I purchased CDs and imported them into my iTunes and when the artists has other artists featured on the tracks it separates these tracks into a different album. How can I consolidate these back into one album?

I have CDs that I've purchased from music stores (ie. Best Buy) and have imported them into my itunes library. The problem is that iTunes has separated all the tracks that feature another artist into a separate album. I want all the songs filed under the same album, so that when I play the whole album, I can hear all the songs. Also when the album work is not showing up on some of these CDs. How can I fix this?

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

Whether you can redownload music depends upon what country that you in. If you are using your computer's iTunes then does music show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (on your phone you might be able to redownload media via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app) ? If music shows there, but not that album, then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If you aren't in a country when you can redownload music and it's still on your phone then you should be able to copy it over from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.

I tunes has deleted all the songs from my HDD literally as I watched??!!

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Thought my PC was protected from this kind of invasion??????
All my music/videos and Purchases have literally dissapeared from itunes folder and hard drive. It was there half an hour ago and all that happened is:
I forgot my password. It is even more serious because I was already signed in and downloading a video and was only asked for my password when i wanted to view my account whilst the download was taking place (Itunes must have remembered my password and logged me in automatically because I did not sign in to download the song but it was happening). Anyway...i went through the password reset procedure and returned to itunes to find an empty area where all my music/podcasts/purchases/videos should be.
(I have not plugged my ipod today in at this stage)
So I look in the music files for my music and it has all gone!! everything!!
I then looked at the empty itunes and it said there are two downloads pending. one was a video i had already downloaded successfully into itunes last week and one was the video i was downloading today when the problem ocurred.
so next I went into my account and looked at purchase history and it does not show any purchases other than the one that was downloading today. This is despite me purchasing 3 songs and videos since Christmas??
All my other history and account information is still there.
I tried importing the itunes library file left in the my music folder but was told I had no privilages.
Next I rebooted PC but no change
Next i plugged in my ipod and it came up with the ipod was synced to a different itunes library do i want to sync and replace. I said no
I removed ipod quickly
So I still have all songs/videos and podcasts on my ipod but an empty music folder on my hard drive and an empty itunes library that thinks it does not belong to my ipod.
That is a massive amount of corruption to my PC in a space of 30 mins. could you please explain what you have done to my itunes and more importantly the mechanism that allows your program to enter my hard drive and delete all the music in front of my eyes??. Can i restore the library using the files on my ipod and what has happened to my purchases in the 'my account section of itunes'
This is obviously very serious and VERY urgent as it touches on hacking my PC unless i have missed something???
Couild someone please get back to me ASAP with ideas/help
Thank you

