Multible album entries in i tunes 12

I am trying to sort out multible entries for the same album but seems to have different artists so splits them into different albums i have tried get info and putting various artists and sorting i have put album name but i still have some that just won't join is there  an easy way for a compilation to all be in same album if it shows as different albums .Thanks in advance Mick

Hey mickeydent,
There is an option to make those songs as part of a compilation by selecting all the tracks in the album, Get Info, and go to the Option tabs and make sure that Part of a compilation is check and set to Yes. Take a look at the article below for more information. 
Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

  • Re-sorting album info in i-tunes

    Hey guys
    Quick question, probably a duplicate but nevermind. When going through the i-tunes set-up, I clicked for i-tunes to auto-arrange my music for me. Little did I know it would arrange albums alphabetically rather than year of release. Eg. Beatles Abbey Rd will appear in I-tunes list before Beatles Revolver even though the latter was released first.
    How do you re-sort this? Many thanks
    Ben

    Try adding the years column into the Library. Open iTunes, right click at the top of any column and in the pop-up box click on Year. If you want the library sorted by year then just click on the Year column

  • Album art on i-tunes

    I have never used Apple products mainly because most of my vast music collection is on WMA files, but recently I have been considering getting the new ipod touch after having learnt that I-tunes will easily convert these.
    Problem:
    I installed i-tunes and put just a few of my music albums across, a mix of WMA and mp3 which transferred ok except for the album art. No album art has been transferred. A lot of my album art cannot be obtained from the sources on-line and quite a lot is my own design.
    At present I use WMP which allows me to paste my own art but I don't see this option in i-tunes.
    Can anyone offer some advice as if this is going to be an issue I will just have to abandon my choice of moving to Apple.

    Thanks for your reply.
    By doing what you say I am able to transfer any album art I created myself as these have been stored as images in my documents. So far so good.
    Now for the next bit. How do I get other art which I don't have stored, to transfer along with the music folder.
    Why doesn't i-tunes automatically include the artwork when I move a music album into i-tunes just as WMP does.

  • TS1717 I downloaded a latin jazz album but on one tune it quit after about 40 seconds and jumped to the next tune.I tried to re download it but that particular tune was only available as an album purchase which I had already done.

    I recently downloaded a CD but one tune quit after about 40 seconds.I tried to download again even if I paid again but this track was not available as a single download only as a complete album and I wasn,t prepared to buy the whole album again since I,d already paid for it.Any sugestions?MAC PHILLIPS

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the problem tracks from your iTunes library, close and then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the "Report a problem" links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • On my mac I have my downloads from i tunes. I have previously transferred thousands of songs onto an external hard drive. How do I show these songs and albums in my i tunes on my mac without adding them to the computer as there is insufficient space ?

    PLEASE HELP ME. I transferred my music library onto an external hard drive as it contains about 30 000 songs. I got a second hard drive as extra security and loaded the songs onto that as well. Both hard drives now contain my music library however when I click onto my i tunes on my mac I am only seeing the music that I have downloaded from the i tunes store that has been kept in the cloud. How do I get my music from the hard drive to be recognized on my mac? Please, please, please help!!!

    To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
    Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

  • TS3212 Why when I download an album do the single tunes disperse among other songs on my ipod?

    Why when I download an album do the singles disperse among other songs on my ipod?

    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.

    I have noticed that most of my album artwork has disappeared because I've upgraded to IOS8. Why is this?

    Hi,
    Try resetting your iPod:  Press/hold the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears. 
    Hope this helps!

  • How to get album illustrations when i-tunes can't find it?

    Hello!
    Anything is in the question, uh?
    Thanks a lot!

    Try doing an Internet search for the album. When you find the cover picture copy it. Then, in iTunes, right-click on the song (or songs), then choose Get Info. Then the last tab should be Artwork. You can then paste the picture there.

  • Deleting library entries without deleting tunes from hard drive

    how??
    thanks...

    Try this on one song so you're sure it works...just highlight a song, and press delete.
    You should get a message asking if you want to delete the file, if it's in the itunes music folder (from itunes preferences).

  • All bought titles and albums gone after upgrading I Tunes

    Hi Guys,
    unfortunately all my recently bought titles and albums from the I Tunes store are gone after upgrading to 10.7.0.21
    Can somebody please help me?
    Thanks you very much...
    Best regards - Greg

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Deleted an i-tune album from de library, how can I get it back?

    Hello,
    I recently bought an album in the i-tunes store but by mistake I deleted it from the library, thinking that it would still be kept in the purchased folder. Before that I downloaded the album to my i-pod but I cant work out how to get it back from the i-pod to the library or purchased folder. Can you help me? Or can I download the album from the i-tunes store again without extra charges? Thank you

    Hi!
    You deleted it from the library. Did you also delete it from the computer? Check your computer for files that end in .m4p Those are your purchased files. It is possible to remove something from the iTunes library without actually deleting the files.
    If you did erase them, then there are instructions around here (search for iPod to iTunes, that should get you the instructions), or as mentioned, third party solutions on iLounge.
    After you get the data back, consider making backups whenever your purchases get to the point that you would not want to buy them again. For me, that's pretty much whenever I buy an album
