How do I get these songs together?

I purchased the Takers and Leavers EP by Dr. Dog which contained two songs for their soon to be released new album. When the album came out, iTunes gave me the option to 'complete my album' when I went to buy it, so the two songs on the album from the EP must have been recognized on my computer. When i bought the rest of the songs from the new album i altered the album info for the two songs from the EP in order to put them in place with the new album. Despite changing the track numbers, album name, etc. the old songs do not group in numerical order with the new songs. Does anyone know how I could get them together besides buring the songs to a cd and redownloading them? Thanks for the help.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
You might try selecting all of the album tracks at once and selecting "Get Info" from the File menu and clicking the "info" tab (someone please tell me if it is different for Windows). From there you can enter the Artist, Album and other information on all of the selected tracks at once. Finally, make sure "Part of a compilation" is checked.
That SHOULD do it although I have had 1 or 2 albums still refuse to cooperate.
Good luck.

I have the current version of iTunes and when I plug my device in, the library says that I have songs on my device that are not showing up on my iPod touch. How do I get these songs on my device?

On iTunes, my library says that I have a lot of songs on my device that do not show up on my actual iPod touch. These songs disappeared from my iPod when I plugged it in, then they showed back up, but with a red square and circle, and now, after syncing and autofilling, they are gone again. How do I get these songs from my iTunes "ON MY DEVICE" library to my actual device?

It sounds like two Apple accounts were used in the purchase of songs, yours and hers. Assuming she won't give you her password, you're kinda stuck. For $129 or so you can repurchase them all.
By the way, if she has the computer and it has your account info in it, you ought to change your password.

TS1474 When I downloaded the new itunes to my new computer not all the songs transfered from my account. Most of the songs were on for over a year. How do I get these songs back?

We don"t use itunes very often, but when we do there alwys seems to be a new version to down load. We just get used to the old one. Now with the new computer we wanted to download the new version and transfer our old songs. I'm missing all the old albums I purchased last year and the year befor. How can I get these valuable products back?

You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

On my itunes there are many songs that will not play due to being purchased under a different email address and password from the one I have now how can i get these songs to play?

I have many songs in my itunes library that were purchased by me that did not convert to my new email address when I moved. How can I get them to play?

You have to use the same old Apple ID and password.

My iPhone 4 no longer plays some songs since iOS5 update, how can i get these songs playing again

So ever since I installed iOS5 onto my iPhone 4, some of my music wont play (not all, but some), what will happen is, while on shuffle, my music will play a song normally, then get to a song that it for some reason cannot play and either
a) plays another song, without changing the information about the song, then when the second song is finished playing under the first song's name, it gets to the second song's actual information and stops playing and moves to option b
b) does not play the song, does not skip the song, but has the play icon in the corner next to the battery, but it doesn't show any time going by on the progress bar of the song, but drains my battery
when i shake my iPhone after this (i.e. activates the automatic shuffle) if it happens to land on a song it can play, it skips to the next song.
It is incredibly inconvienient, and i understand that a new operating systems do have bugs, but I would like to be able to fix it as soon as possible
thanks for the help

I found a solution recently, (and well, this is the only apple product I own, so i didn't think to post it) basically what you do is follows
when your iphone is plugged in and you have itunes open, go to the phone page, then to the music page, select sync with library, but then select certain playlists. After that select none of the playlists (removing the music from your phone) and sync, then sync again with the playlists you want selected, and voila! Takes an hour or 2, but you can do it in the background of whatever else you are doing.
Cheers

HT1589 problems with itunes after updating..can't locate some of my songs..some have an exclamation point beside them how do i get these songs back in my itunes

I'm having problems with itunes after updating. I've lost all my playlists,,finally played around with it and got the songs back but some have an exclamation point beside them and can't be located. they are songs i've purchased. I'm not very computer literate so this is a major problem. I have spent hours with this. I just want all my songs to play even though I'm not happy that I have to recreate my playlists. It would be so much easier if I knew and understood how to correct this. Has anyone else had this problem and if so..is there an easy way to correct it?

Not sure how this is an ipod touch question.
Perhaps you should post in the itunes forum.

I recently purchased an album but a few of the songs do not play even though it says they are there. How do I get these songs to play?

I bought an album on the iTunes store and 3 of the songs do not work on my iPod or in my iTunes library...How can I fix this problem?

You can retrieve your songs from the iPod using something like Senuti.
It's a program that transfers music from iPod to iTunes on a Mac.
When you've got a copy of those songs on your computer, then you can restore the iPod.

I have songs appearing as movies on my iTunes - how can I get these songs to appear as songs and not movies?

Please help!
I have random songs that are appearing in my list of movies. I have tried deleting them and then redownloading them from the cloud to get them back into songs. I am successful after redownloading, BUT
...once I close out iTunes and then reenter iTunes, the songs are reappearing as movies.
PLEASE HELP! This is crazy.
Thanks!

I had exactly the same problem. Check that the tracks still appear in your iTunes folder under Music (they should if you've re-downloaded them from the cloud). Next, look in your Movies folder and the songs might appear as individual folders. Delete those folders, empty your trash and then delete the tracks from the Movies tab in iTunes.
Hope this helps.

I have songs that I have either downloaded or rippedfrom discs that iTunes says it cannot find. Why and how do I get these songs back.

I have songs that I have either downloaded or ripped from discs that i"Tunes now says they cannot find them. I have not done anything to move them or any thing else. When I go to find them I find a folder but these are empty.

im presuming that you ar ebringing up the artist folder within your music folder somewhere and it doesnt have the songs you want?
if so, the newly downloaded songs might not be in folders yet and could be at the very bottom of the music folder which has all of your artists?
alternatively, you could bring up your start menu and do a search for one of the songs, then right click open containing folder and go from there.

You made a purchase and exhausted the credit on your card before it processed. All purchases are final. Contact iTunes Store support. You need to settle up before you can purchase or download anything else.

When I copy a CD onto my macbook pro I sometimes get several songs that are "out" of the album. How do I get them all together in one album? Any help will be much appreciated!

Generally all you need do is give tracks from the same album a common Album Artist. See Grouping tracks into albums. The images need an update but the basic info. still holds.
