In iTunes a bunch of songs show up under the wrong artist no matter what I do
My iTunes library has an odd glitch - there's a bunch of songs that show up under the group "a-ha" despite having nothing to do with a-ha. They don't seem to have anything else in common, either. None of them has an album artist listed and they are all stored the same way on my hard drive (in a folder for the artist and sub-folder for the album). Everything shows up correctly on my iPod, but nothing I can do puts them under the correct artist in iTunes on my desktop. So for example, iTunes doesn't show The Big Bopper as an artist but if I go into Artist: a-ha I find "Hello Baby" as an album and Chantilly Lace is in it. But when I click on info for that track it shows The Big Bopper as the artist, no mention of a-ha in any field I can find. Does anyone have a clue what this is about? I've tried adding the mis-filed artists' folders to the library again but noithing changes.
Possibly something unwanted in the Sort Artist or Sort Album Artist fields. See Grouping tracks into albums for details.

Calendar List view shows entries under the wrong date
I just upgraded to iOS4 and finding that my calendar entries are appearing under the wrong date in the calendar list view when I am viewing two calendars.
- List view is ok when viewing 1 calendar
- Day and Month views are ok at all times (ie: viewing single or multiple calendars)
- I have 2 Exchange accounts
- Calendar entries are appearing in the correct order, but under the incorrect date heading.
- When I intially added the Exchange accounts the calendar list view was fine at first (I could see both calendars correctly in list view) but after a short time later it became screwed up.
Anyone else experience this?Same problem here since my upgrade to iOS4 - but I only noticed today.
I have 3 calendars set up:
Gmail (Exchange)
UK Holidays (iCal)
Birthdays
The exchange calendar is always wrong but the other two are correct when my exchange calendar is switched off.
It has mucked up my scheduling a bit for the next month. I only became suspicious when I noticed the Scottish Bank Holiday Monday at the beginning of August was showing on FRIDAY, 30th of July! -
I put songs onto my IPhone 4, and they show up under the "On This Phone" section in itunes, but when I go to play the songs on my phone, they aren't there. How can I fix this?
When you look at your iPhone, are you looking in the Music app or in the iTunes app? Be sure you are looking in the Music app, and look in the Songs category. If your songs are not here, you may want to try syncing your information again through iTunes. To do this, uncheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync in the bottom right corner of iTunes, and then recheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync again.
I hope this helps! -
How do I show my iCloud purchases in iTunes, but prevent it from showing duplicates of the songs I already have on my computer? There are duplicates of essentially everything!
I would like to show my available songs that I could download if I want, however the ones I've already downloaded to my computer are showing up still, which results in duplicates of everything (one on my computer, one in the cloud)No.
Are the photos in an iTunes backup? If so then:

Bought new iMac & moved (or thought I had) all of my music from the old PC to the new iMac. Have discovered several hundred songs are orphaned on old PC; I can "see" them with both machines turned on & iTunes open. "Missing" songs show in iMac itunes Shared folder. How do I move them all so I can then & retire the old PC?
From things you are saying, such as "shared folder" and having both machines on, it doesn't sound to me like you truly moved the whole iTunes collection.

do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in
iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

Why are some of my songs showing up under # instead of first letter on my iPod?
Kinda hard to explain so I'll add a picture.
Anyhow, some songs on my iPod are showing up under the # category instead of being under the letter that the song title starts with. Anyone know why? I thought it was ones that I uploaded from physical CDs that I bought, but it's also happening with some songs that I buy from iTunes/Amazon/etc. too!
Its really frustrating because if I want to listen to a certain song, I either have to look through the # list if it isn't categorized right, or I have to click artist and search through that way.
Example: 'Dirty Country' should be under the 'D' category, not '#'Hi ...well...I tried what you said or atleast I ATTEMPTED TO:) ??? and I dont know that It worked..it still didnt do what I thought it would and yes, I will admit your advice sounded great and if ....and I do mean IF i were a bit more TECHY I think it would have worked great..lol ...its not your advice to the solution to my problem.....I am actually unable to figure out exactly if I am doing it right or not..so I will continue to try it again > and see if it will work out...and if you have any other advice on the problem Im having I sure would appreciate it....I just wish that I were a bit more Techy so that I could pull off a "what is probably a simple fix for smart people like you..but I am so not with it and I just look at it as a MESS and I dont know really still how to fix it...but I do appreciate your time..and for you insight and trying to help me...I just dont think Im doing it right and or doing something to it thats causing these issues to still happen...but I look online and it seems that he double songs seemingly are fine...they are most all kinda gone away..but when I did the hard reset..turn off like you said and did the whole turned off the Itunes Match app...and then turned phone back on and turned Match back on...songs on my phone...STILL THERE...:( I D K????? so thanks and if any more advice ? It would be appreciated...and or if you see me as a lost cause:) lol..then I will just DEAL WITH IT and the DOUBLED OR TRIPLED SONGS ON MY IPHONE 6plus ......but you are appreciate ....Have a great day...maybe will hear back from you ? but if not...Still....THANKS:) !!!

When I rip a cd in itunes, then go to use another program, then come back to itunes, the cd stops ripping and the cd doesn't show up in the side bar anymore. What's going on here? I am running the x64 version of itunes in Windows 7.

My itunes match has several songs under the wrong album title
My iTunes match on my laptop has several songs under the wrong album title. Is there anyway to correct this?
Hey rehartline,
Are you using any 3rd party applications to name or organize files in your iTunes library?
Try re-creating your iTunes Library, then sync the iPod again.
