Multiple albums instead of just one

Can anyone tell me why when importing a cd Itunes sets up multiple albums instead of just one?

Hi
Just been having that issue myself!
I tracked it down to the get info data.
Usually I found I had a different artist os the track numbers weren't all correct format like 6 instead of 6 of 10.
Another time the music was classical style in one and blues in another!
As I changed each of the info data each track would then sort of merge with the others until I just had one folder. Then import a picture from google and I was there.
Looks much better.
HTH

  • Multiple PDF's opening multiple windows instead of just one

    I'm using 9.2. I'm opening multiple PDF files.  They are all opening in separate windows.  I would like them to all open in the same window and cannot find an option to make this selection.  Is this possible in 9.2?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?

  • When importing songs from a cd into itunes, the songs get separated into multiple albums instead of one.  How do I fix this problem?

    I recently tried to import a cd that I got into itunes.  When it imported, instead of being one album by one artist, it created multiple ablums by the same artist.  Does anyone know how to fix this problem to bring all the files into one album by the same 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.

  • Multiple SMS instead of just the one SMS??

    I've just got a blackberry curve 8900 and i have a sms problem!
    When somebody texts me, but goes over the characters of 1 text message (normally around 500) ... i get 2 texts =s ... so if someone texts me wusing 600 characters, i get 2 indervidual texts... most of the time its in a muddled up order if its more then 2 texts long... Its hard to explain! My old curve 8900 didn't (up until it'd been sent off to be fixxed)
    Anybody know how i can change it so i get the full text on one message?
    Help me pleaseeeeeee! Its driving me mad!

    It might have something do do with the carrier. I have heard that if you type a long sms from a t-mobile phone to a t-mobile phone, it will come in one big sms message and if you do the same from t-mobile to AT&T or Verizon, it will be broken  up into two or more sms messages.
    Hope this helps you figure out the prob. 

  • Get Info for Multiple Albums message (but only one was selected)

    Please can someone help? I was so full of hope when moving from Windows to the Mac but my hope is rapidly turning to despair.
    I have spent several hours putting many of my favourite music CDs into iTunes. All was going well, but suddenly when accessing the “Get Info” of a particular album in order to add Artwork I got a message like “Are you sure you want to get the information of MULTIPLE items” (my emphasis). (The error message may not be word perfect because I clicked the “don't show again” box and haven't seen it since.)
    But the point is that I definitely did NOT have multiple items selected. There is nothing I can now do to select “Get Info” for a single album, and as a consequence I will never be able to add Artwork again when necessary.
    I looked through the Internet and found references to the com.apple.itunes.plist. However although I can see this using Terminal I cannot find it using Finder! (Why not?)
    What on earth is going on? This is no better than Windows, and in fact rather worse: I tried to delete iTunes, since it is obviously corrupted in some obscure way, with a view to re-installing it. But I can't even do that because it is “needed by Mac Os x”!!
    Please can you help?

    If you get info on an album, it contssts of multiple songs so it is multiple items.
    But the point is that I definitely did NOT have multiple items selected. There is nothing I can now do to select “Get Info” for a single album, and as a consequence I will never be able to add Artwork again when necessary.
    You still can get info for multiple items. Checking the Don't show this again box simply stops iTunes from telling you that you have selected multiple items. It will still get info and edit the info for multiple items.
    I looked through the Internet and found references to the com.apple.itunes.plist. However although I can see this using Terminal I cannot find it using Finder! (Why not?)
    Because by default, Finder searches do not show system files.
    But the "problems" you are experiencing are not really problems (just not knowing how it works) and you don't need to mess with that file.

  • Multiple images selected; rate just one?

    Is there a way in Aperture to have multiple images selected but change the rating on just the primary select? I could have sworn I've done this before but now, if I (for example) shift-click to select three images, clicking on one of them and changing the rating affects all three.
    Regards,

    Edit>Primary Only

    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.

  • AirPrint creates multiple copies when printing just one...