I have found a solution that works 100% with my ipod 5th generation 30gig video with the following symptoms:
a). Ipod has all my music on it along with videos podcasts etc etc…
b). the My documents/My music/itunes files library etc are all suddenly empty on the HDD and all music/video in folder has gone. I even ran searches of the whole HDD and all music has gone.
c). When ipod is plugged in you get the message ‘this ipod is synced with another itunes – do you want to – ‘sync and replace’ or ‘copy purchases from this ipod to this itunes’ or ‘CANCEL’
If this is not the problem with your ipod then another solution may be best for you. If it is ….please read on. PLEASE READ ALL TEXT BEFORE ATTEMPTING.
1. go to ‘my computer’ and then to the tabs at the top: tools – folder options – view and in hidden files and folders make sure that show hidden files and folders is checked.
2. leave the my computer window open so it can be viewed.
3. plug in you ipod and it will try to sync and give you the options mentioned in intro
4. Make sure you press cancel and the ipod should try to sync for a couple of seconds then the ‘do not disconnect’ symbol on the ipod should stop flashing and your normal menus should appear on the ipod.
5. The ipod name should now be in the itunes folders on the LH side of itunes as usual. your itunes folders (perhaps purchases may show up)should be empty due to the fault.
6. click on the ipod to get the status and capacity screen and on this screen check the ‘disk use’ button.
7. the ipod should be seen in the ‘my documents’ folder if it is not disconnect and let it try to sync again but make sure you do not let it.
8. Once ipod drive is seen in ‘my computer’ minimise itunes (do not close or drive may disappear)
9. Go to the itunes directory on the Windows machine (My Music/ itunes by default) and delete the XML file and the ITL file which is the library database installed when you hooked up the iPod.
10. With those files deleted the itunes library is now empty as it should be for this process.
11. in ‘my computer, right click over the ipod drive and click ‘explore’ Find the folder called iPod Control it will appear to be transparent as it was a hidden folder
12. Copy that folder to anywhere on the PC which will take a while if you have a lot of songs. you may as well copy it into ‘my music next to the itunes folder for neatness. Even though it appears to be filled with many files with nonsensical names this is in fact the music library on the iPod.
13. When this copy is complete right click on the coppied file and go to ‘properties and uncheck ‘hidden’ and ‘read only’ tabs and the folder should then appear as a normal folder
14. Maximise iTunes and go to the top tabs and go EDIT/PREFERENCES/ADVANCED and make sure that ‘keep itunes music folder organised’ and ‘copy files to itunes music folder when adding to library’ are selected.
15. This is important to get iTunes to organise the songs using the ID3 tags in the song files you just copied over.
16. Go to ‘my music’. If new XML and ITL files have appeared delete them now .
17. Now in itunes go to FILE/ADD folder to library and Next, select the coppied ipod control folder from ‘my music’. That's it- you will now see iPod songs copied to itunes desktop and nicely organised and in the iTunes database as they were before the fault. NOTE this can take a while
18. Once completed restart computer first and check library is stable and all songs etc have restored and are stable). you will notice a new xml and library file have appeared in ‘my music’
19. Connect the ipod once you are happy the scontent you want is back in the library on itunes.
20. This time select ‘sync and erase’ You will see your ipod be emptied (GULP!) but then itunes should start to restore all the songs etc from the library to your ipod. again this will take time.
21. Once complete you should be back to normal and you can decide whether to store the ipod control folder in ‘my music’ somewhere as a backup or delete it
I really hope this helps but It worked for my 5th gen ipod 30 gig video and so should work for you. If it fails for any reason I cannot be held responsible and you do this at your own risk.

HT201317 icloud has deleted all my photos - how do I get them back

I started an iCloud account last night as I wanted to be able to get videos off my phone and share them.
This evening when I checked my photo gallery on my iphone all the photos I'd taken over the last 2 and a half years on my iphone had disappeared. Instead my photo library now seems to be populated by photos I've taken on my digital camera.
itunes says my phone was last backed up to the iCloud this evening so I'm worried that all my photos have disappeared.
This is extremely frustrating. iPhone and apple don't make it easy to get your content off the phone (for instance there doesn't seem to be a way to get photos off the phone without iphoto and I can't get it on my operating system).
Is there any way to get my photos and videos back?

I DONT UNDERSTAND ICLOUD I AM TRYING TO ADD SONGS I HAVE PURCHASED TO MY IPOD AND IT SHOWS THE CLOUD BY ALL THE SONGS HOW DO I ADD THEM FROM MY COMPUTER TO MY IPOD?

I am having trouble putting the songs i purchased onto my ipod shuffle help me someone please and i dont understand why i have a cloud by the songs

You add them from your computer by syncing with iTunes, as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313. The cloud symbol you see in Purchased list in the iTunes app on your iPod is to download them from the iTunes store if you ever need to, or don't have access to a computer to sync them to your iPod. This feature is called "iTunes in the Cloud".

I lost my laptop I didn't back up and I just bought a new one .How can I get all the songs I bought in itunes store back to my new laptop??

can someone help me please?
I lost my laptop on Monday and I didn't back up. I just bought a new macbook air so I know I have to install all my applications and softwares again but I was told I could get my old itunes library I mean all the music I bought back in my new laptop. can someone tell me how to do it or if I can?

Sorry, but officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. It's your responsibility to make backup copies (as iTunes itself advises) in case something goes wrong with your system, as unfortunately it apparently did in your case, and you lose all the information on your hard drive. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
For apps, look here for instructions on redownloading. For songs, movies, and videos, if you don't have a backup of your purchased items, either on external media or another computer and don't have them on an iOS device (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad), you're probably out of luck and will need to repurchase your content.
If you have your content on an iOS device, post back and someone here can help you get them restored. Otherwise you can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it.
Regards.

What's the easiest way to select all my files from all the folders on a hard drive and place into one folder?

