How do i combine albums

On my album view I have several pictures of the same album, each has one or more songs that are not duplicated in the others.  How do I combine these into one album?

Select all the tracks you want to combine into a single album. Do a GET INFO on the bunch. Change the Album name (the field will likely be blank if they currently have different names) by typing in the one album name you want to use. Also check the box next to Part of a Compilation making sure it is changed to YES.
OK out of there and they should combine as a single album in iTunes.

  • I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album?

    I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album? I was trying to move several albums onto a USB drive and it stated all other files exist at this location.  They are pictures taken at different times and have the same number I guess.

    In iPhoto albums may contain photos with the same file name - iPhoto handles that just fine
    If you are exporting them to move somewhere else use the sequential file name feature of export to give each file a unique name

  • A music album is listed multiple times in my library but each listing only has a few songs in it-not the full listing.  How can I combine them into one album and get rid of other duplicate listings?

    Several music albums listed in my IPhone 5 music library are listed multiple times, but each one only has a portion of the songs listed.  How can I combine them to make one album?

    First....Thank you so much for your prompt reply.  I am sorry for not getting back to you regarding your suggestion-I had computer issues that just got resolved.  Also, this is my first foray into online chat rooms so I have a lot to learn to precisely state my issue!  I did as you suggested and all the songs list the same album when I go into each song's "get info".  However, I am not sure how to edit as you suggested. When I downloaded this album originally, for some reason it broke up into several albums each with different songs from the original album.  I am trying to consolidate them back into one album in my library.  I would greatly appreciate further assistance if you can.  Also, I do not use "the cloud" to store any data and would like a good source of info on how to do this.  Thanks so much for your patience!

  • 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.

  • Downloading CD's created multiple groups of tracks.  How do I combine them into one album?

    When I downloaded many of my albums into iTunes it broak the tracks down into multiple groupings, each with an album cover as though each group was a separate album.  How do I combine the multiple "albums" into just one album?

    If you select the tracks all together in iTunes/ Songs then go to File/Get info you will be asked "Are you sure you want to edit information for multiple items?" Go ahead and you can make them into an album, putting in the artist name, etc.

  • HT204266 If I have a play list of various artists and on this list I have two tracks from the same album how can I combine those two tracks to play as one if I am using the shuffle feature?

    An example would be Jackson Browne's "The Load Out" &" Stay".They should play one after the other but in a play
    list on shuffle setting they don't. How do I combine two songs so they play as one in a shuffled playlist

    When I import my music files to iTunes will I be creating new files for every file I import? If the answer is YES; where are those files going to be stored and how much space will they use?
    To begin with you can't manage FLAC in iTunes. The use of iTunes is at this moment limited to WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, AAC and MP3. But that's not a problem because if I understand you correctly you want to organize the MP3-files in iTunes.
    When you import music files you can let iTunes copy all files and put it in an iTunes-media-Folder. You can make the choice in preferences-->tab advanced.
    If you deselect the second blue checkbox (sorry, in Dutch) iTunes won't copy files as you import the files in your library. It will use the files from the place they are on the disk now. So you have a choice. But if you want iTunes to copy them, they will be placed in a folder called iTunesMedia. This is how it placed on your disk.
    All files will be put in one music folder well ordered by artist and albums. If you want to make a backup of all your music you just have to copy the iTunes folder to another disk. You can backup all music at once. How much space they will use depends on the bitrate of the MP3 and whether you add more tagging to it. You can have iTunes add album artwork. That means adding gif or jpg files to your library. Are you using bitrate 320 for your MP3?
    If you tell me I can give you estimates on the disk-space you will need.

  • In the itunes library, a single album appears to be split into two separate parts, how do i combine them?

    my itunes library has several albums that are split into two parts. one contains half of the album's songs and the other the other half. how do i combine these so the album only appears once in it's entirety?

    Generally setting a common Album Artist will fix things.

  • How do you combine artists and albums in itunes?

