Ipod duplicates an album, but itunes shows it only once.

Mi ipod touch has started to duplicate several albums, but my itunes only shows a single copy. The difference between the 2 albums is that one copy will have several tracks missing while the other will be complete. If I delete the one with missing tracks from the ipod it deletes those tracks from the other album, so I end up with just 2 or 3 tracks. I have tried deleting it in itunes and syncing the ipod and then re-adding the album to itunes. This is just a waste of time as it always re-syncs the ipod with both copies again. If anyone can help I would be greateful.

I have this exact same problem.. exactly.. and it breaks my balls.  I am not OCD about songs, but it's nice to be able to put all the songs of one artist on, without whole albums being repeated with other albums missing songs like you said.  I hope someone cleans this act up for us. Peace
UPDATE: I might have figured it out... randomly some songs in an album are marked as "part of compilation".  It turns out this is messing everything up! when you untick it and add them back into your ipod.. ORDER IS RESTORED!! YES!!! i was losing sleep with this ****. x

    I tried this way to set up hosts and restart my Mac but when I going to restore my iPod touch4 ,it still shows "This device isn't eligible for requested build"
    Thanks for replied me
    if anyone has same problem to open their hosts file,here is a short video and you have to type "sudo nano /private/etc/hosts" ,not "sudo nano/private/etc/hosts",remember there is a space between "nano_/private"
    This video helps a lot which I just found and it is much easier to fix this problem

    Try force rebooting it, hold down the power and home button for 10 seconds until the apple boot logo comes up. If that doesn't work, try rebooting your computer.

    Click on the words "Album by Artist/Year," one click at a time, and it will cycle through the possible options. 
    One of them is juts plain "Album."

    Cannot get iPad 2 charged beyond 1%.  All charging ports tried: AC adapter(s), USB 2 port on MacBook Pro. ITunes shows iPad only for a few seconds. iPad displays alternately: Apple logo, battery w/slim red band, then battery w/1% charged information. How can I get it to charge beyond 1% so I can proceed to troubleshoot?

    I have had your exact problem with my old 3GS, now I cannot even get it to turn on, I still see that it is supposed to be charging though, but it never charges any so it seems.
    I replaced the Lower Dock Connector Assembly back when it still charged while hooked to my PC, and it found it made no real difference.

  • ITunes shows Subscribe Only in price field.

    iTunes shows Subscribe Only in price field for my podcast. How can I change it to Free?

    It is still Free. The Subscribe label seems to appear if your episodes are encoded in AAC format instead of MP3. Perfectly legitimate thing to do, although it limits your audience to iTunes and a few other AAC capable players.

  • Ipod earased music but itunes shows that it's still on the ipod

    I synced my ipod just two days and listened to it yesterday. I downloaded a song on iTunes and when I went to sync it, my iPod was wiped clean but when I hook it up to iTunes, iTunes shows that al the songs are still on there, to include the new song. I didn't accidentally, or deliberately, erase or delete anything. Please advise.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsyncdelete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • ITunes successfully syncs iPod with no errors, but nothing shows up on iPod

    I plug in my new 80g iPod to by synced, and iTunes "successfully" syncs the iPod.
    I look on my iPod to see if the songs were transfered and my iPod is still completely blank!
    So I plug in my iPod again to see if I can find a problem, and the "Capacity" bar on the bottom of the iPod screen in iTunes shows all my music and video file space as 'Other' data.
    What is going on here?
    I tried to restore the iPod and the same thing happens.

    Hi!
    I got the same problem since today.
    My Ipod contains 74,37Gb in total and Itunes says 56,6 PHOTOS, 61,66 OTHER and 12,66 FREE SPACE. But this afternoon I saw I had about 700 Mb free space. I don't know what happened today, but I can only see the PHOTOS on my Ipod, no music and no video's.
    Can't find the solution...
    Best regards,
    JJ

  • WANT DUPLICATEs in Playlist, but iTunes DOES NOT TRANSFER THE DUPES

    *How do I get iTunes to transfer the EXACT PLAYLIST, JUST AS I MADE IT, WITH DUPLICATES to the iPhone?*
    When I try to put a Playlist with duplicates on my iPhone - iTunes automatically removes all the duplicates except the last one. On a Playlist I have duplicated and put the same short interlude sound file between each of the songs. I can play that playlist fine on iTunes on my computer - i.e. it plays all the dupes in the correct place.
    iTunes also removes the dupes in the Folder view on my computer when I've put a Playlist with dupes into a folder with multiple playlists. They still exist correctly if I click on the individual playlist, but if I click on the Folder to view all the playlists in it together, it has removed all my dupes from the combined view folder playlist.

    Hi Scott,
    When I sync a playlist with duplicates they show up on the iPhone.
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and iPhone software.

  • HT2905 same album but iTunes have its songs on two separate albums

    I have Sting's If On a Winter's Night album which has 16 songs but for some reason, song number one is on an album and the other 15 songs on another album. Why is iTunes showing the same album twice and the first on one the other 15 on the other?
    All 16 songs are on the same Windows folder.
    I tried to delete the one with the first song but iTunes replies that the song will de deleted from iCloud. Tried to move that first song into the album where the other 15 songs are but it seems not to be possible.
    What is happening here?
    I'm really getting stressed out about this.
    Regards.

    That was my first thought. Copy/paste artist name and album name but nothing worked, I continue to have to album covers there, one with 1 song and the otyher with 15 songs.
    The problem seems to be also in iCloud.
    Deleted physical files from my computer and now I only have access to the album using iCloud but even there I can see two album covers, the same way I had with the physical files.
    Does this means that the problems resides in iCloud?
    I then put the folder where the album is back into iTunes folder, added the files to the library and continue to have song 2 till 15 on one album cover and song 1 continues to be on the second album cover where I have song one from the physical file and the same song 1 but this one has a cloud icon for download.
    What is happening here?
