Impossible to listen to whole album or to add it to queue

Hello, I am testing Spotify right now and plan eventually to continue my Premium supscription after the trial period but right now, I have a very annoying problem on the desktop version. I want to to a very simple and basic action : Listen to an album. Nothing more. Just click on the album and listen to it. As simple as it sounds, it is impossible and I lost already one hour searching for a solution. After each song, the system forces a song from the queue to play. The queue can't be cleared and I can't choose the songs which are listed there ; even if I try to add the album I want to listen to the queue, it doesn't work ... I can't even deactivate the queue .... I don't understand why such a simple thing is so complicated ... Thanks for solving this soon ... KInd regards,

Hi there, For those of you who have the same problem ; I found the solution : Just reinstall Spotify. The queue will then be empty. Thanks. Kind regards,

Impossible to listen album bought through itunes

impossible to listen album bought through itunes

Thanks for the reply but I tried that with no luck. I tried to deauthorize my boyfriend's computer but it says his computer is not authorized. I don't know what happens when the computers get reformatted but somehow, it takes up the authorization count. I didn't realize I had to deauthorize before I reformat. Now I don't know how to undo this situation.

How do I listen to a whole album

I have to play individual tracks. How can I play a whole album or create a play list on my new iPad?

Make sure Preferences, General, View (Edit > Preferences on PC) "Show list checkboxes" is unchecked.
Albums will then play normally then by just clicking them in Songs or Albums views.

Song won't sync to iPad no matter what (deleted a whole album while listening to that song)

I bought a new album today at the store (Slaughterhouse, welcome to:Our House) and had a lot of problems with it today. I solved most of them (which included sorting all the songs into one album and into the same order) but, just when I think everything is going great as I put the album artwork in (done this before) my OCD makes me delete the whole album off the iPad to see if it all works again when I sync it. Well, I forgot to stop playing the first track (The Slaughter) when I deleted it, and no matter what I try I can't get it back. I have tried a lot, and nobody has asked a similar question so I can't find any more help.
As I said before, I have OCD, and only the first track is gone (which is just a skit), but, I bought this album JUST to put on my iPad, because we were out. I am really frustrated.
What I have done includes:
Removing the album from the music library
Removing the album from my own playlist
Resyncing the whole album
Removing the CD and putting it back in
Trying to regroup the whole album like before, including trying to have The Slaughter have the same artwork as the rest of the album
This really troubles me, and I might think again about getting an album from the store if nobody answers this.

All right, I tried again the next day and I didn't have a problem. I still have no idea what happened the first time, but I guess it was just a random glitch or something. Sorry for the trouble...although nobody else appears to have figured it out either. Thanks again.

Why does iPhone rate whole album when it syncs to iTunes rather than just single song sometimes?

I wasn't sure if this should be an iTunes or iPhone discussion, so here goes!
I am very particular about rating my music. Every day at work, as songs play on my iPhone, I give them a star rating. This star rating then transfers to iTunes when I sync my phone. Most times, these ratings go through just fine. Sometimes, however, rather than just rating a single song with three stars on an album... It'll give the whole album in iTunes three stars. (Three stars is just an example.)
What I mean is that if viewing an album list, the album rating will be hard coded per se on the left and give all the songs three stars even if I never listened to / rated them. I can then click to remove the rating on the album on the left, and the unrated / unplayed songs will lose that hard coded rating and return to no rating.
What am I doing wrong? Lol. It drives me crazy! Once a month I view all my albums as a list so I can remove the hard coded ratings. There are usually six or seven albums that'll have it. I do nothing different on the iPhone that I am aware of.
Has anyone else experienced this situation or have a solution? I'm on an iPhone 4S, latest software. This also occurred with my iPhone 3GS

Still an issue, Apple. iPad with 5.1.1 and I have the same issue. There doesn't appear to be a way to rate a single song.

HT1849 a single album I already bought can work with the whole album using 'Complete my album'?

I already bought a single album of MUSE (Survival - Single)
and I wanted to buy the whole album of MUSE (The 2nd Law)
then I realized that I could buy other songs except for 'Survival' for $10.7 using 'Complete My Album' (Original price is $11.9)
so I bought 'The 2nd Law' album for $10.7. but there isn't 'Survival' on the 'The 2nd Law' album playlist.
single album and whole album are seperated on the playlist. how I get the whole album playlist??
Do I have to buy 'Survival' in the whole album's list to make perfect 'The 2nd Law' album playlist??
plase help me.

I have this exact same question / issue too and it is definitely something I would LOVE to see Apple fix ASAP. It is especially important to me because so many popular artists release Singles (as Single Albums) weeks or even months in advance of their full album coming out. When I have the choice, I ALWAYS prefer to buy a single song from the album it is on (in case I like the song a lot and want to check out more from that artist) - however, this is often not possible due to the "Single Album" phenomenon. Sidenote: could you just freakin' get rid of Single Albums altogether (when there is an associated real album)? They clutter up the See All Albums view horribly - at least give us a filter or something for the real-deal studio albums vs all the junk.
While it is great that I get "credit" for my purchase from the Single Album towards the real Album (thanks for that Apple), I personally have a strong preference to then see the original single as part of the album instead of as a stand-alone. It's just cleaner organization-wise, easier from a usability standpoint (you can actually listen to the whole album you bought using the album filter!), etc. It would at least be nice to have the choice to "convert" the original single to the Album version, if Apple is concerned about forcing the change (I personally would be happy with a forced change, but if given a choice would always convert).
Please fix this!!!
My example:
-Bought Calvin Harris, "Feel So Close (Radio Edit)" back in March '12 (I think it was released in August '11) for $1.29
-Completed My Album by buying "18 Months" album for $8.70 recently (released Oct 30, 2012)
-Was happy to pay $8.70 instead of $9.99 (got full credit for the $1.29 I spent on the single) - good job Apple
-Am now frustrated that "Feel So Close (Radio Edit)" has different Album info, different Album cover art etc - BAD job Apple
Would love to hear that this is going to be addressed soon - hopefully with a retroactive converter tool too??
PS I realize I could manually adjust the metadata for the track to make it match, but I HATE the idea of doing that. Very clunky solve and I personally would be worried that I missed something or didn't "fully" change everything, the underlying file is not exactly what I would have gotten from the full album version, etc.

