How do I transfer imported songs, to one Album?

Hello, and sorry if this is a terrible, easy question to answer.
I recently purchased my new iPod, nano to be correct, and started to import songs. When I imported from a CD, it came up as:
Track 1
Track 2
Track 3
etc.
I want to convert, al this music into a album, how do I do this?
Many thanks.

With the CD selected try using Advanced > Get Track Names. If that doesn't work you'll have to input the data by hand. Each album needs, at minimum, a common Album title and Album Artist. Right click on the CD and Get Info to set these, then use Get Info on a single track and the next/previous buttons to enter the individual track names.
For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums.

HT1473 When downloading a CD album, if it contains different artists, the album is split up into separate albums/icons. How do I get all songs into one album (just like the original CD)?

Generally, in iTunes, all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist to keep things together. For older iPods each track from the same album should have the same artist, or be marked as a compilation where appropriate. For iOS devices you may need to go to Settings > Music > Group By Album Artist > On.

How can I save individual songs to one album?

I have an album and the iTunes split it into separate songs. How do I save them back to one album?
Please help its keep happening. I installed and reinstalled I tunes several times, but no change.

This is a tagging issue and usually happens when songs on the album have different artists.
Setting a common Album Artist will usually correct this.
If it does not then make sure all the other fields for the songs on the album are the same, obviously, except for title and track number.
You can edit the tag info here:
In iTunes, Right-click on a song > Get Info > Info

How do you merge multiple songs into one album?

When I added a downloaded album to iTunes, it created one album for each track. How do I merge all of these albums/tracks into one album?

Some albums will fracture into a million pieces if you have different artist names. How the columns are sorted can effect this.
If it is a multiple artists on one album select 'Compilation' in the options section for all of the songs on the album.
NOTE: You need to have multiple items selected to set this flag!

Can't transfer imported songs to playlist album

Hi I just imported songs from a cd into iTunes, I created an playlist album to put the songs in but when I select the imported songs and drag them to the playlist album nothing is transfered.
Please help
Mafalda

What kind of playlist is it? Is it a smart playlist or an ordinary one?
If it's an odinary one what I would do is find the album in ITUNES, highlight all the songs and right click so it brings up the menu of options. Scroll down and there should be an option that says "add to playlist".
If its a smart playlist, go to the playlist right click and edit play list. choose album is and then type in the album name.

I put a cd album on to iTunes and the songs have been put onto different albums on my playlist and showing as 4 different albums on my iPad as well. How do I put the songs onto one album?

I have put an album from CD into iTunes to play on my New iPad and the album has been broken down into 4 albums. So it shows as four albums on my iPad which is annoying as Ic only want to show it as one album. What do I need to do, as I have tried to put them on one playlist but it still shows it as 4 albums?

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.

Hello all, I hope you can help. How do I transfer some songs from one account to another?

Hello, My daughter and I share an Itunes account. She's getting older now and I'd like to transfer all my music to a new account. Is it possible and how? Thanks very much

You cannot.
Authorize her computer for your account and she can use the music.

How Can I Transfer my songs and photo album back to my itunes?

My hard drive on my laptop went out and all my files were deleted. Most of my music and photos that I have left are on my Ipod What should I do to import my files back yo itunes?

there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

The transfer of purchased content to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7, look under under File>"Transfer Purchases from iPod". A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting back to your computer and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting: Managing content manually on iPod
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are comparatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.
To retrieve photos from an iPod try:
iPodPhotoCopy Windows only
CopyPodPhoto Windows only
iPod Photo Liberator Mac & Windows
