IPod not showing some songs on it

Ok...
Lets say I have a bunch of songs by a band called Rehab... All the ID3 tag info is filled out about them... Artist name, song name, Album, Song track, etc etc...
Well there's a few Rehab songs that I don't have the Album field filled in.. It's just blank, indicating there's no CD it was released on.... The other songs are tagged as being from the CD "Graffiti the World"
I go into my iPod --> Music --> Artists --> Rehab .... ***.. It goes straight into "Graffiti the World." All the songs that don't have an Album tag on them aren't even showing up... There's no ALL > button or anything.. It just shows the songs from the CD "Graffiti the World" and not the other ones I don't have filled in...
It's the case for other Artists to, that I only have as having one CD and non-marked songs.. It seems as if I have to have at least two different albums marked in the ID3 tags for the artist just for it to give me the ALL > button/menu... Any clue?
Below is a link to what my iTunes looks like...

I'm about to do that, but I would prefer not ya know? This should be one of the things that's either solved in an update or solved before releasing the product...
Didn't know if an update fixed it or not, but I just wanted to see if anyone else has had the problem or knew a true fix to it..
Thanks for the quick reply.

  • Ipod not showing some songs

    so i got a 30 gig ipod today and loaded all my music through itunes. i'm starting to notice that for certain artists i'm not able to access all of the music i've loaded. it appears that if i only have music from one album loaded for a given artist, the ipod automatically takes me to that album view when i select the artist. the problem is if i have other tracks for that artist for which i haven't specified an album, it still skips directly to that album view. so the other tracks are effectively hidden. if i browse the ipod through itunes, i can see that these tracks are actually loaded. is anyone else having this problem?

    I'm having the same problem with my 60GB. The couple songs that have an album listed show up, but none of the songs by the same artist that don't have an album listed. It just skips right past those to the album list, without the 'All' option. I can get to the songs with no album spec'ed through the Music...Songs...menus, but I always browse by Artist. Now it seems I can't. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Spotify not showing some songs

    My Spotify app on iPhone 4s is not showing my songs that have numbers in front of them such as 1Train, but all other songs are there. In the place of those songs there is just a black box. The only things I've tried are restarting my phone, re-adding the songs, and deleting and re-installing the app. Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • Artist Album info not showing some songs

    I have a 30g fifth gen iPod, with about 4800 songs on it, running iTunes 6.0.5.20 on Windows XP SP2.
    When I first got it, a lot of my files had bad data, so I cleared out all the info except for the Artist and Track, and then manually corrected all the data to make it work. What this means, is all of my songs previously didn't have any album info, and when I'd go to the Artists menu and select one, it would go to a list of albums where "All >" was the only option, and then that would display all of the songs for that artist.
    Recently, I bought a few new CDs and I was ripping them to put them on my iPod, and now all the other songs that I had from those artists before won't show up under the Artist section, because it skips straight to the CD I put on rather than giving me a list of albums to choose from.
    I know it's not a problem with my tags, because they all worked fine before I put these new albums on there.
    Am I gonna be forced to include "dummy" album info in some songs?

  • 5th gen ipod not showing all songs for artists....

    I just updated to 1.1 about a week ago, so i am not sure if this issue was present in 1.0 or not.
    when looking at the artist list on my ipod, i noticed that if I go into a artist and that artist has only one album listed, it goes directly into that album list. Therefore not showing your other songs that you may have by the same artist because dont have the album name. Has anyone else had this issue??

  • IPod Nano skips album selection, not showing some songs

    Hello,
    recently I tried to use my ipod with winamp since it offers support for ipod, but since then, when I select any artist with an album and singles it ignores the singles, skipping directly to the songs in the album, and I really can't listen to that singles through the "artist>album>song" selection, but patiently I can find then togheter with all the other songs, by selecting directly "songs>all" in the menu...
    How may I fix this?
    thanks a lot!

