Ipod showing Unknown Album issue

So I have an Ipod 5th gen. There's an issue whenever I try to add songs onto my Ipod. I open Itunes on my computer, click Ipod, then click On This Ipod, and add the songs I want. So everything i going right up until the album part. I right click a song and then click Get Info, afterward I edit/change the name, album, and artist. Once I have done all that, and press enter, i can see the syncing symbol on my ipod, then the song appears. Everything about the song is correct except for the album name. Even though I've already set an album name for this song on the computer, my Ipod still shows it as Unknown Album. Please help

  • Why is my iPod showing an album twice when it's only listed once in iTunes?

    When I go into my iPod, I have Mudvayne's album "The End of All Things to Come" listed twice.  Neither one has the full track listing.  When I connect it to iTunes, it only shows once in my music library on the iPod.

    Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?

  • Coverflow shows multiple unknown albums

    Coverflow shows an unknown album for each artist instead of one for all of them. I own the first gen ipod touch if that helps.

    iTunes & the iPod may have inconsistent behaviour when it comes to empty values. If you want all tracks with an unknown album value to group together as if one album then the best thing would be to select them all, set the Album field to "Unknown Album" and on the Options tab set Compilation to Yes.
    See my previous post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums for more on organising your library and working around some of the quirks of iTunes/iPod.

  • Album view in iTunes 11 unusable because singles showing as "Unknown Album"

    I have lots of "singles" in my collection (ie mp3s with nothing in the "album" field) as well as lots of albums.
    Because of this, the "albums" view in iTunes 11 is virtually unusable, as 80% of the music shows as "Unknown Album" and prevents me from just browsing genuine albums.
    Is there a ways to fix this so that the "albums" view only contains tracks that really are from albums?  Nothing I've tried (e.g. flagging them as "part of a compilation") seems to make a difference.
    thanks,

    Thanks - I have already done sonething similar with a number of smart-playlists myself, but this is a poor workaround and means the pre-built views in iTunes are useless.  It's also something else to think about every time I import a new song so that it doesn't get lost.
    Like lots of people, I've got loads of singles, mixes, radio shows and other music that is not groupable by album, and I find it ridiculous that iTunes hinders, rather than helps, to manage this..  Coupled with the appalling new search functionality this new version makes it harder than ever to navigate my music collection.

  • Has anyone upgraded the Ironport ESA to 8.5.6-074 and had the issues of Raid status showing unknown?

    Has anyone upgraded the Ironport ESA to 8.5.6-074 and had the issues of Raid status showing unknown? After we upgraded our appliances we are having issues with our ESA appliances showing the RAID status as unknown. When we reported the issue to CISCO we were updated there were no issues reported at all. Could anyone please confirm if you have experienced the same issue. 

    You should see OPTIMAL - meaning the drives in the C170 are in good health/status:

    How do I get the ipod nano 7th generation to only show the album artwork? the volume control, info bar and album artwork shows whenever a song is playing.

    Hi TheGuru146,
    It sounds like the iPod isn't restoring correctly. Try putting the it into Disk Mode manually and then restoring the iPod again as described in the article linked below.
    Putting iPod into Disk Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1363
    iPod nano (7th generation)
    Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it has a charge.
    Reset the device by pressing the Sleep and Home buttons simultaneously until the display shows the Apple logo. This should take about eight seconds.
    When the Apple logo appears, press and hold the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk Mode.

  • 11.1 - Unwatched TV shows sort by 'Unknown Album'

    I upgraded to iTunes 11.1 on Wednesday on my Mac.
    I had a television show library which corrected displayed and grouped by the TV show title and Season in the 'TV Programmes' > 'Unwatched'.
    I've just added the first file to the library since the upgrade (so hadn't looked at iTunes since), and notice that the view has broken under 11.1 - every single item is listed individually as an 'Unknown Album'.
    It's very annoying. Can it be put back to how it was before please, or is there a way I can do it?

    I think I may have found a solution to this.
    1. Make sure ALL your TV shows have the title of the show (not the title of the episode) in the "Album" field in iTunes.
    2. Make sure you are viewing your TV Shows as "Unwatched" in iTunes. (All the shows should be listed as individually episodes.
    3. Hit command-J (or under the "View" menu select "Show View Options".
    4. A little windows opens giving only one choice which is "Group into Threads".
    5. Select the check box and close the "View Options" window and everything should now be in groups by Series.
    Different seasons are still displayed as separate titles. (i.e. Game Of Thrones Season One and Game Of Thrones Season Two will appear as separate entries but at least the individual episodes within each season are now grouped)
    Also, and unfortunately, everything is sorted by date with the newest series at the top (as opposed to aphabetical) and the episodes within each series (or group) are also listed with the newest episode first (i.e. if the series has ten episodes then episode 10 starts at the top followed by nine, eight, etc.)
    IMO, not a very elegant system and it seems that each iteration of iTunes becomes more and more "dumbed down".  I hope future updates can return some of the sorting controls we've had in the past. (like sorting by colums?)
    Anyway, at least we can have the shows back as grouped series, albiet clumsily!
    Hope this helps...
