Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.
For compilations that aren't, select all tracks, Get Info, and on the option tab set Part of a Compilation to No. If it already says No tick the box alongside, then click OK.
For deeper problems see Grouping tracks into albums.

i bought the album Attack! Attack! by Attack Attack and most of the songs will only play halfway then they will just go silent i have tried contacting apple about this but have found no real topic on their site to do with this problem and there seems to be no email address for support that i can find can an of you help me?

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If you don't see them straight away it may help to close and restart iTunes.
While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

I have applied the icloud on my sisters id accidently. How can I no w remove this information and set up my own Icloud on another computer with out loosing either of our information from the phone.

Please read before going through with this procedure.
If you really want your contact back and you did not do another iCloud backap since you deleted some of your contacts, you can do a hard reboot on both devices with iClouded contacts by holding down the home and lock buttons on each of them for 10 seconds ignoring the slide to turn off thing. Make sure you have iCloud contact services off before doing so. You can then go through the whole set up process until you get up to the backup part. You then press to restore from an iCloud backup (make sure you choose the right backup for the right phone). If you didn't make an iCloud backup before the contact incident, you will have to use your two-month-old iTunes backups. Each phone should have their contacts the way they were from your last backup. You then go into Settings>iCloud>and turn off contacts. You then can choose if you want to keep your current contacts or not. Turn this off on both phones just incase you add another iCloud device to the mix later on. Now your contact lists are no longer linked (Caution: side effect may include lack of edit button). You may now add and delete contacts as you please without it happening on your other phone.
Thank you for choosing Apple.

I changed my email address and now cannot play items purchased with previous email. This only became a problem after I got a new computer. The original email address no longer even exists. How can I access these hundreds of items?

I changed my email address a few years ago. I did not have any problems after this change until I got a new computer. Now I cannot play items that were purchased under the previous email. I entered the password that I used and it doesn't recognize it. I tried "forgot your password" in every combination possible. I never received any emails at the old email address. Now the old email address no longer even exists. How can I access these hundreds of items?

The old email address may well still be valid as your iTunes AppleID, however if you have no other email associated with that ID you clearly won't get any automated emails to it.
I still use an old defunct email for my iTunes AppleID.

You may want to try to manage the old ID here:

Use the original email address and password.

At the present time, the only way to clear that is to restore the phone as new. Perhaps a future iOS update will give us the option to clear that cache.

The old iTunes libraries do not restore any playlists or song counts.
They should you if you do the roll back properly... Opening files from the Previous iTunes Libraries folder in Windows Explorer simply opens the current library. If you don't see the .itl file extension then don't give your copied and renamed file the extention or iTunes will create an empty library rather than using the renamed file.
If you had a complete pre-problem backup of your library you could restore that. On the assumption that isn't possible I have a script called ExportImport that could in principle be adjusted to save the relevant data from a backup of the library database and then reimport that data into the current library. See this thread for details.

Hi. I have (stupidly) managed to create two iCloud accounts.... How can I merge these?

Hi guys.. Can anyone help me merge these two accounts or take sensible steps to get rid of one account.. So that I can see all my music from one account?

You cannot merge Appleaccounts. Delete the one you do not wish to use from the device.

How can I merge or flatten this set of objects?

I have this image, which came in the form of a jpeg or similar pixelated format, and I opened it in AI CS5 and did a live trace to vectorize it. Unsurprisingly, it came out with a billion points. I had to add some "shading"--the black facets of the diamond--so I direct selected the facets I needed and then filled them black. Since then I've been trying to make the whole damn thing one shape so that I can put a stroke around only the outside of the diamond, but haven't been able to figure out how to do it. Unfortunately, this stupid OFFICIAL Adobe Illustrator forum won't let you actually upload, you know, an Adobe Illustrator file, so here's a jpeg that will do nothing to help you understand the underlying issues. While I definitely started out with a diamond that was mostly white, with the outline in black, it is acting as if there is a black outline base layer with some white layered on top. I also don't know how that happened. I understand that I could use the pen tool and redraw this easily--that's not the point. I'm sure that I will come across similar problems in the future, and likely with shapes that are way more complex than this is (and so very difficult to redraw, and too time-consuming) so I'd like to know how to address this issue from here. What does a guy have to do? Thanks,
Tomas

