I just want an album to be associated with a single artist!!!

I am importing albums and nobody I have talked to thinks I can do what I want to do here!! Any suggestions/tricks would be SO welcome..
When I import an album, I would like for the ALBUM to be associated with a single artist but maintain all the info it has for the song. For example, Elton John Two Rooms, is an album where all these folks got together and did Elton John songs. Elton does not perform any of the songs though. So.. When I import the album I want to be able to go to Elton John and access the album as a single unit - a single Elton John album. Instead, iTunes breaks each song out to the artist who performs each song! I couldn't care less!! I know I could change the info so it shows each song as being performed by Elton and this would be done, but I would like to hold that info!
This also happens on many other albums I have - Jools Holland's Big Band, blah blah blah..
Thanks for any help!

Yeah.. I had figured that out for another album - Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds.. That is one where I couldn't care less about the artists.. I just want to go to Jeff Wayne and play War of the Worlds..
But in this circumstance - and the Jools Holland one as well - I would really like to maintain the artist information but I still want the album as an album rather than tracks spread all over the place by various artists. This is my first forray into the iTunes and iPod stuff and am just getting frustrated at how useless this "organization" focus for iTunes is. It seems SO individual track focused as opposed to viewing an album as a contiguous item.
Anyone know how to use this "Grouping" thing?

    Thanks for your suggestions. I checked to see if the options you suggested were set incorrectly but they were set to sync all. This led me to think the problem was actually in the iphone. I re-initialized the iphone and did not allow the system to restore any of the previous settings. In essence, I forced the phone to reset to factory settings. Then my video podcasts started syncing. All is well now. I did notice that I had seven podcasts selected that were "HD" presentations, and as such, are not compatible with the iphone. I don't know if this had anything to do with my earlier situation, but now I'm getting the video podcasts automatically. I'm happy. It wasn't much fun forcing the iphone to forget all of my preferences and I'm still customizing the phone now several days later. I think I have everything working and back to normal except I haven't identified any of my email accounts as of yet. Thanks for your help.

  • I have an hd movie on both my ipad and iPhone 5, using airplay with my iPhone 5 plays perfectly but gets stuck with my ipad 2, almost like its buffering? I just want it to play smoothly like with my iPhone. Any suggestion?

    I have an hd movie on both my ipad and iPhone 5, using airplay on my apple tv with my iPhone 5 plays perfectly but gets stuck with my ipad 2, almost like its buffering? I just want it to play smoothly like with my iPhone. Any suggestion?

    About 6 months ago I discovered iTunes was set by default to 720p. These MUST BE CHANGED TO 1080P!!!!!!!!.......So I installed FULL 1080P file on my laptop on iTunes...  When I download movies on iPhone 5s/iPad mini the file is 720p So within about 60 seconds of starting download of 1080p files into my laptop of iTunes purchases. It was at that moment that I realized it was that file my laptop has on file to sync to my Apple device...Ten minutes later when the first 1080P HD file was downloaded  I must say... The resolution is amazing... I now use this same process to install movie files from iTunes.. In FULL 1080P.. Not 720P... Works on my iPad mini also... Avatar is 5.4 GB if installed over Wi-Fi... However sync with laptop and file is 6.5 GB in size... Called Apple told them... No reply yet.... You must delete 720P files from your laptop... Look for file size in any movie purchase and you will see DOWNLOAD IN 1080P.. This will open preferences in iTunes for you to the correct tab so you can change setting to 1080p from default of 720p... DELETE any downloaded movies already downloaded into laptop... You can check file quality by right click on any movie folder and the look at movie info... Will say 720p HD... Delete to recycle bin and iCloud will appear on each movie... Now download 1080P HD file... When completed. Right click any file to verify it is 1080P HD... The sync with device...... And get ready to be upset with Apple for holding back your device for the last 2 years 3 months and 16 days......And be ready to catch your jaw from hitting the floor when you see your screen in full 1080P HD.... Apple Engineer's were asleep.....
    You will notice better pic quality... Apple by default is still sending the 720P file to the new iPhone 6 plus over wifi and sync.. howve this process above will give you full HD file for your Apple device...

  • UCCX-Max JTAPI triggers that can be associated with a single script

    Hi,
         We are on UCCX 7.0(1)SR5 cluster. I would like to know if there is any maximum limit on the number of JTAPI triggers that can be associated with a single UCCX application/script. I have this requirement where in I will have to create 80+ JTAPI triggers and associate all of them to a single UCCX script. Will there be any impact on the performance with this approach?
    My second question is- is there a limit on the number of sessions that can be associated with a single UCCX application?
    Thanks,
    DM

    There is no need to have multiple chained CTI Route Points. The call should flow through UCM as follows:
    Arrives from a PSTN gateway with a specific DNIS value per number. In most cases carriers will not give you the real toll-free number that was called but either another DNIS value representing each toll-free number; or, a portion of it such as the last four digits.
    In many cases - but not necessarily required - customers then use translation patterns to change the provided value into a value that the CCX CTI Route Points are configured in. For example, if the provider is sending you a DNIS of 84XX of the toll-free calls and you want the CTI RPs to be 71XX, you can create a translation pattern that does exactly that.
    You create a single trigger (assuming all the toll-free numbers go to the same script/application) and use a wildcard pattern of 71XX when creating it.
    (More Optional) If the script needs to know the exact toll-free number that was dialed, you can use the Get Call Contact Info step to get the called number.
    Otherwise the script wouldn't be aware that you've used wildcards in the route point.

