DVD tracks are in separate folders in iTunes 9
Is there a way to have multiple tracks from a DVD saved under the same folder in iTunes 9? Currently they are all saved in separate subfolders in the "Movies" folder, but I would like to have them all in one subfolder. I tried everything I could think of: I gave each track the same album/artist/year/genre/artwork , I made them part of a compilation, and I gave them a grouping category. Still nothing
With iTunes handling music by album and TV Shows by season, why are Movies so poorly managed (although 9 is a big improvement from past versions). Or is it just me?
Thanks
Did you add the tracks you got back to the iTunes library or just drag them into the music folder? If you just put them in the folder the library won't have been updated to recognise that they were there.

Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP -
Hi,
Yesterday I wanted to upgrade my wife's iPhone (5, 16 GB) from iOS 7.0.6 to iOS 7.1.
She had only 500 MB of free space, and 1.9 GB was needed, so I decided to temporarily remove a number of songs from her music library.
After this operation there was 2 GB free, and the upgrade went successfully. After the upgrade there was still 2 GB free.
Then I wanted to download the songs again, and here something went wrong:
I went to iTunes Store > More > Purchased > Music, and clicked on "Download all".
When the download process was completed, there was about 500 MB free space, but I noticed that some of the tracks, and even a complete album, were actually not in the playlists; in another album only one of the 30 tracks or so was downloaded. So I went again into iTunes Store > More > Purchased > Music, and indeed some of the tracks were still marked as "to download", with a little cloud in front of them.
When I tried to click on one of these little clouds to download a given track, the track seemed to be downloaded, but as soon as the download was finished the little cloud reappeared again, and the track wasn't added to the playlists.
I tried to repeat that process a few times, until I noticed that there was now only 90 MB of free space.
I then tried to download one more track that was 10 MB large, and after this there was only 80 MB of free space.
So it seems that the tracks are indeed downloaded (and downloaded again if I click again on the little cloud) in a place where they use disk space without being otherwise accessible.
What can I do to:
1. download the tracks correctly so that they appear in the playlists?
2. clean up the space that was wasted?
Many thanks in advance!Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those tracks and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page. -
I received the message 'The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing. This can happen as a result on installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes.' I have re-installed iTunes and still receive this message. Any suggestions?

iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes -
Just like the title... Music files are missing and I don't want to locate each folder individually, how do I get itunes to locate all of the music without taking each music file out from the album folders they're in?
Hi,
The article below will explain in general how your iTunes files are organized on your computer.
Where are my iTunes files located?

Yes, it's the "Registry settings used by iTunes ...." issue which has been a problem going back at least to 2009, according to the posts here. You would think that Apple would make an effort to solve this, but apparently it's not of concern to them. Style - yes; function - no. Sigh.
In any case, I've read many of the ~200 threads and have, without success ....
* Reloaded iTunes
* Deleted iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Application Support
* Verified that iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled
* Installed Gear drivers
System: Windows 7, 64-bit, 8GB RAM, all programs/updates/drivers current. Toshiba/Samsung CD player (current drivers).
Occasionally in this process iTunes has behaved properly when a CD is loaded, but then it reverts to dysfunction. Most frustratingly, the error message appeared immediately after that deleted/verified song and dance described above and recommended by Apple.
I have not gotten into messing with my registry because, well, if that's the level of user involvement required here then the program is truly broken. When I owned a 1959 Triumph I often had to tinker with the carbuerator, adjust the timing and use an ether starter spray, but automobiles seem to have progressed since then. I thought that Apple products "just worked." No. I've used Macs in the past and though I'm not a Windows fanboi, my work requires it and I've found Win 7 remarkably stable over the past 3 years. I've NEVER had an issue like this with any program (and I've installed/deleted/used many dozens).
Is this a fixable problem or should I just dump iTunes for something else that actually works? Opinions and suggestions appreciated. Thanks.I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK.

ANY way to burn MP3 CDs/DVDs with folders on iTunes??
Hey all, so I was trying to backup my mp3 collection onto a burned DVD or two (it's pretty big), but that could still play them when I put it into my computer now and then.
iTunes has always been pretty good about burning MP3 discs that'll easily play in your computer (I haven't yet tried burning a DVD as an MP3 disc, but I've heard they work the same). However, the one drawback about it that I see is that the MP3 discs don't really separate the actually albums/songs on the disc when you try opening it on the desktop into actual folders by album/artist/etc., they're all just kind of cluttered together (so if you wanna recopy/reburn an individual album off an MP3 disc back to your computer, you've got to do a Show File in Finder on iTunes and hunt & drag 'em in the Finder, as opposed to just having one folder that you can drag back onto the desktop, Toast, etc.) And that's just with one 650-700 MB CDR; if you're dealing with 4.7 GIGS of music, you can see how it'd be a pain to organize and keep track of).
I know that for PC, Windows Media Player can find any play data CDs with music on them pretty easily. Is there a similar player for Mac users??
I hate to ask about other programs on an iTunes forum, but maybe you guys can relate to this problem, have found ways to deal with it (in the past I've just color-labeled the songs according to album so I can visually see which songs go with which on the Finder, but again, you can see how that'd be a pain to do w/ 4.7 GBs worth). Thanks.Sort the playlist by Album and Burn and the DVD will be in Album folders.