Thanks Kurt, here's a link to the ai file. You'll see how much crap is going on and I have no idea why or how to simplify it. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45811050/a%20stupid%20diamond.ai
Scott, I grouped it all and then an option for "stroke" appeared in the appearance panel on the right (I'm using "like Photoshop"), but there's no contents. When I ungroup "contents" shows up in the appearance panel. Can't get that to work. Also, as you'll see, when you add stroke to this diamond lots of "spikes" appear in random places. Seems to be because of the huge amount of points.

I put an app onto my phone via my comp when there wasn't space on my phone originally to download it directly. Now however, everytime I visit the app store on my phone it tries to download the same app that's already there. How can I stop it doing this?

My phone didn't have space on it when I originally tried downloading a large app (Infinity Blade), so I downloaded the app on my computer to save time and removed apps from my phone to make space for it.
I then connected my phone to my computer and transferred the app across onto my phone and it works fine.
However, everytime I visit the App Store on my phone it starts downloading this same app until it tells me there isn't enough space for it at which point the app goes back to its normal already downloaded self and I can carry on playing the same game.
How can I stop it from trying to re-download everytime I visit the app store?

If it's still trying to download the app to your phone, then it thinks the app is not on the device.
A reset or restart would be a good starting point to clear up the attempts to redownload the app.

I synced to a different computer and it erased the music of my iPod how do I get it back?

I recently purchased a new iPod and I was transfering to songs from my old iPod touch to my computer to my new one. When I synced my old one it erased all of my songs. I went on ITunes to see if I could redownload them and it said that the music had already been purchased but it wasn't on my old iPod or new one. If you could please let me know how I could fix that it would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Faith Stinson

OK, so on your new computer, are you logged on with the same iTunes logon that you had on the old computer? If so, then you can go into the iTunes Store on that computer, and re-select each of the songs or albums you had previously purchased (one at at time). Be sure to select the exact same song or album (for instance, if a particular song is available on two different albums, or by itself, be sure that you select the same place you originally selected that song from). Then select the "Buy" button. It will ask for your AppleID password - key it in and press Enter.
iTunes should come back to you and say "You have already purchased this song. Do you want to download it again for free?" Say yes, and it will download your previously purchased song to your new iTunes Library. Once it is downloaded, sync your iPod, and you should be all set!
Note: if it says are you sure you want to purchase it - then you have either selected the wrong "version" of the song/album or have not signed on with the AppleID originally used to purchase that song/album.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,

My previous ipod touch quit working and I lost all the songs I had purchased on it. How can I recover these songs if I can't sync the iPod?

I had a 1st Gen iPod Touch that quit working on me. I had 30-40 songs on it that I had purchased from the iTunes App that I didn't sync back to my computer. How do I recover those lost songs so I can put them on my new iPod?

You buy one and only one download. It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

When I change the row heights in a spreadsheet, then save, close, and open it, the row heights are back to default. How can I prevent this?

One of our reports has lots of text in some rows. I import the data, adjust the row width and ask the text to wrap, which automatically sets the row height appropriately. When I save, close, and open that spreadsheet, the width is still the same and Wrap is still selected, but the rows are only one line high, which means that the report is unreadable and a serious pain to make readable.
I can save it as a PDF, but I'd rather be able to use the Numbers format or Excel and be confident that my recipients can read it.

Hi k,
I'm unable to reproduce the described behaviour.
The document containing the table below has a combination of row heights set manually using teh stepper in the Table Inspector (both 0.76" labeled rows), set manually by dragging the row boundary between row reference tabs (labeled 1/13"), and set automatically by Numbers to fit the content of the remaining cells.
Content in the rows with names beginning E, F, G or H wraps automatically to form two rows in the cell. The rest are forced into two lines using a carriage return character.
All maiintained their row heights through two Saves and reopenings.
Regards,
Barry
