@ GARTH
I think that's I've (I have) rather than live.
@ p-rock
See my previous post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topics One album, too many covers and One artist, many names.
Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist may be relevant to your +certain "groups" or albums will not transfer unless placed in a specific playlist"+ issue. If not please provide more information on your symptoms.
It's also helpful to know if you are syncing your iPod to all/selected playlists or manually managing the content.

  • Cant edit songs on my iPhone because the music is part of a playlist?

    I have a lot of music on my iTunes, so I induvidually selected the music I wanted and put it in a playlist in my iTunes.  I transfered it to my iPhone and now I cant edit anything from it because its part of a playlist.  When i open my iphone in itunes and go to the music, all of the checkmarks are grey and it wont allow me to edit or delete any of the songs or the music info.  This is extremelly frusturating because it was working fine two days ago, and I could edit everything even know it was in a playlist.  Yesterday my iTunes deleted every song on my iPhone, so when i re-synced it it wouldnt allow me to edit anything.   I have been looking for a solution for hours and have found none.  Can someone please help me on this?  Is there a way I can highlight just the songs in my desired playlist, but in my whole music library? 

    The playlist metadata may not have been transfered correctly and you may have to recreate the lists.  Also, music ripped from your CDs may now appear as if from a different account or DRM protected and won't sync.  You may have to re-rip them to your new iTunes library.

  • Cant edit song info

    Im having trouble editing my song info. A problem i haven't had in the past. I just got a new computer today, but all of my media is on my external hard drive. On my old pc, i had no troubles editing song info off of these files. and now it seems to not be working. Every time i hit "get info" everything comes up grayed out. Ive checked the properties on the hard drive and its listed as "read only" when i uncheck it it applies all the attributes and turns the read only off. But for some reason it doesn't keep. I cant get read only to stay off. So unfortunately i am unable to edit any of my song info. Has anyone out there had this problem? If so any suggestions?
    Compaq   Other OS   God damnit i hate vista...

    Problem Solved:
    #1) after you install iTunes and reboot as it tells you to you must start up the program then log out of the program
    #2) reboot 1 more time (this is redundant but you must do it to get your equalizer working and the ability to edit your song information).
    Everything is working correctly now.

  • No EQ + Cant Edit Song Info...Please Help

  • Updated to ios5 cant edit song info via itunes anymore

    Here's what's going on. I updated my OS on iPod Touch and when I did, all my content on it got deleted sans photos and contact info. Not too big of a deal but now when I drag songs from my music folder in windows and edit the song info in iTunes (i.e. changing Sade to Everything But The Girl) it does so in iTunes but the info isn't changed on my iPod. Any info would help and keep my hair in. Email [email protected]

  • Syncing edited songs without creating duplicate files ... ideas?

    I'm thrilled you can now move songs via iTunes to different computers. My issue is that I want to move songs when I change info for a song (ie. star rating, comment, etc.). If the song already exist on the other computer moving the song via iTunes creates a duplicate on the receiving computer. Ideas?

    While also time consuming, the Consolidate command will do it and is automatic.
    What you would do is go into your iTunes preferences and change the iTunes Music folder location. Pick something like a spare external drive or if you have enough room on your internal to duplicate your whole library, another spot there.
    Now invoke the consolidate command. What this command does is copies any files not in the currently identified iTunes Music folder location into that location and updates the database so the song is now accessed from that location. Since you just change the location to somewhere else, ALL of your library is outside that location and will be copied into it.
    So here is the part that helps you. All those 19 gigs of orphaned files are left behind. If the file is not used by iTunes it is not copied. So the new iTunes Music folder location ends up being a clean folder with only those files actively used by iTunes.
    As that point you can either continue to use this new location and delete the old location from your computer. Or if you want everything back in the same place, clear out the old folder then change the location back to that folder and consolidate everything back. Again, will take a fair bit of time for many many gigs, but you can start it and go to bed, go to lunch, work, go watch a show as it is done automatically.
    Cheers,

  • HELP cant get songs on the ipod

    itunes says that the ipod has been updated but when i go to use it it flashes green/orange and doesnt make any noise.
      Windows XP Pro  
      Windows XP Pro  

    That sounds about right.
    Updating the software removes all songs.
    Flashing O/G means, among other things, that there are no songs on the iPS to be played.
    Not making noise when nothing is there would be a good thing.

  • Cant Transfer songs HELP!!!!

    i cant transfer song to my ipod mini, it says it can not read or written in the disc. In the itunes there exist a small lock just beside the bar showing the capacity left in the ipod.
    HELP!! what should i do??

    "i cant transfer song to my ipod mini, it says it can not read or written in the disc"
    See if this helps: "-36 or "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod or "Firmware update failure" error when updating or restoring iPod
    "In the itunes there exist a small lock just beside the bar showing the capacity left in the ipod."
    A lock symbol at the bottom of the screen and grey text when you look at the content and simply shows that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists". . If you want to access your iPod directly, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to "Manually manage songs and Playlists" in the iPod preferences. For more detail see this tutorial: Managing Your Songs Manually
    One thing to be aware of with manually updating is that the iPod also has to be manually ejected before the "Do Not Disconnect" message will go away. Safely disconnect iPod
    For info: iPod 101
    The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
    1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
    2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
    3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.

  • My computer will not let me click the box in iTunes where it says "sync only checked music and videos." So i cant unsync songs that i don't want on my iPod but still want in my iTunes. HELP?!

    My computer will not let me click the box in iTunes where it says "sync only checked music and videos." So i cant unsync songs that i don't want on my iPod but still want in my iTunes. HELP?!

    These are your options:
    1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
              Advantages: Always works, if library damage is causing the problem and the backup is intact.
              Disadvantages: Impossible if you don't have a backup. All changes made since the backup are lost.
    2. Repair or rebuild the library. Be sure to back it up first.
              Advantages: May solve the problem with no loss of data.
              Disadvantages: May fail. May take a long time if the library is large.
    3. Scavenge the library with a third-party application called "iPhoto Library Manager," which you can find in a web search. From the application's menu bar (not the iPhoto menu bar), select Library ▹ Rebuild.
              Advantages: All images should be preserved.
              Disadvantages: All books, calendars, and slideshows will be lost.

  • Created a flow chart and now cant' edit

    I created this flow chart and now it just acts like a regular object and I cant edit it anymore.

    Welcome to the forum!
    Was the chart copied from some other application? Were all the elements grouped (under the Arrange menu, is Group greyed out)? Is it perhaps locked (are the control handles Xs instead of boxes)?