Songs in my Itunes show up as separate folders. How do I combine them into one album?
Songs in my Itunes show up as separate folders. How do I combine them into one album?
Is this one of those CDs where the main artist asks their friend to sing a song with them?
Such as, Slash's new album. Track 1 is "Slash Feat. Ian Astbury", track 2 is "Slash Feat. Ozzy Osbourne" and so on.
To fix this, select all the tracks on that album, right-click > Get Info, and say YES to changing multiple items.
Put "Slash" in the *Album Artist* field (for this example, of course).
Make sure it is the *Album Artist* field, not the plain Artist field. -
Hey Guys,
I need some advice. I had about 9000 pitures and photos in my camera roll folder.
I wanted to manage all these pictures into separate folders for easier access.
I imported all the pictures onto my pc, and created and managed the pics.
I synced the phone and excluded the photos,as advised on the site.
The I disconnected the phone, connected again and included the pictures.
On the coclour tab it indicates that all the pictures are there, after syncing,
but on my phone, nothing appears.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there another way of importing my pictures
onto the phone and keeping the separate folders?
Thanks,If you don't find an iTunes backup as suggested above, another possibility is that the phone was setup to automatically back up to iCloud. You can go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage to see if your device name is listed there. If it is, the section titled "How do I restore an iCloud Backup if my device is already set up for use?" in the following link gives directions on how to resore it: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4036
Also, I'm sorry to hear you lost 5 years of pictures. Having them in one place (as you unfortunately found out) is not a good idea as all kinds of things can happen including loss of the phone. If you have a computer it is a good idea to periodically import them to the computer where you can see that they have successfully transferred to a second location. Following is instructions on how to do that if you want to in the future: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083 -
Burning photos in separate folders to DVD from iPhoto/F
Hi,
I have sorted my photos into various folders within an album on iPhoto and would like to burn these onto one DVD in their separate folders (as opposed to lumping them all onto one DVD in one big folder).
Unfortunately, when I insert a blank DVD and choose Open Finder, it no longer shows the photos in their separate folders, they are all bunched together. This would not be a problem if my SuperDrive (and Windows PC) didn't take a dogs age to preview the photos once they are burnt onto DVD but it does, therefore, I like to break them up into folders of around 100 photos each in order for the photo previews to load reasonably quickly.
Does anyone know how to keep the photos in their separate folders and burn them onto a DVD keeping them in their separate folders please?
Many thanks.Let's make sure we have the same terminology here. In the left hand pane of iPhoto we have folders and albums. Folders can hold albums. So are you referring to albums within a folder?
If so you will have to export each album's photos to a folder on the Desktop via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option. Once all of the albums have been exported to its own folder drag them onto a blank DVD disc in the optical drive and burn. -
I have just added an album to my iTunes from a CD. But the tracks are now displayed in 2 places in my iTunes library -- as if I had downloaded 2 seperate albums. How do I consolidate them into a single album in my iTunes?
Did you use the same method to add each of the six albums to your library? With some of iTunes configuration options, some imports (CDs, Store purchase, use of the Automatically add to iTunes folder) will go into the standard media folder location, but the other methods to add media files already on your PC (Add File to Library..., Add Folder to Library..., drag and drop) will leave the files in their original spot.
The other factor that may influence where iTunes locates media files is the setting of the "part of a compilation" flag in the media metadata. When this flag is set iTunes (when configured to organize your media and copy all additions to the media folders) will place files in iTunes Media\Music\Compilations\album_title rather than iTunes Media\Music\artist_name\album_title. -
I'm getting this error message: "User not registered for online use" when i'm trying to download music/ track names from a CD into ITunes on my Windows 8 PC. I'm registered and my itunes account/ appleID are all correct and working.
The ""not recognized for on-line use". error is associated with the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to look up and retrieve metadata for CDs. Some users have reported that this error occurs when trying to import from CD, subsequent to upgrading to version 12. A number of slightly different solutions have been reported (though all of a similar nature).
Try walking through the following steps - before starting you may have to enable hidden files and folders to be viewed - in Windows 7 / Windows Explorer select Organize > Folder and search options, then on the View tab make sure that Show hidden files, folders and drives is selected. Without this you won't see the AppData folder in C:\Users\username\
Exit iTunes
In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
Delete the following files:
CD Info.cidb
com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
Restart iTunes
Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
If this doesn't work:
In iTunes, select Edit > Preferences and make a note (or take a screenshot) of your preferences settings in all relevant tabs
Exit iTunes
In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
Delete the following file:iTunesPrefs.xml
Restart iTunes
Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
If this second procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1.
If this one didn't work:
Exit iTunes
Check the following folders:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Apple Computer\iTunes
Delete any copies of the following files:
CD Info.cidb
com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
iTunesPrefs.xml
Restart iTunes
Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
Again, if this procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1 of the second procedure. If you're still not able to retrieve CD info:
Exit iTunes
In Windows, select Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features. Find the entry for iTunes, right-click and select Repair.
When this process has finished, restart iTunes
Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
If none of these have worked (and almost everything I've seen suggests you should be OK by this point), you may have an issue with the installation and configuration of iTunes itself. If you have got this far, see turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for advice on how to remove and replace of all components of iTunes. -
Tracks from imported cds are appearing as though they are from separate albums.Particularly if they are compilations.
You can use iTunes to select the multiple tracks of the same album, and give them the same Album Name from the info window.
If that does not solve your problem, be sure to check if your songs have different sorting albums. If so, change or delete the text in the sorted albums text field.
