Incorrect artist name for all songs by that artist

Recently something weird has happened to my music library on my iPhone 5S (iOS 8.2 before, but I've updated to 8.3 and still the issue persists). All the songs by a particular artist have the artist name listed wrongly. For example, I have about 50 Katy Perry songs from her 3 albums, and all of them are listed as "Katy Perry & Snoop Dogg", which is, by the way, the artist name for ONLY California Gurls. Funny thing is, the artist names display correctly on iTunes on my MacBook Pro. I've checked the info for the songs, and the names are correct under both Details and Sorting. This happens for a few other artists as well.
I've tried deleting the songs from my iPhone and re-syncing them back, still the same. I've tried changing the artist, album artist info for the songs, doesn't help. I've even re-synced my entire music library to my iPhone but that didn't work either.
Probably a bug but is there a workaround or a fix for this?

UPDATE!!!
Turns out that deleting glitchy albums from the phone and then re-syncing via Home computer's iTunes worked!
It just takes a bit longer to change over to the proper artist names!!!
YAYY!!!!
So deleting music from iPhone Music Library and then going into your home iTunes Library and re-syncing/adding it to your iphone or device while it is plugged in via USB!

  • Unusual option for all songs in "Various Artists" albums.

    In iTunes 11, for any song in a 'various artists' album, I get a 'Go to "Primal Scream" option against an icon with a singer at a microphone - any thoughts on why this would be?  When I click it, nothing related to "Primal Scream" happens.

    let Apple know via _*iTunes feedback*_.

  • Not all songs from an artist are available in the artist tab as some songs are from compilation albums. is their any fix for this?

    In the Artist tab, I am unable to see all the songs I have for that artist under their name. It looks like the artist tab is organised by album artist so therefore any artist I have on a compilation album can only be found under various artists. Is there any way around this, cause its the only thing thats ******* me off about the new ITunes.

    I used to have this problem.
    First, you need to go back on iTunes
    you need to go to each of the songs that are having this problem
    Click the album so all the songs drop down
    Right click the songs that have this problem
    Click ' Get info '
    Click the tab that says " info '
    The box that says ' album artist ' should probably be empty (correct me if I'm wrong)
    Click it and type the artist of the entire album, NOT the songs guest artist
    as such,
    ARTIST
    JAY-Z Feat. Justin Timberlake
    ALBUM ARTIST
    JAY-Z
    These should be separate for each artist
    If you write the same album artists for each song by that artist, all the songs should be on 1 album

  • Changed the artist name of all of my iTunes library by mistake

    Found an album that listed the artist name as mixed. I selected the songs in that album to change the artist name and wound up setting the artist name for all of the songs in my library to that one artist. I was able to recover from a time machine backup, but the information on the cloud using iTunes match is not correct. I have since then signed out of my account until I hear back from Apple. Any clues? No undo.....

    Backup drive?
    Subscribe to iTunes Match?
    If neither of the above and you don't have the CD and can't find your tracks on the computer then they you're stuck.  A file recovery utility will cost $100, plus another $100 for an external drive to which to resue the files, and may not even work.  You can buy a lot of CDs for $200.

  • How do I get the volume on my ipod classic to the same level for all songs?  Some are louder than others.

    How do I get the volume on my ipod classic to the same level for all songs?  Some songs are a lot lower than others.

    Coverflow in iTunes is sorted by Album Artist whereas coverflow on the iPod classic is sorted by Artist. Unfortunately, there is no way to set this on your iPod. This is such a fumble on Apple's part that I'm beginning to think they're becoming another Microsloth with buggy firmware and products.

  • Artist name for compilation albums (No album for artist alone present)

    When I have a compilation album, fe Route 66 (including a song from Steppenwolf) and a Steppenwolf album (Steppenwolf : 16 greatest hits), i can see Steppenwolf in the 'artist view', and see the 2 albums.
    When an artist only appears on a compilation album, but no individual album, the artist is not detectable in the artist view (except when using the search function).
    Can this be solved ?
    Thx in advance
    Jan

    THANK YOU!
    I see the Album Artist tag from Windows file properties but not from within my tag editing programs.  Granted, I've had these since probably 2003-2004ish, perhaps the Album Artist tag wasn't around at that time?  I'm really unsure, I just know that they do not exist with any of my editors.
    I highlighted all songs in the album folder, right clicked, hit properties, and set Album Artist for all songs.  They now all show up under album art entry.
    This problem has been killing me for months and I have a couple albums I've been missing on my iPod because of it.  All is good now, thanks again!

