HT1399 I've copied more than one CD into iTunes that had various artists; the result is the CD is not recognized as one item, but only as separate songs by multiple artists. Is there a way to combine those separate songs back into the original "album" in

My question is in the subject line. Don't know why I have to put info here? Isn't this seen as an answer?

From Song View, select all of the tracks, then hit Ctrl-I (Get Info).  On the "Options" tab, change "Part of a compilation" to "Yes".  Click "OK" to save.
For individual tracks, there is also a compilation checkbox at the bottom right of the Get Info "Info" tab.

  • HT1451 I ripped a 2-cd album to iTunes on my PC.  It downloaded as 5 separate albums.  Is there a way to combine those back into one album?

    I ripped a 2-CD album to iTunes on my PC.  It downloaded as 5 separate albums.  Is there a way to combine those back into the original one album?

    Yes there is tho it may get pretty redundant if you have many 2-CD albums as i had once. Using the "control" key select all five albums. Right click the selected albums and select "Get Info". If this is your first time it may ask you if you are sure you want to edit multiple albums. Click "Yes". Fill in / affirm the correctness of the grid in fron of you. Check all of the boxes BUT THE TRACK #  BOXES AND ARTWORK . This will tell iTunes that all of the albums are one and the same. click "ok". One album with the correct title should appear. Select all the tracks that were on the second disk and again right click and select get info. enter into the disk # space "2" of "2". If your version of iTunes is up-to-date this will make it a 2 disk album. If you would like you get select "Get Info" again just to make sure all is good.
    Hope this helps.

  • Is there an easy way to import those misfortunate photos back into iphoto

    I moved my iphoto library to my external drive so that both my laptop and imac can use the synced photo library.
    ... but now my imac iphoto says I can not open my iphoto library, because is from a newer version of iphoto. And the application then closes.
    I figured out my newer laptop has a newer version of iphoto on it.
    Imac iphoto version is 6.0.6
    Laptop iphoto version s 7.1.5
    I Downloaded iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This created a new library but says a lot of my pictures are lost. I can search and find them on my external drive and reimport, but there are a lot of them! Any suggestions?
    I'd rather use the 6.0.6 on my imac than pay for an upgrade.
    I just won't use my laptop's iphoto.
    BUT, how can I get my 6.0.6 working again with all of my pictures in tact? Or is there an easy way to import those misfortunate photos back into iphoto painlessly?
    Any other solutions??
    Will Snow Leopard have the newest iPhoto included?
    Thank you!

    If you want to revert to iPhoto 6 then you have two choices:
    1. Restore from your back up
    or
    2. Create a new v6 Library and start over.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'.
    Go into the Old iPhoto Library (Right Click on the Library Icon and choose ‘Show Package Contents) and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the old iPhoto Library.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
    “Snow Leopard” is an OS Upgrade. While we have no idea what will be included with it, on past experience, no, it will not include a new version of iPhoto.

    Drag the folders to the external drive, and if prompted, click Authenticate. You'll probably be asked for an administrator password.

  • Since installing iOS 8.1.2 on my iPad, the facebook app stopped working.  Is there a way to fix it or go back to the previous iOS?

    Since installing iOS 8.1.2 on my iPad, the facebook app stopped working.  Is there a way to fix it or go back to the previous iOS?

    Sorry, no. If Facebook isn't compatible with the current iOS it's on Facebook to make its app compatible.
    Have you tried to access facebook via safari? I personally abandoned the app years ago due to it being very buggy. I access it via safari with no issues

  • I recently swapped providers but didn't think about recording my saved voice messages before doing so.  Is there any way to get those personal treasures back?

    Due to family troubles I dropped out of a family plan and picked up with another provider.  I had voices messages of my girls when they were very young on my answering machine that I had saved for years; now I'm unable to access them.  Is there a way to get those back?  Thank you!

    Probably NOT gone yet...
    If you hurry you might be  able to get them. They are only saved for so long...
    I was told by verizon:
    "You can access your old voicemails by calling 812-320-2957, and just use your voicemail password to access the messages." for a short period of time (mine was 2 weeks, but it may depend on where your bill falls etc...)  This should be the usual password you use to call voicemail.
    You will have to use an app to record it or like do it like me.  I'm simply going to put it on speakerphone and record it with my camcorder and another phone...

  • Is there a way to get my book marks back into Safari from a TM backup?

    Hello fellow Mac users. Is there a way to "restore" my wife's book marks from an earlier TM backup in safari?
    My wife deleted a bunch of files on her MBP. I went back to an earlier days TM backup and restored things in her documents folder etc but when she went into Safari all of her book marks are gone. Is there a way to get them back from one of the TM back ups? There was also another user that was deleted. Can that be restored?
    Thanks Very Much!

    To get the Safari bookmarks back, you need to locate the 'booksmarks.plist' file which should be located in the username/library/safari folder and replace the same file in the same folder for the user you want the bookmarks for.
    As far as restoring a previous user, I'm not sure. It might be easier to just make a new one. You should still be able to get the files from the previous user from your Time Machine backup if that's what you intended. If you could restore a user, it would have to be by using Migration Assistant, although I couldn't say as to whether that would work.

