how do i move songs that are in separate albums into the same album?

Of course it should, but if it doesn't do you want fix it or leave it broken? iTunes draws on the CDDB database for track details. That database is incomplete, contains errors, and isn't explicitly designed to be "iTunes friendly". If you download an album from the iTunes store then the tracks should normally be grouped together, although there are ways of sorting the Songs view that will always break things up. If you purchase from Amazon, elsewhere, or rip your CDs then you may sometimes need to make a minor update to the tags to tidy things up. Which workaroud is needed depends on context, but the most common one of setting an Album Artist takes a few seconds.

  • How do I put all the songs from a compilation album into the same /album/folder in Itunes v12

    How do I put all the songs from a compilation album into the same /album/folder in Itunes v12 i know in other versions it was via get info but as all of the tunes have the same album title , I am not sure what tio change to achieve this ?

    I don't see your screenshot but I assume you're starting with something like this, i.e., the compilation split into multiple albums:
    If you select all the items that you want to be in a single album, right-click > Get Info you'll see this:
    As you say, in iTunes 12 you don't see a field to enter a distinct Album Artist value.  You can, however, address this by clicking the Add Field button and selecting Album Artist:
    That makes the field available in the metadata dialog so that you can enter the required value:
    You can also show the pre-iTunes 12 version of the dialog by holding the SHIFT key when selecting Get Info - this allows you to enter the Album Artist directly:

  • How do I move songs from one library to another on the same computer? Also, how do I change the name of a library?

    I have created a separate Apple account, but want to use the same computer for multiple accounts. How do I do this? I also want to transfer songs from one account to the new one.

    is this second library in a different account on the computer?

  • How can I import songs that are protected wma

    how can I import songs that are protected wma?

    Sorry, but you can't. iTunes can neither import nor play any protected Windows Media content. You'll have to ask the source of your tracks how to get them unprotected, if such a service is offered.
    Regards.

  • HT1451 How do I consolidate album songs in my itunes library? The songs are showing up separately under the same album cover.

    How do I consolidate album songs in my itunes library? The songs are showing up separately under the same album cover.

    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.
    BTW, are you really still using Windows 2000?

  • I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order.

    I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order. The "Apply Sort Field" and "Same album does not work, but ti is only these two RCA albums that do this. All other albums remain intact. Need help with this minor problem. Thanks.

    UPDATE: This behavior (to an extent) still happens when "Repeat Album" is off. Instead of an infinite loop, it goes through all the tracks on the album (unsuccessfully) and kicks me out to the Album overview screen. Going back to list of Albums and tapping the Album again brings up "No Content: You can download music from the iTunes Store" but that screen immediately kicks me back to list of Albums.
    So I am just even more confused now.

  • Songs that i purchased didnt go into the downloaded category

    Ive bought 10 songs in the past and all the songs went into this "downloaded" file that Ive payed for work and I can listen to them, but more recently I tried downloading 10 more songs and only 3 of them showed up in the downloaded file. I'm missing 7 songs i payed for and Im not sure what to do about it. My history shows i have bought those other 7 songs and it also shows they have been transfered and confirmed or what not, but they didnt show up in the file! Im slightly frustrated with Itunes as of right now!

    I'm sorry for your bad experience! I know it's hard to erase first impressions. I'm confident you'll get your missing downloads...in my experience having purchased 5,763 items thus far from the iTunes store...the company is very understanding and reasonable. It's just a pain when problems happen on weekends and holidays and it takes a little longer to get a human response.
    I had a catastrophic computer melt down a few months ago. I lost my main hard drive and my backup drive. I was beside myself with grief when I realized that my iTunes purchases were history. Fortunately I dealt with a very understanding Apple employee who reset my download options and I was able to get the bulk of my music files back (you can't redownload things that are no longer offered in the iTunes store)! (In the meantime, I did a lot of online research and found a way to recover the files from my crashed backup drive...so I now have all of my music back. Anyway, I was quite impressed with Apple's customer service...it was head and shoulders above my experience trying to recover my Amazon downloads! Just food for thought.

  • How can I display a compilation album as one album rather than as separate songs? (each different artist shows with the same album art)

    I want a compilation album, consisting of different artists, to all be included within the one album folder.  Currently when scrolling through my ipod classic each artist has its own album folder, even though they originate from the same album e.g. "The Best Rock 'n' Roll Album in the World Ever" consists of two discs (50 songs).  Each artist's song shows as a 'separate album' of one song, each with the same album artwork.  I want all of those on Disc 1 to be under one album cover and similarly for those on Disc 2.

    Select all the tracks on disc 1 and via Get Info, change the Album Artist to Various Artists and turn on the compilation flag. This is iTunes 12:
    Then repeat for disc 2.

  • If I import a CD onto iTunes with tracks that have more than one person on (eg Rihanna ft Drake), it puts these tracks in a separate album. How do I get them all back into the same album?

    It's done it with a load of cds, so then I can't even get the album artwork to work. Please help! It's starting to bug me haha

    In iTunes select all songs you want in the same album, right click the selection, choose "get info", type the album name in the album field, click OK.

  • How to create a proxy that accept requestes get/post in the same time?

    Hi everybody,
    I have two questions with Service Bus 11gR1.
    I have to create a proxy in https that accept request get/post in the same time, also this proxy should be able to recognize the common name of the certificate.
    Is it possibile?
    Thanks a lot.
    Ettore

    The approach I mentioned is part of correctly configuring client cert authentication. For client cert authentication to succeed weblogic expects the user derived from the certificate by the user name mapper class to exist ( just exist , it wont check the password) in its security realm. The problem you have mentioned is common for any type of 'authentication' and not just specific to this approach.
    The user name mapper class can be configured to accept any attribute in the certificate DN as the mapped user. Since the thread starter is interested in CN, then he has to set CN as the mapping attribute.