  • Artist name shows under song name in itunes

    in my itunes library, in the artist view, i go to the artist i want to listen to, then all of albums show up, some albums, have the artist name under the song, i look at the info of the entire album(songs on that album) and the artist and album artist are the same(copy and paste both sections) Songs that have artist name under song, also have the same artist on other songs that don't have the artist name under song, When i go to my music, i right click on songs that have artist name under song in itunes, and it also looks the same as the ones that don't, I ACTUALLY LIKE IT BETTER IF THE NAME OF THE ARTIST APPEARS UNDER THE SONG, it looks nicer

    When you say adding your music again to your iTunes library, do you mean importing again from your cds, or have you used some other method to get the music from your iPod into iTunes?

  • ITunes Music art stays the same for all songs

    This just happened after the update before the most recent one. When I play my iTunes music through the ATV, the artwork in the big screen for Now Playing screen does not update. It shows one album for all songs. As shown below. All songs have the Rolling Stones artwork.  I did a complete reset to factory settings a month ago and that fixed it, but now it is happening again.
    The weird part is when I go to the home screen, I see the correct artwork - ACDC up in the left corner under the Now Playing window. It is only when it is expanded is when I have the problem.
    This problem happens when I play both ITunes Match through the cloud, and my music through me iTunes library on my Pc.
    I

    That's what iTunes -> Preferences -> Playback -> Sound Check does - equalizes the volume across tracks to provide a more-even playback.

  • Editing the Query name for all reports in PRD.

    Dear All,
    I have created 25 reports using Query Designer.We have moved all the reports to BI Production. And Clients are using these reports using the Tool Bex Analyser.
    Every time they are navigating through open Query -> Info Areas -> Data targets and Query.
    Instead of going this way, is there any other way to Open a query easily.
    And they wants to modify the Report name and the Technical name for all the reports. Can we able to edit the Query name for all reports, or do i need to go for SAVE AS for all querys.
    Pls Suggest.
    Thanks,
    Ram

    Hi Ram,
    1. For the first question; if it user specific query then ask the users to save them at the FAVORITES so that there is no need to go to the dataprovider specific.
    Or they can create the reports as favorites user menu screen of that particular user.
    2. In order to change the technical name and description of the queries goto RSZC t-code> give the source and target infoprovider as same> select queries>click on the reports>click on transfer selections-->
    Then you get a screen to change the description and technical name.
    But this is pertained to Infoprovider level.
    You can see all the reports on the infoprovider (cube/ods).
    Hope you understood.
    Regards,
    Ravi Kanth

  • Can I change the settings for ALL songs in iTunes with 1 command?

    I'd like to set the volume for all songs to +100. Can I just select all songs and then change it to +100?

    Highlight all the songs in your library (ctrl+a, edit-->select all, etc.)
    Now right click one of the songs, making sure that all remain highlighted, and go to get info. Click Yes to the message that pops up. You should be able to adjust the volume in that window. Click OK when you are done. The volume should now be adjusted for all songs.

  • Getting system names of all the nodes that compose a cluster

    I need a way to get the names (weblogic.system.name) of all the servers that compose a cluster from a JSP or a servlet. Can anyone help ?
              System: Weblogic 5.10sp10 on Solaris with SDK 1.3.0
              [att1.html]
              

              Using WLS 5.1 internal APIs, you can do this by the following:
              weblogic.cluster.ClusterManager clusterManager = weblogic.cluster.ClusterManager.theOne();
              com.sun.java.util.collections.Collection c = clusterManager.getClusterMembers();
              weblogic.cluster.ClusterMemberInfo[] infos =(weblogic.cluster.ClusterMemberInfo[])
              c.toArray(new weblogic.cluster.ClusterMemberInfo[0]);
              if (infos != null) {
              for (int i=0; i < infos.length; i++) {

  • Extract schema/metadata - names for all tables and attributes

    Hi, I am quite new to Oracle DB (only been doing dev mostly with sqlserver before). Is there a way to extract schema (names for all tables and attributes) for 10g and 11g in application code (either java or .net) or pl/sql?
    Thank you,
    -Tony

    There are built in views that start with DBA_, ALL_, and USER_. All means all the user can see, user means all the user has, and dba means everything, which generally means the same as the others plus an owner. So you can desc user_tables to see what-all that view has, then select columns from the view with ordinary sql. See the doc set for all the views available, interesting ones are ...views, ...objects, ...tab_cols and so forth.
    There are also built in procedures for getting metadata, google for details.
    Many tools have easy GUI's for this too. EM has ways on the administration screen to get to various objects, and then you can show the ddl. Maybe sqldeveloper has something too.