    I just recently bought an iPod classic and am now using iTunes to edit my prolific library of music so that I can put it on my iPod.  I have much editing to do of songs, artists, albums, etc.  I am finding that some of my songs are broken up from the album they should be on, and yet the name of the album is the same and it still appears separate from the main album.  I also have some artists who are broken up as well, even though they have the same name.  How can I combine artists, albums, etc into one file?  I want all the songs from an album to be under one album and all albums to be under one artist, not two with the same name.  This was very easy to do in Windows Media Player but can't figure out how to combine songs to one album or combine artists to show up once under one file.  HELP!

    If you are on a PC and want to sync photos to the iPhone this is how you do it. First, create a folder and place the pictures that you want on the iPhone in that folder. You can copy them, or move them into that folder, whichever. Once you connect the iPhone to iTunes, from the Summary screen, click on the tab for photos. In that section, tell iTunes what folder you want to sync to the phone. It is better to make the folder you want to sync in "My Pictures" that is located in the "My Documents" folder. iTunes automatically looks at the "My Pictures" folder and can sync all photos, or you can choose particular folders. I have a folder called iPhone pictures that is in the My Pictures folder, and I tell iTunes to sync just that particular folder.
    Hope that helps you.

  • How do you combine 2 iPhoto picture albums?

    How do you combine 2 photo albums?
    Can you add pictures to a book once you've already started it?

    What i did to combine an ablum was to change the album information so it is exactly the same as the one you want to merge it with. i did this and it worked. it has to be exactly the same, word for word. to edit the album information, right-click on the album and click "get info". a Box will appear. click on the 2nd tab to edit info. you can even change the album cover!
    *note: this hasn't been tested for music downloaded from the iTunes Store.
    Hope This Helps!

  • How do I combine two versions of the same album into 1

    I have songs from the same album on 2 albums in my library. How do I combine them?

    Select all the songs from the album, choose File--> Get Info, then under the Album area, type in the appropriate album title.  They should all appear under one album at that point.

  • Imported cd generates 3 identical icons in album  view. First icon has 10 songs. Second icon has 1 song, and third icon has 1 song,  How do I combine the three identical icons in album view.

    When I import a cd, itunes generates three album icons.  The first icon, in album view, has a picture of the cd and 10 of the 12 songs on the cd.  The second album icon has no picture of the cd, but a picture of two eighth notes tied together, and has one of the songs from the cd on it.  Same thing with the third album icon.  No pic of cd, but the two notes, (musical notation) and it also has only one song from the cd on it. (different from icon 2.)
    I would like to know how I can combine all three icons into one icon.

    Same thing happens to me. It happens also when I add to library from HD. I've already checked all info and couldn't find anything different that could justify this behavior. The funny thing is that sometimes (sometimes, only) I just delete the tunes (removing from iTunes AND moving files to trash), add the files again and everythig is ok.
    I've noticed, also, that using TuneUp Media may, sometimes, solve this issue. I just drag the albuns to TuneUp Clean area and issue solved...
    I just can't understand why this is happening...
    I also use iMac (late 2009) with Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

  • How do I combine a purchased bonus track album and the same, regular album on my iPhone?

    I recently purchashed the several songs from the "bonus track version" of Cat Power's new album, and then used "complete my album" in iTunes to purchase the rest of the album.  However, when I view the album on my iphone, two versions appear of the same album: (1) the bonus track version with some songs and (2) the rest of the purchased songs as the regular album.  How can I combine these two so I can just listen to the album straight through??

    I had the exact same problem even after I ensured all of the album "Info" data were identical.  iTunes and my iPod Classic treated all songs as ONE album.  But my iPhone and iPad treated the songs as TWO albums.
    To fix, I had to completely change the album name and sync my iPhone/iPad.  For example, I changed the album name as follows:
         "Battle Born (Deluxe Edition)" > "Battle Born". 
    Note that when I changed the album name in iTunes like this:  
         "Battle Born (Deluxe Edition)" > "Battle Born" >  "Battle Born (Deluxe Edition)"
    ... and then sync'd, there was no change on my iPhone/iPad.
    I think the key is changing the name so that it differs from what the iPhone/iPad has.  Maybe the indexes aren't rebuilt?  Who knows.
    If you want to revert back to the original album name, you must change the name in iTunes and sync again.
    Hope this works for you.
