ITunes 7.4 - Album Ratings???  How?????

Hi there,
Steve talked about in in the keynote but how do you rate albums in iTunes 7.4?

They're automatically rated, by averaging the ratings of the songs on them. Turn on the Album Ratings column to see them. You can override the auto-rating by dragging on the stars; they will then become solid instead of hollow. Drag the rating to zero to let auto-rating take over again.
Note that overriding the auto-rating will rate all unrated tracks on the album with that rating.

  • HT203167 Single CD to ITunes creates several albums. How can I combine to get album back together

    Transferring a single CD to ITunes, I get 2 or 3 'albums', a couple containing only one or 2 songs from the CD. How in ITunes can I combine these separate 'albums' to get the complete album back under one? Or what do I need to do in "import" set up to make sure CD is imported as an album rather than by artist?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

    How do I download previously purchased albums from iTunes when the album has either disappeared from my computer or the tunes are not playable?  The albums show as purchased on the iTunes store, but not available to download to my authorized device.  I also have albums that appear in my library, but are not able to be added to my iPod from my computer

    When you download something from the iCloud, it is a brand new licensed copy. Your iCloud account just contains a notation that you have this app. It isn't storing an actual copy of the app from your Mac.

    I bought an album in the I Store and it shows there as a Purchased item.  However, I cannot find the album in my iTunes and do not know how to redownload it.  What should I do?

    If you are in a country where music can be redownloaded then it should show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage - that it where you can redownload items (as long as they remain in the store).

    When I download a CD to iTunes, some CD's appear as separate albums. How can I correct this?
    for some reason iTunes appears to believe some tracts are from a separate album. For instance, one recently released Rod Stewart CD HAS 8 tracts on one album and the remaining two tracts on two separate albums, all albums are called the correct album name?

    If your CD has tracks with different artists, or if there are differences in how the artist field is filled in for the different tracks, then you can fix this by identifying the disc as a 'compilation' CD.
    Select all of the tracks in the CD, then 'get info' (control-I), and go to 'Options'. Select 'yes' for 'Part of a compilation'. That should fix the problem.

  • In iTunes 11.0.2.26, an Albums search by track names returns albums as if they only have one track on them, but I still want to access the entire album. How can I have the search results show the entire album (with just the searched for name highlighted)?

    Hello, all.
    In iTunes 11.0.2.26, an Albums search by track names returns albums as if they only have one track on them, but I still want to access the entire album. How can I have the search results show the entire album (with just the searched for name highlighted)? For instance, I'm wanting to play an album with a particular track on it or I'm searching for albums that include that track. iTunes incorrectly assumes that all I'm after is that one track and then incorrectly displays the album as if there is only one ttrack on it. This is a bonkers default setting. Can I change this?

    Click the search magnifying glass and uncheck "Search entire library".
    Type in the name of the track.
    Click the album of interest to show tracks.
    Select the track.
    Press the X in the search box to clear the search.
    Double click the track you want to start playing first.

  • How do I move songs in iTunes from one album to another

    When I copy a cd I have purchased to iTunes to load on my ipod touch, sometimes it might select one song on the cd and make it another album, with just that one sone.
    Also if i have 2 cds that are entitled Collection from two different artists, it loads fine in itunes as separate artists, but on my ipod it mixed the two albums together.
    how can I fix these two problems
    thanks

    You can use your iPod as a hard drive and move the ITunes folder:
    How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
    There is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs but not playlists back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward.

  • I downloaded some albums using my iphone, i then synced it with my PC. Now all the album artwork has gone from the songs i downloaded on my iphone, but not on the itunes on the pc. How can i get the artwork back on my iphone?

    I downloaded some albums using my iphone (3GS), I then synced it with my PC. Now all the album artwork has disappeared off my iphone but not off itunes on the PC. How can I get the album artwork back onto my iphone?

    I had the similar problem last night and found a solution (although it takes more than a few clicks).  Highlight all the album tracks in itunes on the pc and right click "get info". Check the artwork box in this window.  I found that the now playing art was showing up in the itunes window, but on songs that were missing artwork showed nothing in the get info box.  When I replaced the artwork by using the artwork command, or manually adding it into the "get info" window.  It was annoying but my iphone updated every album.