  • Is there a way to combine 2 log in page into one on my macbook

    I had 2 login pages 1 for home use and 1 for work use but now I wanna combine them so I can access all files without log into 2 different accounts on the home page....so was wondering if there is a way to sync both account instead of deleting 1 bc I still wanna be able to access all the files .......please help

    Unfortunately cutting and pasting doesn't work.  The margins are so different for each document as the first document is a standard report with the text centered on the page while the second document is in the form of a letter that is off center toward the right side of the page.  Cutting and pasting either one into the other (I've tried both ways) alters both documents in a way that causes the images, quotes, etc that are interspersed throughout each of them to show up in the wrong place (and they cannot be moved to the correct location due to the differences in margin. 
    They really need to simply be placed end to end rather than trying to combine them into one.  This is apparently a simple thing with Pages on the Mac itself but it does not appear to be as simple with the iPad app.  Thanks anyway for your help.

  • Accidentally unchecking all my iTunes is there any way to get it to go back to the selected songs before?

    Hey guys
    I have an 32g iPhone 4S, in my iTunes library I have about 5000 songs and have accidentally unchecked them all. Is there anyway for my iTunes to go back to songs I had previously selected?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer files/docs/pics/music/etc.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy (not good), then you can transfer from an ipod:  File>Transfer Purcahses
    You buy one and only one download.  it is your responsibility to move copy/backup your purchases.

  • Copy more than one clip at a time from iPhoto to iMovie?? Please help!

    Is it possible to copy more than one clip at a time from iPhoto to iMovie? I can't find a way to select/copy more than one.

    OK you can leave them in iPhoto and access them from the iMovie Event for iPhoto.
    If you prefer to move them to a regular iMovie Event, you can do the following.
    1) right-click on one of the iPhoto clips and select "Reveal in Finder". This will open a finder window showing the clips in the iPhoto Library.
    2) In a different Finder window, create a folder to hold your event in iMovie. If you are using an internal drive, create a folder using your desired Event Name under the Movies/iMovie Events Folder.
    Note: If you are using an external drive, create a Folder called iMovie Events at the top level of the external drive. Then create the (Event Name) folder under this. The external drive must be formatted as MacOS Extended (journaled) for this to work.
    3) Select all the clips in the iPhoto finder window that are part of this event and Move them to the Movies/iMovie Event/(Event Name) folder.
    4) After you have done this for all the Events, open iMovie and let it generate thumbnails. This may take a while.

  • My mac will not copy more than one file at a time and gets locked up if the file is too large, my mac will not copy more than one file at a time and gets locked up if the file is too large

    So now that you have repeated the same thing three times that doesn't make things any clearer at all.
    You are copying files from where to where?
    How are you attempting to copy files, software or click and drag?
    Any other detail would be helpful.

  • Copy more than one A/R Invoce to an A/R Credit Memo

    On this case I´d like to copy more than one AR Invoice to (just) an AR Credit Memo and that feature does not exist on SAPBO.
    Create a AR Credit Memo without link from AR Invoice is not a correct way. Because the items costs will be the current one and it should be the value from the AR Invoice.

    HI Stefany.........
    Welcome to SAP Business One Forum......
    If your AR Invoices are Non Excisable then multiple Ar Invoices would have been coiped to single Credit Note.......
    But if it is excisable then you have to create single Credite Memo against single AR Invoice......

  • I imported photos from an old iPhoto (2001) to photo library and can now see them as thumbnails but not when I click on them. The screen is black cannot see or print either. Is there any way to salvage those old photos? I now use iLife09. OS 10.6

    I imported photos from an old iPhoto (2001) to photo library and can now see them only as thumbnails but not when I click on them. The screen is black cannot see or print either. Is there any way to salvage those old photos? I now use iLife09. OS 10.6

    Did you import the old iPhoto library into the new one? That's not what you want to do because you will import all of the original, modified and thumbnail files as if they were original files. Lots of duplicates and useless small photos.
    Do you have a backup copy of the library that you imported into to?  If you do then bring it in and then use  iPhoto Library Manager to merge the two libraries into a new, 3rd library.
    If you don't then you'll have to try to fix the current one and then cull out the duplicates and small useless photos as follows:  make a temporary, duplicate copy of your library and apply the three fixes in order as necessary.
    Fix #1
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your HD/User/Home()/ Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your HD/User/Home()/Library /Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Fix #2
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #3
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If this doesn't fix the problem you'll have to start over from scratch and create a new library from the files inside the Originals folder of your current library.  But first you should cull out the small photos that would be the thumbnails from the 2001 library.
    Move the Originals folder to the Desktop, open and do a search for Kind=photo, File size is less than 10 KB.  That should find all of the thumbnail files which you can then drag to the Trash.  You might have to make that less than 50 KB. Then Import the remaining photos into a new iPhoto library.