HT1711 How do I get a album that I purchased already to show the whole album. After the lastest upgrade it only shows one song from the album. I tried repurchasing it but it says that is already purchase but will not re download. Please help.

How do I get an album from Itunes that I have already downloaded to show the complete album again. After the last update it only shows one song. I tried to re purchase the whole album but it will not let me cause I already purchased it. Pease help

The large text size makes your post almost impossible to read.
Excessive use of bold or capitals (also) makes posts difficult to read.
You can drag most of the column headings left or right, or right-click on the header to turn columns on or off.
Once you've used File > Display Duplicates or Shift > File > Display Exact Duplicates you can use File > Display All or the Display All button at the bottom of the list to restore the display.

How to make library play whole album in order

Does anyone know how i can get my itunes library to play a whole album? I just want to sit here and listen to an album in my library I click on one song and once its played it randomly jumps somewhere else in the library this is so annoying it never used to do this.

Check the bottom left of the screen. If the little symbol with the two arrows crossing paths is blue, click it. That is the shuffle icon, your library must be set to shuffle.

Why can you just select an album and listen to it?

How do you isolate an album or artist in the new iTunes? (12.0) It is really frustrating when trying to listen to one album and I get the album in the list with all 1,025 other albums in my library.

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
... I assumed that if I played the 1st track, it would continue to play the rest of the album (as iTunes does on my Macs and PCs),...
You assumed correctly, and it should continue to play the rest of the album in order. Does this happen to all your albums. Have you tried restarting the tv.

Can i share existing albums of photos from my photo library with friends straight to icloud rather than having to create a new shared folder and then select the individual photos rather than a whole album??

Ok to clarify -
1. i want to go into my photos on my iphone 6.
2. create a new folder in shared folders.
3. Add an entire album of photos from my photo library rather than having to select individual photos.
4. Share with friends.
Surely the reason i have saved certain photos into albums already from my mac means i like the selection already. So i would like to just share the whole album rather than having to select all the individual photos from the album. Ive tried but maybe im being a doofus and missing something??????
Any help would be most appreciated.
thank you in advance
Kris

This is normal and is how Apple handles photos.
There are NOT duplicate photos.
Just as a song is in your itunes library and you can access that exact same song from a playlist, all photos synced to iphone are in the photo library and those exact same photos (NOT duplicates) can be accessed from the individual albums.
It is working exactly as it should.

Is ther a way to quickly delete whole albums in the music app in iOS 7?

I often download new music and need to remove old music to make space. I use Match, so I almost never sync with a computer these days, and even when I do I don't manage my music that way. The music app in iOS 7 seems to have no way to delete albums, just individual songs. This is very tedious when I want to remove one album and replace it with another album. Happily, I can still download a whole album with one tap. Has anyone found the secret to deleting albums?

it looks like they took out the "Show" option under Mail settings completely and added a Flag choice instead. Don't know why.

An easy way to delete a whole album without having to select it's tracks?

I have only been using iTunes for the past week after purchasing an iPod Nano, and am used to using Wmp 11. In Wmp 11, if you want to delete an album from your local library or dap, you can just right-click the album art and select 'delete'- job done.
However, in iTunes, I have found I have to make sure my Artist and Album categories are shown at the top of my track list (by clicking the 'eye' button at the bottom right), select the album so just that albums tracks are displayed, select one of the tracks, then Ctrl+A to highlight all the tracks, then press Del. Is there something I am missing here? I have checked the iTunes help, and can't see any other way of deleting a whole album without having to highlight all the albums tracks.
Any help would be appreciated.

Blimey! Why didn't I think of that? Especially as I knew to press the 'Del' key to delete highlighted tracks. I am assuming you can do the same if you want all an artists album collection removed too- highlight the artist and press 'Del'?
I think what it is, I am just used to right-clicking with Wmp11, and I am not used to using the keyboard for such tasks.
Thanks for the reply. I know now my question must seem rather silly.

Is there a way to download whole albums with full size photos from picasa to iPhoto without doing it one by one?

A number of people have sent me albums of photos in picasa. There doesn't seem to be a way to import the entire album into iphoto other than doing each photo one by one. Also, when I do each photo, it doesn't appear that I can copy it into a full size photo.
These are all albums with hundreds of photos. I think in the old iphoto you could subscribe to an RSS feed to get the whole album into iphoto but I am not sure you can do this anymore. Can you?
And if not, is there a way to copy whole albums in? It would be so time consuming to do them one by one!
I am using iphoto 9.5.1

You need to
1. Download the images to a folder on the desktop.
It may be possible to download an entire album at a time, but that's a question for a Picasa forum
2. Then import the folder to iPhoto.

How to select a whole album to play without selecting each track individually in iTunes 12.1.2 for Mac book pro OS 10.9.5

The only way that I am able to play a whole album is to select each track to play up next. This extremely tedious. There must be some way to select the whole album to play.

Hello Achates:
I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.