  • Just want to record motion detect video with WVC80N

    All I want to do is record motion detected video while I'm at work and view it when I get home.  I don't want remote access and I don't care about email notifications.  Does someone have some SIMPLE instructions for how to get this working?  I've read many of the posts on this forum and found all kinds of complex setups involving multiple webpages and port forwarding, etc., etc.  I just can't believe it's this complicated just to set up something simple.  BTW -- I have no problem viewing live video either through the camera utility or via web browser.  I can do instant recordings, but no motion detected video.  IMHO the camera itself is great, but the support is pathetic.  Camera utility program is terrible.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you want to record motion detected video for WVC80N then install your Internet Home Monitoring Camera with the disk here is the link - http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&login=1&vw=1&app=search&articleid=20543&userrole=Links... .
    Then open up the Linksys Wireless-N IP camera has a built-in web-based setup. Here is the link for Installing WVC80N using the Web-Based Setup Page:
    http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&login=1&vw=1&app=search&articleid=22473&userrole=Links...
    After doing all the procedure open up the utility and click on settings tab and click on browse and select the the destination where you want to save the recorded files..

  • I want to edit the application associated with pdf files, but the pdf file type is not available on the Applications tab under edit preferences. How do I add file types?

    I am running Firefox 5.0 (Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0) under Kubuntu 11.04.

    Thanks jscher2000, I tried your suggestion, but no joy (as expected). None of the extensions were .bin, and in fact, I can't find a single listing for handling the .bin extension in the entire (unfiltered) list.
    That's why I'm so confused. Where is Firefox getting the name "VLC.bin (default)" from in the first place?
    cor-el, I checked out the link that you posted.
    I don't have an entry for "browser.download.pluginOverrideTypes" and the entry "plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types" was empty (default setting).
    My bad, but I forgot to mention in my first post that I had also tried renaming the mimetypes.rdf file in my "Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxx.default\" to .old to no avail.
    Firefox created a new, almost empty file, but it didn't change the behavior for .bin files. I removed the new file and put the old file back in place after determining that clearing the file did not help, since I am otherwise happy with my current file-type options.
    However, since the option to "Always perform this action" is grayed-out, I am looking into the possibility that the website is sending a misconfigured MIME type or is assigning "Content-Disposition: attachment" to the download. What's odd, though, is that I've never had problems getting binary files from the site in the past, and the problem started when the VLC player was installed.
    I'll post back after I check into the server header data.

  • My TV shows won't download. It keeps saying error 3050 and this computer is already associated with an Apple ID. I really don't want to spend eight dollars on two episodes again. What do I do to fix this dilemma?

    A couple oe f days ago, I started downloading the BBC's version of Sherlock. I have the entire first season completely downloaded. The second season (and unaired pilot) is a different story. It was downloading, but my internet kept crashing so I couldn't finish the downloading process. I shut down iTunes for the night and thought to myself "I finish it in the morning." This morning, I attempted to finish the downloading process, but it would only let me download two of the four episodes. The other two just say "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID after 90 days." I used one account to download the TV shows and nothing else.
    I'm really confused and really frustrated with this. Any suggestions/answers are welcomed and greatly appreciated!

    This is a somewhat recent change, but frankly there is no reason to constantly be logging out of one Apple ID and logging in with a different Apple ID.
    If multiple people with different Apple ID's are regularly using the same computer, either authorize the computer for each of the Apple IDs or created unique logins on the computer for each user and have each sign in with their appropriate Apple ID.

  • The Calendar app is showing a calendar from an iPhone that is no longer associated with my Apple ID or iCloud ID, why is it doing that and why can't I remove it?

    I just bought a MacBook Pro and am having some problems with the calendar and contacts list, and my problem could be causing other issues that I am not aware of. So, this is what's happening:
    I had two iPhone5s associated with my Apple ID for a while. When I got this MacBook, and learned of Family Sharing, I decided that it would be better for each user to have their own unique ID. So, I have deleted and set up a new Apple ID and iCloud ID on the phone I want separated from MY Apple ID and iCloud. I want the computer to be associated with MY IDs, not the other phone. However, the computer still thinks the two phones are one in the same, despite the other phone being removed from both accounts and being registered with different IDs. Things I have noticed: The calendar on the computer still has the old phones calendar and still has all of the old phones contacts. When I went to use FaceTime and iMessage, the old phone number still shows up as an option. The old phone is still connected to something, somewhere, but I can't figure it out. My data, contacts, and calendars also show up, both phones show up all over the computer and I only want ONE phone, MY phone to show up. 
    Things I have tried:
    Deleting the accounts from iCloud & iTunes
    Updating the OS
    Rebooting, phones and computer
    Logging out and logging back in
    Creating a new user account on the computer
    Probably several other things I'm just not remembering because it's 4 am and I've been doing this since 11:30 pm and am completely exhausted.
    I've literally been Googling and browsing this forum for hours and trying everything I see, but nothing is working. The computer still thinks it's connected to the old phone. It's making me crazy because the user has literally 39 alarms every single day reminding her to do different things. It makes me absolutely crazy because the notifications are popping up on the computer. PLEASE, HELP ME!

  • How can I set up my Mac Pro so that my wife and I can use our separate iTunes accounts? I keep getting an error message that the computer is already associated with an Apple ID even though the two accounts are associated with separate log ins!

    I'm getting very confused with setting up multiple user accounts on my Mac Pro for my wife and I. We each have a separate iTunes account, and we want to keep our music libraries seaprate. I've set up two user accounts on the Mac Pro and I have my iTunes authorised and logged into my user account on my user account. Under my wifes user account (i.e. a separate log in on the computer) I'm trying to set up her iTunes account, but I can't download or play anything from the cloud - it just says "This computer is already associated with another iTunes Account" and tells me that if I 'transfer' then I won't be able to use the other one for 90 days! This is really annoying as my wife can't access music she has purchased on her iTunes account on the home machine. We're not trying to do anything dodgy, just access our music on our own accounts on separate log ins on the same machine. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

    Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!
