ITunes 11.0.4 compilations not showing properly

Before I import a compilation retail CD, I enter the check mark in the compilation box.  When this is complete, under Songs it now shows Compilations under Artists and the album does show in the Column Browser under Album and I can play any compilation album.  So far, so good. But when I highlight All Artists in the browser and look at the lower section, it will display the individual name, artist and album for each track of the compilation CD mixed in among all the other albums.  I don't ever remember seeing this before.  I thought this would only happen when I highlight Compilations and that's why those type of albums were kept separate.  I thought that was how it used to work or am I having a senior moment?  This increases my artist count from 400 to 600+ which is not really accurate considering it is only 1or 2 songs per artist.  I verified under get info, all songs are marked - part of a compilation.
Am I doing something wrong?  Thanks for your feed back.

You have checked the basic items, like your speakers being turned on, your iTunes volume being turned up, and nothing plugged into your audio jack, right? Things like that?

  • I connect my iPad to my PC and open iTunes, but the iPad does not show up in sidebar.  I want to sync. How do I do it?

    I have my PC on, then plug in my iPad (which is on) and open iTunes.  The iPad does not show up in the sidebar.  How do you get it to show up so that I can select the iPad and then configure the sync settings in each of the settings panes....hoping that these actually show up.
    In the manual it says "log in to your computer user account before connecting iPad".  I am the only user of this PC...does this mean some other user account.  I am confused.  I need "baby steps" to tell me how to do all this....very senior and just learning about this wonderful machine. I will very much appreciate your help.

    If you are the only user on your computer you probably don't have multiple user accounts set up and can disregard that.  If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar.  Now see if your iPad appears under Devices on the left side when you connect it.  If it does, click on the name of your iPad on the left side and your iTunes sync settings options will appear in folders with tabbed headings to the right.
    If it doesn't appear on the left side, follow the troubleshooting steps shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.

  • I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts

    I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts.   All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window".  But what if you have no device window?

    Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
    I thought the libraries were the same.

  • When I open iTunes my iPhone 4S will not show up as a device.

    When I open iTunes my iPhone 4S will not show up as a device. I have tried the advice provided by Apple. I have gone through the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant. That gave no solutions. I have tried the other solutions offered by Apple. I think that I have possibly identified the problem. As far as I know the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is not installed on my computer. I have tried to install it but when I do I receive an error message. I repeat the entire error message in the following paragraph. The message appears in a dialogue box with the name: "Update Driver Software - iPhone".
    "Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device. Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. Apple Mobile Device USB Driver. Access is denied. If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for driver software."
    I cannot find a solution to this problem on Apple's website. How can I get this driver installed?

  • I am using Windows XP on my laptop. Had to format the C drive. I have reinstalled iTunes but I am unable to add anything other than music, TV shows and movies to the iTunes library. It is not showing any option to add podcasts, books, photos or apps.

    I had to format the C drive recently. I have reinstalled iTunes but I am unable to add anything other than music, TV shows and movies to the iTunes library. It is not showing any option to add podcasts, books, photos or apps. These things are available on my iPhone but are no longer there in the iTunes library. Please help.

    In iTunes go to general preferences and check the boxes for those you wish to see in the library.

  • ITunes 11.1.4 will not install properly - windows 8.1, 64 bit.  My only way to recover is to restore my system.  iTunes 11.1.3.8 functions properly.  When will Apply provide a workable update?

    iTunes 11.1.4 will not install properly - windows 8.1, 64 bit.  The only way I have found to recover is to restore my system.  I have unistalled/reintalled iTunes two times.  No success.  iTunes 11.1.3.8 functions properly (following system restore).  When is Apply expected to provide a workable update?

    Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    (The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
    Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?

  • When I sync iphone to itunes, why do my soundtracks not show as albums but via artist?  IE: Pulp Fiction has 16 songs by different artists.  In itunes I can pull up pulp fiction and play the 16 songs.  In iphone sync the 16 songs are seperate

    When I sync iphone to itunes, why do my soundtracks not show as albums but via artist?  IE: Pulp Fiction has 16 songs by different artists.  In itunes I can pull up pulp fiction and play the 16 songs.  In iphone sync the 16 songs are seperate and listed by Al Green, cowboy junkies etc... How to fix this so the ipod part of my iphone will show & play the soundtracks as albums... thanks.

    What is selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    If you have chosen selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres - if Pulp Fiction is available under the Albums section to be selected as an Album to be transferred to your iPhone, is it selected?
    If so, when you select Albums via the iPod on your iPhone, the album is not available there to select?
    You can always create an iTunes playlist with these songs placing the songs in your preferred order.

  • Thai characters not showing properly

    Hi,
    When creating a product catalog in thai language the characters do not show properly. The characters have small aspects attached to them that hover above as you can see here http://www.gte-premium.com but when editing in Indesign the small aspects that are meant to hover above overlap the portion of the character below and are not aligned left to right properly.
    I have tried every thai-friendly font I can find but this does not fix the problem, how can I amend this?
    Thanks in advance

    If you're using a well-made font, you can probably get the tone marks to behave by turning on the World-Ready Composer. It's exposed in InDesign CC and CS6, in the Paragraph menu I think, but if you're using an earlier version of InDesign it's a hidden feature that you would need to use a script or a plugin to turn on.

  • Anychart labels not showing properly..

    Hi all...
    Anychart Version: 5.1.2
    I have a bar simple bar chart which calculates surgeons and their percentage of surgeries.
    x axis: surgeon name (labels rotated to 90 degrees)
    y axis: percentage
    If i am just showing 10 surgeons it is showing properly.
    But if am trying to show all the surgeons (around 100 surgeons on x axis).
    The Flash chart x axis labels are not showing properly
    In this thread..Austin suggested to increase the width of the chart
    APEX Flash Chart labels not displaying
    If i increase the width the labels are showing properly. But the chart looks so ugly with huge width. Is there any other way to show the labels properly
    without incresing the chart width
    In Mozilla filefox i checked the XML returned. In the XML it is showing the labels but in the chart
    it is not showing up.
    Sample X axis..
    The X axis is looking like this..
    s s
    u u
    r r
    g g
    e e
    o o
    n n
    1 3
    It is not showing the "surgeon 2" which is between 1 and 2

    Hi,
    100 columns is a lot of columns. I understand why you are having this issue. I think you have two options here:
    First, you could use a scrolling chart.
    your x-axis custom XML would look something like:
    <x_axis tickmarks_placement="Center">
    <title><text>Surgeon</text></title>
    <labels rotation="90"/>
    <zoom enabled="true" allow_drag="false" />
    </x_axis>Second, you could reduce the font size of the labels on the x-axis to a very small number, so that the text of the label is not wider than the column width. With 100 columns, you are probably talking about a terribly small font size, probably making it unreadable.
    your x-axis custom XML would look something like:
    <x_axis tickmarks_placement="Center">
    <title><text>Surgeon</text></title>
    <labels rotation="90">
    <font size="4" />
    </labels>
    </x_axis>Austin
