Error - Two Artists, Same Album Name, One Listing.

I was scrolling through the album view a few minutes ago looking for one album in particular to play a certain song and couldn't figure out for the life of me where it was. When I finally found it, it was combined with another album of the same name by a different artist (if you're curious, Leona Lewis' "Spirit" was grouped in with Jewel's "Spirit" album). I thought something might be wrong with my tagging, but I looked at my iTunes in album view and they come up as separate them. Does anyone know how to separate them?

In iTunes, in the 'Get Info' dialog box for the songs in question, have a look at the 'Album Artist' field. Try setting this field to Leona Lewis and Jewel for all the songs as necessary, and then sync with your iPod.

  • I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order.

    I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order. The "Apply Sort Field" and "Same album does not work, but ti is only these two RCA albums that do this. All other albums remain intact. Need help with this minor problem. Thanks.

    UPDATE: This behavior (to an extent) still happens when "Repeat Album" is off. Instead of an infinite loop, it goes through all the tracks on the album (unsuccessfully) and kicks me out to the Album overview screen. Going back to list of Albums and tapping the Album again brings up "No Content: You can download music from the iTunes Store" but that screen immediately kicks me back to list of Albums.
    So I am just even more confused now.

  • Why doesn't the artist and album name show up on my iPod?

    I edit each of my song through "Get Info", so I just simply type in the artist and album name. When I eject my iPod, the artist and album name doesn't show. Solution?

    That happened to me too... It's a glitch... what I did is press sync right when i put my ipod in.. sometimes it doesn't work... just do it some other time again...or change someting in the song (getting info) It appears randomly...

  • Same album name by different artists

    Hi Everyone,
    Im having an issue that I have 3 x 'Greatest Hits' albums by 3 different artists. The problem is that on my 160gig Classic the menu shows each of the albums individually when scrolling through the 'artist' menu. However when scrolling through the 'album' menu the songs for all 3 'Greatest Hits' albums appear under 1 heading. They are not selected as being a compliation on either itunes or on the ipod directly. Is there any way to seperate them without changing the album names? Please Help!

  • Itunes can no longer find artist or album name

    I have not seen this exact problem on the forum. I upgraded itunes yesterday to 10 and then when I synced my ipod touch, almost all of the artist names and album names disappeared. I tried several times to get info and this retrieved some of the information but now it says that it can't get the track information for music not purchased from the itunes store or ripped through itunes. The problem is that all of my music was either purchased from itunes or ripped through itunes except one album. Does anyone have this same problem or can anyone tell me how to fix it?

    Locate and remove the iPod Photo Cache folder(s). A new one will be recreated the next time you sync Photos with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. Deleting this folder will not remove the original images from your library, but may solve your sync problem.

  • Why does iTunes show tracks that I've ripped from a single CD as individual tracks with individual albums all with the same album name?

    I've looked all the data about each track in terms of album name and other seemingly relevant pieces of stuff, but whenever I look at my songs by albums, it still shows these tracks individually. It's like the same album is repeated over and over instead of the album appearing once with all the tracks listed beneath it.

    EG. A CD upload has all of the tracks appearing as indivual alumbs. But as its not physically on the computer anymore I dont seem to be able to do anything about it.  Is there away for me to access cloud and rectify this? or manage it from a device?
    Thanks
    You can edit the "metadata" of the tracks in the cloud just as you would if the tracks were physically on your computer. Hightlight the tracks of the album you want to edit, do a Get Info..., edit "metadata," click OK.

  • Can't change Artist or Album name for multiple songs now.

    I can no longer select an entire group of songs and change the name of the artist or album.  It just ignores my changes.  I can change individual items with no problem, but that is incredibly time consuming if I want to change the name of one of these for an entire group of songs.
    iTunes 12.0.1.26
    Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1
    i7-2600K CPU @ 3.4 GHz

    It works here. It should work for you too.
    See Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows. It isn't entirely clear but as far as I can tell it seems as if some iTunes file activity is undertaken using the user's security account, and some via the SYSTEM account. If your media has moved between systems then there is a possibility that the permissions aren't ideal and perhaps one of the accounts is blocked.
    Alternatively hold down Shift as you Right-click > Get Info and you get the old dialog box which may work better.

  • IPhone showing two of same album - solution?

    My iPhone shows two of the Satellite album by P.O.D
    I always keep my id tags consistent, so they match up perfectly.
    On my iTunes it is fine, but it shows two of the same album on my iPhone.
    I tried unchecking, synching, and rechecking, but to no luck.
    Does anyone have a working solution to this?

