How do I select multiple songs and uncheck them from compilations (itunes 10.5.2)

So I found to my annoinance that itunes has recently moved much of my music to compilations that shouldn't be there. I tried searching online for how to turn compilations off or select multiple songs and uncheck them from compilations all at once and although I found both answers, they must have only worked for older versions of itunes. I no longer can find the option to turn off compilations under preferences and when I try to select multiple songs at a time then press "Get Info" the "part of a compilation" checkmark is not there. It is only there when one song is highlighted. This is very frustrated. In fact I would venture to say I've never been so angry with Apple. There are 609 songs "stuck" in my freaking compilations! I don't have time nor should I have to take the time to go through every single song right clicking it, pressing "Get info", unchecking "part of compilation" then clicking ok. WAY TOO MUCH TIME! If anyone has any good news on a faster way to do this I'd be VERY THANKFUL!

This was a life saver! I even started to manually tick the box as well!

  • How do I process multiple files and turn them from raw to jpeg

    How do I process multiple files and turn them from raw to jpeg. Ive tried and it seems to go through the files but doesnt seem to process them or store them in the selected folder

    Yes that was the first thing I did. Then I used the process multiple files and selected a new folder to put them in and selected use open files and selected to turn them into jpeg. The images flash on the screen like they are being processed, but the folder never appears in library. Is it possible because there are a couple 16 bit files open that this corrupts the task. Do I need to create the folder first. Will elements not create the folder on its own.
    Thanks Vince

  • How do i select multiple steps and move them?

    Hi everyone! I'm trying to select multiple steps and move them all into a branch of a condition outcome. Here's the thing, I have almost completed my workflow with several steps for dynamic approval, however, i need to put a condition at the very start of the workflow and it does not seem that there is an easy way to move all of the steps into one branch. I find the workflow explorer really clumsy in this respect. Is it easier to just drag one outcome of the condition, say to the very end of the workflow? It does not seem to work for me though...hmmm...
    Thanks and generous points will be awarded!

    Funtion Module 'SWD_GET_WORKFLOW_DEFINITION ' gives the structure of the Workflow definition. The informations are stored in following table.
    1. SWDSTEXT -> Table which gives WF Steps and descriptions
    2. SWDSBINDEF --> Binding information is stored in this table
    3. SWDSMNODES -> All nodes information is stored in this table
    4. SWDSMLINES -> Workflow lines are stored in this table.
    <b>SWDSMLINES</b> and <b>SWDSMNODES</b> are important tables for current requirement. By changing <b>SWDSMLINES</b> the bulk copy and paste can be incorporated. But this is <b>very very risky</b>, better to have a backup of workflow definition before doiing anything.
    Any enthuiasts to write code for a unitlity to move multiple steps ?

  • How do I select multiple pictures and compact them so there is no space between them?

    I know this should be easy, but I am spending a ton of time trying to move 45 pictures in my video closer together...one by one. Is there a way to grab, let's say 20 pictures, and combine or compact them together so there is no space between them? I'm tired of doing it one by one and trying to get it right. Thanks -

    Are these connected clips? Probably not at this stage.
    If they were connected, and you wanted to shorten each one, the way to do that is to make the connected clips a secondary storyline and then shorten them. The magnetic storyline will pull them up next to each other.

  • How Do I select Multiple songs to Use with Slideshow?

    I am running Lightroom 4 on an iMac with OS - Lion. Love it!
    I am trying to create a slideshow with music in the background but I cannot seem to select more than 1 song. How can I select multiple songs?
    Thanks
    Adrian

    The slide show feature in Lightroom isn't really very flexible or feature packed.  I suspect the design was to provide professional photographers a quick way to show proofs to clients.  You will have to use other software for what you intend to accomplish.  I'm going to be creating a slide show with about 500 images soon.  My intention is to create the slide show with Lightroom and export as video.  Then I will use Premiere Elements and import the video and lay down the music track.  There are easier ways to do it, I know.  But I don't do this kind of thing very often and don't plan to purchase more software that would make it easier.

