Coverflow repeats cover for each song of album

hey everyone, coverflow is funky on my machine. many albums will show a cover for each song in that album, so you see the same cover 15 times. i can't figure out why. the album fields are identical.
wazup?
thanks

Hi agentswitters,
If John's reply (above) didn't fix it (ie, making the problematic albums into compilations), check to see if the 'album artist' field is populated. If these fields contain different names, iTunes will think each track belongs to a different album. Blank them out and it'll assign 'various artists' to each compilation.

Is there a way to have one main cover artwork for an album that has artwork for each song?

For example The Fall by Gorillaz has unique artwork for each song but when I'm in album view it only shows the artwork for the first song not the actual cover of the album. I'm wondering if there's a way for it to display the actual album cover in album view and the artwork for each song when it's actually playing.

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.

In Cover Flow, a compilation album shows different covers for each song. How do I make it show one cover for the whole album?

Also in the first page of Get Info for all tracks set the Album Artist to be Various Artists.
If you select all the tracks and right click to get info then you can do all the tracks in one go

If I add artwork by dragging a jpg to the artwork area after selecting several rows, in some instances a single icon is created in the flipper; in others one is created for each song. Why? How can I get one image per album every time?

Why do I have separate albums covers for each song

Apple is a business. And a business exists only to make a profit and incidentally render a service. The corporation cares about you equally as much as Microsoft does. C'est la vie!

Album Art Only Displays For First Song of Album

If I play an album via my iPad or iPods music app through AppleTV, the album art will display correctly for the first songs played from that album, but is blank for the others that follow. If i individually play each song, the album art appears correctly.
Also, if iI have a playlist and two songs from the same album play back to back, then the second song does not have album art. However, if another song plays between the two songs from the same album, the art appears correctly.
If I play an album from iTunes on my Macbook Air through my AppleTV, there are no cover art issues.

Per someone elses suggestion, i reset the device and the issue still exists.

How do we create a a main podcast category with sub-categories similar to the way many bands have subcategories and artwork for each of their albums?

How does a content producer create a main category with sub-categories similar to the way many bands have subcategories and artwork for each of their albums?

I think you're talking about an 'Artist Page' in which several podcasts are 'aggregated' into one iTunes Store page? This Apple Tech note deals with the subject (scroll to the bottom of the page):
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/creatorfaq.html
Although your mention of albums makes me wonder whether there you are talking about albums and songs in the music Library? - podcasts don't come in albums.
You've also asked this in another forum:
I have created a feed for our podcasts, but they are all under one umbrella. We would like to have subcategories under one main category.
'A feed for your podcasts' doesn't make sense - a podcast has one feed (and vice versa). Are you confusing 'episodes' with 'podcasts'? A podcast is a collection of episodes - you can't categorize the episodes separately. The category shows only on the Store page and applies to the entire podcast. The 'Artist' page may again be what you are aiming for - if not perhaps you could post an example of what someone else is doing that you would like to.

Can i store my music on my device without using my data in my phone plan streaming from the cloud? How do i put what I want on there without waiting for each song to download from the cloud one at a time?

How can I store the music I listen to on my iphone without streaming it from the cloud and using all my data on my phone plans? How do I dump it on my phone all at once in itunes rather than waiting for each song to download individually from the cloud?

What?? You asked how to get all your music on your phone at once rather than downloading it to your phone from iCloud.
Go to your purchased list in iTunes and download all your music to your iTunes library, as explained in the linked article. Then sync it all to your phone using iTunes you're done. The music will be stored locally on your phone and you won't have to download it again in the future.

When I paid an additional .30ct for each song can I download to a CD ?

Itunes: When I paid an additional .30ct for each song, am I able to download on to a CD?

All songs bought from the iTunes store can be burned to a CD. It doesn't matter how much they cost.

For each song in my iTunes Library just before the name of the song there is a check box. What is the effect of checking or unchecking this box?

Unchecked items will not play unless specifically clicked on. They will not be included on shuffle and will not be synced to ipods.

'Repeat Subform for Each Data Item' is greyed out

Hi there,
I need to make a certain subform repeatable but the 'Repeat Subform for Each Data Item' is greyed out. It's parent subform is not greyed out so I can make this repeatable but this is not the requirement.
Is there another setting that prevents a subform from being repeatable?
Many thanks,
Kieran Kelly

I guess you need to set the set the content flowed instead of positioned for which subform you want to repeat.
Click on the subform you want to repeat in the hierarchy panel , then in the object panel click on the content and set in the flowed format.
Hope it helps .
Thanks.

Language of Voice Over for each song on the iPod nano 7g.

Can I set the language of Voice Over for each song on the iPod nano 7g, or how could be automatically detected? I have music in several languages and I want to hear the name of the song in the language in which it is written .

acknowledge the problem

I have multiple songs I would like to include in my slideshow. Can I change the rate of presentation for each song? For instance, upbeat song with a 2 secong presenation time and slower song with a 3 second presentation time?

Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
PhotoToMovie $49.95
PulpMotion $129
FotoMagico $99
Final Cut Pro X $299
It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro X is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.

When I import a CD album that includes songs with co-artists, the album is saved once with all of the songs with the main artist only, and then one album for each song with a different co-artist. How can I avoid that or fix that result after the fact.

When I import a CD ablum that includes songs with co-artists, the album is saved once under the album name with all the songs from the main artist; then each song with a different co-artist is saved separately under the album title with just that song. Who do I prevent that or fix it after the fact, i.e., copy the single songs to the main album?

Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together? - http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1468
Compilation checkbox is under options tab when editing multiple tracks at once.