Hi there,
I have about 30,000 images all in hundreds of folders. I'm wondering what the easiest way to get them all into one folder so I can select and convert them all from .psd, .tiff, etc all to jpg. The reason I'm doing this is because the folder structure is such a mess, that I'm just going to import them all into aperture to sort everything. But the .tiffs and .psds are 100 mb each so I want to scale them to jpgs that are only 4 or 5 mb before I even think about importing them into aperture.
I tried doing a search for "kind is image" and it shows them all but a ton of them are renamed the same thing so when I try to select all and move into one folder it tells me I can skip that one or stop copying.
Any thoughts or ideas on this?
Thanks,
Caleb

Hi russelldav,
one note on your data handling:
When each of the 50 participants send the same 60 "words" you don't need 3000 global variables to store them!
You can reorganize those data into a cluster for each participant, and using an array of cluster to keep all the data in one "block".
You can initialize this array at the start of the program for the max number of participants, no need to (dynamically) add or delete elements from this array...
Edited:
When all "words" have the same representation (I16 ?) you can make a 2D array instead of an array of cluster...

Iv lost all my songs, how do i get them back

i have lost most of my songs, how do i get them back

thanks for the reply, iv done that now but there are still some missing becouse i did not sync the new songs to computer, now i have reciver phone back after ripair and not sure if i can get the missing songs back.

I have zinced songs from my PC to my iPad and it has copied all the songs on my pc but some are showing very faintly on my iPad and these songs will not play. I have tried to delete them but they will not stay hilighted and show delete to enable me to do

Can anyone help me to delete the faintly listed songs on my iPad which I have transferred from my Pc but they will not play on my iPad.

Thanks for trying to help me.
First, in you reply (and i've read this elsewhere), you imply that i need to check a box that says "manually manage music." OK, great, but where do i find such box? Is that on the iphone or in itunes? Also, i am afraid of losing what i already do have on my phone. I have about 150 songs, some of which were purchesed thru itunes, but most of which i "dropped and dragged" from my older computer with the older version of itunes. When i go to itunes with my iphone plugged in, all of the boxes are grayed out, except one at the top that says "Sync Music". When i check this box, i get an error warning that says "Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones from this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? Music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones synced to [name of my iPhone] from other iTunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this iTunes library."
So, i have over 3000+ songs in my itunes library on my computer... obviously that isn't going to fit on my phone. So then, what is going to happen? I'll lose everything that is already on my phone PLUS it will NOT be able to sync?
Is now the time to buy a Zune?!? For the company that is supposedly "user friendly", Apple has really managed to screw this one up.
Thanks, John

My album i purchased a few months ago is not playing all the songs anymore. It will start off with one song playing and then sometimes not even half way it jumps to another song. I havent been on Itunes in awhile to mess with anything on that.

The album is Maroon 5 new cd. If anyone had problems with that. It is the only album that is not working right.

Is the Wi-Fi button greyed out? Try this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
Also, make a backup to iTunes of the device. Then restore it as a new device. If you still have wi-fi greyed out, then contact Apple again, and explain that you believe you have a hardware issue. They may still ask for a $19 deposit, but if it is actually hardware related, then you won't be charged the $19. Only if it is software related do you get charged that $19.

I have two groups for my Coldplay collection. How do I get them back into one group?

In early 2009, my Coldplay collection jumped from their then-four studio albums to a collection in triple digits. Somewhere along the way, certain songs and albums were going into a separate group called 'Coldplay', just like the regular 'Coldplay'. Countless times, I have gone through each and every song and album in the second group to check for any inconsistincies, but, everything looks identical.
I am OCD in terms of things belonging where they should and having two groups of the same thing drive me insane.
When the problem first arose, I was using Windows XP. I received a MacBook Pro for graduation this past May and I used Home Sharing to transfer my music to my new Mac. I was hoping something could be changed, but alas, nothing.
Any help?

Look at Steve MacGuire's helpful article: http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp It explains how to solve this much better than I can.

Requisition import has grouped all the requisition lines in one requisition

HI
I need a help.
Requisition import has grouped all the requisition lines (having sourcing supplier and inventory)in one requisition
for whcih the type lookup code is 'Purchase'. the source of requisition was MRP. How the system can group the items having different sourcing(few are from supplier and few are from inventory) into one requisition.
Is this the oracle standard functionality
Thanks
Payal

See req import group by parameter is playing a role here..
I think maybe it is considering ALL and clubbing together to one..not sure though
See if these threads can help the cause