  • I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?

    I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?  I have authorized my computer but none of them are in my music now.

    You buy one and only one download.
    It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    Certainly you did not update your ipod without making sure that you had transferred anything purchased on the ipod to your computer and included it in your regular backup copy of your computer.

    Please clarify your "Elements 12". Is that as in Photoshop Elements 12 (photo editor) or Premiere Elements 12 (video editor). And, on what computer operating system is the program running?
    Your question is pointing to Photoshop Elements 12 and that you have posted in the wrong forum. If this is a Photoshop Elements 12 question as I believe it is, please post your thread in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum using the following link provided for your convenience
    https://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop_elements
    The alternative is to wait for a moderator to see your thread here and move it from here to the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum..
    We will be watching for a confirmation on what program you are using.

  • How do I print multiple PDFs AND fit them to my paper size?

    Hi,
    I'm using a 24 inch wide plotter with roll paper. I want to be able to print multiple PDFs  AND fit them to a specified paper size. I can print one page and fit it to the paper, but I can't do it with multiple PDFs.
    For example, I have two PDFs that are only 8x8 inches. I want to print them side by side on a 24 inch x 12 inch page size and fit them to size and then FIT them to the page size so the end result will be 2 PDFs printing at 12 x 12 side by side.
    I can't seem to be able to do this. I'm sure I was able to do this using earlier versions. As it is, I have to print one at a time and waste half of my roll paper size.
    Any help?
    Adobe Acrobat Pro, Windows 7 Proffesional, HP Designjet 111 roll fed plotter.
    Thanks

  • I need to be able to select multiple emails and foward them in one email

    I have to foward emails; however, only current way is one at a time.  I need to be able to select <n> emails, and then forward them to one or more people- but they want only one email with the other emails appearing in email as attached documents that they open by selecting one of the emails sent to them- need arisen as need to be reimbursed for business trip and they do not want multiple emails- only one email.  I only havevan iPad and could do this crummy Outlook but can figure out how to do on iPad...

    Well, just remember, this is only the second generation iPad and tablets are not really a true replacement for a fully functioning computer.  As they evolve over time, more and more functionality will be built in.........

  • How can I select multiple songs in iTunes without having to hold the Command key while clicking each individual song

    Trying to drag a block of songs from iTunes into TuneUp and I have about 1800 songs to bring in.  TuneUp maxes out at 1000 songs per batch, so I can't use Select All, but I also don't want to Command + Click 800 times to get all of those songs selected. 
    Thanks in advance. 

    Answered my own question.  Select song at the beginning of the list.  Hold down the shift key.  Go to the last song you want in your list.  Click that song.  All songs in between will be highlighted.  Such and idiot.

  • Selecting multiple songs for Playlist or deletion...

    this one's probably pretty easy, but how do you select multiple songs in the Music Library to be able to use in a new Playlist or to delete...I can't seem to find the right keystrokes for this....

    Command-click to select multiple items or click the first one and Shift-click the last one if the items are consecutive.
    Then press Delete to delete them or choose 'New Playlist from Selection' in the File menu (Shift-Command-N) to create a playlist of the selection.
    You can find most shortcuts in the 'Keyboard Shortcuts' of the' Help' menu.
    Hope this helps.

  • Itunes match  how do you to select multiple songs or do you click each one

    In ITunes match  how do you to select multiple songs to download to pc or do you have to click each one.

    First make sure you have the current version of iTunes, which is actually 10.5.1.  I had to manually download it from apples website, for some reason, it wouldnt auto-update.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Once that is complete, go to the iTunes store. In the Quick Links secion to the right, you should see iTunes Match. This will prompt you to activate your subscription to iTunes match.  After that it should ask you to add your computer and once youve done that, it should begin the process of scanning your library and adding it to the cloud
    Alternatively, once you activate your subscription, you can also go to the Store dropdown menu in iTunes and select Turn On iTunes Match.