    It's driving me mad. I have a HP1217nfw, AirPrint works, but when I try to print one copy, it prints out multiple copies, leaving me scrabbling for the Cancel button and doing everything to cancel the multiple prints it churns out regardless. This leads to me hitting the printers Off button as the only way of stopping things, which then causes a paper jam.
    Any ideas? I have updated to the latest firmware for the printer, but it's made no difference either from my new iPad Mini Retina or the iPad 2.
    David

    Many thanks to you 'both'   Yes, I had the old version of the firmware which was updated and now has fixed the issue.
    I rang HP tech support about a problem with 10.8 OSX drivers and they told me the printer is no longer supported. Its just over a year old.....
    I could not get any of the drivers to install, then found on another forum that the issue was fixed by installing 10.7 drivers. All is now well, but thanks for this, I was going round in circles.

  • Downloading Full Albums instead of just Playlists

    It would be such a great feature to have if a user was able to download albums directly rather than adding an album to a playlist just to listen to it offline in its entirety. Rdio, MOG, and Rhapsody already do a marvelous job at implementing this feature as well as organizing a user's library of offline material. Any insight on whether this will be coming soon or not would be deeply appreciated.

    Agreed. I listen 99% of my music as complete albums and the lack of some kind of "Offline library" is my biggest gripe with Spotify ATM.
    I have tried making playlists by genre, by artist and something in between, but the iPad's own iTunes-interface is so much more intuitive when looking for certain album by a certain artist.
    Even sorting your offline playlists by artist (or genre, or whatever) would be a start (and yes, you can do this manually ATM, but there is no way I'm going to sort 400+ songs one by one on a touch screen).

  • When I launch firefox 3.6.8 2 tabs open for my home page instead of just one.

    Just installed 3.6.8. At launch 2 tabs are opened, both for my home page. I have closed out several times and relaunched but each time 2 tabs are opening.
    Just looked at the plug-ins listed below and have no idea why I would have a plug-in for Netscape Navigator - haven't used that in years and years and never on this computer. Also some of the others are not recognized. Doubt tho whether any of this applies to my current question.

    1. On the menu bar, located on top of Firefox, select Tools | Options
    2. Confirm you are in the '''General Panel'''
    What is your Home Page set to? You can click '''Restore to Default''' to set the default Home Page. '''Use current Page''' will automatically make the page you are on in Firefox the Home Page. '''Use Current Bookmark''' will allow you to use a bookmark as your Home Page. You can set multiple Home Pages with the '''|'''symbol.

  • How can I set the default in "Write" to display several email address instead of just one?

    Like to see more than one person on the Write screen at a time. The default seems to move the first one up.
    I would rather like to have at least four be able to be seen without any scrolling of addresses. Am familiar with config editor if necessary.

    On my system it was set to the default of 3 address fields. When I went into the config editor and modified the line quoted above to 5 and restarted Thunderbird, the next time I open a Write window I have 5 address fields.
    Only after I fill those 5 fields does the first field scroll up and out of view.
    Yes you can drag the bottom edge of the subject field down to show more fields but this is not permanent. The next time you open a write window it will show the number of fields set in the config editor.

  • Netctl stops multiple profiles instead of specified one

    Hi there!
    Got a problem here.
    When I try to invoke `netctl stop wan`, it stops my `lan` profile too for some reason (eth0 sets link to DOWN and resets IP. Meanwhile, `journalctl` shows only WAN-related log with "down-messages", there is nothing about LAN stop). So I'm tired of annoying problem with managing my wan-connection, while connected through `lan` via SSH.
    Here is my profiles:
    bers@bers-server ~ $ cat /etc/netctl/lan
    Description='bers-home network'
    Interface=eth0
    Connection=ethernet
    IP=static
    Address=('192.168.168.193/28')
    and
    bers@bers-server ~ $ cat /etc/netctl/wan
    Description='PPPoE internet'
    Interface=eth0
    Connection=pppoe
    User='<username>'
    Password='<pass>'
    After=(lan)
    ForceConnect=yes
    ConnectionMode='persist'
    Any ideas? Help please, guys!

    If this is the case, is there any reason why
    a). it is not documented in the netctl or netctl.profile manpage?
    b). the interface name is also required within the file?
    c). it attempts to use an apparently hardcoded default interface instead of failing?
    I really think having to specify the interface in the filename is an unnecessary inconvenience if it's already in the contents of the file. The whole point of me renaming it was to avoid having to type a nonsensical string of characters. The facts that this is undocumented and that the most common case (in which the correct interface is already "wlan0") does not fail for the same reason, make me think it may be a hack, or not intended. I'll file a bug report and see if I can fix it myself as well. That is, unless someone convinces me that it totally makes sense.
