is there a way to recover data from a single app at a time rather than try the complete restore process that hangs about a third of the way.

Unfortunately, there is no way to save the data for individual apps unless those apps use iOS file sharing and you can transfer the files to your computer or send the files/documents using DropBox.
There simply is no practical way to troubleshoot this without just adding one app at a a time to the iPad until the problem creeps up again. That entails deleteing all of the apps and starting over again.

Can you buy just one license for remote desktop

i want to access a single computer from another laptop. is the 10 license copy of remote desktop all that is available? if so, can someone offer me any other solutions?
thanks,
mike

I use the VNC Client 'Chicken of the VNC' which you can get from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/
Tiger already comes with a VNC Server installed - simply go to the control panel, click on 'Sharing' and turn on ARD as an option there. Then click on the button 'Access Privileges' and tick the option 'VNC viewers can take control of the screen with password...' (and put in a password too...).
VNC allows you to have pretty much complete control of the computer remotely - you see a window with the desktop visible on the computer running COTVNC (or whatever). However VNC does not support file transfer too / from or allow you to do things like install software remotely (and whatever else ARD would allow). But you can simulate most of these other ways if required.
Hope this helps.

HT1420 how do you deauthorize just one computer?

Can you deauthorize just one computer you no longer have? And if not when you deauthorize ALL, do you just reload???

when you deauthorize ALL, do you just reload???
No you do not reload. When you deauthorize, your music stays exactly where it is.
You can reauthorize at any time, provided the computer is in working condition and you are able to physically access it (and you still know your ID and password).

I have music files by the same artist but they are listed in itunes in more than one album hod can i add then to just one album pf that artist

I have music files by the same artist but they are listed in Itunes in more than one album hod can i add then to just one album of that artist I am using windows 8.1 .

iTunes will group songs into an album when:
All songs have the same value for the Album and Artist field, or
All songs have the same value for the Album and Album Artist field
All songs have the same value for the Albumfield and the Part of a Compilation flag is checked.
If you want to group all the songs by one artist into a single "album" you can do so by following one of these rules. However, it may be more useful to create Playlists to group music like this and retain the original release information. One Smart Playlist for each artist you're interested in would meet this need without over-writing information about the source albums.

How can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

how can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

Jim,
Take heart. We can help.
First turn on page view so you can see how the content of your sheet fits on the page(s). A Numbers document contains sheets (listed on the left) which in turn contain tables, charts, text, and graphics. Select the sheet you want to print on the left, then enable page view by selecting the menu item:
"View > Show Print View":
Now you should see your content and how it fits on one, or more, pages. If thie content is too big for one page use the controls and the bottom left of the window to expose the sheet controls:
Here a table is too big to fit on one page:
slide the "Content Scale" slider so the content fits:

When i go play a song on my iphone it shows the wrong album cover.... How to fix?, when i go play a song on my iphone it shows the wrong album cover.... How to fix?

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!

The ! shows up because the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window has lost the connection to the file it represents. There are two main reasons why this occurs: database coruption and/or User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder - in this case your Party Library.
1. Hold down the abbpe and option keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild the database.
2. Have you renamed, altered or moved anything in the Party Library Folder?
As for the mulitple versions of photos: Your Party Library (or any Library) is arranged as follows:
In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command - very useful if you don't like the changes you've made.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
So each version of the Image has a distinct role to play. To distinguish them in a Spotlight search, use file size - the tiny ones are your thumbnails etc.
Your Camera names the files. Some Cameras have a setting which allows them to sequentially number across cards. You can also use titling in the iPhoto Window to distinguish them (Photos -> Batch Change) and some people copy the pics onto their machines first, rename them with a batch renamer and then import them into iPhoto.
The book is simply a virtual album of photos and is part of the library6.iPhoto file.
As to your plan of moving and patching things up... It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss. SO try rebuild the database first.
Regards
TD

HT2905 I have duplicate albums but no duplicate songs. One song showing in one album, the restof the songs in a duplicate album. How do I get them to merge into one album?

I have duplicate albums but no duplicate songs. One song showing in one album, the rest of the showing in a duplicate album. Album, artist, genre all identical. how can I get these albums to merge together into one album?

Change the album title to AlbumX, apply, then change back to Album. Repeat as necessary.
