ITunes alphabetical track listing using Gracenote CDDB

I have just imported a purchased C.D. to iTunes and it used Gracenote to get the track listings. However, the listing has been put in alphabetical order and not in the C.D. order. I have been into Preferences and checked my settings and all appears to be correct, but the second time I tried to import, the result was the same.
These are the first C.D.s I have done with iTunes 6-I upgraded today-and I want to know if there is a way to return imported C.D.s to the album listing. These two imports are all over my library and my SmartPlaylists and as I constantly burn C.D.s for the car etc, I would like them all together.

Was the CD in the drive at the time you tried to Submit?

Is there a way in iTunes 11 to double click on an album and have the track list show up the way it used to in iTunes 10.7?

I'm talking about Album view where album covers are shown where you used to be able to double click and have it show up in a list view, but now in iTunes 11 there's just a window that pops up with the track list in front of other albums. Any way to get it back to the way it was in iTunes 10.7 where you double clicked on an album and it went into a list view?

Turning your Mac into a clock radio.
1. In iTunes create a playlist that contains just the radio station you want to wake up to.
2. Export the playlist (as .m3u works well). Get Info on your playlist file and look at the Open With entry to make sure it points to iTunes, VLC or some other app that will stream your station.
3. In iCal create an event entry at the time you want to wake up.
4. Right (or Control) click on your wakeup event and select Get Info.
5. For "alarm" select Open File.
6. Now under Open File there will be a place to add the file to open. It will probably be some default entry (like iCal). Click on it will allow you to select "other." Then use the file dialog to select your playlist file.
Your Mac will wake you up at the appointed time. You don't need to keep iCal running. If you want to put you Mac to sleep for the night then there is one more thing you need to do. Open System Preferences to Energy Saver and click on the Schedule button. Check Start up or wake and set the wake up time to slightly before your iCal alarm time.

Can iTunes print CD labels or export track lists?

I know iTunes can print CD inserts, the paper that goes into a jewel case. But what I am asking about is the ability to print a label that would go onto the CD itself. This is useful when I have burned a playlist onto a CD.
Ideally, I would like to print directly from within iTunes.
If that is not possible, I would settle for exporting the track list so I can import it into another program (I have Nero Express) that can print a CD label.
I want to be able to print paper labels or LightScribe "labels."
Thanks for any help.

You are correct. iTunes can print the CD jewel case inserts. It cannot print labels for the CD.
If you want to use the playlist information in another program, just do a highlight and copy from the playlist, and then paste into the other program.
The editing in the Lightscribe program (Sure Thing) is IMHO not too good, so I usually do the paste into Notepad, do the editing there, then copy /paste into Lightscribe and do final formatting there.

When you download iTunes material, does iTunes record the IP used where it is being downloaded to? I am trying to track a lost/missing IPOD Touch and want to know if they have that data.

When you download iTunes material, does iTunes record the IP used where it is being downloaded to? I am trying to track a lost/missing IPOD Touch and want to know if they have that data. It was left on a small street and someone has found it and has been hacking into my account by resetting my password. They took about 41+ dollars from my account. I am hoping the IP it was connecting with to download to it was tracked and that I can get that information to figure out where it is located.

No. From the second link below.

How do you see your Ipod track list in Itunes 7???

When you connect your Ipod to Itunes 7 all it shows is a summary page and not the track list.
How to you see the tracks on your Ipod manually???

Also if you go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and hover the mouse pointer over the iPod backup the SN will pop up.

Why are the 3 tracks I bought on iTunes a yr ago are missing from the track list just imported from a CD of the whole album ?

