Help! I cannot find some artists on ipod that exist on itunes

I have recently synched my ipod to itunes. I see that they both have the same number of songs now. But I found that when looking under "artists" on the ipod, not all of them are there. For example, in iTunes, I see "Etta James" under artists yet if I look under artists on the iPod, she isn't there. If I search for her by album name, she is there on the iPod. So it seems that the data is there but organized improperly. How do I fix this? I have the latest updates for iTunes and iPod.
Dell Dimension 800   Windows XP  

I had the same problem... the bug seems to appear when there is 1 song with an album name and a couple without an album name listed (and obviously all the songs have the artist's name entered)
Simply entering an album name to one of the songs without one makes the All> submenu appear under Artistname> now.
For example, I renamed a albumless song to "Unknown" and I now got under Artistname>:
All>
Album1
Unknown
All the songs without an album name are now accessible under All>
Ideally all songs would have an album name...

  • HT203433 I cannot find some of my previous purchased songs on iTunes Music Store? Lost?? Strange!

    Hi,
    I have lost many musics in the same album which I had purchased on iTunes Music Store.
    I bought an album named "100 Supreme Classical Masterpieces: Rise of the Masters" about a year ago. It is a collection of classical music. It was a 100 piece of music but now I want to re-download it but it only shows me 15 tracks. I've checked it is not hidden. I've tried to search for it in iTunes Music and I found it. It is a 100 track album and it says that you've purchased this but in Purchase section only gives me 15 songs. Please help
    Any idea?
    Thank you.

    I'm having the same problem with iTunes 11. When I purchase songs for the iTunes Store, they don't appear in iTunes for me. They appear immediately on my mobile devices, but in order to get them to appear in iTunes, I have to turn off iTunes Match and then turn it back on, and even then they only appear as being available for download. Oddly enough, if I go into the iTunes Media/Downloads folder, the original downloaded files are there. It's as if they aren't getting fully processed by iTunes and indexed properly after they are downloaded. It's incredibly annoying. I could probably drag those files into iTunes to add them, but I haven't tried that yet. Hopefully Apple will resolve this issue quickly. In the meantime, check your iTunes Media/Downloads folder. The files are probably there.

  • I cannot find some of my contacts on my contacts list.

    I cannot find some of my contacts on my contacts list. When they call me or I send a text the name comes up but I can't search for them. Have checked all the options in 'groups' but still no joy.

    When they send you a text scroll up to the "contact" button and click on it. From there you should be able to edit it, & now it will correctly show up.
    If this doesn't work, try rebooting & if you still have any type of issues, just reset to factory setting. If you have all the options checked in groups but feel like there's still a better option than resetting it, try turning on your contacts in "icloud" and this may fix the issue.
    Best Regards, Brandon.

  • Songs listed under incorrect artist in Ipod (listed correctly in Itunes)

    So I'm having an issue getting songs to appear under the correct artist.
    The artist's name is 3lau.  several of his songs are listed with him as the artist.  Other list him as the Album artist.  It is all grouped correctly on Itunes.
    When i sync my ipod (nano 6th gen) I cannot find the artist "3lau"  I find all his songs under "Porter Robinson."  Porter robinson is never listed as an artist.
    I've looked through the itunes listing of artists and excluding those artists that i do not have checked music, the list doesn't match what the ipod shows.  Why?  Is there a way to force them to match?
    I'd email Apple support, but like most conceited worldwide companies you can't actually contact them for help.  So i'm asking the nice people on the community site that do apple's work for free.
    Thank you all.

    Hi TheHairyBaboon!
    I've got some information for you that may help you with this issue. You should check the "Group Compilations" setting on your iPod nano to see whether that option is on or off. More information on this setting can be found on page 16 of the iPod nano 6th generation User Guide:
    manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1551/en_US/iPod_nano_6thgen_User_Guide.pd f
    You can also find more information on compilation groupings and how to get them to behave the way you expect here:
    Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

  • HT201363 I cannot find the answers to my security questions for Itunes and cannot figure out how to reset them

    I cannot find the answers to my security questions for ITunes and cannot figure out how to reset the questions.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • The previous version of Itunes had a function where I could identify duplicate songs in my iTUNES library.  I cannot find this function in the new version of iTUNES.

    The previous version of Itunes had a function where I could identify duplicate songs in my iTUNES library.  I cannot find this function in the new version of iTUNES.
    Please advise where this is in the new version?

    The show duplicates/show exact duplicates features have been left out of iTunes 11. Rumor suggests they will be restored in the next build. In the meantime I have written two Windows scripts to make playlists of Duplicates and Exact Duplicates, either from a selection of tracks or the entire library.
    If you want to manually remove duplicate tracks use shift-delete to remove selected tracks from the library as well as the playlist. Keep one of each repeated group of files and don't send to the recycle bin unless you are sure that there are multiple files on the disc as opposed to multiple entries to the same file.
    There is also my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. This can preserve ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. which are lost in a manual clean up. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background on deduping and the script.

  • Cannot find any number on box that begins with 1057,  none of the other numbers work as a "serial number".

    cannot find any number on box that begins with 1057,  none of the other numbers work as a "serial number".

    Serial numbers are normally only applied to the disc case.  If you cannot find one on the disc case then you might be dealing with a redemption code scenario... depends where you bought the software and what the software is.