  • I've upgraded my pc and now Im getting an error message when Im trying to sync my ipod saying I have two itunes libraries. The library thats there is only showing some songs and it's not uploading songs Ive just bought.

    I've upgraded my pc and now Im getting an error message when Im trying to sync my ipod saying I have two itunes libraries. The library thats there is only showing some songs and it's not uploading songs Ive just bought.

    You seem to have tried everything, and you say it's syncing fine on your Dad's iMac, so I assume, you have also  done a Disk Diagnostic from an earlier post by tt2 and conclude that your iPod Hardisk is good.
    You don't have to use it as a heavy paperweight, the problem is only using your Windows 7 machine for syncing.
    In your troubleshooting steps, did you try to use another High-Speed USB 2.0 port, USB controller resource are very scarce, so if you use other USB devices, while syncing your iPod, it may just freeze.
    Windows have a bad reputation for device conflict, so better don't connect other  USB devices, while syncing, better sync it while disconnected from Internet, stop antivirus just before you go to bed.
    Have a nice day!

  • Ipod does not show my songs, neither does Itunes but says there is 10gigs

    My ipod or my itunes does not show my songs, but they both say i have 10 gigs on the ipod.. any ideas what is going wrong and how i can fix it?

    Try restoring your iPod. Just be aware that restoring will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings, so if you have songs on your iPod that aren't on iTunes you will lose them if you have no back up. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • Ipod not showing up on itunes or my computer.it recharges when i connect it

    Ipod not showing up on itunes or my computer.it recharges when i connect it but it dosent show up under devices so i cant sync any music!!the screen on the ipod would usually say "connecting"or"do not disconnect"but it dosent say that anymore!!Ive been trying to fix it for DAYS but i cant find a good enough solution.PLZ HELP!!(p.s. i have a 4th generation nano)

    Hey there,
    A file or some files may have become corrupt somehow during connecting or disconnecting the unit. Try putting it into Disk Mode and see if that helps. To put it into Disk Mode, hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears. When it does, immediately press and hold the Center an Play/Pause buttons until you see a confirmation that your iPod has been put into Disk Mode.
    If you are able to do this, it may be a good idea to restore the iPod to its original settings. Keep in mind that by doing this you are erasing all the music and files from your iPod so make sure they are backed up on your computer somewhere. More on restoring your iPod can be found in the Apple document below.
    Hope this helps.

  • Nokia E-5 music player does not show all songs. Th...

    my Nokia E-5 music player does not show all songs. The filemanager does though. have tried every damn thing that i could, from the internet. no solution yet. Nokia wont address it. any solutions? please dont ask me to refersh my music player. nokia now manufactures stupid phones, instead of smartphones..
    can any one help, friends? the last option i have to sell it off and wait for an HTC qwerty mango 7.5 phone

    I perfectly understand that this is frustrating and of course Nokia should adress this.
    I do not work for Nokia so maybe you could contact them. I see you have been to a care centre and reset it, but hopefully by contacting them by email they can log the issue for further work on firmwares?
    I hope this sorts out. Have you btw, tried with some other memory card?
    If it's not too much of a struggle, try backing up everything you have on it and format it, then reboot the phone which will recreate the needed folders and then drag and drop your stuff back to it and check again.
    Hope you get it solved mate!

  • Pls help my iPod is showing some symbols

    Hi ... few minutes back, when i checked my iPod its showing some signs, something it has never done before.
    From the main menu screen to any other screen i go to, it is constantly showing '2 blue arrows' (the rewind sign) at the top left side of the screen.
    Then while playing songs, it shows both the repeat sign n shuffle sign, sometimes its either one. I havent activated either shuffle nor repeat.
    Can anybody please help me? Is my iPod getting screwed up?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Try resetting your iPod...

    Also, go to settings-->shuffle and make sure it is off. Do this for repeat as well.
    See if it works now.

    Im having a similar problem since i upgraded to IOS5, ive read on other forums that some people's music hasnt even showed up, so they did a soft reset (turned it off and on again) which worked for them.