  • Import tables using same file name for all tables

    hi,
    We are using oracle 11.2.0.3.0, we have taken export of multiple tables in schema, unfortunately in exp command we have mention same file name for all the tables, now it has created one file for all export but the size of that file shows that all the tables included in it , when we try to import the tables only last table mention in export command is imported for other tables it hangs, example of code show below.
    Is there any way to import the remaining tables.
    exp system file =exp05042013.dmp tables=gr.table1
    exp system file =exp05042013.dmp tables=gr.table2
    exp system file =exp05042013.dmp tables=gr.table3

    Hi,
    You can use as :
    exp username@database tables=table1,table2 file=tabledata.dmpDid you have any RMAN full backup?
    Why you are not recover crash database?

  • Retrieving user detail, group name for all users

    Hi,
    How can I retrieve User name, email, authentication, user group name
    for all users using SDK.
    It is possible to create this report in webi or CR?
    Thank you for reply,
    Gregor

    Use the following code to retrieve this information:
    IInfoObjects users = oInfoStore.query("select * from ci_systemobjects where si_kind='user'");
    for (int i=0; i<users.size(); i++)
             IUser user = (IUser)users.get(i);
             // user.getTitle(); for user name
             // user.getFullName(); for user's full name
             //  user.getEmailAddress(); for user's email address
             //  for authentication type:
             IUserAliases alises = user.getAliases();
             for(int j=0; j<aliases.size();j++)
                       IUserAlias alias = alises.get(j);
                       // alias.getAuthentication() for authentication associated with this alias, since same user can have more than 1 authentication. e.g. Enterprise and Ldap.
             // for user group memberships:
             java.util.Set groups = user.getGroups();        
             // the groups Set object will contain SI_ID of all the user groups that this uses is member of. You need to query by the SI_ID of the usergroup to get the group names.
    //  e.g.
    //    oInfoStore.query("select si_id, si_name from ci_systemobjects where si_kind='usergroup' and si_id in (a,b,c....)");
    where a,b,c are the SI_IDs of the usergroups.
    To create a report based on the above fetched data, there are several methods such as:
    you can use Java resultset where in you create the report structure in designer and push the data at runtime using java result set objects. Another way is to push this info in Excel or Access and design your report based on that excel\access.

    Even I cant believe this is happening again! i'm once again asking for help with my account.  Since im very sick I ask that u look into my account and read the hell verizon has put me through and assist ending the hell once and for all even if that means ending my contract, i just want the hell over. I went into my bill tonight and the mess was still there I paid $110. that's what I owe

    I guess I spoke too soon!  I really can't believe this nightmare is not over yet! My account is still wrong.  The credit that I was due totaled $63.00  I am looking at a message on my phone saying that $21.01 was credited which makes my balance $219.72.  I received a text the following day that says, I processed your credit of $30.00 and your new balance $216.73 how is that possible?  None of the late fees were credited and the amount due for my monthly charges are wrong.  Before any changes were made to my data plan back in Nov. My monthly charges were $140.00, I needed my hot spot back and i was told that the hot spot will increase my bill $10 for each phone that totals $20.  The customer rep that change my data plan at that time also gave me a credit of $20 to compensate for the increase until I had time to talk with customer service about the mix-up with my Hot spot. I originally had the hot spot, but the rep that change my plan almost a year prior told me nothing was changing except I was getting more for less money.  I explained to that rep that I need my hot spot 4 times a year...and I don't want my plan to have any changes. To verify what I'm telling u check my account and see that I called from Albany New York wanting to know where my hot spot was and I was told I didn't have the hot spot on my account since the last data change!  I lost money once again due to the verizon rep's.  so my current data plan the rep promised would increase $20 which makes my monthly charges that were $140 prior to the change $160 after the hot spot was returned to my account.  Then I was given a $12 credit per month for 12 months because of so many mistakes made to my account so with that $12 credit my monthly charges should $148 + surcharges + taxes and that's not what I see. I do know this much right now my account is in such a shambles I can hardly see the light at the end if there is an end!  I need real help!