    ALSO:
    Despite having matching info in iTunes, the iTunes folder containing "Youth of the Nation" is "P.O.D_" while "Alive" was in "P.O.D". In iTunes it showed both as "P.O.D", no space after the former.
    When I move the former to the "P.O.D" folder, it won't change the directory path in iTunes.

  • How to get back artist and album name

    I have bought or imported all of my music through itunes. However, when I updated to itunes 10, most of my artist and album information was lost. When I try to get the information, I get the message that itunes cannot get the information for items not purchased or imported through itunes???? How do I fix this?

    What's the exact message? The phrase you typed doesn't ring any bells.

  • Songs that share same album name

    I have many songs that I have added over time to a single album name. The only problem is, is that iTunes has decided to split them up seemingly by the version of iTunes has encoded these. Unfortunately, all these songs contain their own album artwork and simply show up as different albums with their own album artwork. Thus, cluttering up my viewer.
    My question is: What is the easiest way to consolidate these songs to a single album.
    Thanks!

    It's not the version of iTunes they were encoded with...it has to do with the info on the tags. See these documents; they should help:

  • ITunes 11... I have multiple artists with the same album name... how do i have them show up as separate albums?

    I have itunes 11 with iTunes Match on 2 Macs and 2 ios devices... I know it all has bugs... but I have been ok.
    I am wondering how to show my library in the column browser view when I have multiple albums with the same names? I have noticed on my ipod in my car that an album titled "Christmas" plays and includes 2 different albums titled christmas... and in itunes it lists them both when not in the artwork view... (I primarily use the column browser to navigate my library.
    Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this/knows how to fix.
    Thanks!

    Various workarounds I can think of which basically involve playing around with tags.  See which meets your needs or come up with others:
    Give the albums slightly different names.  For example, "Greatest Hits" [ABBA]"
    Do the same but do it in the sort album field.
    Add a bogus disc number to different albums.  It may string them together still but at least they will be slightly grouped.

  • Organizing albums with same artist and album name

    This has bothered me for some time.
    I have Bob Dylan's 1973 album titled "Dylan," as well as his 2-disc greatest hits of the same name.  iTunes has merged the albums together.  I made sure the release dates on the songs are different, and even tried changing the sort titles, but iTunes still treats them as one album and mixes the songs together.
    Is there any way I can teach/tell iTunes that these albums should be organized separately??
    Thanks.

    Change greatest hits to "Dylan - Greatest Hits"
    I have Bob Dylan's 1973 album titled "Dylan," as well as his 2-disc greatest hits of the same name.
    When was this greatest hits released?
    There is Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits in 1967 and Bob Dylans Greatest Hits Volume 2 in 1971.
    Then there is Dylan in 2007 but it is 3 discs.

  • Errors when browsing same table name in a different schema.

    I have two separate schema in a database and each has a table with the same name but different columns. I used the GUI to change the column order while looking at the data on one table. Now I can't see data in the other table and I get the error message ORA-00904: "DAY_DT": invalid identifier. I have tried to clear the persisted settings on both tables and I have disconnected and logged out SQLDeveloper and the problem still persists. How can I fix this.
    Edited by: user507794 on Apr 14, 2010 8:51 AM

    I had another user try to look at data in the table from his account on his PC and he saw the same error. So I looked a little deeper. The situation seems to be this
    user_a creates a table and a public synonym of the same name. user_a grants select on the table to user_c
    user_b creates a table using the same name as user_a's table with different columns. user_b grants select on the table to user_c
    user_c can use the GUI to see the the data in user_a's table.
    user_c cannot use the GUI to see user_b's table data. The GUI returns an error ORA-00904: "XXX": invalid identifier where XXX is a column on user_a's table.

  • How do you display data from two different data-sets on one list

    I have a data-set that is displaying properly; I would like to add another data-set to the other portion of the form. 
     The first part of the data set has Product information (Product-Name, Product_number, etc),
     The second portion of the data-set has information like (Product-campaign, Product-Sales, etc)
    The two data-sets  are mutually exclusive

    Hi xitum,
    As
    Patrick  Hurst mentioned, if the several tables didn't have any relationship with each other and you want to put all the information together to display in one report, you need to add several tablix/list in the same report and each tablix/list to display
    the data from each table.
    If the several table have a same relationship field you can use the
    lookup function to get the other maped fields display in the same tablix/list.(this function supportted on the SSRS 2008 r2 and later version).
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