1st time question on here...I bought 3 songs off iTunes from the album Feedback by Jurassic 5 last year and those songs are in my librabry. Sometime later I purchased the whole album but on CD. Tonight when I imported the CD and it asked to replace existing duplicates and I said yes. Now I have two identical albums of Feedback in my library. One album has the tracks I bought from ITunes the second has all the tracks but the ones I bought from itunes. When I select to play either albums only the tracks listed play not the whole orignal album. How do I correct this? I want one album listed with all the orignal tracks. Also i'd preffer to keep the apple lossless version i imported from the CD - not the ITunes version. Thanks folks

I have a similar problem , where I had a cd I imported then bought a bonus track on iTunes not on the cd but belonging to the same album, but iTunes showing it to me as 2 separate albums.
My iTunes on the computer now shows it as 1 album, but when I sync it to me device it is still 2 albums and the album with the 1 song asks me if I want to complete it.
Sorry I have no solution yet, I just wanted to share that I too have a similar problem.

Getting track listing on iPod to match the ones on iTunes...

Hello. I've never figured out why on iTunes I can manually set the track order of an album, but when I sync it to the iPod the track order never changes.
Just wondering if there is a way to set the iPod track order manually to match the iTunes track order...
Any help will be MUCH appreciated! thanks.

I have manually set the track listing of each song to match the order of the ablums, and that solves the problem on iTunes, but on the iPod itself, they take on an order of their own.
Even when I rip tracks directly from the CD, the problem (sometimes) occurs. For example, on disk 2 of 'Heaven & **** - Live', the first track, 'Computer God' is always last on the album (on iPod), but first on iTunes.
I've already had to make several separate playlists for this problem, and it's become a little annoying... I don't know what else to do.

Can anyone tell me why the track lists overlap once you've printed on the new iTunes update?

I've just updated to the new iTunes upddate, I found out how to print my album covers but why is the track list overlapping? This never happened in the old version, plus why have Apple taken the short cut away when you right click on your playlist. Very frustrating. Does anyone know if there is a fix to this?
Thanks in advance.

I have found a way to get around the print problem, but for anyone else's benefit here is a tip. In the top left hand corner of the screen is a dropdown menu icon, click onto this and go to 'show menu bar'. This brings up the options which appeared on the old version of iTunes. If you want to print your playlist click on 'File' and then 'Print' and this will pull up the print options in the same format as the old iTunes version. The text on the print out shouldn't overlap anymore.
I hope this helps anyone else who has had this problem.

The track listing is incorrect on the REM Warner Bros. Box Set. However, no-one appears to be doing anything about it. Do iTunes or WB even know it's incorrect? Am I the only one who's noticed?

Don,
To be a good citizen, you may wish to contact Warner Brothers and alert them to the error. That will allow them to verify it, and advise the iTunes Store (as well as other music download stores) of the corrections.
You also have the option of advising the iTunes Store directly via their feedback page, but be aware that Apple is unlikely to take a fan's input to overrule info that they received from the label. So contacting WB is probably more effective.

ITunes not accessing Gracenote CDDB?

I'm in the middle of ripping my Beatles CDs and iTunes will not access CDDB. I get an error which simply says (Server Error).
Is this an iTunes or a Gracenote/CDDB problem?

[copied from my reply in your similar thread]
We've gotten the same error at the same time. I guess we need to let this play out. In the meantime, I'm gonna update iTunes.

How do I change my iTunes library from albums listing alphabetically back to artist listing alphabetically. Before the last update to iTunes, everything was listed by artist, now it all is listed by album name. I can't find a way to return it to artist

Before the latest update to iTunes, everything was listed by artist. All albums by the same artist were listed together. Now they are all separated by the name of the album instead of the artist. How do I return to the other format?

Are you viewing it in Artist view or Album view? In Album view, it should still list albums by artist name, then album name. If you're in Album view, you might be looking for Artist view.

