HT1473 iTunes sometimes seperates songs from the same cd into 2 different albums, from one disc. how can I correct this?

I've been adding cd's to iTunes on my Mac Book Pro. Sometimes, it splits songs off of a single cd and treats these songs like a seperate album. I've changed artist and album artist info, checked the compilation box, and burned the cd's a second (third, etc) time, but can't get the problem corrected. Anyone else having these problems? Some of the cd's are from the 80's and 90's, so that may be one reason for the difficulty. Can't seem to find a correction. I can create playlist of these cd's, but I'd like to have them as the album in their entirety. So far, Bongo Fury by Zappa/Beefheart is giving me the most trouble; the first song always remains seperate from the other 8 songs. The disc is from 1989. Any ideas, anyone?

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. This one sounds like a job for the trailing X method in Tried that, there are STILL too many covers!

Is this the lenght for each of your songs or the total length for all songs in the player?

Setesh, See if both computer has the same version of iTunes, if both are the same, then it is your PC, that has plug-ins which is in conflict it iTunes. ( normally it is the Antivirus or some plug-ins to beautify your screen)
If it is different, most likely the other PC has an older version of iTunes, so you should downgrade your iTunes to that older version, which your iPod interface well with.
Other probable causes,
you are using the USB 1.1 port at the front of your PC, and not the USB2,0 port at the back of your PC. so switch to the back.
Dont use any other USB devices, when you are syncing the iPod.
Dont use any USH Hub.
Have a nice day!

HT204406 i cannot download a song from iCloud. How can I solve this issue?

Strangely, some songs that are stored on iCloud cannot be downloaded on my devices (Mac and iPhone) although other songs which are in the same purchased album work fine. Any idea?
For example, I cannot download the song "Absolute Beginners" from the "Best of Bowie" album - I've purchased this album on iTunes in 2007 - although the other songs from the same album can be downloaded without problems. I have the same problem for other songs purchased on iTunes as well.
Am I the only one?

When you delete the local track are you removing the original and the listing from iTunes.

HT1386 I have been syncing my IPad to only one PC computer successfully for over a year. Now when I try to sync I get the message that the ipad is synced with another computer and can be synced with only one. How can I correct this?

Although I have synced my ipad to only one PC computer I now get the message that it is synced to another computer and only one computer sync is permitted. I have lots of apps on the ipad and do not want to loose everything by starting fresh with the ipad. How can I get the ipad to again accept my computer and sync successfully?

I use HP SimplePass Identity Protection to control my passwords. Everything was fine until I updated to Firefox 4. Can I remove version 4 or is there a solution to my problem. I received the following error message; Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (dpql) isn't associated with any program.

You'll have to downgrade to the previous secure version I regret to say. See https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/799388
Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop. 
Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box). 
Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 
Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier. 
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation. 
After you complete the installation, go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update those where necessary.

You can't gift it, gifting can only be done from within the store, not from within your library.
Puchases are considered final but you can try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
