See my recent post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums. This is fundamentally about the logical organisation within iTunes, but if you happen to be letting iTunes "Keep iTunes Music folder organised" then it should also sort out the physical file structure as you amend your tags.

    How do I get all the songs from an album to show in the album view?  Currently, if an album lists the artist plus a guest artist, those are shown separately and appear to be two different albums on my iPod.  How do I get all the songs on that album together on my iPod?  If the album is a collaboration wtih many artists, each sond may appear as a separate album.

    I used to have this problem.
    First, you need to go back on iTunes
    you need to go to each of the songs that are having this problem
    Click the album so all the songs drop down
    Right click the songs that have this problem
    Click ' Get info '
    Click the tab that says " info '
    The box that says ' album artist ' should probably be empty (correct me if I'm wrong)
    Click it and type the artist of the entire album, NOT the songs guest artist
    as such,
    ARTIST
    JAY-Z Feat. Justin Timberlake
    ALBUM ARTIST
    JAY-Z
    These should be separate for each artist
    If you write the same album artists for each song by that artist, all the songs should be on 1 album

  • HT1660 How do i get all the songs from 1 album to appear as 1 album instead of 3 albums because they feature guest artists

    How do i get all the songs from 1 album to appear as 1 album instead of 3 albums because 2 of the songs feature guest artists in my itunes library?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • When creating a book how can I get all the photos from an album to show up in the order they were in the album?

    When creating a book in iphoto, how can I get all the photos from the album I want to use to show up in the order that they are in the album?  When I tried to use the option to add my own photos instead of having the program "flow" them, they showed up all mixed up.

    iPhoto puts them in the book in chronological order.  So to get your photos from an album into an iPhoto book in the same order you will need to use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option and set them all to the same date with a 1 minute time difference between each.

  • How do I get all the music on my IMAC in one folder. We have one IMAC and 3 sign ons. When add a song under one sign on it doesn't add to all 3 libraries.

    How do I get all the music on my IMAC in one ITUNES folder? We have one IMAC, with 3 sign ons for me and my 2 teens. When you add a song under one of the sign ons it doesn't add it to all 3 libraries. Before I updated to LION,  We had one main library with all the songs we bought, imported from cd's etc. Then any of the three of us could add it to our own IPOD instead of buying the song agin. It is one house, one IMAC. It was working fine under Leopard.

    The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
    It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

  • How do I get all the songs into one album when it's various artisits?

    I have several albums that are made up of various artists, not just one.  How do I get all the artists under the one heading of the album?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For compilations use Various Artists and also got the options tab and set Part of a compilation to Yes. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • NI Datalogger (USB-6009)​- How do I get all the channels output

    How can I get all the channels output to the file?  Is it possible to append data blocks into one data file?

    Hi,
    If you are performing a multiple channel acquisition, the easiest way to write all of your data to a file and have new data appended to that same file will be to use the "Write to LabVIEW Measurement File" Express VI.  This VI is located on the Functions>>Output Palette.
    If you put one of these on the block diagram, a dialog box will appear with options including an "append to file" option.  This Express VI also allows to configure how your channels are saved in the file and the LabVIEW Measurement File can be opened in Microsoft Excel. 
    There are some other vi's for writing data to a file on the Funcions>>All Functions>>File I/O palette.  The "Write to Spreadsheet File.vi" on this palette will work for your application as well.  There is an "append to file" input in which you will have to wire in a "true" constant to append your data.
    I hope you find this information helpful.
    Regards,
    Hal L.

  • How can I get all the stuff from my old iPad 2 to my new iPad 2? I have an apple id and have synced and backed up my old iPad 2 regularly.

    How can I get all the stuff from my old iPad 2 to my new iPad 2? I have an apple id and have synced and backed up my old iPad 2 regularly.

    Sky is right you can restore the old backup and it will not affect the old iPad
    To make sure do this:
    1. If you have the old one then just turn off wi-fi and the iPad (that's just for your peace of mind)
    2. Put new iPad on airplane mode (just for no interruptions )
    3. Connect it (while it's on, don't shut it down)
    4. Follow prompts and when it asks if you want to setup as new or restore CHOOSE: RESTORE
    5. It will make its magic (just wait for it to sync, restarts, and finishes) it might ask you to update software if it does just accept
    6. You can rename your new iPad like that you can have a fresh back up
    7. ENJOY your new iPad
    ----------OR-----------
    1. Do the above steps 1, 2, 3.
    2. On step 4 you can choose to set up as new
    3. Then you can choose what to sync on it (click on iPad on the left panel then the tabs on top you choose what you want on it (you can also do that if you restore)
    4. Follow steps 5, 6, 7.
    ****If you don't have your old iPad you can remove it from your account ****
    ****Also when they sync it to a new computer it will setup as new unless they had an old one then they will restore it their old one****
    ****if you have it connected with your MobileMe or iCloud and you have the find my _____ you can also wipe it as soon as it comes online****
    LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS
    AGAIN ENJOY YOUR NEW IPAD!!!

  • HT1848 On itunes, when synced to my pc, I show less than half of the music that is on my iphone 4. How do I get all the music onto my pc?

    I am about to scream if I don't figure this out or just decide to leave Apple and get a Galaxy phone. On itunes, when synced to my pc, I show less than half of the music that is on my iphone 4. How do I get all the music onto my pc? I have read many forums and tried many things, but apple/iTunes is not intuitive at least not on a PC. When I go to devices it won't let me select "transfer music". It's grayed out. Why is this and what can I do? I'd like to delete some of the music off of my iPhone but don't want it gone forever. Pleae help.

    Thanks Turingtest2,
    I appreciate your response. I have done all of the things mentioned, but still when I click on "devices", the "transfer music" option is still not selectable. I see it, but can't select it.  I am running Windows 7 on my PC.
    However, one thing I read makes me take pause. At one point I did erase my computer back to factory settings using the mirrored image. We backed up all information and put the important stuff back on, but I don't believe we did anything with iTunes, so it's a possibility that the music that is in my library now, may only be music I have purchased since then. But, (thinking out loud) that was a while ago and I am pretty sure I have purchased more music than what is in my iTunes library, since then.  Maybe I will approach it from that angle and see what happens.
    It just doesn't make any logical sense that syncing goes from computer to device. Ostensibly then, my iPhone would only have the music that is on my computer after syncing and that is not the case. I still have all my music on my phone. I can see the new music that's on my phone get added to my iTunes library when I connect, which would make one think that syncing occurs both ways. I don't know. It's maddening. Maybe I should just follow my husbands advice and go to an Android. LOL. Or maybe I will take my laptop and phone to the Apple store and make them figure it out. Ha.
    If you have any thoughts about this, let me know. Thanks again.

  • I restored my phone but it restored to the only back up i had which was 2 months ago. Now none of the settings i have are up to date on what i had. How do i get all the text messages from that backup up to today?

    I tried to update my phone, but it died so i had to restore it. The only back up i had was from 2 months ago. How do i get all the settings back from that huge gap of me not syncing it?

    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.

  • My old pc crashed.  How do I get all the songs from that pc to my new one?

    My old PC crash.  How do I get all the previous downloaded songs from the crashed PC to my new one?

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    Certainly you did not reinstall your OS without making sure your backup copy was current.

    CAn you please tell me how I can get all the photos and video from my iPad and iPhone that aren't in photo stream so I can get them from my iCloud onto my PC please.

    If you don't physically have the phone then there is no way for you to get the photos or videos.
    Have you been backing up your phone?  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766  if so, you can restore that backup to your new phone and get all your contents back.