AEBS port conflict? Intermittent problem connecting to Gracenote CDDB

Hi all,
I posted a similar question in the iTunes forum, but the more I troubleshoot, the more I think this is an AEBS issue.
Whilst importing CDs into iTunes, I've had difficulty getting the track listing. I've switched WiFi connections (borrowing my neighbour's) and this resolves the problem. Unfortunately, this means I'm not operating on my local network, which is not acceptable.
Still on my AEBS, I make repeated attempts, until finally I'm able to connect to CDDB and get the tracklisting.
What's causing this? I wonder if there's a port conflict that I need to address. Any ideas?
Steve

Hiya,
Resetting the AEBS gave me a temporary reprieve, but it's failing to connect to Gracenote CDDB again.
I tried unplugging a VoIP gateway which is connected to the same router, but no difference. Also unplugged an AirPort Express which I use for AirTunes.
Anyone else had similar difficulty with CDDB??

Fix for getting track names from GraceNote.

Finally found a Windows fix for getting iTunes to get track names from GraceNote (see below). It works!!!
Fixing iTunes CDDB lookup - more details
Since Apple’s forums don’t seem to support permalinks, the hint I previously posted about fixing iTunes for Windows’ connection to CDDB isn’t complete. Here’s how to reestablish connection to CDDB if your track lookups start failing:
Quit iTunes for Windows.
In Internet Explorer, go to Tools | Internet Options, click on the Connections tab, and click on the LAN Settings button.
In the dialog that follows, uncheck the checkbox about using a proxy. Hit OK, then OK again.
Open RegEdit and look for the following key: HKEYLOCALUSER\Software\CDDB\Control\2.0. Delete this key.
Open iTunes and insert the CD. iTunes should now be able to connect to CDDB again—at least, until it forgets again later...
If necessary, reenable your proxy settings.

I followed this exactly and it didn't work!
When I put in a CD and click on Get CD Track Names the "Accessing Gracenote CDDB" box flashes up and then disappears and nothing happens!
Any suggestions???

Resize Track List and Windows

The minimum size of the track list is way to large. I takes up about two inches. I only need 1/2 inch to see the track names. I'd also like to eliminate the transport in some (all?) arrange windows. We're giving up too much monitor space for this stuff. Also, my screensets do not match the ones from v.7. Now i notice that the imported screens don't size to my monitor correctly. The event list is way off my monitor to the right, and needs to be manually resized and resaved.

I want to make a play list of certain folder contents, but when I import them it goes into the balck hole of a library and I find it hard to have to sort through everything to put it ina play list. I just want to add say 10 tracks from a folder in to a play list so I can listen to just those tracks.
Why are you concerned with where the tracks are?
Let iTunes worry about that. Just select the tracks you want, Right click and select Add to playlist and select the playlist you want.
Second I make my own cd's and wonder how do you get the media players to Id your disc so it grabs your info off the net.
Burn the CD on your computer. Since it's an audio CD, it will not contain any info. However, the track info will be remembered from iTunes. In iTunes, select the new CD, then menu Advanced -> Submit CD track names.
This will send the info to the Gracenote CDDB.
When you insert the Cd on another conmputer and select Advanced -> Get CD track names, it should retrieve the info.

ITunes missing from Media Browser -- "open itunes to populate list"

I am on a MacBook Pro 10.7.3 running GarageBand '11 6.0.4 and all of the sudden no tracks will display under Audio in the Media Browser (Photos and Movies still appear). No tracks from either iTunes or GB show up. This is confusing as I have been using GB to make podcast/music mixes for more than 5 years and I haven't changed any settings or done anything different, but now I get the message "open itunes to populate list" or "To see GB songs here, open GB to edit and save your music."
Also, for quite some time I have been unable to go the alternative route of dragging tracks directly from iTunes and dropping them on to the timeline in GB -- that used to work, but mysteriously stopped, so I am dependent on the Media Browser for importing music.
I read thru the forums and tried the advice given to someone this was happening to in Final Cut -- recreating iTunes .xml file. Did that, still no tracks display.
Other advice says to reinstall GB or iLife altogether -- I hope to avoid this, but if I need to go this route, how do I reinstall GB w/o a disk? Can I do it through App Store and will it recognize that I have already purchased it?
I am dying to be able to get back in to my music mix making in GB, so thanks in advance.

you can't, you'd need to find the DVD

no, it'll only recognize your purchase if it was through the app store