    Never mind, got it to work. I stumbled around on Google for a while and somehow ended up reading things from the 'jailbroken' community. They had easy instructions to get out of Recovery mode. Thanks anyway though!
    P.S. For anyone who experiences this, here is the fix: Hold Power and Home in unison for 6 seconds, then power on as normal.

  • Why has iTunes seperated a album which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

    Why has iTunes seperated a album into indevidual songs, which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

    Steve MacGuire a.k.a. turingtest2 - iTunes & iPod Hints & Tips - Grouping Tracks Into Albums - http://www.samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp (older post on Apple Discussions http://discussions.apple.com/message/9910895)
    Quick answer:  Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
    If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields.  If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.

  • How do I stop iTunes changing my album artwork?

    I do not want iTunes changing my album artwork. I spend a lot of time getting this right. iTunes 12.01 has started messing with this, substituting new artwork and removing what I put there. How do I stop this happening?

    Hi Alan,
    I have always kept this option unchecked. I've looked again just now and the option has remained unchecked. For some reason iTunes 'selected' 4 (that I've noticed) out of my 1775 albums and did its automatic update anyway. I guess this is a bug in the latest version, perhaps during the updating process.
    I've changed the album art back to what I want and will keep an eye on them. I'll feed back to this thread if iTunes changes the art again.
    Thanks for getting back to me,
    Phil

  • How do I get iTunes to organize albums in the order they were released

    iTunes displays the albums in the order of the tile. It should display the albums in the order they were released how are you supposed to do this I've played with sort order and it makes no difference. This seems pretty basic way of organizing an artists music has Apple lost their collective mind with this release of Itunes?

    Why does it absolutely have to display albums by the order they were released?  It can do what the programers want it to do.
    You can sort by album, but then by multiple clicks on the album column header you can get album by artist and album by year.

  • HT1386 i have noticed that the album artwork on itunes in my phone is missing when you open the "album" section of itunes installed on my phone. how can i get my album artwork to show up in the album section

    i have noticed that the album artwork on itunes installed on my phone is missing some of the album artwork when i go to the "album" section of itunes in my phone. How can i get the album artwork to show up

    first of all, no one is going to respond to this becuase limewire is used basically in your situation illegally. But let's say you import a cd, left click on the songs you imported and hit get album artwork, if nothing comes up, the album sn't in the itunes database, get it online. And I suggest never to mention limewire and music files on the same post here, since limewire is a file sharing program. Use Itunes, it's easier. theo

  • How to convert MiniDiscs into iTunes as tracks/albums?

    Hi there,
    from the earlier days of Sony's MiniDisc era I have a big collection of MiniDics around with all kinds of recordings (CD's, radio takes, interviews etc).
    I still have a MD Walkman (Sony MZ-R30) and am using a iMac 27" and a MacBookPro 17" (early 2009) as well as a iPod.
    How could I digitize those MD's into iTunes as tracks/albums with the given hardware, and which additional hardware/software is needed (if any?)
    I really hope there is a way... Thanks for any hints.

    although a little off topic, this post by Zevoneer should point you in the right direction:

    One way is to connect your turntable (through the Tape out sockets of your amplifier) to the audio in socket of your computer and record the input. On the computer you'll need audio editing software to capture and edit the resulting long file into individual tracks that can be added to the iTunes Library. There are a number of commercial programs for this (I use Sound Studio for the Mac but there are many other programs. If want to try out the process first you could try the open source program Audacity which has Linux, Mac and Windows versions at this link: Audacity
    In addition to the software you'll need RCA to 3.5 mm audio plug cables to connect the Tape Out sockets of your amplifier to the audio inputs of your computer. There's a short guide to recording here: How to record from vinyl and cassette to a computer also from the BBC Copying Vinyl Recordings to CD
    You could also have a look at the Griffin iMic which connects to a USB port on your computer rather than audio in and comes with some software of it's own: iMic USB audio interface
