Quick answer:  Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields.

  • I have a new IMAC 5k running Yosemite and when I log in I am asked a whole series of questions as to what keychain can access. How can I authorise all of these to be available upon login? Items concerned are such as "Talagent", "Messages agent" etc

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
              Change Settings for Keychain "login"
    In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
              Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ First Aid
    There are four checkboxes in the window that opens. Check all of them. if they're not already checked. Close the window.
    Select
              Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.
    If you use iCloud Keychain, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the Keychain box. You'll be prompted to delete the local iCloud keychain. Confirm. Then re-check the box. Follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set up iCloud Keychain on an additional device.

  • Have new iMac OSx10.8.2, and when I connected my Epson Stylus pro3880, loaded printer drivers, and tried to print, the printer utility opens, then crashes. Any ideas? (it worked fine on my last iMac)

    Have a new imac OSx10.8.2, and when I connected my Epson Stylus pro 3880, loaded print drivers, and tried to print, the printer utility opened and then crashed; happened several times. Any ideas? (it worked fine on my older imac)

    I believe so. the driver version I have is 8.64
    The person gave me the instructions to reset the printing system and I followed it. That's what corrected the printing drop down windows.
    I am also having trouble finding the downloaded icc profiles for the papers I use. I see them in the Color Sync Utility, but not in the drop down window for Color Management. There is a thread on this forum relating to that, but I don't understand how to "copy" the profiles and put them elsewhere.

    Hi there
    I think in this case, you may be best to speak with Microsoft about this, as it does seem like an issue with Office, and not your Mac.
    Follow this link, to find your local Microsoft Support contact number.
    Or perhaps create a new topic in the Microsoft Support Communities
    Good luck

    It does... Apple TV has a problem with the assignment to the itunes account after updating. Restore to factory settings or unlog and news login to the itunes store helps to see the rented/downloaded film(s).

    It had not been used for awhile and most of the songs that were on there were gone when I turned it on.  I was trying to sync to update the library.

    Weeks, months, years?  It's possible your battery is dying.  Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

    or system preference->accessibility if it's assigned there?

  • I have a new Imac (used to be windows); when I buy a new song, imac threatens to wipe out all my songs/movies/shows/games.  What do I do? Can anyone help?

    I used to be on windows but the computer died.  I got an imac but when I try to buy new contents from the iStore, It threaten to delete all other material I previously purchased?  Does anyone know what I can do, please?

    You need to transfer everything from your backup copy of the old computer to the new one.
    Ipod touch will sync with only one computer at a time.  When you sync to another it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.
    If you have failed to maintain a backup copy ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the ipod:  Without syncing - File>Transfer Purchases

  • New iMac but iTunes shuts down when I download or add "purchased" videos.

    I just bought a new iMac, first I went to an Apple store and inquired that my main use would be with iTunes. I began to transfer songs from my iPod to the Mac using the Senuti file. The major problem is that I am forced to manually add the songs and videos to my library, but whenever theres an attempt to add any videos that I have purchased iTunes shuts its application, forcing me to reopen it only the find the video is not added. I did a test by purchasing a new video and I can see the download completing, but when it does the final part, again itunes shuts down and I've lost the video. Someone sent me a video gift and I was unable to download the video and the itunes store indicates that I have already spent the download, but its not in my library? I don't know what the problem is.

    First, I'd suggest you make sure that your iMac has the latest updates: Mac OS X 10.4.9, QuickTime 7.1.6, and iTunes 7.1.1. If it doesn't, update and see if that improves things.
    If not, Senuti may have created a corrupt iTunes library. You may need to delete the iTunes library files and add your tracks and videos again (and for any that haven't transferred from your iPod, you may wish to try a different transfer utility).
    Hope this helps.

  • I have just bought and paid for the new Batman movie on itunes and when it downloads it keeps getting to the same point in the download (1.53 gb) and stops. it has an error code 9006

    Ive tried restarting the download from scratch and it stiil dont get any further. I have over 600gb of free storage on my laptop and im able to download other movies, so connection is good!!

    Launch iTunes on your computer.
    From the menu bar click iTunes > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Click Reset warnings and Reset cache
    Click OK.
    Restart your computer, launch iTunes.
    Click Store > Check for Available Downloads...

  • I have a ton of apps i only have 11 pages of apps and when i download more apps it doesnt continue to the next page it just dissapears

    my apps just dissapear after 11 pages of apps and i cant see them or delete them

    11 pages is the limit. If you have enough space, you could put more in but you won't be able to see it. You have to use Spotlight to find it.
    Use computer iTunes to see beyond the 11 page limit. Also in here (much easier) you can group some of your apps together in a folder. Using folders you can have over 2000 apps.

  • I have updated my iphone to IOS 6 and when i download stuff from appstore it just dont download and you cannot take away the download

    on appstore i dont need to write in password and i have tried to do anything and it dont work and i get ****** of because i updated my favourite game and i cant play it.... i want to throw my iphone to the ground :/

    It sounds like to me you're trying to sync using the computer.
    Try these things and see if it helps before you try your next syncing session. If none of the things below work then you might consider trying to sync using iCloud only.
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • I have a new iMac and i created two libraries on iTunes. how do i copy songs from one library to the other?

    I have a new imac. I created two libraries, one for me, one for my kids. how do I copy songs from one library to the other library?

    Not easy unless you're just content with adding some files to the other as new files but lose playlists for those files, and playcount, and ratings, etc.  If you're okay with that, you can drag the media folder from one library to the other. If you use default settings and want to duplicate the media, just drag it. If you want to add the media but leave it where it is currently located, hold down the option key while dragging to the library window.
