IPod Classic can't tell the difference between "Greatest Hits" albums...

This is a strange problem, but my iPod Clasic seems to have trouble telling the difference between different albums with the title "Greatest Hits." It seems to only happen when I use CoverFlow, but when I select an album entitled Greatest Hits, it will show the list of songs, and it will include every song from every "Greatest Hits" album I have(meaning every album entitled "Greatest Hits"--albums that are greatest hits albums but have a different title aren't included).
I thought the problem might be that some them had the "Album Artist" section left blank, but I filled them all in correctly, and it's still happening.
What should I do?

All albums with the same title are grouped together in Cover Flow, Greatest Hits is just the most likely example to make itself obvious. There at least three possible workarounds.
*Workaround #1* Change album title to *Album - Album Artist* whenever the same album title is used by more than one album artist.
*Workaround #2* Append different numbers of spaces to the album title of different albums whenever the same album title is used by more than one album artist.
*Workaround #3* Give each album a different value for *Sort Album*.

  • In ical, how can you tell the difference between a meeting invite and email?

    When you send a meeting invite in ical, does the recipient receive a different icon in their inbox to differentiate from an email?

    For service stock you can't tell the difference between a new iPad and a refurbished one. Both will come in a plain brown box with the same pattern in model numbers. If you mean between a refurbished one and one new at retail, then other than the obvious difference in packaging, I've read that the model number on refurbished units starts with the letter "F", though I've not confirmed that.

  • Can anyone tell the difference between USB 3.0 and 2.0?

    I have both a 8GB flashdrive 3.0 and 2.0. I got the 3.0 at office depot for $8.00 and 2.0 for the same price at best buy. I honestly can't tell the difference between the two. They both seem to be the same in speed. Is there really a difference?

    This is an interesting subject, I just recalled a MacWorld podcast I was listening to when the 3.0s were first hitting the market. A guest on the podcast was saying to think of it like a 'bottle neck' not so much as speed. With the 3.0 you can push more information through at any one time. So in the case of the hd movie senario, if you had multiple movies transfering at one time the 3.0 would be a lot faster than a 2.0.

    How can i tell the differance between chargers

    Believe it or not, they are identified right on the chargers themselves.  Unfortunately, the font is real small and the print is gray on a white background.  It's nearly impossible to read.  You need a bright light and a magnifying glass!
    After determining which is which, you might wish to put your own paper labels on them.

  • How can I tell the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display and the old MacBook Pro with retina display by looking

    I'm just wondering the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display which was just released in October 2013 and the old MacBook Pro with retina display.

    Thank you for the reply! As you said they looked exactly the same, so I'm not able to tell the differences just by looking, right? I'm thinking to buy a new 13-inch MacBook Pro with retina display, but I'm not buying the MacBook in Apple Store, I'm buying it in other shops, how can know whether they are not selling me the old model of MacBook Pro with retina display?

  • How can I tell the difference between Academic and non-academic version

    I would like to purchase Logic Express on Ebay. The Apple part number is
    MA338Z/A
    How can I tell if this is the Academic or non-academic version?
    THanks

    ok, but there is no way to tell from the Apple part #?
    I thought that the /A might mean Academic but it seems this same part number applies to the non-academic version:
    MA338Z/A

  • How can I tell the difference between a 7320 CE and a 4630 CDM ?

    Hello, I have just taken delivery of what is supposed to be a 7320 Content Engine, however, there is a slight problem, th grill at the front states that it is
    a CDM4630!!!! A look at the rear shows the same slots/config as a 7320 and
    is labeled as a ce7320. A show version states that it is a ce7320-4.2.1.
    It looks like the wrong front panel has been applied but is there a sure fire
    way of confirming this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Darren

    From your comments, I guess that the device is a CE-7320 with a front panel mismatch. You could use the data sheets that you get with the product to verify the slots and since the show version indicates that it a CE-7320, I believe it should be one. The product overview is available at:

  • How do you tell the difference between a genuine USB to Lightning cable? I spoke to two different operators at Apple Support. One said that it has Designed in California Made in China and the serial number on it, and the other operator said it didn't

    How can you tell the difference between a genuine Apple lead and the cheap, or sometimes not so cheap imitations? I spoke with two people at Apple Support - one said that it has Designed in California Made in China and the serial number stamped on it, and the other said it didn't. Come on guys, how are we supposed to tell if you can't? I'd really like to know how to identify my lead amongst my daughter's gazillion fakes?

    All my cables are genuine either with the devices or from Apple retail Store I have never found a serial number on any regardless of which length ,I have all three lengths
    In fact they have nothing printed at all only a USB logo at relevant end

  • Can't tell the difference anymor

    A few weeks ago i bought a record player and i was having fun listening to some 33's and 45's and then i just decided after that to get an mp3 player (got a Zen Xtra 30GB yeah!) I love this thing except when i have to charge it, but that doesn't mean much to me. Anyway i guess i just can't tell the difference between how a record sounds, a CD player sounds, or an MP3 player sounds. It sounds good, but i really can't tell anymore how the quality of sound is different... So anyway if someone could explain why all 3 of these media's all play flawlessly with hardly any difference in sound that be nice. On a side note:
    CREATIVE Rules!!!

    Some people can tell the difference between a 92kbps mp3 and a 64kbps mp3 through cheapass headphones on a highway. Others need amazing headphones in a soundproof room. Still others can't tell the difference between mono and stereo. Empirically speaking, there IS a difference. The question is, can YOU tell whether there is one or not?
    If you can't tell the difference, it means that there IS none, as far as you're concerned. It doesn't matter if other people can hear one or not. You wouldn't go spending $200 on a bottle of wine if you can't taste the difference between that bottle and a $0 one, would you?

  • How to tell the difference between 10w and 12w?

    We have:
    2 iPhone 5s
    1 iPad
    1 iPad 2
    1 iPad (4) with Retina
    I know that the iPhones use the smaller 5w charger, but how do I tell the difference between the iPad/iPad 2's 10w charger and the iPad 4's 12w charger? They look exactly the same.
    The iPad 4 takes forever to charge, so I want to make sure I am using the 12w - and I don't want to damage the older iPads by accidentally using the 12w.
    Thanks!

    Read the fine print on the charger. My iPad 2 10W charger says 5.1V 2.1A. A 12W charger should have a higher number for A.
    You can use the iPad 4 charger on your other devices, without damage, to charge them faster.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • If unboxed how could you tell the difference between refurbished imac and new imac?

    If unboxed how could you tell the difference between refurbished imac and new imac?

    Besides all of that, you can purchase Apple Care which will extend your warranty to 3 years just like you can on a brand new iMac.
    If you're considering a "refurbished" iMac, buy it ONLY from Apple.  I believe it's your best bet.
